Who's the grooviest on the dance floor? Who's got the hottest moves? Whose hips gyrate with the grace of an over-excited baboon?
It's your old man - that's who!
To mark Father's Day, we celebrate our dancing dads!
National Dad Dancing Championships
The first National Dad Dancing Championships were held in Northampton's Grosvenor Centre on Saturday, 19 June, 2004. Andrew Percival from Northamptonshire, who danced with his son, was crowned the winner after a hard-fought contest.
Dads are admired for more than their dextrous use of a lawn mower. The pinnacle of their powers can be witnessed on the dance floor.
We've been onto the streets of Northampton to put local dads through their paces. If you really want to dance like a dad, study these classic moves.
Just click on the pictures below to watch video of the experts in action. Strictly Come Dancing has nothing on this!
Thanks to all the dads who've strutted their stuff for us. They're real stars for showing the world what they can do.
The Hover Mower
Jason Laws from Chelveston demonstrates this well-practiced move. Imagine you're swinging a lawn mower back and forth. Don't forget the foot action - choose between kicking the cable or the cat out of the way.
Agile dad Peter Hughes, from Thorplands in Northampton, is here demonstrating squirty dancing, otherwise known as leak plugging. This is a favourite of plumbers. Arm and leg movements reach out for imaginary water leaks.
Northampton's Tony Aylott is a fine exponent of this popular move. Think stuffed toy; think teddy bear. Make sure there's not too much horizontal movement in the body. With a bit of practice, you too could achieve this dance. (Oh yes, everyone will want to cuddle you too).
A favourite of the reluctant dancer, the Barman style is demonstrated here by Eamonn Fitzpatrick from Northampton. Move your arms up and down as if you're pulling pints - and keep looking around at the customers (or to make sure no one is seeing you dance).
