Franz Ferdinand have won this years Highland foot-tapping competition. Up against stiff competition from Jethro Tull, the Glaswegian musicicans tapped their way to winning in a nail biting final.
Ferdinand chose the 1984 Mel and Kim classic 'Respectable' to tap to whilst fellow finalists Tull decided on New Order's tricky 'Blue Monday'.
'Blue Monday is an incredibly difficult tapping record, but if you can pull it off you'll definitely woo the judges.', judge Patrick Duffy explained, 'Tull had everything to play for, but their bass player's foot lost it in the middle eight of the New Order classic.'
Ferdinand held it together right through and as a finale they tapped and clicked fingers to Scotland's national anthem 'We are sailing'.
Well done Franz!
