The Paul Daniels Magic Show S01E05 Christmas Special

Merry Christmas and welcome to the first Paul Daniel's Christmas Special. We have a few more guest, a bit more magic, a more colour set and, so I'm guessing, a slightly bigger budget. It's really. great to see the famous magic kettle used for the first time - and it's fab. Design by Bob Swadling, this is an update of the Robert-Houdin classic "Any drink call for", but turned up to 11. Also worth watching for the knife throwing act at the end - which is astonishing!
As always, hope you enjoy, and look forward to moving on to season 2 :-)
