    For clarification, were the nominees made known prior to the meeting in November? My team wasn’t exactly filled with the greatest communicators so it’s possible that they were known. If they weren’t, as I suggested above, it might be better I’m sorry, but this doesn’t explicitly address...

    Good stuff, Jas. We were playing it and Leicester's mix (via Youtube) over and over on Friday night.

    I can't recall the exact reasoning behind the wording. But the captains/choreos were responsible for it.

    True, we played a part in judge selection. Still, IPS may want to re-examine the necessity for media, industry and certainly non-bhangra judges. Another thing could be to inform captains and choreos ahead of time who they're thinking of nominating as judges so that teams can then do their...

    I don't understand why you have such a low mark, Nitin. Did you lose a lot of points when the girl fell? Or was there a penalty of some sort?

    I can send you the official mark scheme if you like. Do send me a PM with your e-mail address if you're interested. EDIT: Nevermind, I uploaded it here: http://img810.imageshack.us/i/54320471235833180509743.jpg/

    No, I was not made aware of the event. I personally would have been keen to attend. I apologise if mine was one of the teams that ignored the e-mail (or worse still, was rude in their reply). Though, something to bare in mind going forward is that mid-December may not be the best time to host...

    Oh, right. I was told by a liaison putting us on coaches had something to do with building regulations. Maybe that's true and the issue was then compounded by the lack of space. We were fortunate enough to be given our own room. I'm sorry you had to go through that.

    Thanks for looking out for us. Much appreciated. Would we have been allowed to stay in the venue then? Was I given inaccurate information about performers having to leave to venue because of going over capacity? Wouldn't it have been easier/cheaper for us to just stay in our rooms then? Or was...

    I can't speak for the other teams (though I've heard that at least a couple had started preparing in the summer), but mine formed in late October and was confirmed as a participant in early November. We took a while to get things running and once they did, the semester break came and many went...

    They had the best mix and choreo, hands down. I would have had them just about pipping B'ham if not for one of the lads forgetting to pick up his khunda.

    Thank you for taking my comments seriously. I appreciate your initiative to look out for next year’s dancers. I didn’t mean to imply that the show itself was a “joke” if looking at it from the UK audience’s point of view. Leaving aside the relative quality of the performances in comparison to...

    Paaji, please don’t mistake my following comments as a sign of hostility, but I need to get this off my chest. A large number of those same dedicated students were also highly insulted by the way they were treated on Saturday evening. I’ll leave it to the audience to decide if they felt our...

    It didn't even feel like a competition. More like a dress rehearsal with crowd noise.

    Oh, did they? They had us stashed on the coach/stairwell up until a minute before Birmingham was announced as winners. Didn't give us any indication that they had already announced a place by the time they let us on stage. What a joke. Truth. The majority of teams have already started to...
