Teri Scoble, the nearest ITV had to a Flick Colby in the seventies, and her family-based dance troupe Him & Us, have come up in discussion over on our forum, so I thought you'd like to see an example of there work. There are quite a few clips of their performances on YouTube: I've chosen this one, since it's a song that Flick also worked on with Ruby Flipper (posted here). From The Arrows TV show.
Now I'm not talking about which is better here: I'm just interested in the difference between the two approaches. If anyone wants a download link (quality will be pretty low), leave a comment and I'll post one.

Well it's better than the Floral Dance
When watching the Flippers dancing to this I resent every second that the camera cuts to Mr Nicholas (even though I would not advocate quite such drastic action as recommended by Cherry for the poor man). Here, that resentment is not so much.
Second Generation -- Yes.
Les Girls -- Yes.
Him and Us-- No.
How camp does Paul Nicholas look also.
i give up trying to convert this lot on him and us
Well they're not bad people, but really,was this the best that ITV
could come up with? NOT glam, just
mumsy and cheesy, sorry.
