Darragh and Darcy pick a team each to support for ‘Team Week’ on the show – a chance to test their coaching and supporting skills. They challenge Clelia to model her favourite celeb dancer out of clay – and well enough that D&D can guess who it is. Autocue Operator Diarmuid demonstrates how he helps the presenters, Nicky & Jennifer, to be word perfect show after show. Darcy and Darragh catch up with Fred Cooke to chat about dancing and how it’s taken over his life, the importance of friendship and competition in the troop as the quarter finals loom. Judge Brian teaches the pair the quickstep – and they are actually good at it!
Sparkly news and fun for littles and families on RTÉjr.
