Wynne Evans is favourite to leave Strictly Come Dancing on the upcoming Blackpool special, but he could benefit from a series pattern. While it may initially seem like totally bad news that Wynne and his professional dance partner Katya Jones had to face Shayne Ward and Nancy Xu in the latest dance-off, there is an unexpected benefit.
