Time to hit the boards as 'Strictly Clon Dancing' returns to West Cork

Some 400 people are expected to watch 11 glamorous couples shimmy and twirl their way through everything from the cha-cha to swing, samba, salsa, and jive as the first semi-final of Strictly Clon Dancing 2016 — a highly successful fund-raiser for Clonakilty’s GAA and rugby clubs —swings into action at the Inchydoney Lodge & Spa at 8pm.

This is the second year of the spectacular show, which last time around raised substantial funds for both clubs and features elegantly attired contestants in colourful, tasselled, body-hugging ensembles — none of them professional dancers, but all of them talented.
