Claudia Winkleman also co-hosts Strictly Come Dancing with Tess Daly

Claudia Winkleman will replace Graham Norton when he leaves his Saturday morning show on BBC Radio 2.

The Strictly Come Dancing host will front the new programme from February, she confirmed on The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show on Monday morning.

Winkleman will take over the 10am-1pm slot in February. Norton will present his final show on 19 December after a decade with the station.

He is joining Virgin Radio to present a new show on Saturdays and Sundays.

Norton tweeted: "Congratulations Claudia Winkleman, you'll love it!! Welcome to BBC Radio 2 Saturday mornings!!"

Ball responded to the news with a simple but effective "Wahooo".

Drivetime host Sara Cox said it was "the BEST news", adding: "As a massive fan of Graham I was a little wibbly of belly about who was taking over his Saturday morning show so absolutely over the moon & thrice round Uranus that it's Claudia Winkles.

"Funny, very smart, witty, great interviewer - perfect choice."

The BBC confirmed Winkleman would present her new show throughout the year - including the months where she also presents Strictly on Saturday nights.
