Farmer Dances With Her Sheep to Find Fame Overnight

Lesley Perrett dances with her sheep once a year and this video is the most popular one yet

A farmer in Bradworthy has found fame overnight after sharing a video of herself dancing with her sheep on Facebook.

In the video, Lesley Perret, who runs Brexworthy Farm with her husband, dances to the song ‘I Don’t Feel Like Dancin’' by the Scissor Sisters, while her sheep chew on hay and look bemused in the background.

Lesley says that she shared the video to the Facebook group ‘Ladies who Lamb’ as part of an annual tradition where she uploads a video of herself dancing with her sheep.

“It’s a bit of an odd year, so our admin, Debs, decided to try and get everyone else to do a video so we could all cheer each other up,” she said.

Lesley was the first person to upload her video last night. Since then, it’s had 4,000 views and continues to be watched.

“This year it’s all gone a bit mad” said Lesley, who thinks that more people are watching due to lockdown.

Lesley says that she isn’t a fan of the fame: “I’m quite happy just to stay in my sheep shed! I only do one video a year.”

But that she hopes the video can boost morale during what has been a difficult period of lockdown.

As the video was getting so many views, Lesley decided to add a link to a donation page for the Fountain Centre, a hospital in Guildford that has been treating one of her close family members for cancer. “I had a target of £200 but it was up to nearly £300 this morning,” said Lesley.

How about “dances with wolves in sheep’s clothing”?

When “Avatar” came out, we called it “Dances with Smurfs”.

Stupid video.

Would be better if she was at least moderately attractive.

I wouldn’t call that “with” . . . the sheep just want the crazy lady removed. I can tell.

Cute. Actually, this Gal has rhythm and yes, she can dance.
I could have done with a few less close ups of her face. It’s the kind of mixed theme dancing you would see in a good aerobics class. Her sheep act as an audience or backdrop.
They’re calm around her, as though she normally treats them like pets.

Maybe Martha & The Vandellas can record a new version of an old hit “Dancing With My Sheep!”

Gee, change that “her” in the headline to “his”, and already your mind goes to the worst possible interpretation.

As in the Scottish Rolling Stones: “Hey, MacLeod! Get offa mah ewe!” :P

So a man walks into a bar, and sits down. He starts a conversation with an old guy next to him. The old guy has obviously had a few. He says to the man:

“You see that dock out there? Built it myself, hand crafted each piece, and it’s the best dock in town! But do they call me “McGregor the dock builder”?

No!

And you see that bridge over there? I built that, took me two months, through rain, sleet and scoarching weather, but do they call me “McGregor the bridge builder”?

No!

And you see that pier over there, I built that, best pier in the county! But do they call me “McGregor the pier builder”?

No!”

But you f**k one sheep...
