There are the ravens leaving the Tower of London, and then we have Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman leaving Strictly. For the past 15 years, Daly and Winkleman have been an unshakeable double act, effortlessly holding the foundations of Strictly together. And now it’s over.

We were always going to leave together and now feels like the right time,” the pair announced on Instagram this morning, signalling that they are due to walk away from the series at the end of this year’s run. That sound you just heard was Anton Du Beke’s trousers creaking in anticipation, but more on that soon.
