What does everyone think of her?

Is she every young lads cougar and milf dream?

I'm just watching her on big fat quiz and she comes across quirky and lovely

    I really like Claudia. She's warm, funny, witty & mad as a box of frogs when you see her on TV, however I also respect the fact that she appears to keep her family life incredibly private.

    Yeah she does. I think this is what endears her to people.

    I think Claudia is fab! She's very quirky and different. Also she comes across as incredibly warm and genuine. A breath of fresh air in comparison to many of today's vacuous z-lebs.

    All this, essentially.

    She's interesting, quirky, witty and intelligent. In a world of identikit TV presenters, she is a breath of fresh air.

    I've always liked her when she has been on tv.

    Can only echo what others have said. Shes fun, witty, quirky and someone you'd love to go down the pub with.
    I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking her and Zoe would be great together as the presenters of SCD

    i think she is lovely. There are a few people on TV that you just connect with and for me, she is one of them. Lovely, funny, great on Strictly with the dancers and celebs. She is warm and hilarious. I am sure she is exactly the same off camera, as when she is on!! Tess seems so false sadly in comparison to Claudia. Perhaps she too is great but she does not come across the same way on TV. She seems to be lost without the prompter and even when "comforting" the celebs, appears false!! Or is it just me?????

    I was a contestant on a quiz she hosted in 2001. She never spoke to me once or the other contestant other than to ask quiz questions.

    She's one of the few female celebs I think would be a good mate and aright laugh. Paloma Faith is one of the others.

    The box of frogs madness seems a bit contrived to me.

    Despite the Daily Fail trying to find something out a few years ago!

    Totally. She has so many "quirks", then she's back to the beginning and off we go again.

    She seems nice enough but I wish she'd do something about the fringe and the makeup.

    I'm a fan because I like slightly quirky, eccentric celebs. She seems genuinely bright and funny too, which is a bonus in a presenter (sometimes they're robot like- I'm talking about you Tess)

    I used to find her really annoying and forced a few years ago, but then all of a sudden I started finding her really warm and likeable not to mention quite sexy. Not sure who's changed, me or her!

    Her mother the newspaper columnist had the same look for 40 odd years. The heavy hair and thick eyeliner even in her 60s.

    Totally agree. I love Claudia.

    Well, speaking as a 22 year old lad, she is probably the celebrity I fancy the most who happens to be nearly twice my age. She's obviously very attractive, but there's a certain appeal I can't quite put my finger on.

    As a presenter though, she's brilliant. Many others who I like tend to have an annoying trait or two (which I concede when it's pointed out) but Winkleman is very versatile and warm. She doesn't have a lot of bad habits.

    She's fine on SCD but dreadful on Film (insert year here).

    I've always liked her (the oddness & quirkiness), and found her attractive too. With the more exposure she's had, I now finding myself warming to her even more.

    A different persona for each of her roles. Not ditzy like her Strictly persona, and not meek like her BBC Film persona. Loses her shine up against real comedians.

    I watched her on 8 out of 10 cats does countdown, and if I'm honest she came across a tad annoying, seemed like a nice enough woman though

    Hmmm yes I see what you mean.

    I think she's quite attractive though but I wish she wouldn't slouch!!

    Think she plays on the quirkiness a bit, but I have no problem with her as a presenter. Which is something I can't say of other presenters.
    She hasn't got a high pitched screech voice or a bad accent.
