A street dance team from Putney has won the Street Dance XXL UK Championship - after three years of being runners-up.

The competition, which took place at Southbank's Royal Festival Hall on Sunday July 17, saw Peridot come top of the 30 teams which competed.

Among these was rival south London team Abyss, who reached the Britain's Got Talent semi-finals.

The 10 members of Peridot will this week represent Britain in a UK vs. USA competition in New York, and are also being filmed for a documentary about street dance airing in August.

The Street Dance XXL UK Championships began in the hall of a secondary school in Battersea in 1995 and has been the launchpad for dance groups Diversity and Flawless of Britain's Got Talent fame.
