What does it take to do ballet exams in your 70s?
Doreen Pechey learned ballet in her 60s having been unable to afford to do so as she grew up.
Doreen tells Ritula Shah how she adores moving to music but it takes determination to learn ballet as a pensioner, "I've got half a new knee, but you have to work within your own capabilities and you get better as you do more."
