Thank you! That's where I saw him. ...JONATHAN ROSS! Thank you! That's where I saw him. I remember now, he was tossing cards at the camera when I saw him. Not sure how that counts as 'magic' - It's that sort of behaviour that earns my five year-old a telling off and no more High School Musical Uno until she's cleared up the mess.<BR/><BR/>No woosh required, thank you for settling that for me. It was my birthday on Sunday, so clearly getting another year older is playing havoc with my...<BR/><BR/>My...<BR/><BR/>Ummm...<BR/><BR/>Memory. That's it.

He was a guest on something. Not sure if he was any good, I switched over before he started pulling unconvincing fluffy bouquets out of his sleeves.<BR/><BR/>Bloody hell, what did I see him on? That's going to drive me nuts now.<BR/><BR/>Whoever he is, I hope he's a bit more fun than most of these 'street magicians' you see these days. Apparently the Magic Circle has brought in a rule stating that if you perform card tricks to passers-by on a pavement, you must do it in the style of a man who's suffered a bereavement in the last five minutes. I've never seen someone so depressed at correctly predicting a card.<BR/><BR/>Nope, still can't think where I saw him.
