Claudia Winkleman for The Claudia Winkleman Show / BBC
Claudia Winkleman has admitted that she feels she does a “bad” job hosting her own chatshow.
The Traitors and former Strictly Come Dancing host launched her own show last month – in the same Friday night slot on BBC One as the popular long-running show from Graham Norton, who is also overseeing Winkleman’s.
“Oh… I am so bad at it,” she told The Mirror. “I said no about 15 years ago. Graham Stuart, who runs the company (So Television) with Graham Norton said ‘Would you do a chat show?’.
“I was like ‘I am not good at that’. I left and then I guess Graham Norton said ‘I think you should consider it’.”
She added: “I started it and I didn’t like it and now I do quite like it, the more relaxed I got. But it is nerve wracking. I probably said yes because of ego, I don’t know.”
The final episode of The Claudia Winkleman Show, which has been tipped for a second series, airs this Friday, April 24.
