As the reality TV scene is relatively quiet at the moment, the Novelty Betting market has to look elsewhere to encourage its followers to have a flutter. The Royal Family is always likely to attract attention and the lives of the young Royals particularly can command an audience so now , if you think Prince William is about to get officially engaged this year, you can bet on it!
Bookmakers Paddy Power are offering a range of gambles around the love lives of both Harry and Zara Phillips and even offer Odds of 8/1 for Charles to be king in 2010. The Queen is no spring chicken but with longevity on her moher's side and with a full diary of official events tabled for this year, this is more a speculative view of old age than a representative bet on a woman in ill health.

For the wild Prince Harry to settle for his first big romance and get married to his South African girlfriend Chelsy this year seems very unlikely but odds of 12/1 would suggest that Paddy Power's people feel that he is moving into a calmer more settled place in his life. William and Katy making it official this year seems much more likely and would certainly generate the sort of good feeling across the nation that might be required after the dryness of a General Election.
Rugby player Mike Tindall is already engaged to Princess Royal's daughter Zara Phillips, so they are a step closer than the others to actually tying the knot, which is reflected in Odds of 3/1 and Tindall might well enjoy taking some limelight from the England footballers in the summer. The bet which reflects or anticipates the worst 'annus horiblis' for the monarchy is that Prince William will be king in 2010. This would require the Queen's death or abdication as well as Charles' death or stepping aside either of which constitutionally or historically would be rank outside scenarios!

William and Kate to officially announce their engagement in 2010 6/5
Zara and Mike Tindall to marry in 2010 3/1

Charles to be King in 2010 8/1
Harry and Chelsy to marry in 2010 12/1
William to be King in 2010 33/1
