Despite Peter Andre being the bookies favourite to win Strictly Come Dancing, one of the BBC One show’s judge, Craig Revel Horwood isn’t convinced.

Craig believes Peter isn’t ‘up to scratch’ for the crowd’s liking and is at risk of becoming an "also-ran".

According to The Mirror, Craig claims: "Sorry to say it but Peter’s becoming a bit of an also-ran in the competition.

"Technically, he’s very good but he needs to stand out from the crowd more."

The 50-year-old added: "I’d be worried if I were him. He’s missing the ‘It’ factor – and I want to see him fly not fail."

Peter, 42, is partner to professional dancer Janette Manrara and kicked off his Strictly journey by topping the leaderboard.

And although at the time Craig commended the pair as “stand-out dancers” on Saturday they failed to impress and earned only 29 points with a rumba performance to Ed Sheeran's Thinking Out Loud.
