Bookmakers asks: Will Brucie present Strictly again?

Bookmakers reveals odds on whether Brucie will still present Strictly.

Bookmakers William Hill has revealed odds about Bruce Forsyth's future as host of Strictly Come Dancing.

TV legend Brucie is listed as 1/2 to continue as host of the hit show in 2010 and 6/4 to stop presenting it.

It could be a case of the Generation Game for the makers of the show, with judge Arlene Phillips having been being replaced for the younger Alesha Dixon and odds have been revealed for the next presenter of the show.

Vernon Kay is favourite at 7/4, Graham Norton is 5/2 and Paul O'Grady 4/1, while older candidates Ronnie Corbett and Des O'Connor are 16/1 and 25/1 respectively.

"Strictly is still very popular but Alesha has failed to boost the ratings and the producers will need to spice up the show in other ways to compete against the X Factor," said William Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.

Meanwhile, Brucie is 2/1 to receive a knighthood in 2010.
