Strictly host Tess Daly debuts sexiest look yet in thigh-high split gown

Strictly Come Dancing host Tess Daly pulled out all the stops for tonight’s instalment of the BBC One competition.

The 52-year-old TV star oozed glamour in a showstopping black gown with a bold embellished neckline.

Tess took to Instagram ahead of the second live show to showcase her daring dress.

The blonde beauty, who styled her tresses in a classy up-do, shared her excitement about being back to host the second show as she penned: "Here we go again."

Meanwhile, her co-host Claudia Winkleman put on a leggy display in a stunning red dress.

The brunette beauty, 49, looked super on-trend as she rocked the red number which featured exaggerated puff sleeves and an asymmetrical hemline.

And it didn’t take viewers long to flock to Twitter to gush over the ladies' sensational looks

“Wow Tess just gets more beautiful every single week. Loving her look,” one viewer gushed.

“Tess looks insane,” someone else chimed.

“I don’t understand how Tess Daly is in her fifties and she looks as though she’s in her twenties. She’s such a babe,” another echoed.

Meanwhile, a fourth swooned: “Yes Claudia! Look at how beautiful she is. RED is her colour!

And a fifth admirer tweeted: “Claudia's outfit is the bomb!!! That woman should be on a runway, not on Strictly.”

The hosts' showstopping looks come Claudia Winkleman opened up about her Strictly pact with Tess.

The pair have made a joint pact on when they will step down from the show.

Since working together on the BBC's flagship reality series, the stars have struck up a close friendship and say they cannot imagine continuing without each other.

Claudia, 49, and Tess, 52, have fronted the show since 2014, after Tess' original co-host Bruce Forsyth stood down.

Lifting the lid on their close friendship on the Is It Just Me? podcast back in 2019, Claudia let slip some details of her do-or-die pact with Tess about when they will both leave the award-winning series.

"Tess and I will leave at the same time," she said. "We’ve made that pact over pizza. We’ll go together, whenever they’re done with us.

"Even if they phoned me now and said, ‘You’re done’, I’d still think I have had the best career possible."

Strictly is finally back for another star-studded season and fans are already hooked.

The hotly-anticipated show features stars such as Dan Walker, Tom Fletcher and Tilly Ramsay.

It's likely that the series will run for 13 episodes much like previous years.

Old favourite judges Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse and head judge Shirley Ballas are all back to share their scores too.
