A BEARSDEN girl has made it through to the live semi-final of TV talent show 'Got to Dance', as a member of a dance group called 'The Box'.
They are the only group of dancers from Scotland to get this far in the competition and will appear on the Sky 1 TV show, hosted by Davina McCall, on Sunday.
Stephanie Taylor (14) from St Andrew's Drive, Bearsden, dances with the group of 13 Glasgow youngsters who are tipped to be Britain's hottest dance troupe.
And they need your vote to be in with a chance of getting through to the final on February 14 to win the £100,000 prize money up for grabs.
The dancers, ranging from seven years old to 15 years old, train with instructor Robert Hamilton in an old used dance hall on top of a pub in South Street, Glasgow.
They learn musical theatre, jazz, commercial, street, contemporary, gymnastics, showdances, competitive freestyle and limbering in a makeshift studio with no mirrors or heating and old carpets.
As there is only one space to use when two classes are on they either share the hall or take it in turns. If they won the prize money they would use it to make another hall, put in ballet bars, mirrors, heating and flooring.
