Hey,
I'm not sure if any fellow UKers saw this, but today at 5:30, there was a show called 'Don't Miss A Trick' on BBCTHREE. It starred the cast of The Real Hustle(which includes Paul Wilson, good friend of Lee Ashers).
I watched 10 minutes of it before shooting off to work, and it seemed quite cool, UNTIL they started revealing tricks. They gave DETAILED explanations to various popular tricks such as Daniel Garcia's Joe Blow from his Projects, as well as the Superman Levitation being sold at pubtricks, and that was just in the 10 minutes I watched it for.
I'm not sure if they have permission from DG(it doesn't seem like the type of thing he'd agree to). But if they don't this sort of pisses me off, especially considering Paul Wilson was in it. I would have thought by now he would understand general ethics in magic.
Did any of you guys see this? What do you guys think?
