Well Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Sant! to you all and welcome to the March Madness Dance Off. Admittedly it's been quite a day for the arts, first the sad news about the death of Jane Russell this morning and then the dismissal of John Galliano from the House of Dior following his very strange and unacceptable behaviour; designers at the helm of the big fashion houses are under such enormous pressure these days that I do wonder if Galliano is experiencing some mental health problems as his behaviour has been so extraordinary.
Anyway let's lighten the mood and cheer ourselves up with some fabulous dance clips and the inaugural vote for the March Madness Dance Off.
Ladies and Gentlemen the first category is 'Best Dance Routine with a Comedy Prop' and the nominees are:
Fred Astaire 'Sunday Jumps' - Royal Wedding 1951

OK Chaps, Chocks Away!
