Did anyone else feel sorry for Claudia last night? They are keeping her fit aren't they?

Sprint....

Eleven times she had to do that. And in heels! Can the director not let her do some clip intros from downstairs as well? Or let Paddy do them? We don't want Claud to have a heart attack!

They didn't do that to Cat. She used to do the intro's from side stage, then the vt would play and she'd then be joined by the student...No running and racing involved!

Poor Claud

Does anyone know if Claudia is pregnant? She looked it last night in that tight dress.
If not then its great not to see a stick thin presenter

I was thinking that. Which makes it even more cruel to have her sprinting all over the studio!

If she isn't, then that dress didn't do anything for her...

She is terrible - and she doesn't seem to be that nice to the contestants - surely they could've got someone better!

Claudia always paces forwards, then backwards when doing a link next to Kielty. Drives me flipping nuts all that to-ing and froing. I think she sprints up and down the stairs cos she's got ants in her pants or something

Oi, Mr Coo leave my perfect woman alone.

Yes, leave her alone - she's great and at times wonderfully off the wall as well.

I think Claudia is awesome...I always loved her doing the BBC3 shows so was thrilled when she was moved up to the main thing. Can't stand Patrick but Claudia's one of my favourite presenters ever.

I cannot watch the BBC3 shows with those CBBC presenter type people doing it - but I used to watch it when Claudia was presenting that show

Claudia is a star love her

She had a baby not long ago, I think - unless you're Victoria Beckham, pregnancy usually does leave its mark! Don't think she's pregnant again. I thought she looked great last night, I love her quirky style!

Love Claudia! The rest of them are nowhere near Claudia's great ability as a TV presenter.

Claudia can give them masterclass in presenting particularly to that Cat Deeley!

I agree. She was too good for BBC2 or 3. Great to see her on a main channel. Regards her "bump", some nights I've noticed it and some I've thought it was just a badly cut dress. Time will tell!

The dress seemed to just pull in the wrong place but she is so sexy. I fancy her so much.

she is a top class presenter actually listens and reacts to the answers she is given while maintaining the contnuity of the show
