"Claudia interviewing a mumbling Gavin and then admitting she didn't understand a word he said is one of my favourite things I have ever seen on Strictly Comes Dancing."

lol I agree

I'm not a fan of Gavin but he is a little shy and was probably very nervous.

My OH is accustomed to treating people who don't speak clearly in just the same way. It's very bad manners not to speak clearly in a formal situation. Poor form. Frightfully poor.

I love Claudia. I know she overplays the ditsy persona, but you do get the feeling that she's improvising a lot of the time, so it gives her a spontaneity that Tess, for example, totally lacks. I must admit I laughed like a drain when she said that to Gavin, although I suspect Gavin's fans were not in the least amused.

I thought she was quite rude, and showed a distinct lack of manners towards Gavin

I like Gavin, but I was in stitches when she said that. I love how she just says whatever seems to come to mind. It would be hard to take offence to anything Claudia says - there's never any malice behind it.

She seems to have become somewhat edgier this time around. Quite cutting on ITT on occasion, for example to a dancing coach couple and also about the machine Ian Waite used.

I don't mind so far.

It's amazing that the fans of goofy Winkler will excuse her rudeness at any time, but let a word be said against her and they squint their eyes in fury.

Claudia didn't do anything malicious. I'm Welsh. Gavin had relaxed and he slipped into speaking quickly and with a stronger Welsh accent. It can, be difficult to follow. It's not 'bad form'. Accents are allowed. I hope.
