DH says no way and I’m not that keen.
I might actually wait and see the Feedback on GN.

Absolutely agree. Give her a chance for goodness sakes. She was great in Traitors. I also love the Friday and Saturday night interview shows, I don’t always recognise the guests but I then look out for them. I’m looking forward to it. C’mon give her a chance! 🫶🏼

Won't be watching, just not keen on her as a presenter. Apparently, the fringe is her comfort, security blanket. Gave a story to some magazine as a joke that it was to help with poor eyesight.

She does have poor eyesight but the fringe can't be helping!

I’m not a reality tv fan. I watched celeb traitors to join a family WhatsApp group set up so several households could watch together. I surprised myself by enjoying it. Claudia was very watchable, camping it up and wearing fantastic outfits

She was just wrong in Crufts.

BlueBelle - Claire Balding is on my national treasures list 🌞. Perfect for programmes on walking in the countryside, anything with horses or dogs. Her calm approach and behaviour just what the dogs at Crufts need. Well that’s my thing

I like Claudia so we'll be watching. My OH doesn't like her but he'll probably fall asleep anyway so it doesn't matter grin

I liked her on Crufts, she doesn't take herself too seriously. Such a contrast from Clare Balding.

Iam64 Thu 12-Mar-26 18:49:46

I’m relieved she wasn’t leaping around agitating my dogs

Her hair is abnormally glossy I think! Her hair used to be brownish and scraggly so she must have a hairdresser following her around. I'm sure I read that she was cutting down work to spend more time with her family and is very wealthy so doesn't need to work. I think the fringe is a way of hiding behind a mask. As for watching the programme I'll wait and see if there is a guest I'm interested in.

Totally agree

JamesandJon33 Thu 12-Mar-26 19:24:37

Might be a wig !

Sparklefizz Thu 12-Mar-26 20:24:04

I love Claudia. She's self-deprecating and witty. I'll give her a chance.

JPB123 Thu 12-Mar-26 21:08:54

I love Claudia.She is so funny .She isn’t to be taken seriously.

I do like Claude but not her fringe and she wasn't a good choice for Crufts.

Indeed she wasn't. Fish out of water.
Shame.
I hope her chatshow goes well but I won't be watching it.
She seemed strangely lightweight at Crufts without the considerable scaffolding of Strictly Come Dancing and its team.

No. I don’t like celebrity shows or reality tv

Nannan2 Thu 12-Mar-26 22:21:01

No.Cant stand her either.And i think she wears a wig😆

I don't know why that's funny.

Some people wear a wig or hair system because they have lost their hair. One of our Gransnetters does. I'm not saying that is the case with Claudia but you don't actually know that.

coco20 Thu 12-Mar-26 22:54:47

I'll give it a watch. Claudia is great on 'The Traitors' and I think she would be great to talk to. She's got a sense of humour and comes across as a genuinely nice lady.

Mojack26 Fri 13-Mar-26 05:07:41

No, cannot stand her

Mojack26 Fri 13-Mar-26 05:10:03

Fancythat...totally agree and neither was Ellie Simmons.

Calendargirl Fri 13-Mar-26 06:46:05

I assume her hair is coloured, don’t think she was always so dark. (Nothing wrong with that, of course).

Like most of us, probably grey underneath, but maybe a very glossy grey.

Aveline Fri 13-Mar-26 08:39:36

My recorder is set. It should be great fun. I gather Jeff Goldblum is on. Good.

Not sure a shampoo brand would pay someone who wears a wig to advertise its product.

J52 Fri 13-Mar-26 10:01:53

I also like her, I’ve seen photos of her without the make up and obviously her own hair. It looks like it does on TV without the shine and the fringe was in disarray.
Claudia’s dry sense of humour appeals to me, particularly her asides.

Allira Fri 13-Mar-26 10:50:11

My word, there are ways and ways of saying a programme or presenter might not be to your taste but this goes way beyond that 😲

Georgesgran Fri 13-Mar-26 11:03:10

Not keen on her either and agree that both she and Ellie were totally unsuitable for Crufts.
I wasn’t going to bother with her show until Aveline posted she has Jeff Goldblum as a guest. He’s my (not so) secret crush, so I might watch - but just for him!

Thank you for your sensitive post Allira.
