Claudia Winkleman has confirmed that she will host the next series of Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two.

The 37-year-old presenter, who has fronted Strictly's BBC Two sister show since it began in 2004, will return for its fifth run in the autumn.

"I don't know whether I'm allowed to say yes but I'm saying yes to you. I think I will be. I love it," she told DS.

Winkleman, who hosted last night's inaugural Digital Spy Reality TV Awards, also admitted that she pines for the Strictly judges when the show is off air.

"I miss Len and Craig and Arlene and Bruno - I love all the judges," she said. "It sounds completely annoying but we're like a very sweet little family now because we've been doing it for so long together."
