Musical May-Follow the Fleet- Lets Face the Music

There may be trouble ahead
But while there's music and moonlight
and love and romance
Let's face the music and dance

So said Angela Rippon on the Morecambe and Wise Christmas Show in 1976, before revealing that she had legs and could dance. However, 5 years before that Morecambe and Wise performed Let's Face The Music with Glenda Jackson (Shortly after the shot in the background she fell off the back of the stairs - remember?)

I couldn't find any suitable shots of Angela Rippon dancing with M&W, so had to settle for this one with Glenda Jackson. The song is also famous for the Fred and Ginger routine in Follow the Fleet (which was filmed as one continuous scene), so here are my Fred the Penguin (suit) and (root) Ginger performing with M&W and Glenda Jackson.

Tomorrow is On The Avenue, so Fred and Ginger get a break, however, Wikipedia isn't too helpful on this one, so a little head scratching is starting.
