Stevie Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Favouritism is generally considered a bad thing in the UK, implying unfair advantage or preferential treatment. As associated with 'teacher's pet in schools'. If favourite's were, however allowed, has anyone considered what would be their own candidates. This could be applied to either Artists or Productions. I think I could secretly put forward Ekaterina Kondaurova and possibly La Bayedere, if of course it were allowed and it didn't infringe on my policy of 'no favourites'. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beryl H Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 I'm with you on La Bayadere (the Russian and Nureyev productions rather than the RB one) also Giselle (the ENB Mary Skeaping version). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loveclassics Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 I'm assuming it's Mara. One of my favourites too and still a very active performer though it's been far too many years since she was with the RB. Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda Don't you fee(l) you've missed a major clue with your choi(ce) of guess? If you are quickish you've got time for one more go.

Do you fee(l) like guessing again? No need to guess now, that clinches it. I think that Sylvia is the best legacy she has left on DVD & blu-ray, closely followed by the mirror scene in Vicar of Dibley. I only saw her once and I swear her legs stretched further above her head than mine do from the waste down. I applaude your choice and don't think Martin Harvey can match that.

Pas de Quatre Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Most major competitions now have an audience favourite prize - so it's not an outlandish idea to have a favourites category! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although finding out who the favourites are may be a little more transparent. I for one have rather enjoyed this thread, with Rob's clue from July 29 certainly appealing to my sense of quirkiness.
