They were obviously having a good time and wont care what anyone else thinks, and why would they?

Luckygirl3 Sat 06-Aug-22 11:03:01

Is it usual now for the bride to dance with her grandfather in the first dance ........... ? smile

Something about his dancing makes me think he's been watching The Jungle Book with his children. Yoo hoo hoo, I wanna be like youuuu.

Loathe Johnson as I do, they look like they're having fun. Good for them.

If you are going to insult someone. at least take the trouble to spell it correctly.
The verb is 'practised.'

? - you saved me from feeling the need to say it.

FannyCornforth Sat 06-Aug-22 10:30:52

He’s certainly had enough opportunities to perfect it.
Miaow ?

Parsley3 Sat 06-Aug-22 10:28:58

Love his natty white suit.

Visgir1 Sat 06-Aug-22 10:28:58

It was his wedding, nothing to do with us.
How many dodgy 1st dancer's have we all seen?

FannyCornforth Sat 06-Aug-22 10:28:44

My step sister’s wedding dance was ‘Time of my Life’ from the aforementioned Dirty Dancing.

The Groom perfectly performed the famous ‘lift’ move with his rather diminutive Best Man.
It was absolutely brilliant

My favourite photo of our son's recent wedding dance was when the 4 year old DGD ran over to the couple to be scooped up. Little children love to be part of it

FannyCornforth Sat 06-Aug-22 10:18:57

Oh well. Yesterday I was declared rude. Today I’m nasty

Zoejory Sat 06-Aug-22 10:17:50

Well I'm very happy that some of you didn't see one of my son's first wedding dance. He stood there, hardly moving, he resembled a robot. Frozen. Unable to move. His lovely little wife doing her best but the relief when the dance was over. Massive. You could hear the sighs of relief when it ended, not just from family and friends, but from son.

I think we can criticise Boris for many many things, but this? Nope. Just plain nasty.

I imagine that Carrie was delighted when Wilf joined in.
He provided a distraction from his father, and was at least interested in dancing with her.

FannyCornforth Sat 06-Aug-22 10:13:25

No it was their wedding dance. Dedicated to Carrie, whose first name is Caroline

It was their wedding dance though.
It wasn’t as if he just spontaneously got to his feet at a party and started to goofily boogie around.
It’s a bit odd that they didn’t touch each other or dance together.
He doesn’t take anything seriously.
I feel a bit sorry for Carrie really

They could have had one together before this was filmed who knows.
They have been married a while with two small children and little Wilf obviously wanted to join in

Zoejory Sat 06-Aug-22 10:10:44

Carrie is just fine and needs no sympathy. She's got 2 lovely children. Obviously Boris isn't everyone's' Mr Right but it's none of our business really.

Never mind Boris. Who on earth booked that terrible singer?

Zoejory Sat 06-Aug-22 09:58:10

I think I must be the only person on the planet who hasn't watched Dirty Dancing. Obviously seen clips, heard the music but that's it. Maybe one day.

Sorry, but I don't laugh at anyone for the way they dance. It's a personal expression of enjoyment and we can't all be Patrick Swayze.

DIL and I watched Dirty Dancing again recently ?

MawtheMerrier Sat 06-Aug-22 09:54:32

Riverwalk

All part of his 'affable' image - it's no accident the video clip is now online for all to see.

Oh yes, Carrie is no fool, nothing gets on Twitter “by accident” - especially the cute appearance of Wilf towards the end
All together “Aaawww” ???

Zoejory Sat 06-Aug-22 09:53:39

Oh that's just lovely. He dances just like my much missed grandfather. Thanks so much for posting this.

Callistemon21 Sat 06-Aug-22 09:47:14

I think it looks fun - was this at their wedding party?
He looks no worse than many who attempt 'Dad Dancing'

Of course, one day, when Wilfred is a teenager, this clip will embarrass him enormously! ?

henetha Sat 06-Aug-22 09:43:54

I'm no fan of Boris, but cut him some slack now he's going.
Sometimes it's just plain mean.
