The bio was revelatory to me too Lisa, a man of many talents!
Sami I cannot quite bring myself to do a tutu photoshop ...even after our discussion here ..somehow the argentinian tango would suit Hal..it is a dance of that tension of controlled passions.....
and it could all be part of returning to his normal life! Hal does suggest 'dinner perhaps and dance or some alternative courtly ritual' to Alex on the phone when he is apologizing for being so ungentlemanly...so he must have the moves!!!!
Lol! I do wonder what dancing Hal would excel in...I feel part classical like a waltz... something with an elegant rise and fall...with atleast 3 feet between him and his dancing partner..and part intoxicatingly seductive, devastatingly masterful argentine tango, Oh yes. though of course we don't want to see that part of Hal do we, that Hal has not emerged for many years...
A sentiment shared by many of us Pearl, though more often expressed on twitter than here! 'Strictly Hal Dancing'!
We were very lucky to have an entire scene with Bad Hal 'Puttin On The Ritz' in the final episode..but dare I say that I almost preferred the 'tango' between Hal and Lady Catherine at the opening of episode 1?
Damien's Spotlight profile mentions his proficiency in the Waltz.. but must admit my mind veers more towards the latin dances..the ultimate being the Argentine Tango. this would have to be Bad Hal. probably. sigh.
I notice in the Spotlight page that his singing voice is described as bass-baritone! I think it is baritone but I might be wrong.
Also, he must be a very clever man to do a four year BA course at Trinity College, Dublin, and then go on to do another BA course at the Drama Centre. And be able to speak all those languages. Thank goodness he decided to concentrate on acting!
Flight doing the Argentine tango would be most unexpected! It would reveal a very interesting hidden side of Flight! Maybe his real secret is that he is an Argentinian tango dancer from the streets of Buenos Aires!
under the tutilage of a certain Homer Jackson, anything could happen to the young and charming Flight.... admittedly the tango was not an international dance until maybe the 1920's, but Jackson or another may have travelled and brought the dance back from Buenos Aires to the streets of Whitechapel... or maybe Flight himself will travel .... or perhaps a girl from the dancehall had some experiences to share....
wow that looks fantastic! Flight's really grown out of his shell!
Interestingly I have it in my head-canon that Hal learned Flamenco dancing while he was in Madrid. It's one of those one-shots I occasionally write a few words for here and there...

haha! he was always easily corrupted though whimsy....?
I def see Hal as a dancer.. but it has always been the tango.. although flamenco also has the right amount of passion, fierceness and meaningful stares...but the argentine tango has a sophistication and style that is unbeatable.
