Tess and Claudia are fine.
In our household at least, we don't want the show to be about the presenter - whether it's Brucie or anyone else.
Tess is perfectly capable of introducing the dances, getting the judges' comments (and letting all of them speak), and passing the couples on to Claudia.
Ms Winkleman hosts Claud 9 in a warm, somewhat eccentric way, not slavishly controlled by an autocue. We love it.
We're enjoying this season a whole lot more for the absence of BF.
