Hard at twerk - London bobbies in Carnival dance-off

Word of the dancing garda at Indiependence has obviously made its way across the pond.

The 2013 Notting Hill Carnival just wrapped up in London and as usual it was a smörgåsbord of colour, culture and music from around the world.

Even the Bobbies got in on the action, as this clip lighting up YouTube demonstrates.

We'll forgive the flat-footed trio for dancing like drunk dads at a wedding, as it's the thought that counts, in this instance getting fully into the spirit of a community event.

Although we fervently hope that after this clip was shot, whoever took it was arrested for their own protection, as they seem to be suffering from a bad case of vertical video syndrome.
