Legs & Co. on Larry Grayson's Generation Game

This clip was recently posted over on panspeople.com by Flight14. Unfortunately, their embedded youtube video seems to have been trampled on by the copyright dinosaurs, and they've replaced the full embedded routine with a shorter version with only the final Larry Grayson dancing. So here's a watchable version of the whole thing.

Legs & Co. appear on the Larry Grayson/Isla St. Clair incarnation of The Generation Game. They're demonstrating that peculiarly formal version of "Disco Dancing" taught by ageing dance instructors, with our old friend Floyd, and a couple of other blokes. And yes, Larry, I know what you mean: where do I recognise the tall tall blonde guy from? New Edition? The Young Generation? I dunno.

Then there's a rare appearance by Flick as expert judge. I assume that the whole "People think 'Flick' is a man" routine she does with Larry is really about Larry himself expecting a chap to show up. But I'm just guessing here.

Flick is extravagantly generous in handing out points, a tradition on this show.

Most entertaining and great to see the dancers having such fun. Loved the dresses and Flick looked fantastic as well.

Yes this is a great find. Always nice to see Flick, and to hear her talking was a real treat.
Larry was such a funny guy, his harmless gentle camp humour always had me in stitches. Yet another funny man from the 70s when i was growing up who is no longer with us.

Great fun for all involved and for us and any footage of Flick is precious
