We head back 10 years for this wonderful celebration in the Borough Hall, when celebrity guests Anton du Beke and Erin Boag came to town to judge a charity dance contest.

It was all organised by Carol Hammond who owns the Carol Hammond Dance Studio, in Dalton Street, Hartlepool.

It was based on a similar theme to Strictly Come Dancing and more than 500 people watched amateurs doing their best to impress on the dance floor in front of Anton and Erin.

What do you remember of that wonderful night when nearly £5,000 was raised for charity?
