I've never been especially interested in pickpocketing, but I do have the DVD "Stealing the Show" by James Freedman, which came as part of a bundle years ago.

It's very comprehensive, discussing how to nick all kinds of things from pretty much anywhere on the body. Looks really good.

The official review is here:

Theatrical Pickpocketing by Jim Ravel is very good. And I've heard great things about The Watch Bandit by Steven King.

I've had success with watch stealing but it is not something I enjoy as it requires touching people. And frankly I'm not overly fond of most people.

Pop down to International Magic and they have quite a few Watch Steal videos in their clearance box.

"You're thinking, and I'm afraid I'll have to paraphrase as there are ladies present, 'there is no way he know's what I'm thinking'......I thank you"

Would normally get a laugh and make the idiot feel a little stupid.
