Just wanted to flag this post up, there are people exposing methods under youtube videos posted of the bbc magicians programme.
Ok so lots of you hate it, but we still don't want the show exposed.
Maybe someone knows someone at the bbc who put these up, and can write to ask them to be taken down.

click the link above for more info.

I dont think the comments are the bad. There is always an element that will guess , try to work out how any effect or illusion is done. What amaze me is the mentality of these people and there response it is at time l;aughable. "It is a trick" They spoilted it for my childre because it was not reall magic." It is as if these people have just been told father christmas is not real. Did they realy believe that magic really is magic and that tricks are not used.

If these people have nothing better to do than try and think they are clever by saying mirrors are used they really need to get a life. I don't think we should waste our time and effort on them.

Exposure is a part of magic. Get over it.

As i told the guys at About, i have sent something through to the media person at the BBCregarding this, but i can 100% guarentee that nothing will be done. It is just not in their interest to do so. Live safe in the knolwedge that at least 99% of the guesswork, is wrong, and that the bits the guessers get right, are so boring or obvious that nobody will really care.

As Tony said.
and 99% of laymen won't be searching over the internet the exposure of a trick, they just don't care, and the 1% is magicians, or curious laymen.
