STARS who left the BBC for ITV have beseeched Claudia Winkleman to join them in the darkness.
The presenter of The Traitors is considering jumping ship to the commercial broadcaster where she will live on forever as a shambling mockery of her former self.
Good Morning Britain presenter Susanna Reid said: “They will give you whatever you want, Claudia. No matter what.
“They told me I would never age, and I never will. But they didn’t tell me the terrible, terrible price.”
Jonathan Ross, who presents a terrifying Saturday night chat show from his coffin flanked by the cavorting skeletons of Trinny and Susannah, said: “Sign the contract, Claudia. No, not in… ink.
“You’ll need to use something a little more… vital if you want that money. There’s a cut-throat razor on the desk, next to the quill pen.”
Des Lynam, who now lives in the sewers still wearing the make-up from his final contractual appearance as CITV’s Happy Des the Clowny Clown, said: “Float some programme ideas, Claudia. Oh yes, they’ll float.
“We all float down here.”
