In this final program, Fonteyn explores the dancer's life: the rigors of ballet, the rehearsals, preparation, and the moment of judgment when it is "out of the limelight" and on with the performance. Some of Margot Fonteyn's greatest moments on stage are relived in Salut d'Amour which Frederick Ashton created for a gala birthday tribute. The series ends with a complete performance of Ashton's ballet, "Marguerite and Armand," inspired by Dumas' tragic love story, La Dame aux camélias. It is performed by Margot Fonteyn and Rudolf Nureyev. This segment also features Frederick Ashton, Michael Somes and the Royal Ballet.

The first ballet school was founded by King Louis XIV of France in 1669. Fonteyn introduces this program from Louis' great palace at Versailles. She chronicles the monarch's love of dance and traces this art from the courtly dances of 17th-century France to ballet as it is known today. At Drottningholm in Sweden, Fonteyn visits the Court Theatre and observes ballet performed in the original settings and under the original conditions. By contrast, this segment also includes performances of parts of "La Fille Mal Gardée" with Wendy Ellis, David Wall and Ronald Emblen (first performed in 1789 two weeks before the outbreak of the French Revolution) and a more recent French ballet, Roland Petit's "Carmen" (1948), danced by Petit and Zizi Jeanmaire. Other performances include: a Spanish bolero; a scene from "The Little Match Girl" performed by the Dance Academy of the Peking Ballet School; a rehearsal at the Paris Opera; and the Trick Dance from "La Dansomanie."

Dance has always moved freely across borders. In the 19th century, Italian and French dancers journeyed to Russia to make their names. In the 20th century, Diaghilev reversed the flow by bringing the Ballet Russes to live and work in Europe. George Balanchine, a Russian who danced for Diaghilev in the 1920's, established a new tradition of American ballet in the U.S. Fonteyn explores the theme of dance's ebb and flow. She visits Tchaikovsky's house near Moscow and talks to Marie Rambert about Diaghilev. This program includes rare film of Anna Pavlova dancing three of her most famous solos. Other performances include: Carolyn Sinclair, Matthew Hawkins and Sue Nye dancing "Flor and Zephyr;" Wayne Sleep impersonating America's John Durang doing the Hornpipe to show what was popular in America; Fonteyn and Nureyev performing the pas de deux from "Giselle;" Spanish dancing is illustrated with a performance of "Zapeado;" the opening and adagio from "Don Quixote" are performed by Yoki Morishita and Fetsutaru Shimizu; Fonteyn performs in "Sleeping Beauty" and Mikhail Baryshnikov in "Petrushka;" the pas de deux from "Apollo" is danced by Vyvyan Lorraine and Desmond Kelly.
