0:00:02 > 0:00:04Hi, I'm David Hasselhoff and I've been in more movies

0:00:04 > 0:00:06than R-Patz, Scarlett Johansson

0:00:06 > 0:00:08and the Beverly Hills Chihuahuas put together.

0:00:08 > 0:00:11I've done horror, sci-fi, action, rom-coms, dance and sports movies,

0:00:11 > 0:00:14so I know what it takes to make a great picture.

0:00:14 > 0:00:17- HE LAUGHS - My face.

0:00:17 > 0:00:21But aside from that, many things go into creating a cinema classic.

0:00:21 > 0:00:23So, tonight, we'll be clicking our fingers

0:00:23 > 0:00:30and dancing all the way to the Hoff's Best Dance Film Ever.

0:00:46 > 0:00:49Welcome to my hoff-ice. Can I get you a drink?

0:00:49 > 0:00:52Oh, of course I can't, you're home. Skip that.

0:00:52 > 0:00:57You know, somewhere along the crazy ride that is my awesome career,

0:00:57 > 0:01:01I appeared in break-dance comedy kicking it old school.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04It was a tough role, I played myself

0:01:04 > 0:01:09playing myself as Knight Rider, who was played by... myself.

0:01:09 > 0:01:11And although the only thing I had to move

0:01:11 > 0:01:13was the upper part of my face,

0:01:13 > 0:01:17I learned exactly what goes into a rocking dance movie.

0:01:17 > 0:01:19So, let's get our groove on

0:01:19 > 0:01:24as I show you all the moves in the Hoff's Best Dance Film Ever.

0:01:27 > 0:01:32So, shimmy with me as we meet the dancers with all the right moves.

0:01:32 > 0:01:35Your hips, your bum, the booty, it's all got to be right,

0:01:35 > 0:01:37it's all got to be gyrating right.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40There's a lot of thrusting going on.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43Kevin Bacon getting so angry that he has to dance

0:01:43 > 0:01:47is one of the most hilarious bits of cinema of all time.

0:01:47 > 0:01:53Watch in awe as we see some of the best dance costumes ever...

0:01:53 > 0:01:57The hair, the make-up, the permatans, feathers!

0:01:57 > 0:01:59..and some of the worse.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01He looks like a charity shop.

0:02:01 > 0:02:05It's gross! The pants are up to there, silky shirt.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07We'll check out some rival gangs

0:02:07 > 0:02:09as they sort there are issues with a dance-hoff.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11This crew don't get on with this crew

0:02:11 > 0:02:15because they have different techniques.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17And by the end, I guarantee

0:02:17 > 0:02:20you're going to want to shake your thing.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick!

0:02:25 > 0:02:27If you're going to be in a dance movie,

0:02:27 > 0:02:31you better not just like dancing, you've got to NEED to dance.

0:02:31 > 0:02:34I used to feel the same way about running down the beach in Malibu.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37I'm talking about the guys and the girls

0:02:37 > 0:02:41who've just got to dance wherever the hell they are.

0:02:46 > 0:02:48I just want to dance!

0:02:48 > 0:02:51MUSIC: "You Should Be Dancing" by The Bee Gees

0:03:06 > 0:03:09I love when a crowd of people just breaks into song and dance.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11HIPHOP MUSIC

0:03:14 > 0:03:17People love getting in the streets, they love dancing,

0:03:17 > 0:03:21they love the rhythms, they love expressing themselves.

0:03:21 > 0:03:23MUSIC: "Fame" by Irene Cara

0:03:26 > 0:03:28If college students were always coming out

0:03:28 > 0:03:31and dancing on top of taxis, they should try and do that

0:03:31 > 0:03:34in some parts of London on a Friday afternoon.

0:03:34 > 0:03:36"Whoo! Just did double maths!"

0:03:39 > 0:03:41"Get off me taxi!"

0:03:44 > 0:03:47There are many times when I'm in Tesco or I'm in the underground

0:03:47 > 0:03:50and I just want to break free and I just want to dance.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56And I don't and I regret that.

0:03:56 > 0:03:57HIPHOP MUSIC

0:04:03 > 0:04:07Footloose, he's a bad guy who likes to dance!

0:04:07 > 0:04:10I would love to have been in that writers' meeting

0:04:10 > 0:04:12where they came up with that movie.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15They're like, "A film where you're not allowed to dance!"

0:04:15 > 0:04:18- Dancing is against the law.- What?!

0:04:18 > 0:04:20Dancing can be destructive.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23No! No! I'm just going to dance!

0:04:23 > 0:04:25"I want to express myself!"

0:04:26 > 0:04:30Oh, my God! He's dancing!

0:04:32 > 0:04:35You're a madman! You're a madman!

0:04:35 > 0:04:40My right to dance, when I want, where I want

0:04:40 > 0:04:43and how I want is a right that you cannot take away.

0:04:43 > 0:04:45It is mine.

0:04:45 > 0:04:46MUSIC: "I Love to Boogie" by T-Rex

0:04:46 > 0:04:50Billy Elliot is about this young boy who is torn between his family

0:04:50 > 0:04:52and his passion for dance.

0:04:52 > 0:04:54I've got this fire in my body.

0:04:54 > 0:04:56Everything is stopping him from dancing.

0:04:56 > 0:04:57He's from a northern family.

0:04:57 > 0:05:00His dad is a bit like my dad, like a proper bloke.

0:05:00 > 0:05:03- One. Two.- And if I started dancing, my dad would kill me.

0:05:03 > 0:05:11Lads do football... or boxing or... wrestling.

0:05:11 > 0:05:15Not frigging ballet!

0:05:15 > 0:05:17But he dances anyway. He just has to dance.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30Pretty good. But, then, who am I to judge?

0:05:30 > 0:05:34Well, let's just say I'm the Hoff and this is my show.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37But when movie dance heroes strut their stuff,

0:05:37 > 0:05:41they often have someone they have to impress at all costs.

0:05:41 > 0:05:45Break a leg, guys. It's time to show the Hoff what you got.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52You can't just dance, no-one just lets you dance,

0:05:52 > 0:05:55you've got to work hard to dance. You know, you've got to audition.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57I love an audition scene in a dance movie.

0:06:00 > 0:06:02There's such a strict formula throughout films,

0:06:02 > 0:06:05they always are the same and yet we accept that

0:06:05 > 0:06:07because we love to watch someone triumph.

0:06:09 > 0:06:13You can't dance. Show me you can dance.

0:06:13 > 0:06:16The classic judge reaction in a dance film

0:06:16 > 0:06:20is to be cynical to any modern moves.

0:06:22 > 0:06:26Look, I'm not going to stand for this. You, stop!

0:06:26 > 0:06:28Stop right this minute!

0:06:28 > 0:06:35We are auditioning jazz dancers only! Stop this nonsense!

0:06:35 > 0:06:37And they always just, without any reason,

0:06:37 > 0:06:40hate the person who's auditioning. They hate them!

0:06:40 > 0:06:43DANCE MUSIC

0:06:45 > 0:06:46MUSIC OFF

0:06:46 > 0:06:49Thank you, Miss... West.

0:06:50 > 0:06:53They're always wearing glasses and scarves.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58And, of course, there's always the stumble.

0:07:01 > 0:07:03There's got to be a stumble in the audition scene,

0:07:03 > 0:07:05because if they do a perfect audition, where's the jeopardy.

0:07:08 > 0:07:11In real life, if they fall over, darling, they're out.

0:07:11 > 0:07:15- Hold it. Hold it. Cut the music. - I'm sorry, sir. I wasn't ready.

0:07:15 > 0:07:20- But they get a second chance. - Are you ready now?

0:07:20 > 0:07:23Can I start again?

0:07:25 > 0:07:29And they start tapping their foot and they started getting into it.

0:07:35 > 0:07:37And then they're won over by them.

0:07:47 > 0:07:49They accept her on the spot, which never happens!

0:07:49 > 0:07:55I can't say this on the record yet, but welcome to Juilliard.

0:07:55 > 0:08:00The most incredible audition scene has got to be in Fame.

0:08:03 > 0:08:08Leroy is doing the audition and he's like really being sexy and seductive.

0:08:08 > 0:08:11In those very short shorts!

0:08:12 > 0:08:17And the teachers are just melting. And he's just being, like, pure sex.

0:08:21 > 0:08:22What do you call that?!

0:08:22 > 0:08:27Everyone looks up and their eyes are practically watering with shock.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32And then he's got his friend with him

0:08:32 > 0:08:34and there's just something that tickles you about it

0:08:34 > 0:08:37because she's so bad and he's so good.

0:08:37 > 0:08:40And she's just horrific! Absolutely horrific!

0:08:40 > 0:08:44And she pulls this face at the end like this spoilt little 11-year-old.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46It's like, "Why am I so shit?!"

0:08:48 > 0:08:52He's pretty good. That's a dance movie.

0:08:52 > 0:08:55We all know dancing can be sexy, right?

0:08:55 > 0:08:59Personally, I can't dance any other way. Yeah, right(!)

0:08:59 > 0:09:02And the hot girls and guys in the best dance films

0:09:02 > 0:09:04aren't too bad either.

0:09:04 > 0:09:09Check out the Hoff's sexiest ever movie movers.

0:09:09 > 0:09:11Hola, chica!

0:09:16 > 0:09:20The rumba is a vertical expression of a horizontal wish.

0:09:20 > 0:09:24You have to hold her like the skin on her thigh

0:09:24 > 0:09:27is your reason for living.

0:09:27 > 0:09:31Let her go like your heart's being ripped from your chest!

0:09:33 > 0:09:36Pull her back... like you're going to have your way with her

0:09:36 > 0:09:39right here on the dance floor.

0:09:39 > 0:09:42And then finish...

0:09:42 > 0:09:45like she's ruined you for life.

0:09:49 > 0:09:53I think the best dance movies have a lot of sex in the air.

0:09:58 > 0:10:03That first tender touch, very gentle, not even suggestive,

0:10:03 > 0:10:07but it just makes you think, what's going to happen next?

0:10:09 > 0:10:13It's basically an amazing scene of foreplay.

0:10:16 > 0:10:21It's just really important that your hips, your bum, the booty,

0:10:21 > 0:10:24it's all got to be right, it's all got to be gyrating right.

0:10:28 > 0:10:32Magic Mike isn't dancing so much as a lot of thrusting.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34There's a lot of thrusting going on!

0:10:34 > 0:10:38It's actually incredibly awkward at times the amount of thrusting.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41You're cringing one minute and then you're going, "Ooh!" the next

0:10:41 > 0:10:43and then you're cringing again, you know.

0:10:44 > 0:10:48Magic Mike is the Hollywood version, the beefcake and slick version,

0:10:48 > 0:10:51The Full Monty is kind of the Sheffield version,

0:10:51 > 0:10:53a bit more down to earth.

0:10:53 > 0:10:55CHEERING

0:10:55 > 0:10:59MUSIC: "You Can Keep Your Hat On" by Tom Jones

0:11:00 > 0:11:01My favourite scene in that

0:11:01 > 0:11:05is definitely the bit where they all get their bums out.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07- SHE LAUGHS - I'll be honest.

0:11:13 > 0:11:17That's my cousin, Johnny Castle. He got me the job here.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20For me, it's Patrick Swayze in Dirty Dancing.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23I think he's so sexy in that film.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26So raw and just so manly.

0:11:29 > 0:11:33It made every woman I know just go... SHE SIGHS

0:11:33 > 0:11:35Dance with me.

0:11:37 > 0:11:40- What, here?- Here.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43I rewound that scene in the bedroom

0:11:43 > 0:11:45where they're doing the slo-mo dancing

0:11:45 > 0:11:49and they basically have sex, I think I rewound that...

0:11:49 > 0:11:51a hundred times.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00I think there was our first experience of like...

0:12:00 > 0:12:03horny feelings. SHE LAUGHS

0:12:03 > 0:12:05Well, it was for me.

0:12:05 > 0:12:09Hey! Are you as good in bed as you are on that dance floor?

0:12:09 > 0:12:12- HE LAUGHS - Well, are you?

0:12:12 > 0:12:16John Travolta's lascivious and licentious hip action,

0:12:16 > 0:12:23it's the way he I suppose thrusts, you know, his crotch...

0:12:24 > 0:12:27..that is...uh, is sexy.

0:12:29 > 0:12:31All right!

0:12:31 > 0:12:37And, of course, tight white trousers, you know, help, don't they?

0:12:37 > 0:12:40MUSIC: "More Than a Woman" by Bee Gees

0:12:40 > 0:12:42APPLAUSE

0:12:42 > 0:12:45CHEERING

0:12:45 > 0:12:48A truly great dance movie needs more than just bump and grind,

0:12:48 > 0:12:51it needs costumes that could stop traffic.

0:12:51 > 0:12:54I'm talking sequins, tight trousers, headbands, leather!

0:12:54 > 0:12:57But enough about my wardrobe.

0:12:57 > 0:13:02I mean the kind of outfits Lady Gaga would think twice about clubbing in.

0:13:02 > 0:13:06I give you the Hoff's Spandex Index.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24Fabulous dresses and make-up and costumes

0:13:24 > 0:13:26is essential to a good dance film.

0:13:32 > 0:13:36Style was almost as important as the actual dancing itself.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38It sets the tone.

0:13:39 > 0:13:43Saturday Night Fever, Tony's sort of making himself up.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47He looks like a charity shop.

0:13:47 > 0:13:50It's gross. The pants are up to there, silky shirt.

0:13:52 > 0:13:54It's not a great look.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56And a lot of people copied that, so it's his fault.

0:14:05 > 0:14:09I absolutely love the costumes in Strictly Ballroom.

0:14:09 > 0:14:11I mean, they're just insane.

0:14:11 > 0:14:15I mean, the hair, the make-up, the permatans,

0:14:15 > 0:14:18the skimpiness, the feathers! HE LAUGHS

0:14:18 > 0:14:20They're just completely crazy!

0:14:22 > 0:14:25For me, the costumes and the hair in dance

0:14:25 > 0:14:27are the finishing touches of it.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30You know, your body can do one thing and can tell the story,

0:14:30 > 0:14:34but the costumes and the hair complete the story.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39I think quite often in dance films

0:14:39 > 0:14:45women are often seen as quite young girls to start off with.

0:14:51 > 0:14:54And then they have to go through this transformation.

0:14:54 > 0:14:56Can you dance without those?

0:15:01 > 0:15:02It might help.

0:15:10 > 0:15:12WHISTLING

0:15:12 > 0:15:16Grease which by the way has the worst moral story ever,

0:15:16 > 0:15:18which is, "Hey, if a guy doesn't fancy you,

0:15:18 > 0:15:20"slut it up a bit and he probably will."

0:15:22 > 0:15:24Sandy!

0:15:24 > 0:15:26"Tell me about it, stud."

0:15:26 > 0:15:28"Tell me about it, stud."

0:15:28 > 0:15:31I remember when I saw it when it first came out,

0:15:31 > 0:15:33I was going... (GASPS)

0:15:33 > 0:15:37# Meditate in my direction

0:15:37 > 0:15:41- # Feel your way... #- Waaargh!

0:15:41 > 0:15:43What I wouldn't give for an arse like that

0:15:43 > 0:15:47in those black satin trousers. Phenomenal.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49- # You're the one that I want - You are the one I want

0:15:49 > 0:15:51# Ooo, ooo, ooo, honey

0:15:51 > 0:15:53- # The one that I want - You are the one I want

0:15:53 > 0:15:55# Ooo, ooo, ooo

0:15:55 > 0:15:57# The one that I need

0:15:57 > 0:16:00# Oh, yes, indeed. #

0:16:00 > 0:16:03Now, I'm a pretty emotional guy,

0:16:03 > 0:16:06but of all the emotions, the one I like least is anger.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09It's such a destructive emotion.

0:16:09 > 0:16:12Some people go to a bar and pick a fight when they're angry,

0:16:12 > 0:16:16others write abuse to '80's TV stars on Twitter,

0:16:16 > 0:16:20but not the people in a great dance film. Oh, no.

0:16:20 > 0:16:24Cos when they get mad, they get moving.

0:16:30 > 0:16:33I've danced with abandon, I've danced with happiness and joy.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36Fury, probably not.

0:16:36 > 0:16:38# I feel like I want to smack somebody... #

0:16:40 > 0:16:43There are a lot of emotions that you can portray through dance,

0:16:43 > 0:16:46one of which, which is used a lot, is anger.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51So much anger. So much youthy anger.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57Just, like, "I'm so angry with what my dad said, man!"

0:16:57 > 0:16:59And just be like...

0:16:59 > 0:17:01There's always one that's...

0:17:01 > 0:17:03That's a part of what makes us crew.

0:17:03 > 0:17:05It seems a little bit aggressive,

0:17:05 > 0:17:06but it's a good way to take out your anger

0:17:06 > 0:17:08when you go through stuff in your personal life.

0:17:08 > 0:17:12You can sort of see anger management in the film Billy Elliot.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14MUSIC: "Town Called Malice" by The Jam

0:17:20 > 0:17:22It seems that when he's angry, he taps.

0:17:27 > 0:17:30I'm not sure if those two things have always gone hand in hand.

0:17:30 > 0:17:33I'm not sure if there are people on the tube in the morning

0:17:33 > 0:17:34just tapping it out really angry.

0:17:37 > 0:17:40When you're angry, you want to yell at something or hit someone,

0:17:40 > 0:17:42you don't want to do the Charleston.

0:17:42 > 0:17:45Get your anger out, Kevin!

0:17:45 > 0:17:48Kevin Bacon getting so angry that he has to dance

0:17:48 > 0:17:52is one of the most hilarious bits of cinema of all time.

0:17:56 > 0:18:00Those jeans are too tight. That's what he was furious about.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06It lives in the hearts and minds of many people, I'm sure,

0:18:06 > 0:18:09you know, who think it's wonderful.

0:18:09 > 0:18:10I don't, however.

0:18:17 > 0:18:20OK, so those guys needed dance to feel alive,

0:18:20 > 0:18:23but this next bunch are hoff the hook.

0:18:23 > 0:18:26The best dance films have dudes who are so committed to the beat

0:18:26 > 0:18:28that if there are no people about

0:18:28 > 0:18:30they'll dance with whatever's to hand.

0:18:30 > 0:18:34Sounds crazy, right? Well, not to me.

0:18:34 > 0:18:37I used to talk to a car for Pete's sake.

0:18:37 > 0:18:39Hey, KITT, run VT.

0:18:43 > 0:18:46Their partner doesn't show up that particular day

0:18:46 > 0:18:48and they go, "Hey, what have we got?"

0:18:48 > 0:18:51"We just got stapler. OK."

0:18:51 > 0:18:53MIMICS BEAT

0:18:53 > 0:18:55Genius!

0:18:55 > 0:18:57ELECTRONIC DANCE MUSIC

0:19:02 > 0:19:05I've been in the kitchen mopping up my floor

0:19:05 > 0:19:07and a really good tune's come on

0:19:07 > 0:19:09and I've had a little dance with the broom.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12You know, it's not my finest moment but it does happen.

0:19:15 > 0:19:16There are no strings attached.

0:19:16 > 0:19:19Some people say there are strings attached, there are none though.

0:19:19 > 0:19:23All right, there's none, OK. Magic!

0:19:24 > 0:19:29Now, the reason to bring in a prop to a dance movie or to a dance routine

0:19:29 > 0:19:32is just to take it somewhere else.

0:19:43 > 0:19:45Chairs... make girls sexy.

0:19:48 > 0:19:52Probably because they generally end up spreading their legs on them

0:19:52 > 0:19:55and over them. I suppose, you know, there is that.

0:19:55 > 0:19:57Chairs are meant to be sexy to dance with.

0:19:57 > 0:20:00You know why they're sexy? Because they've got four legs.

0:20:00 > 0:20:01Yeah, legs are sexy.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07Lisa Minnelli in Cabaret where she does Mein Lieber Herr.

0:20:07 > 0:20:15# Bye-bye, mein lieber herr... #

0:20:15 > 0:20:17And she's dancing on this chair so provocatively

0:20:17 > 0:20:19that it looks like she is very nearly

0:20:19 > 0:20:22having an intimate relationship with the chair.

0:20:22 > 0:20:26# ..affair but now it's over! #

0:20:26 > 0:20:28Chairs are meant for sitting on, not dancing around.

0:20:34 > 0:20:36Limber up cos it's time to take a look

0:20:36 > 0:20:39at some of the greatest dance-offs ever.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41I love a dance-hoff.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44In a dance film, it's a great way to show off your finest moves.

0:20:44 > 0:20:45And for these guys,

0:20:45 > 0:20:49the competition is more fierce than an untrained lion.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Raarrr!

0:20:56 > 0:20:58There's nothing I like more than a dance battle.

0:21:01 > 0:21:03Especially in a film from the '80s.

0:21:11 > 0:21:14The point of a dance-off is to have a winner.

0:21:24 > 0:21:26This crew don't get on with this crew

0:21:26 > 0:21:28because they have different techniques!

0:21:36 > 0:21:39Gangs also decide to...fight but through dance.

0:21:42 > 0:21:46Guys, shall we just get rid of these and, uh, have a boogie instead?

0:21:52 > 0:21:55West Side Story, it's aggressive yet camp somehow.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02Instead of fighting, they're dancing.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04They're dancing

0:22:04 > 0:22:07and they're having a little bit of a dance-off.

0:22:09 > 0:22:11It's a bit like gang rivalry but with tap shoes on.

0:22:14 > 0:22:17Jazz hands are like knives to a gang.

0:22:17 > 0:22:20Jets! Jets!

0:22:23 > 0:22:26The best dance films have moves you want to try out

0:22:26 > 0:22:28again and again and again.

0:22:28 > 0:22:30It's time to clear a space

0:22:30 > 0:22:34and salute the moves that make the whole world groove.

0:22:34 > 0:22:37MUSIC: "Gangnam Style" by PSY

0:22:40 > 0:22:43Everyone thinks they can do the moves.

0:22:49 > 0:22:52It's a bit of a shock when you realise that you can't.

0:22:56 > 0:22:58All of the teen dance movies,

0:22:58 > 0:23:04I just incorporate the moves into my own sort of genre.

0:23:04 > 0:23:07And that's how I'm the dancer I am today.

0:23:10 > 0:23:14Breakin' 1 and Breakin' 2 like these are the dance bibles.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18They had all the popping...

0:23:20 > 0:23:24All this stuff you take from the film, you know.

0:23:24 > 0:23:31# Now I had the time of my life! #

0:23:31 > 0:23:35I have never wanted to join in with a scene in a film

0:23:35 > 0:23:41as much as when Johnny comes into the hall at the end of Dirty Dancing.

0:23:41 > 0:23:46Baby's on the stage with that really innocent face of hers.

0:23:46 > 0:23:49And he lifts her off the stage!

0:23:55 > 0:23:59Weirdly, the lift is hard, I've tried it.

0:23:59 > 0:24:00Every girl at some point or other

0:24:00 > 0:24:02has been at a swimming pool with their best friend

0:24:02 > 0:24:04and gone, "Shall we try and do the lift?"

0:24:04 > 0:24:05"Shall we have a crack at it?"

0:24:05 > 0:24:07And then after about two minutes gone,

0:24:07 > 0:24:09"Yeah, we definitely can't do that."

0:24:09 > 0:24:11Good! Keep your legs... No, no, no!

0:24:11 > 0:24:15Yes, I've tried to do the lift in a swimming pool.

0:24:15 > 0:24:17Not always succeeded.

0:24:17 > 0:24:20Bend your knees. And... go!

0:24:20 > 0:24:22My ex, we tried that,

0:24:22 > 0:24:24and I was just basically left

0:24:24 > 0:24:26holding a pair of size 16 Asda George knickers

0:24:26 > 0:24:28because she just came straight out the other side.

0:24:33 > 0:24:37Every time something is played that is vaguely '70s... instantly.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39MUSIC: "Night Fever" by The Bee Gees

0:24:43 > 0:24:46Don't quote lines from Saturday Night Fever,

0:24:46 > 0:24:49you quote the dance moves because they are so famous.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55The hustle. I just had to learn that.

0:24:55 > 0:24:59A little bit like line dancing but a lot cooler.

0:25:02 > 0:25:08And, actually, forged the way for me to begin dancing myself.

0:25:12 > 0:25:18OK, I guess it's time to cool down and reveal the best dance film ever.

0:25:18 > 0:25:23It's the queen of all girly movies that guys secretly love too.

0:25:23 > 0:25:27It's got two people who had no choice, they just had to dance.

0:25:27 > 0:25:31It's got one of the steamiest dance scenes ever on celluloid

0:25:31 > 0:25:35and the takeaway dance move that has kept A&E departments

0:25:35 > 0:25:38busy for two decades.

0:25:38 > 0:25:41Yep, you guessed it, the Hoff's best dance film ever is...

0:25:44 > 0:25:46..Dirty Dancing.

0:25:46 > 0:25:52# Now I had the time of my life

0:25:52 > 0:25:56# I know I never felt like this before. #

0:25:56 > 0:25:59Dirty Dancing, Dirty Dancing. There is no other contender.

0:25:59 > 0:26:02It's got every element that you could want.

0:26:02 > 0:26:05It's got the girl learning how to dance,

0:26:05 > 0:26:06it's got the big routines,

0:26:06 > 0:26:09it's got dancing, it's got love, it's got passion.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12Just the perfect dance film for me.

0:26:14 > 0:26:19The normal girl becomes like the queen of the film, if you like.

0:26:19 > 0:26:24And Baby in that film really finds herself as a woman through dance

0:26:24 > 0:26:27and through this man that she meets.

0:26:27 > 0:26:29# This could be love

0:26:29 > 0:26:35# Because I had the time of my life

0:26:35 > 0:26:39# I know I never felt this way before. #

0:26:39 > 0:26:42It's one of those that you want to watch again.

0:26:42 > 0:26:46Like, I can't help but say when I was younger maybe, you know,

0:26:46 > 0:26:49at least two or three times a day, maybe.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56Half of the time you're singing along.

0:26:56 > 0:26:59If not, you're dancing along, doing the moves, you know what I mean.

0:27:05 > 0:27:08And that's why Dirty Dancing is number one, you see,

0:27:08 > 0:27:10cos you can watch it over and over.

0:27:15 > 0:27:17Well, it's time to hit the lights,

0:27:17 > 0:27:19grab your coat and try and find a taxi.

0:27:19 > 0:27:23I would ask you for a slow dance but you'd only fall in love with me.

0:27:23 > 0:27:27So, I guess, it's time for me to say good night.

0:27:27 > 0:27:28This is the Hoff clocking off.
