First time posting but I have lurked for a long time!
Is it just me or did Craig Petty go a bit far taking the mickey out of Mark Mason's accent on the last review? I am all for honest reviews of products but personal remarks are, in my opinion, stooping a bit low. No one ever remarked on Craigs weight before he lost it!
there are many magicians who mock other magicians and to be honest it is all in joke what is wrong with that. how many magicians and none magicians copy tommy coopers "just like that" saying. its like impressionists copying the voices of actors so what is the difference.
there are many people mocking other magicians just last week i saw a vid on youtube of someone taking the micky out of david copperfield and david blaine as long as its taken in the context of good honest fun and not hurting anyone why should it matter
i think there has been many people out there probably have joked on craig pettys weight and i dont think it bothered him because he has achieved his goal in his weight loss and people take him for the magician he is and not the weight.
You are right. Don,t take the mickey. Exhibitionists or illusionists they all do a really good job. Some of the tricks are a bit far fetched but some so easy to do.
I think it was less of a dig at his accent, and more of a dig at the over dramatic praise he gives every effect he dems, just done in an accent similar to Mark's.
