BBC Strictly Come Dancing presenters Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman made their first appearance on the live show since dropping the bombshell that they're stepping down .

One cheeky contestant even seized the moment to put themselves forward as a replacement host.

The presenting duo broke the news to fans on Thursday morning in a video message, revealing this series would mark their final one.

Tess has been at the helm of Strictly since its debut in 2004, initially alongside Sir Bruce Forsyth before teaming up with Claudia, who started out presenting spin-off show It Takes Two.

They were back on Saturday for Icons Week and spoke about their departures at the beginning of the programme before the dancing kicked off, reports Wales Online .
