The brand new series of “The Magicians” began on Saturday and what a show it was! We literally made history as a full magic show hasn’t been performed LIVE on TV for decades. Pete Firman, Latimer and ourselves either have balls of steel or we’re really dumb!
Working with Daniel Roche and Tyger Drew-Honey, the brothers from “Outnumbered”, was really great. They were both really professional and very keen to learn magic. They perfomed our “Ghost Illusion” flawlessly so we were proud of our little protégés.
Funnily enough, Tyger isn’t too keen on creepy crawlies so doing our coffee trick was a challenge for him. Daniel however, loved chasing after people with handfuls of locusts, worms and other nasties!
We had our close-up trick pulled literally less than 24 hours before we went live as it was deemed “too violent” (what else would you expect from us) so we very quickly came up with the first ever Facebook and trick. Over 7000 people sent us the names of playing cards online and both the show and that trick were the top trending topics on as a result!
