Claudia Winkleman has been named as the new presenter of Film 2010, succeeding Jonathan Ross, the BBC has announced.

The star, who currently has her own weekly arts show on BBC Radio 2, said: "I am completely over the moon about being given this enormous honour."

The long-running BBC One show, which started as Film 71, was presented by film critic Barry Norman for many years, with Ross taking over in 1999.

TV presenter Winkleman will begin her new role in September.

"Everyone has an opinion on film and I'm looking forward to debating the biggest news and releases with a whole variety of guests each week," Winkleman said.

"I am incredibly proud to be to be presenting the new look Film 2010. It's an honour to follow on from the brilliant Jonathan Ross.

"I have been lucky enough to cover the Baftas and present the UK broadcasts of the Oscars and the Golden Globes for years and now to be able to work with the producers on Film 2010 is just amazing."

Winkleman told Richard Bacon during his show on BBC 5 live show that she still "can't quite believe it".

The presenter said she had spent the last 10 years telling BBC bosses what a big fan of the show she was and is grateful that she lives right next door to a cinema.

"When we were looking round our flat the estate agent said, 'problem is you're going to be next to a cinema, so four times a day there's going to be a long queue of people out here buying popcorn'. And I was like, 'I don't understand the downside.'"

She also explained that the format of the show would be changing slightly.

"And also, just so people don't panic, it's not just me, because that would be horrifying. So it will be brilliant critics and all kinds of people sharing their knowledge, because I'm rubbish on horror."

Ross announced in January that he would be leaving the BBC after 13 years.

The star's contract with the corporation expires in July.

Who knows? Maybe one day they will actually get a film critic to present the show again.
