Flip, it was written before we were exposed to the delights of the Charleston. Edit; and Lindy..
I think some genius peep on the Non App thread did a description but it needs to be searched for and I haven't time right now, but no doubt somebody will find it. Adios! |

Charleston: remove all bones from legs, and aim to dance, lifty lifty, Gurn Gurn. Trouser braces obligatory. God awful shoes.

Assuming that the rumours are true...
Bollywood: Avert eyes. Unless it's Anton. |

Dance steps:
Pivot: very very turny turny step inserted repetitively into a ballroom dance when running out of original choreograpy. Shimmy: wobbling of shoulders accompanied by mindless grin, inserted repetitively into a latin dance* when running out of original choreograpy. Perfomed in close proximity of judges, preferably shirtless**. (*not applicable to paso, **not applicable to females) |

Spin - you mean the 'pivit' as that seems to be how it gets pronounced on the show!

![]() ![]() Perhaps Thom will be more Dawson in journey hopefully rather than Logan as in rooted to the spot, and finally obliterate those black memories of 2008. If my memory serves me right, that he nearly died once, that's one storyline sorted. There will be a soft focus vid in week 5 to A Time For Us as he burbles how SCD has given him a chance to embrace life. Though sometimes SCD gives me a chance to wish for death. Steve Backshall who swims through vats of piranhas and gets injected with lethal rat viruses will not be able to face having a tan and doing a topless Paso in his storyline. |

I always think of the Argentine Tango as - Woman tries to keep legs together, man tries to keep woman's legs apart.

Bingo entry? I'm giggling at the thought of Steve trying to keep a straight face during a paso. Stomp, stomp, Ole! No, no, ole not Ola. For goodness sake. *tuts* |

You are very welcome.
The Charleston seems to be Gurn Gurn Swivel swivel Lift lift Eat 12 packets of Haribo before you go on. And according to Len above all never set it after 1930 as it will too newfangled and modern |
