Strictly Come Dancing's Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman have makeover for latest series
Daily MailWith their slicked-down hair, black-rimmed eyes and tuxedo-style outfits, they look ready to break into a sultry dance number. Strictly Come Dancing's co-presenters Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly had a makeover to promote the 12th series of the show, ditching their sparkly gowns for a more pared-down look Perhaps the biggest surprise is that 42-year-old Miss Winkleman is blessed with large almond-shaped eyes – they normally remain mostly hidden under her famous fringe. Meanwhile, former model Miss Daly, 45, who has taken over 86-year-old Sir Bruce Forsyth’s role as anchor of the popular BBC 1 show, toned down her usually glitzy wardrobe and flamboyant hair. She recently said: ‘That was the first reaction I got – ‘It’s two women!’ But it was almost the last thing I thought of, only because it’s so ridiculous it’s taken so long.’ Launch show: Miss Daly, 45, has taken over 86-year-old Sir Bruce Forsyth’s role as anchor of the popular BBC 1 show. Above, Miss Winkleman and Miss Daly are pictured with the veteran presenter on the launch show Following the red carpet unveiling a few days ago, this year’s celebrity contestants, which include pop star Pixie Lott and tennis star Andy Murray’s mother Judy, are now in training for the first live show Tess Daly has also previously said that she finds it a huge compliment that the BBC had broken the traditional male and female hosting format: ‘I know – two women hosting the biggest show on TV.
