Zoe has made ITT a pleasure to watch, I hope she is back next year, imo she is a top presenter....

I never joined the Claudia worship, but the point is surely that she's done it for long enough and should move on. Zoe has been a huge success

I was perhaps one of few who wasn't apprehensive, although I enjoyed Claudia on ITT, I had a feeling Zoe would be good. But she has been great, even better than I anticipated. Agree also that Ian's input has been invaluable. They would also make a great double act presenting the main show, IMO, but that and ITT as well may constitute overkill, so please keep them together BBC, in one or the other.

I would LOVE to this this, not just because it turns the almost-universal trope of older male presenter with pretty young female sidekick over completely. Zoe would be perfect. Now, who to pick as the fluff...?

I thought Zoe would be good but I've been surprised by how good.

I think she's a really great interviewer, which is a very underrated skill. She puts people at their ease and gets them chatting without having to ask loads of questions.

The bits with Len and Claudia used to perplex me, she literally looked as if she was about to fall over if he let go of her!

I haven't been greatly interested in SCD this year and as a result have not watched a lot of ITT. From what I've seen though I think Zoe is very good. I do prefer Claudia though. To me it is somehow her show and I think she does it best. What I would like to see is Zoe replace Alesha on the judging panel - if they feel they must have someone unqualified but eye-catching.

I've loved Zoe on ITT and hope the BBC get her to do it again next. I particularly love the Waite's Wednesday Warmup but am rather hoping that they might have a tall female celeb next year and will have to get Ian back as one of the pro dancers as the tallest pro at the moment is Brendan at 6'.

Totally agree. I wondered if Zoe could be as entertaining (as in a "bunch of frogs" crazy sort of way) but she has in fact been so much better. I thought too that Claudia was getting a bit bored with ITT last year but this year, ITT has been one of the biggest highlights of the show.

Zoe to stay!

Another vote for Zoe, I have thoroughly enjoyed ITT this year.

Thanks to all ITT team for making a very pleasurable 30 mins of tv every weekday evening for the last few weeks.

Love Zoe and I far prefer all aspects of ITT because of her - she actually likes dance, which I'm not convinced Claudia does.

I really hope Zoe stays, I find Claudia too full of ticks and schtick.

I loved Claudia on ITT, and I never thought I'd be saying this, but I love Zoe more.

I said to OH the other evening that I hope she does the show next year and he said that he hopes Zoe replaces Tess on the main show.

Zoe for me also. She seems to pack so much into the show that is interestsing and entertaining. She doesnt make stupid comments like Claudia did and, as alot of you say, that dancing with Claudia and Len was painful. I suppose there was no point in him doing it with Zoe because she knew the steps.

Please bring her back next year. Dont think I will watch it if they get Claudia back.

I have been very pleasantly surprised. She has always got on my nerves in the past but she has been great on ITT!!

I love Zoe on ITT and I love even more Ian Waite on Wednesdays!

I really hope they keep the same format for next year, but without the ridiculous review of last weeks dresses, erm why do I want a review of the dresses that I've already seen

Sorry, I digress, please Auntie Beeb keep Zoe and Ian for next year

Not me.

I dont watch that often TBH.....it seems as if Zoe is imitating Claudia....everything she says,how she says it,complete with the ramblings are a complete copy. I don't like the Ian section with all the fawning......and I'm already fed up with anecdotes of when she did it,...... don't agree with "more content", how exactly??. The costume bit is :yawn: and she is just as gushing if not more with the celebs.

Claudia for me.

I was disappointed when I heard Claudia wouldn't be doing ITT this year but had got the feeling she had grown bored of it in the last couple of series, still loved her though. I like Zoe so wasn't displeased when she was announced as the new host and she didn't disappoint. However as fifitrixibelle observed, I have also thought that over the last couple of weeks Zoe has been cloning Claudia. She was doing the job perfectly well in my opinion being Zoe, you can't out Claudia, Claudia!

Zoe has been a breath of fresh air on ITT this year and I hope she hosts it in 2012.

I LOVE the dress review

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.”

That's exactly what I was going to post! Including the 'never thought I'd say this' . I'm really curious who the BBC will ask next year, and whether Claudia maybe discussed this beforehand so she'll be guaranteed the job??

Claudia looked bored rigid in the last couple of series. Not surprising really, it was a long stint - and the 'ditzy' stuff had started to become a bit formulaic IMO.

Think Zoe's been great - not easy taking over from someone who'd been there for years. Hope she comes back - with Ian in tow. She's been finding her feet this year and will start to put her own stamp on the show next time out.

What I'd really like to see is Zoe taken off ITT next year and, with Ian, replacing Tess and Bruce on the main show!

As that is unlikely to happen then please let her stay on ITT. Love Claudia, but her zany ways were becoming just a bit same-old same-old each time.

I must agree with most people and I admit I was wary of Zoe taking over from Claudia, but have been pleasantly supprised and hope that Zoe continues to present ITT

I think Zoe is great too. Claudia was becoming a bit of an embarrassment (I still mute her interview bit on the results show ) and it looked as though she was fed up with the whole thing.

Let's keep Zoe next year!

Zoe is awful on radio, but brill on ITT. To use an Alesha style cliche, she's made that job her own.
