sorry to put you through it but its soo worth watching for when they start dancing at the end.
This was some 80’s learn to dance TV show from Finland and is genuine. So I’m guessing the Finns can’t danceAugust 20, 2008 at 7:08 am #68924XDCiNSANE

ParticipantI see nothing funny here. I applaud Finland for trying to standardise the dance known as disco and also for using some decent role models for younger people to look up to.
However, as a strong believer in the ‘power of dance’ and ‘letting it all hang out’ I can see how a stricter disco regime may lead to people being thrown out of clubs due to their dancing being non-catagorised. A simple shuffle instead of a step might make a boogie a woogie, and where would that leave us? This is just more bonkers policies from Brussels trying to take away our right to funk.
‘Getting on down’ can never be taught, it is as impossible to quantify as a groove, making it large or throwing some shapes. And if Finland want to tell us differently we’ve got 8 Trident-armed subs that’ll show them a real disco inferno.
Keep your not-clicking fingers out of Europe Finland. I’m going to write to my MP about this.

Participantdear oh dear………..my sides hurt
the guy in the white trousers would give Joey Deacon a run for money, the lady with the terrible perm looks like some kinda Latvian porn star and where in the name of God does the handbag go for them all to dance around ?
Now we need someone will a bit of editing talent to put some manic tune to that vid to finish it off nicely.
