Peter Dashwood,ex EFDSS,was the dance co ordinator/Instructor for the dance scenes in Far From the Madding Crowd,he had to teach Julie Christie and Terence Stamp,how to do the dances.
when I played Kiveton park folk club earlier this year,I met his widow.
During the first half of my gig,I sang the song,during the break she introduced herself[we had in fact met before many years ago when I played in ceilidh bands with Peter Dashwood calling]and she informed me very definitely that Isla Cameron was the singer.
