The bookmakers have put odds at 100/1 for retired goalkeeper David and TV presenter Anneka to get the boot.

Former Emmerdale actor Kelvin Fletcher is the current favourite to win the series followed by presenter Karim Zeroual.

The contestants will take to the dance floor tonight for Movie Week.

A source told The Sun: “It was horrible to watch Dianne lying prostrate on the floor. Dev was desperate at what had happened.

“It was a total accident but he felt 100 per cent responsible.

“He was praying that there was no serious damage – the worst case scenario was that she had some internal head injuries.”

On Saturday morning, Dianne assured fans she’s okay and will be dancing in tonight’s live show.

She said on Twitter: “Morning everybody thank you for all the lovely messages of concern.
