Tess doesn't need to be hugely engaging or witty. That's Claudia's job.

The only thing irritating about Tess is that after all this time on the show, you'd think she'd have enough basic respect to pronounce Ola's name correctly.

If Tess were ever sick and unable to present the show it would be interesting to see Zoe stand in for her so we could see a Zoe/Claudia partnership.

I don't particularly like Tess, but it would be much better if she was sent oopstairs, and Claudia took over with the judges.

The vast majority of the viewers are thankful that it's not your decision.

And, if Claudia were ever sick and unable to take up her position in the Clauditorium it would be interesting to see Zoe stand in for her so we could see a Zoe/Tess partnership. The Clauditorium could become the Ballroom for the night.

No. A hundred times.

Don't mind Ms Sycophantic on ITT (watch for guests, not her).

A dog turd could replace Tess and it would be an improvement.

Various polls in national newspapers and on websites show overwhelming support for Claudia. Comments and approval ratings for positive comments on national newspaper websites show overwhelming support for Claudia. Discussion forums (whether entertainment based like DS or whatever the shared interest) show overwhelming support.

Cumulatively these suggest that far more people are very happy with Claudia's contribution that those that aren't, be they ever so vocal.

I am not interested enough to look for polls or ratings, but as long as I have a say I will keep on saying she is not rated by me....

If Zoe replaced Tess, I might actually stop watching.

Although I watch ITT, I don't enjoy it nearly as much as when Claudia presented it. Zoe is lovely, but she's not a good presenter and really gets on my nerves on ITT (actually on the radio too). She speaks far too quickly and only has half an ear to what the other person is saying.

Never being one for fast forward through a show like SCD, I suspect it would be the last straw for me Zoe took over from Tess or Claudia.

Plus I think Tess and Claudia are fantastic together and will only get better too.

I hoped that when Bruce left we would lose all the "look they are on their feet for you" "oh how fantastic was that" but sadly no, Tess just seems to be a female version of Brucie & that isn't what scd needed. Plus she always seems to be "grabbing" for peoples shoulders or hands & I have now noticed that some contestants don't stand as close as they did!
IMHO they should swap over occasionally and give Claudia a chance on the dance floor with the couples she is genuinely funny & seems to be very popular with everybody.
Still no one seems to listen as bloody Alison is still galumping around, time to thunder off soon SURELY!

That's a bit harsh - names don't come out the same with different accents. Have you heard Gordon Brown say Malala or any American say Djokovic?

I'm from the same place as Cess, and I can manage to pronounce things properly.
