Lulu dances to Spinning Rock Boogie by Hank C. Burnette (11/11/1976). Sadly the BBC wiped their master copy, and all we have left of this routine is a partial home recorded copy. Sue once said this was the hardest routine L&C ever did, and it’s certainly the most energetic.

Lulu dances to the Theme From Jaws by Lalo Schifrin (28/10/1976), which sounds nothing like the music from Jaws as I remember it to be. Tony Blackburn muddles his way through the dance group’s naming competition at the start.

Ruby Flipper

Lulu dances to “Play That Funky Music” by Wild Cherry (14/10/1976). This was to be the final performance by Ruby Flipper on Top Of The Pops. The high split skirts revealing stockings underneath, bare midriffs and plenty of hip action all add to the sensual regale. A fitting way for the Flippers to depart from our tv screens.

Lulu dances to “Jeans On” by David Dundas 05/08/1976. For some reason Lulu’s got her eyes shut for much of this routine.
