Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman have reportedly agreed deals keeping them as the hosts of Strictly Come Dancing for the next two years.
The duo have worked together on the ballroom contest - a ratings hit for the BBC every autumn - since 2014, although Daly has been a host since the show started in 2004, initially alongside the late Sir Bruce Forsyth.
According to The Sun, Daly will now get to celebrate her 20th anniversary on Strictly in 2024 after both she and Winkleman signed new two-year contracts.
"Beeb chiefs absolutely love Tess and Claudia and wouldn't dream of ever losing them," a source told the newspaper.
"They are especially proud of the fact that they have two women hosting a show on a Saturday and Sunday on primetime BBC One. It is an enviable position to be in.
"Strictly's leading ladies may command a high price, but the Beeb view them as great value for money given how popular they are with viewers.
"In the nine years they've been fronting the show, Tess and Claudia have become synonymous with the programme and bosses couldn't contemplate them not being its presenters.
"Which is why execs are so keen to sign them up for another two years and ensure they don't get poached by a rival broadcaster for their big shows."
Strictly returns on BBC One this September.
