Ballerina Heroines

Scouring the TV schedules for something worth viewing this evening, I discovered Darcey's Ballerina Heroines on BBC Two at 8.15pm. For younger viewers and slobs, Darcey Bussell CBE is a judge on Strictly Come Dancing, the one who brings charm and beauty to the panel. A prima ballerina for two decades, she was Principal Dancer at the Royal Ballet and performed all the great roles in the classical repertoire. In this programme she explores the changing role of the ballerina (CLICK).
