LIKE Thelma Edwards, I would have no problem with same-sex dancing on the BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing and rarely view the programme either ( Letters, September 22 ).

On a personal level, since adolescence, I have found the proximity of “bust to bust” engagement especially rewarding although arms length gyration has had its moments. Just don’t ask me to dance backwards in high heels and a frock.
