Hello all, It's a whole new year! Looking forward to seeing you all on Monday when we get cracking into DERT preperation. Is there anyone who *isn't coming*: Kate is a no, Jo and Rachel I have lost track! I believe we should have a new member turning up, Maz, although I have pointed out it's not a great time to start learning as our focus is on the DERT dances. So we'll try and have her dancing as much as possible but hopefully she'll understand if it's a bit limited. As far as the DERT set is concerned I think we'll start off with a dance-through which we film and then spend some time figuring out where any problems lie. I'd also like to consider any changes people may have thought of as obviously the sooner we put them in the better. Westerhope set is in the capable hands of Emma although I'd say you need to spend time working through people in new positions and if there are any changes Emma is interested in making before going as far as filming the whole thing. I'd also like to get other people learning Piccadilly so we will hopefully start this off as well - we'll potentially split into Piccadilly and Jubilee at this point in order for newer members to dance and to firm up newer positions etc. Hope that all sounds ok!
