Here are some Strictly stats, which may give some clues as to who may eventually win the show this year.
1) After combining the judges scores from week 1 & 2, the eventual series winner has always been in the top five of the leaderboard.
2) With the exception of Darren Gough (who only scored 49 points) the eventual series winner scored a total of at least 55 points from their first two dances.
3) The person with the highest combined point total at the end of week 2 has only won the series twice in 12 years (Natasha in 2004 and Louis, who was joint top in 2012)
The top five at the end of week 2 this year were Peter (1st), Jay (=2nd), Helen (=2nd), Kellie (=4th), Anita (=4th) & Katie (=4th)
The only celebrities to score at least 55 points in their first two dances this year were Peter (60), Jay (58) & Helen (58)
Given that the early leader has a poor record of eventually going on to win the show, history would tend to suggest Peter will not win, and the 2015 champion will either be Jay or Helen.
