Dance Video Five Stars (Video 1)

Airyhall, Newcastle Festival 2020
Once through (in a modified version) as part of a display. In bars 19-20 3rd couple cast off to 4th place instead of 5th place (underlined in the instructions!). The LH across of bars 29-32 is completely replaced by rearrangement of the 5 couple set into two 4 couple sets with extra dancers so the final circles are two 8 hands round and back instead of 10 hands. Excellent dancing but not so suitable for learning the dance.
