When it comes to live television, Claudia Winkleman is usually professional, but the veteran presenter demonstrated that even the best in the business can err.
Claudia Winkleman, the host of Strictly Come Dancing, made a mistake while speaking to Nigel Harman and Katya Jones following their performance on last night’s inaugural program.
The evening’s final celebrity dancer for the BBC competition, which is back for its 21st edition, was Nigel, a former EastEnders actor.
He performed a sensuous Pasadoble with Katya, earning eights from all four judges to end with the highest ratings of the evening.
Claudia congratulated them for finishing first on the leaderboard after their dance. That is Katya’s best week one score ever.
But Claudia misreported the facts, and a moment later, she said, “Oh no it’s not… OK.
She made an attempt to ignore the mistake and carried on with wrapping up the show.
Layton Williams and Nikita Kuzimn, Bobby Bazier and Dianne Buswell, Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola, and others who scored 29 points all finished just behind Nigel and Katya.
Following the success of their viral dance, Katya shared the following message on social media: “As I sat down to design my next dance, I decided it’d be wrong not to take a moment and honor @themeditatingactor, aka Colin the Paso God!

Last night, when I saw all of our participants take their first steps on the live program, I thought, “Jeez, it must be absolutely terrifying!”
It is, she continued. Therefore, I commend you, partner, for what you were able to accomplish on Saturday night. Enjoy the moment; it’s one that you richly deserve.
It’s just the beginning, the Russian expert continued. And given the nature of this program, we’re going very quickly. I will now begin choreographing our upcoming dance.
No one was eliminated from the show during the first week, but starting on Saturday, the celebs will compete for the Glitterball Trophy.
Fans are excited to see what costumes Claudia and Tess Daly will be wearing when they return to the screens to host the live program the following week.
Fans were not pleased with the pair’s choice of clothing when they decided to match in monochromatic shirts and pants this past weekend.
Tess’ PVC pants have been compared to “bin bags” and “fishing waders” by some.
