Anyone who’s watched even a sliver of Strictly Come Dancing must have toyed with the idea of going along to some dance classes so that they can emulate the grace or passion of the dancers on our Saturday night screens.
And so, this evening, I found myself leaving the office in the City and taking the Northern line to Angel to attend an Argentine Tango lesson.
