Surprised grumpy Len didn't pick up on that to complain about!

It's allowed

A lift is allowed unmarked again

Not in ballroom tango. Assume the comment is on Brendan and Sophie, not Kevin and Susanna?

Oh really? When did this change? I thought only AT, Charleston, Salsa and AS were allowed lifts? Len was complaining about it in the Halloween show

Since when?


Still, illegal lifts are Brendan's trademark. With that and the uber-80s styling he's presented a masterclass in self-parody tonight. All we needed was a rolled-up sleeve and I could have called 'house!'

That's what I thought, thanks. And yes, it's about Brendan and Sophie

As James Jordan wrote on twitter...

"Well done Brendan and Sophie. Great tango dude....Nice lift too"

Sorry, I can't copy / paste in the link, but he also had the sarcastic / winking smiley too. So yes it was a lift but I think it was one of those if you can get away with it moments...
