Blimey! I couldn't even do that when I was 17 let alone at her age! How old is she? I think I read 75 somewhere. Brilliant...

My goodness!
She's brilliant.

And not her for age.... she's good for any age!

Yeah, great idea. More fodder for the bitching masses on here to put the boot into.

They are a good lesson for all those who claim they can't dance - or whatever - cos of their age! They'd be good on SCD, but I think (not 100% though) that they have been pro dancers for many years.

Oh that's so funny! How ould you not watch it like that though- in fact all the judges did look like that!!

fab- they would have been more entertaining in between the dancing and the voting than many of the singers on SCD this series!

Indeed, she'd clearly be in for it for having previous dance experience

I was going to say I hope I'm that nimble at her age, but in all honestly I just wish I was that nimble now

But she did not exactly dance, she only did about 1 or 2 steps the entire time.

99% of the routine was of her being lifted & the partner swinging her around right , left & centre & between his legs.

Dips, drops and lifts involve work and skill from the follower as well as the leader - it's not just a case of being 'lifted and swung around'.

Even things like the multiple spins at the top of the routine are tricky to master for anyone, leaving aside her age.

I think she did amazingly well.

Maybe this clip shows a better example of her dancing skills - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0Uy8...eature=related

My OH fell in love with my legs.... 25 years ago.

Hers have stood the test of time better than mine have!

Exactly, I was going to post the exact same. After watching all that acrobatics I have no idea if she can dance.

Wonderful to be able to be fit and well to do all that at her age, and long may she go on doing it. Didn't like it much though, the act was a bit uncomfortable to watch given their age difference, and Strictly is not the place for them.

WOW!!!!!!!! That is amazing and she has fantastic legs that would make most 20 year-olds jealous! Amazing clip. Thanks for posting that!

She must have eaten her cheese as a young woman! I was reminded of Craig RH's work for the Osteoporosis Society about how dancing is good for the bones.

Good luck to her!
