Claudia, 53, has just wrapped work on the third series of The Traitors, overseeing the game as finalists Leanne Quigley and Jake Brown took out Traitor Charlotte Berman for a Faithful win. Their victory spelled bad news for fellow Faithfuls Frankie and Alexander, who were both banished after Charlotte had gone – serving as collateral damage to a still-suspicious Leanne and Jake.
The outcome may have been in doubt for a while, but one thing has always been consistent – host and fashion icon Claudia Winkleman, sporting magnificent bangs and a glowing spray-tan. Everyone has to start somewhere though, and a throwback video has emerged of a younger Claudia, sans her trademark look.

And, as the show’s finale beckoned, her old university shared a playful look back at Claudia’s time as a student model. Posting to their Instagram page, Claudia’s old alma mater – Murray College, in Cambridge – shared a video of their famous alumnus, featuring in a news report from 1992.
