The positively addictive and genius hit BBC show The Traitors returned with an almighty bang this January for season 2 and sees viewers following the twists and turns of who is a faithful and who is a traitor. If you are one of the many across the UK tuning in each week, you will be well aware that its dramatic and utterly hilarious host is none other than telly icon, whose dark statement fringe is unmistakable, Claudia Winkleman - whose style is as enviable as her wit and charm.

And while for many people the questions on their mind are the likes of who will be betrayed and who will remain in the game, others are dying to get Claudia's wardrobe as the 51-year-old returns to the series with a selection of country-chic garments styled by Sinead McKeefry.

Having swapped her bright power suits and svelte floor length gowns as seen on Strictly Come Dancing - on which she is co-presenter - for a more relaxed and sometimes mysterious ensemble consisting of a tweed jackets, neutrally toned knits, long olive green, black or navy trench coats, and of course the famous hooded cape, one accessory that is a constant for the star is a pair of 'snazzy' fingerless gloves that can be bought on Amazon - yes Amazon - for £24.99.

As seen throughout the show, her red gloves, often seen in the most tense of scenes, and are made by GSG and retailed on Amazon. Made from sheepskin leather, they are super soft and supple and are available in a whole host of other colours, reports WalesOnline.

And with Claudia Winkleman looking so phenomenal in them (but what doesn't she look great in?), it's no surprise shoppers are snapping these "fantastic" fingerless gloves up.

One Amazon customer said about the gloves: "I have fairly large hands so bought the XL. although they are a little snug getting on, once on, they fit well with a little space and are not tight at all. Popper does up, easily around wrist. They are lovely and soft, which makes them flexible."

Another added: "I bought the medium pair, theses gloves are fantastic. They look snazzy with my bikers style jacket."

A third remarked on how, after some time, the gloves mould to your hands, for maximum comfort, and said: "They fit well. I got a small which are a little tight at the moment but they will stretch with wear. I wear them for cycling and even when I go out for the night to finish my outfit. Comfortable to wear as they mould to your hands after a couple of wears."

Although some weren't too happy on the overall fit of the gloves with a number stating they were too small and "very tight". One, who gave the gloves a two star review, said: "Lovely gloves, shame I can’t get them on. Went by the measurements they gave and ordered an M but they are far too small."

Of course, many fingerless gloves come in a knitted style and so finding the perfect leather contenders that are good quality and don't necessarily make you look like you're about to go on a 10 mile bike ride may prove difficult. So we've had a look at some fashionable alternatives to Claud's pair to help inspire you.

& Other Stories does a gorgeous pair of leather fingerless mittens for £35 while Celtic & Co, from John Lewis, have a pair of sheepskin fingerless gloves with fluffy interiors, for extra warmth, for £75.
