- Odds of just 1/4 for The Crown to pick up award after more nominations than any other show
- Crown Actresses Dominating Betting for lead and supporting roles
- Josh O'Connor as Prince Charles has a huge 87% chance of Lead Actor win
- Queen's Gambit to add to it's 9 Emmys already
Whilst the 80% probability and 1/4 betting odds given by bookmakers to The Crown winning Oustanding Drama at the Emmys is not the shortest price of the week (That belongs to the 87% chance and 1/7 odds for Ted Lasso to win best Comedy), the British Royal drama looks like a shoo-in for the category according to the bookmakers odds.
With the most nominations of any individual show, 23 in total, The Crown has won 4 trophies so far with a further 11 nominations across 7 categories to come in the Prime Time Emmy Awards this weekend and will be popular in Emmys betting.
The Crown Nominations for Emmys Betting
| Category | Nominee | Odds/Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Outstanding Drama Series | The Crown | 1.25 - 80% |
| Lead Actor | Josh O'Connor (Terra Nullius) | 1.14 - 87% |
| Lead Actress | Olivia Coleman (48:1) | 7.5 - 13% |
| Emma Corrin (Fairytale) | 1.25 - 80% | |
| Supporting Actor | Tobias Menzies (Gold Stick) | No Odds |
| Supporting Actress | Gillian Anderson (Favourites) | 1/14 - 93% |
| Helena Bonham Carter (Hereditary Principle) | 13/2 - 13% | |
| Emerald Fennell (Fairytale) | 33/1 - 3% | |
| Director | Benjamin Caron (Fairytale) | No Odds |
| Director | Jessica Hobbs (War) | No Odds |
Ladies First
No fewer than 5 actresses from the Crown have been nominated for Emmys across the lead and supporting actress categories.
Olivia Coleman playing the Queen in the 48:1 episode and Emma Corrin as Lady Di in 'Fairytale' are both up for lead actress awards. Corrin has an 80% chance of picking up the awards ahead of Coleman who has odds of 13/2 and just a 13% chance with betting sites.
Going one better, 3 of the 5 nominations for all supporting actresses go to The Crown with each of Gillian Anderson, Helena Bonham Carter and Emerald Fennell competing with each other for Emmys honour.
Prince Charles
Josh O'Connor gave a remarkable performance as Prince Charles torn between his responsibilities as heir, and husband. A role played so well as to drag the viewer in beyond return.
As a result, he is by far the shortest price on offer for any award as Lead Actor in the crown and his 87% chance given by bookies would pay only £1 winnings for every £14 staked
High Praise
Whilst the Crown gained the most nominations for the Emmys, it looks to be Queen's Gambit that will scoop most awards with 9 already in the bag and a further 6 nominations for the Primetime awards this weekend.
