It must be "ZWIEFACHER" and this is the REAL Bavarian National Dance ! It´s a irregualar change of twostep and waltz steps, and the dance tunes go back to the late middle ages. Unfortunately I can´t identify the tune of this video, but I wonder whether this dance appears at a VICTORIAN BALL at all...

That's zweifacher with an F (or possibly zwiefacher).
(I've only been to one Victorian dance, and I couldn't get a partner for the zweifacher -- grrr...)
