scottsdad Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 (edited) Last night's Storyville on BBC4 - Exposed: Magicians, Psychics and Frauds. It was on late last night, and kept me up. Fascinating - a former magician with a hatred of people trying to con the public, like faith healers and so on. So he spent decades exposing them. He thought he had ended Uri Geller's career once, having shown hip up on the Carson show, but he came back. Really, really fascinating watch. The way he took down the faith healer ("Let the power of Jesus melt those cancer tumours away!") was brilliant.

Just another talentless nobody that the hard of thinking are hell bent on making rich with hits and likes. Or something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Good Fight is a more than worthy follow up to The Good Wife. Both brilliant dramas. Edited June 30, 2018 by glassnahalf 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's brilliant! Randi is a top boy. Love how he took down all the frauds and tricked the US military. It also made me hate Uri Geller even more.
