    Many thanks, Mark, for providing the link. I am totally amazed at how, and how quickly, these things are logged with YouTube!

    Having watched Kenny's dance again, I have to agree that the sleeveless top does work for him ......... in general, I just have a 'thing' about guys and sleeveless garments!!

    I just got a chance to watch this now, and while I am not a fan of Sleeveless shirts I must also admit that Kenny pulled of the look. I very rarely watch these shows, but I thoroughly enjoyed it thanks for posting the link.

    Well, it is, after all, a family show. And this isn't meant to titilate, but the producers and cast do take extra measures to keep it that way - though it seems to me the backup plan they have in place in the event of a wardrobe malfunction on the girls would make it burlesque.

    I enjoyed seeing the kilt in the show, even if it was tarted up a bit for the occasion. I thought the cuban heels looked strange, even if they are appropriate for a paso doble. And I would have thought they'd have made his partner's outfit relate a little more to his costume.

    But even the kilt didn't help his wooden dancing, I'm afraid.

    Regards,
    Rex.

    oh wow - looks fantastic! well, tecnically this guy still has to improve his movements, be more relaxed and accurate but the pasodoble itself is very difficult to dance, it's a union of softness and force, and it's just a matter of time and practice) I see he has potential, this is for sure! and the whole thing looks very very interesting) what i personally like - the union of my beloved spanish dance with also beloved scottish dress/style/whateva))
    the pasodoble in kilt is cool! i'd pass the idea to my fellow dancers - maybe we'll do something for a NYear party))

    From the Daily Record:


    Beeb In Kenny Logan Kilt Cover-Up

    Oct 26 2007

    BEEB bosses have banned rugby hunk Kenny Logan from going commando under his kilt on Strictly Come Dancing.

    The former Scotland star has pledged to dance in a kilt if he survives past this weekend's shows.

    BBC1 producers gave him the OK to bare his legs - but Kenny yesterday said they were scared of a "wardrobe malfunction".

    Kenny, 35, said: "If I can get through the samba and into the next week, I'll be doing the paso doble. I have promised to wear my kilt for that.

    "The producers have told me, though, that they'll only let me wear it if I make sure I wear something underneath.

    "Usually, as a proud Scotsman I would wear the kilt with nothing underneath.

    "But they simply couldn't afford something to happen.

    "More than 10million people watch this show on TV and I think I 'd be prepared to compromise this once.

    "I'd be proud to wear a kilt on the show - even with my pants on."

    Kenny is competing against his telly presenter wife Gabby, 34, on the show.

    Isn't it customary to wear pants under your kilt if you go dancing? I believe this is the case with Highland Dancing.

    Absolutely - in most places where I have seen kilts on dancers - particularly up on a stage, it is not a matter of choice.

    Some places even insist that there is sufficient coverage and some dictate colours as well as style, some do not allow a pattern or emblem. The rules have been made tighter due to incidents in the past.

    Kilts are becoming more common on morris dancers, they were even on sale at the last folk festival I went to.

    Mister Logan was certainly masculine, but a bit too much beef and not really enough bull fighter in my opinion.

    Nice legs though. And the cape twirling wasn't bad.
