I'm not a dancer, but I enjoyed the dancing programme. I thought the presentation was a bit amateurish in places and perhaps naive at times, but nothing too important and the Unthanks did generally pretty well. Being dancers themselves obviously helped a lot here. There were a few hooks for a follow-up programme - the reference to their father sword-dancing for one - but I fear that's wishful thinking. I was hoping for an evening of folk music, but switched off the following piece early in. I must catch the third on i-player.
