PN pulls off that trick of appearing likeable without coming across as 'desperately needs to be liked', as with most X Factor contestants. BTW, PN + XF desperation = Mika.
He also has that Cliff Richard thing of being able to turn down the o_O of any song he sings (see 'Devil Woman'). Except it's not enough to cover over the o_O of 'Heaven on the 7th Floor' - where the protagonist molests a woman in a stuck lift, possibly while high on drugs.

Wondering if the 'jigging in the rigging' bit in Dancing With The Captain inspired the Pistols?

I got the "Grandma's Party" one for free from a Radio Station.

"Shuffin' Shoes" is alright.

went for the "Reggae"

DLT mentions the dancers being in Ruby Slipper....I have no recollections of this dance troupe. They never get a mention when people discuss TOTP history, unlike Pan's People and then Legs & Co whom I actually remember being on.

Ruby Flipper - they weren't around for very long.
