Frankie Manning revealed yesterday that he was never a member of the Whitey’s Lindy Hoppers.
“I made it all up,” Mr Manning said yesterday, “I wanted to be famous. I just thought it would be more fun than working for the postal service. Nobody got hurt. It was a victimless crime.”

Members of the Swing Dancers’ Action Group have called for Manning’s removal from the Lindy Hoppers’ Hall of Fame.
