In the videoed demos, the couples start side by side facing in the line of the dance, swing open on bar 1 and face out, move on and face P on bar 2, then step close step. Bars 9–10 are waltz round once. All this differs from the Collins description. It could be that Collins describes a SCD version that differs from the ballroom version.
