The new Television Dancing Club opens on Tuesday, and it will be 'evening dress only'. With the experience of more than two hundred dancing lessons behind him, Victor Silvester comes to television with his orchestra for the first time.

He will be introducing something quite new in teaching methods. In what he describes as the 'magic way to ballroom dancing' viewers will have to learn only one main step, which can apparently be danced 'in many different patterns'.

With Victor Silvester and his Ballroom Orchestra including a dancing lesson and demonstration.
