Ah, you missed the setup at 23:05 when he scratched his ear - obviously, the "blink twice" gambit alters vastly based on the results of the "ear scratch" move.

Yes, it's Strictly Mornington Crescent!

Anyway, "floorcraft"

Yes - although it means different things in social / competitive dancing.

Floorcraft in social dancing is about enjoying the dance, moving in harmony with the other couples, protecting your partner, avoiding collisions, and using the space appropriately - for example, not stepping backwards against the Line Of Dance. It's a cooperative thing.

Floorcraft in competitive dancing is about maximising your visibility and profile to the judges, whilst ensuring you don't get boxed in or disrupted by other dancers. It's a competitive thing.

Yep - I have posted an acknowledgement of my mistake, but I don't mind making another.

A bit of humble pie never hurt anyone.
