TELLY host Claudia Winkleman struggles to see her fringe benefits as she’s sent up by a selection of TV stars for Comic Relief.

The 51-year-old co-host of Strictly Come Dancing has recorded a skit with TV chef Mary Berry, 87, and comedians Dawn French, 65, and Jennifer Saunders, 64, who all sported their own versions of Claudia’s trademark hairstyle.

The sketch, to air on March 17, parodies her hit BBC show The Traitors.

This year’s Comic Relief Red Nose, was created by ex-Apple design guru Sir Jony Ive, 56.

The charity’s founder Richard Curtis, 66, said: “We got 12 people around the table all wearing these cowls and then during the course of the seven minutes of the sketch, they’re going to slowly be revealed – and I can reveal some now.

“French and Saunders were there fooling around. They’re just so funny together.”
