Conclusion
Bookmakers
William
Hill have already
paid out £50,000 on Dame Helen Mirren winning the Best
Actress Oscar and are now in fear of a total trashing from
punters after a last minute gamble on Peter O'Toole and
Little Miss Sunshine.
Peter O'Toole was
especially popular before the close of betting backed down
from 10/3 to 2/1 to win the Best Actor Oscar and Little Miss
Sunshine finished joint favourite for the Best Film Oscar
with The Departed at even money.
The bookies have also seen
money for one of their specials; that any of the Oscar
acceptance speeches to take longer than five minutes at
33/1.
"We resigned ourselves to
losing on Helen some weeks ago but are desperate to get
Peter O'Toole and Little Miss Sunshine beaten or this will
be our worst Oscar results ever." said William Hill's
spokesman Rupert Adams.
