Claudia Winkleman is ready to ‘leave’ Radio 2 if first show is ‘terrible’  

“I might be sick. Not in a bad way, but out of nerves,” she said in an interview with Radio Times. 

“I hope I don’t let everybody down,” she added. 

Recalling how she landed the role, Claudia detailed: “When the main boss called me and offered it to me, I thought it was a practical joke, and put the phone down.

“And then about half an hour later, I thought, ‘Maybe I should call back? Maybe it was real? I don’t know.’”
