Yeah, okay, this might have been our fault. When booking on the next Doctor Who opened this morning, SkyBet had Ben Daniels at 50 to 1. Then we ran an article stating he was our favourite. Almost instantly he was 20 to 1. Now both Coral Bet and SkyBet have him as their favourite at 6 to 1. It's not[...]
