Dance Video The Gates of Edinburgh (Video 2)
RSCDS Edinburgh Dancing Forth 2007
Danced once each couple in two 3 couple sets, on and off stage with different orientations and the camera switching between them. The final turns are adapted to get 1st couple to 3rd place.
As is traditional in Edinburgh, the two hand turns are here done with skip change rather than pas de basque.
NB the sound track is out of sync with the dancing.
