I went on the show alongside the artistic director of the Cambridge Shakespeare Festival David Crilly to promote the show A Midsummer Night's Dream which I was appearing in at the time. I performed several magic effects on the show and I thought you, my lovely Smoke & Mirrors listeners, might like to hear a slightly different type of radio magic show.

I know many of you have been waiting to hear this one, as Paul is a living legend of TV magic, having been on UK television for a total of 16 years with The Paul Daniels Magic Show and Secrets. Paul was a complete delight to have on the show and we even had a quick impromptu chat with 'The Lovely Debbie McGee'.

An amazing psychological entertainer, Marc and I discussed the art of mindreading, finding out where it came from and how Marc went from being a regular close-up magician to being the ‘World’s Greatest Mindreader’. We also look at performers like the Fox sisters and their spirit medium act and find out why Houdini dedicated so much of his time debunking spiritualists like them. Julia also joins us with the magic news and as always, we’ll tell you where you can see magic in the capital this week. For more information on Marc, check out www.marcpaul.com.

Although you may not recognise his work, you will almost certainly have seen his magic. For example, Paul taught magic to Daniel Radcliffe and the cast of Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban as well as being magic consultant to director Alfonso Cuaron in order to produce some ‘real’ magic in the finished movie. We’ll be looking back through the ages at this side of magic and discussing some of Paul’s heroes, as well as his own illustrious career. We also cover all the upcoming magic that's happening in and around London in The Magic News.
