1. Footing

9

Move right foot forward then back. Lift kitten heel up. Put kitten heel down. Repeat. Be careful not to nod off.

2. Body positioning

9

Make sure you look as uncomfortable and rigid as possible.

Do not exceed a 20-degree lean or you’ll do yourself a mischief. Do not incline to the Left . . .

Twist torso jerkily in time with your feet. Jerk forward, keeping your upper body as stiff as an Eton collar.

3. Arm movement

9

Keeping your upper arm muscles fully tensed (nobody votes for bingo wings) creak your lower arm robotically up from the elbow as if you’re not quite sure which planet you’re on.

OPTIONAL (depending on how liberated you feel): Say “Peter Crouch, eat your heart out”.

 

4. On the move

9

Feel the beat in those happy feet! Alternatively, you can shuffle along like it’s a wet Wednesday in Westminster . . .
