Diwali and a traditional Hindu stick dance
Blue Peter presenters highlight some of the customs connected with the Hindu Festival of Light, Diwali, which marks the return of Lord Rama. We see families painting Rangoli patterns on their doorstep and placing candles around the home. A group of female dancers in traditional dress perform a stick dance in the studio and teach one of the presenters a simple sequence of moves accompanied by sticks and drumming.
