I was talking about the one-off 60-minute programme, 'Seriously Dirty Dancing' made to mark the 20th anniversary of it... presenter Dawn Porter –who's apparently seen movie over 100 times, headed for America in search of Baby and Johnny.
Dawn went on a comic pilgrimage to the United States hoping to fulfil her life-long dream of doing ‘The Last Dance’ with the film’s star, Patrick Swayze. She headed off to America armed with a pair of three-quarter-length white jeans, two watermelons and a life-size cutout of Patrick Swayze
(I would have so loved to be her in this documentory
)
She visited the camp and some of the origonal cast, then she recreated the 'lake scene', which I might add, she went through about 10 Swayze wanabe's.
Then she had 2 weeks of dance lessons to recreate 'the last dance'
The whole programme was brilliant and hillarious,
I just wish I'd taped it!
