I've enjoyed ITT so much more this year with the refreshed format and new presenter. Anyone know if Zoe is staying on for next year?

I hope so too. Claudia is stale with the programme too and I have found her too ego centred and not really that interested in the actual dancing

i third that! Zoe has been a breath of fresh air and has reinvigorated the show. She's so quick and funny and quite smutty! Love her!

I loved Claudia... I was gutted when she left this time round and was very concerned Zoe would take away what I loved about the show...

But she hasn't!!!

I love her!!! She's kept it light and fluffy, and her partnership with Ian on wednesdays is one of the highlights of my week.

Never thought I'd say this but I want Zoe back, not Claudia.

Zoe, YOU ARE GREAT.

Let's hope the success of this year's ITT means you either returns next year or you'll be doing much more SCD-related reporting/hosting in 2012's series.

I'm hoping for Holly to take over and present every show with half a fag hanging out her mouth whilst refusing to move from the sofa.

And then see flies landing on her lips?

If she really needs to move, Artem can wheel her around on castors like he did for the Agrentine Tango. I hope they rename the style section "Well That Dress Was Shit".

More content gets fitted in with Zoe driving, she's better technically and she doesn't wander off on random rambling tangents. its also been interesting to see someone who has done it all before and can dance (I think better than anyone this year) talking about show pressures and technique and asking questions. And that also shows up in her pieces with Ian where they both speak the same language and can do the moves. That was far more interesting than watching Claudia being taught how to do the same move badly time and time again by Len.

Agree with everyone's posts When I heard Claudia was leaving I was gutted as I thought the show just wouldn't be the same, and it's not, it's actually better!

Big thumbs up for Zoe from me and I really hope she's back next year!

It was amusing to watch at first, but it gets more and more tedious and when Claudia still couldn't get it (like last year), and Len getting increasing frustrated, it just gets more and more uncomfortable and embarrassing to watch...

Yes, I agree absolutely.
Ian is perfectly lovely and needs to be kept in with Zoe
That she was his celeb partner gives them the easy, friendly and humerous personal chemistry too ...

We like this version of ITT

Hear, hear!!

I have absolutely loved watching ITT with Zoe. Like a lot of people I was sad to hear that Claudia wasn't going to be hostirng this year but Zoe has surpassed all expectations.

Zoe to stay

I agree Zoe is very good
I hope the production team will not be tempted to swap her with another celeb who has been on the same journey

It struck me that for the production team it is a way of keeping it fresh without to much effort

It is also another way of protecting themselves against an unexpected Sir Bruce retirement and grooming their prefered presenter for Bruces job if & when he decides to walk

Having said all that I restate I prefer Zoe to remain on ITT but the SCD publicity machine has a track record of making daft decisions to hit the headlines to boost the ratings

I also was a bit apprehensive about Zoe but I've really enjoyed her on ITT, especially with Ian on Wednesdays.

How about Zoe replacing Bruce, and a male dancer (pro or ex-celeb-contestant) doing Tess' bits?

Prefer Zoe and really hope she returns next year. She seems to manage to keep the guests from going off on a tangent better and appears less worried by anyone being slightly controversial. Claudia seemed to get into panic mode if someone was not saying the right thing.

Zoe is a superbly professional presenter - she makes what is very difficult look easy. A wild child made good - I'd adopt her as a daughter any time.

Zoe has been great this year. I really enjoyed Claudia when she was on ITT (and still do on the results show and film review) but Zoe has fitted into ITT like a charm and I wouldn't want to see her replaced.
