One way to have the time of your life

You’ve watched the film about a million times, bought the special edition DVD, danced for hours to the soundtrack, seen the musical and regularly drop “I carried a watermelon” into everyday conversation.

Well why stop there? If you really want to celebrate Dirty Dancing’s 20th anniversary in style make like Baby Houseman and take a trip to the real life Kellerman’s at Mountain Lake Hotel in Virginia, USA. The resort - where everything from the dance classes to the cabin scenes were filmed (head to North Carolina for the famous lake lift) - is hosting a series of Dirty Dancing weekends. This is your chance

to shake your maracas like poor old dance instructor Penny and learn the salsa, tango and merengue. Unfortunately Patrick Swayze will not be in attendance. Tour the grounds and try to beat other Dirty Dancing fanatics in a trivia competition and find out why, even twenty years later, no one is putting Baby in the corner.
