Dancing On Ice glides onto screens on Sunday, January 15, with a supercomputer forecasting former The Wanted singer, Siva Kaneswaran, will win this year’s series. The BonusCodeBets supercomputer – which correctly predicted 33/1 outsider Hamza Yassin would win Strictly Come Dancing 2022 – has determined this year’s champ by analysing characteristics of past victors, concluding that the most likely winner is a 30 year old male actor, with an international skating partner.
Boyband star Siva (15/2) is fifth favourite with the bookies, and at 34, is the closest match to past champions thanks to his gender, age and the profile of his skate partner. Olympic bronze medallist, Nile Wilson, the current bookies favourite (3/1), will be looking to defy the supercomputer when he takes to the ice.
Whilst actors are the most successful on the ice (with 43% of previous winners having come from an acting background) Siva can take solace in the fact that three singers have already been crowned champion (23%) – the last being Sonny Jay back in 2021.
