The last 8 bars of the reel are quite demanding. On video 1 the team substituted the following: 25-28: dancing couple (original couple 2) set diagonally to each other and cast (pulling back right shoulder) one place (to second place opposite side) while couples 1 and 3 turn once (instead of 1 1/2 times) finishing on their opposite side [(1)(2)(3)] 29-32: all circle half way 6 hands round to the left to finish [321]. This means the the dance finishes 321, whereas the original instructions have the dancers finishing 123.
Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (3). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.
