I got ER only from previous CCCs. I was trying to fit it with some synonyms of dance/tango and suddenly I tried T-ER and I found a synonym starting with it. Unlike others, my way of solving CCC is to identify the answer part first. That's not the way it works in general, but it works for me.

Blimey. That was excellent. I had ER and SATES and couldn't see what else was in there. Mind you, I've never come across this word before, so it's not one my mind would jump to.
An excellent clue DD - and another word to add to the arsenal.
