The bookies expect that Jamie Laing will return to Strictly Come Dancing in 2020 after his premature departure from the show this year.
The Made In Chelsea star was forced to pull out of the current series due to an injury sustained during the first group dance, with Emmerdale actor Kelvin Fletcher roped in to replace him at the eleventh hour.
But Paddy Power reckons we havent bid farewell to Jamie on the Strictly dancefloor forever and are tipping him evens to make a dramatic comeback next year.
Speaking to Metro.co.uk, Paddy Power said: A lot can happen in a year, and our traders believe Jamie Laing returning to Strictly wouldnt be a surprise.
Hes short-priced to feature on next years edition of the show, hopefully next time he will manage to stay injury-free and not pull out a couple of days before the launch.
Jamies showbiz friends have also sparked speculation that hell be jiving back onto the dancefloor next autumn.

As I did the first dance. As I kicked off, I felt a pop and a searing pain in my foot, Jamie said.
So I saw the physio and we have to wait for an MI and see what happens. Theres definitely swelling so theres definitely tissue damage.
Another video then showed him hobbling on crutches and he broke the sad news to viewers.
Hello everyone, I just wanted to give everyone a quick update on my foot, he said. Now because of the injury it means Im going to be in a boot for eight weeks recovering which means I wont be a part of the show.
