Can anyone tell me the name of the trick where he blindfolded Jonathan Ross and handed him a "blank" deck of cards?

Cheers

It's a routine called Mind Control by Marc Spelmann and Peter Nardi.

We had an email from the producer a week or so ago saying that there had never been plans for a DVD release and that Amazon had some bad information.

Apparently Teller Tweeted the link to the Amazon page so he was certainly under the impression that there woild be a DVD release.

There's a good review of this show in the February 'Magic' magazine.

And if you missed this first show, it's on again tonight:

Penn & Teller: Fool Us
Today at 22:45 on ITV1 Jonathan Ross hosts a one-off spectacular in which world-famous magical maestros Penn & Teller search for the UK's brightest up-and-coming illusionist. Aspiring magicians perform their most baffling trick in front of a studio audience which includes Penn & Teller. If the guest magician manages to fool the grand masters of magic, he or she will win a five-star trip to Las Vegas and the opportunity to perform in the duo's legendary stage show. Plus Penn & Teller themselves take to the stage to exhibit some of their most mind-blowing stunts and routines. HD REP

And for anyone who's been on Mars (or a guest in one of Her Majesty's more 'secure' institutions!) for the last few years and hasn't seen this, it's on again tonight!
