Popstars' boys favourite for UK Christmas number one

One True Voice have been made the red-hot favourites to be this year's UK Christmas number one.

The Popstars boy's band are being quoted at odds of 4/6 to be top of the chart with their debut single, a cover of the Bee Gee's Sacred Heart.

Second favourite is Scorpio Rising by Death In Vegas featuring Liam Gallagher.

The Popstars girl band, Girls Aloud, are third favourites at 13/2.

"The race to be Christmas Number One is usually looking wide open at the beginning of December," said William Hill's spokesman Graham Sharpe.

"But this year it looks all over bar the singing, with almost every chart expert tipping One True Voice as a certainty. I cannot remember there ever being an odds-on favourite at this stage of proceedings before.''
