Claudia really does add to my enjoyment of Strictly I love her humour and she really does an excellent job with making the pros and contestants feel at ease. I think she's one of the best presenters around today. What do you think?

She is a diamond in a sea of personality-void robot presenters.

Adore her!

My family loves her too. But put your tin hat on Dave, some people on here dislike her intensely and take it as a personal insult if anyone disagrees with them so prepare yourself for INCOMING!

Yes, a superb gymnast and a half decent dancer.

I think her level of intelligence and occasionally acerbic wit, "but in a good way," is a bit of a threat to some of those less gifted.
"Crashing on...."

I love her, too. I don't understand the dislike towards her. I dislike Tess, mind, I find her plastic, unspontaneous, and too reliant on the autocue. I think Claudia adds to the show, otherwise there's a real risk it would be dull.

Her jokes and gags on Halloween week did actually make me laugh out loud. Her delivery is very good, even with crap jokes.

Oops, I spoke too soon.

I think that's it. I don't mind Tess or anything, I quite like her but she does seem to be there just to keep things running smoothly - nothing wrong with that at all. But Claudia is more interesting, her humour really comes through and she can be unpredictable.

Haha I'm prepared I think she has great comedic timing. I love the Clauditorium.

Sorry to rain on your parade but I find some of her humour a bit childish especially when shes with Tess and comes out dressed up in something. She isn't too bad in the clauditorium and I don't dislike her but some of her humour passes me by.

Puts on hard hat and exits stage right

This thread is about Winkleman not Fragapane.

I think she's amazing. A welcome break from Tessbot. It was awful when you had the Bruce/Tess combo as I don't like either of them! I must admit, I love how the BBC (which critics deride as safe, boring, sexist/ageist etc) has its main show anchored by two middle-aged women and a judging panel with a combined age of about 230.

I am a Claudia fan but NOT on SCD where I think she comes across merely as childish and silly.

Agreed, phony Tess oozes insincerity from every pore.
