Only just seen this. So they were fooled by a trick that many magicians know? Why the exposure at the start?

Bad exposure. The magicians taking part should have been given a chance to say how they thought they did the mundane helium trick!

The fab John Archer aside, it seems if you want to fool P&T do an average card trick. Obviously cards ain't their thing!

I think the show looked great again well done to graham we was both performing the same night but i thought all the guys done great last night im looking forward to seeing the show next week plus finding out who is on with me on week 3 and be sure to watch Richard Bellars on week 4 amazing trick !

Yeah - RB is gonna blow 'em away this time after getting messed about on the pilot show. Bring it on!

I wasn't expecting the acts to get mixed and matched so much. I'll have to keep a closer eye on the audience shots to see if I can spot myself!

I'm watching the folks just behind P&T - at least four different sets of specs in that show!

Yeah they chopped it up completely, makes sense to get the format right. Can't wait to see my latest effort along with the great performances I've heard have been Put in by all the acts.

It looks to be young and strange performing next week. It will be interesting to see how they have edited together the 'revelation' by Penn. I hope they don't expose it too badly, as i believed it to be very clever

Don't know if this relates to this but during our recording, right at the end, the producer came onto the stage and asked Penn to re-record his 'revelation' to an act on the previous day's show - as his original comments were deemed to be too revealing.....

Guys, spoilers! The backstage info is really interesting, but at least give us lot who didn't watch the recording a chance to watch them without finding out who fooled P&T first

Fair comment... but, in my defence, I have absolutely NO idea what act they were referring to when they re-recorded the comments!!!

According to his Facebook posts James Brown has been dropped from the show after some messing around from Penn that revealed too much. As JB is arguably the best magician in the UK right now this is not good.

Hmmm, I saw the show with James and the end bit with P&T was recorded twice, the first time was a bit too explicit but the second version was quite neutral.
