Claudia, 52, told The Sunday Times: “When people loved the first one we were amazed.
“I said to the BBC, ‘Let’s not do it again.’ I think it’s so chic just to do something once and do it well and then to say goodbye.

“But you can’t take its success for granted. I’ll twitch nervously until January 24, when the series ends.

“I can’t wait for you to see it. There’s something in it that takes my breath away.
“Chairs are tipped over. When everybody’s gone, the crew and I stand there and shake because we’ve just witnessed real emotion, real tension, a real release.”
Earlier this year, millions watched traitor Harry Clark win £95,000 in the second series.
But Claudia said: “You can’t take its success for granted. I’ll twitch nervously until January 24, when the series ends.”
