Has she been asked and refused? Or has the question never popped up?

Admitingly I had a dream she went on the show and (wait for it..............) danced with Craig, yes the JUDGE. Needles to say Claudia looked very nice in my dream, wearing a light blue dress.

one can dream eh? Oh wait, I did.

I think she would be an embarrassment. She's been getting masterclasses from Len for the past six years, and the woman still can't dance.

6 years? Woah! You may have a a point xD

But those masterclasses were only short things. Maybe with full on training? ^^;

I wouldn't exactly call those masterclasses proper teaching. Len shows her one step or move and then she never does it again. With decent training, where she goes over the steps time and time again until she's learned them properly - instead of just spending a couple of minutes on it at most - there's no reason why she couldn't learn to dance well.

But I think she's more likely to do a Children in Need/Comic Relief type dance - like Tess and Terry Wogan did last year - than to enter SCD.

Less than 5 mins every Thurs doesn't really count as lessons.

However she can walk without a wobble on those mega high heels so I think she'd have a chance.

Yes maybe, but after so many years introducing a show about dancing, you'd think she'd pick up some of the moves at least. She's absolutely hopeless on the Len's Masterclass segment.

She has NO rhythm. If you thought Kate G was bad then Claudia would be setting new standards.

And she can't walk in heels. On ITT last Friday she took 'em off to walk to the studio.

Plenty of cringe/laugh value in Claudia's dancing so it's OK by me but I really think you could work with her for months to very little effect.

Does Claudia use the official forums on the BBC? I'd like to see what she says

Yes she does! In fact she's a champ for that. However I don't think you will see outside of the BBC's own forum.

I think she would be hysterical on it! I'd love to see her dance on there. Let's not forget she hams it up something rotten on ITT.

Will never happen though

I would love to see Claudia as a celeb dancer on Strictly. She simply oozes fizz and personality. She would be a breath of fresh air, and would inject fun and vitality into the show. She also has an ability to laugh at herself - so wouldn't take herself too seriously. This season has not been good - it certainly needs a boost. If it were not for Chris and Ola and Matthew in the pro dances, I would have switched off weeks ago.

Claudia is a lovely woman and a wonderful presenter on ITT, but surely it's obvious by now that she has ZERO aptitude for dance. She might be funny in week one as a contestant but I fear the joke could wear thin if people kept voting for her and she was obviously pants with no chance of improvement. It might lead to a Claudia backlash, and we get enough backlashes and 'anti' threads as it is!!!

I think it would be both hillarious and appalling because she'd make Chris Parker look like Chris Hollins! Her outfit would be made entirely from black fringing and eyeliner! They should have her on the Christmas Special.

She's much too popular, she'd definitely win!

And there would be a lot of favouritism from Len too.
