OHMYGOSSIP — Tess Daly loves it when Bruno Tonioli goes “off on a rant” on ‘Strictly Come Dancing’. The 49-year-old presenter admits talking to the judges after the couples have performed is one of her favourite parts of co-hosting the programme because she never knows what is going to happen. She told HuffPost UK: “I live for Bruno going off on one of his favourite rants. He’s so great… he’s so extra. And I love when I go and stand next to him live to talk to him because I don’t know what he’s going to say. The judges don’t do the dress rehearsal. “I think they’re all great, I love them to bits. I have voices from the gallery sometimes shouting in my ear saying ‘time’s up, move it on’.” Meanwhile, judge Craig Revel Horwood recently claimed he tries to avoid Tess’ “dull” questions on ‘Strictly’, but the blonde beauty – who co-hosts the show with Claudia Winkleman – didn’t take offense as she thinks he’s just a “pussy cat” who wasn’t being malicious when he singled her out. She said: “He’s just Craig being Craig, he didn’t mean anything malicious by it. “He’s a pussy cat, he’s a darling in real life. I think it was taken out of context, a lot of it. He’s a sweetie.” Craig had caused a stir with his remarks when he said Bruno had been “driving him nuts” and then moved on to bemoan Tess’ interviews. He said: “In those 10 or 20 seconds where I have to answer her quite dull questions actually… I tend to avoid them and not answer if I’m super honest. “If there is anyone here from the press, I did not say that.”
