After announcing her Strictly exit, the presenter is said to be in advanced talks about her own chatshow
The glossy raven-black fringe, heavily kohl-lined eyes and orange tan combine to make Claudia Winkleman’s one of the most distinctive faces on British television.
Add to that her undoubted acumen when it comes to making bold moves and it can be no surprise that Winkleman is said to be in advanced talks for the next step in a broadcasting career that has been as dazzling as the Strictly glitter ball.
After the shock announcement this week by Winkleman, 53, and Tess Daly, 56, that they would be quitting as co-hosts of Strictly Come Dancing at the end of the current season, she is now, it is said, poised to land her own chatshow.
According to the entertainment news site Deadline, the show will be made by So Television, the company behind The Graham Norton Show. Though a deal has not yet been finalised, Deadline reported that talks were at “an advanced stage”, with the idea that it will broadcast when Norton’s show is off air.
