Dancing a 60’s Swing.
Dierdre’s hobbies are yoga, tennis, and reading. Conor’s hobbies are playing pool, gym, and tennis.
While they both have extensive experience ‘busting out’ their moves in the clubs, Deirdre has experience with Irish dancing.
When asked if they knew each other before this experience they said, “Yes, we are partners, since way before Strictly.” They took part in this event because it’s a great cause and it will be fun to learn to dance.
You can sponsor our dance here & help us raise funds for Ozanam House!

If you could have one dance with anybody you liked in the whole wide world who would it be and what dance would you like to dance to?
Who do you think you have to watch out for? Who do you think is the best dancer from your fellow contestants?
I think Judith and Shane have a great, catchy song and they dance well together. They have great energy.
It’s hard to say as we have not seen all of the dances yet, but Niall and Joan are very graceful and structured dancers, and their experience shows.
What do you think of the other competitors?
There is some great competition and great routines. It will be very entertaining.
How are you feeling? How do you think you will do on the night?
We are feeling good.
Hard to know how we are going to do on the night just yet, but hopefully we’ll do well.
We’ll be nervous anyway, that’s for sure, but hopefully that will ease as we become more confident in our dance.
