The Celebrity Big Brother party will be over for former S Clubber Jo O'Meara on Friday, according to bookies. The blonde Essex girl is at odds of 1/8 to get the boot in a double eviction on Friday, with former Miss Whiplash Cleo tipped as the second to go, on 5/1. Grumpy A-Team star Dirk Benedict might not be far behind them on 8/1. Ladbrokes spokesman Nick Weinberg said: "Jo will struggle because of her involvement in the massive row which engulfed the house. "She may have been granted a stay of execution had Danielle been nominated, but she's got to face the music alone. "Cleo's been about as funny as toothache, but Jo's treatment of Shilpa means she's odds-on to go," he added. Meanwhile, Shilpa Shetty remains firm favourite to win the show despite being among the five eviction nominees. The Bollywood beauty is currently on odds of 1/3 to win ahead of Michael Jackson's older brother Jermaine, on 9/4. If Shilpa wins she will cost bookies more than £2 million - more than any other housemate in the history of Celebrity Big Brother, said Ladbrokes. "A win for Shilpa would be a catastrophe for the bookies. She was well supported even prior to the row. But she's added the pity vote and looks unstoppable," Nick added.
