You should accept 25 too, since "in centimetres" is already said in the question. Also, isn't "The Notting Hill Mystery" the first English detective novel?

A "danseur noble" doesn't just refer to any male ballet dancer. It means a male dancer at a very high level and/or the male equivalent to the prima ballerina:

The generic term for a male ballet dancer would be "ballerino" (or just "danseur" if you're speaking French):
