![]() ![]() So true. I love the fact that in primetime entertainment now, no-one gives a second thought to joint non-male presenters. More. |

I SO agree. Tess and Claudia together are like a pair of gawky schoolgirls. Tess is terrible. Show should now be given to Anton

Tess was employed as a minder for Bruce and a bit of arm candy, a role she fulfilled very well and with great professionalism. What she is NOT is a lead presenter and should not have been given the job.

I think Tess and Claudia a great at their jobs and certainly don't think we need a male/female presenting partnership.
Tess is good at her job and Claudia is good at hers. People might not like their personalities, but if they were very unpopular the BBC would not have let Tess and Claudia carry on presenting its flagship show.. I just feel like saying Tess and Claude are not going anywhere, so suck it up. Oh I just did. |

I think they work fine together.
Tess is slightly wooden, but knows how to keep a complicated live show running smoothly, and what she doesn't do is make the show about HER. Put a big name male 'star' in charge and he would turn it into HIS show, which the show doesn't need, it's a show with a whole cast of stars, the presenters, judges, dancers and celebrities, |

Oh goody. Another 'let's get rid of Tess/Claudia' thread.
In other words. 'I don't like one/other of them and the BBC should listen to me because I know better than they do'. Tiresome. |

Not the case at all, to me a double female presenting partnership doesn't really work, yet BBC are so obstinate and thought it'll be a good idea. It was charlotte moores idea of having 2 female presenters. Trouble is she doesn't make sense in her decision making. Then again she thought the male celebs didn't have a good enough CV to get the job.
It was a good idea and the shows run much more smoothly now. |

We'll just have to agree to differ. |

I don't mind two women at all.
Just not those two. |

Is it Claudia's vagina that irritates the OP when he requests a male presenter?

Tess and Claud keep the show running to time and don't make it about them. And because they're so different in character, they are perfect foils for each other. Another example. Mel and Sue on Bake-off. Brilliant hosts. Just because you don't like one or the other, doesn't mean others don't. (as evidenced by the majority on this thread). And women can vote and have top jobs in industry these days, didn't you know? We're equal to men. Men are NOT better at presenting. You've been sucked into a sociological beleif that this is the case. that's all.

Like Claudia's sense of humour (mostly) and the way the Pros are starting to tease her too.
Find Tess stilted - wish they'd get her a better script writer. BUT I've read that Tess is very good at keeping the show moving in order and, more importantly, on time. She also doesn't get flustered. All important in a live show. Claudia said how supportive Tess was when they both were lowered from the roof. Tess used to keep track of Brucie too. Suspect Tess's talents in the live show are more practical than in presenting - but things would go wrong more often if she wasn't there. ![]() Quote:
But, but they obviously need a man to keep them right. It's too much to expect two silly women to keep one of Auntie BEEB's flagship shows going. Won't someone think of the NTA's?

Not liking Claudia is a valid opinion, although I vehemently disagree. The fact that the quality of presenting depends on what's in any presenter's underwear is just misguided and derivative however!

We had Bruce and Tess with Claudia on ITT. Bruce reduced his hours, no Sunday show so Claudia stepped in. Then Bruce went, it was logical Claudia took over. Zoe is great as well. Any Man/ Man, Lady/Lady can and does work. |

I don't see her as 'wooden', she does a good job of keeping things moving. Presenting a live programme is more difficult than some think but I have never know her get flustered or confused which is quite an achievement considering there are things going on around her and at least one voice in her earpiece as well as possibly someone signalling to her.

Sorry to offend claudia fans but we really need a male and female presenting duo of SCD. Tess is fine, but claudia is starting to irritate the hell out of me. Seems to me the people at the top were too lazy to find a male presenter so went with the tried and trusted option of tess and Claudia. I believe this is the reason why SCD isn't winning at the NTAs anymore. When we had a male and female presenting duo we had NTA trophies, I'd like those good old days to return, but with a male presenter that is suitable for the role.
Some want the old codger back, some don't. (incidentally, I see that his latest "all about me" book published on 24th September with a cover price of £20.00 is already down to £9.00 from its already discounted price of £10.00). Some want a male and female duo, some don't. Some love Tess, some don't. Some love Claudia some don't. There is no "we" when it comes to preferences, so please don't presume to speak for everyone. |
