ITV - The Magic Show Story (2015) 720p HDTV x264-MVGroup

Magician Stephen Mulhern presents this celebration of 60 years of TV magic shows, from the early days when David Nixon and Tommy Cooper brought magic into the homes of millions to the heights scaled by groundbreaking American stars like David Copperfield and the breathtaking feats of a new generation of hip young street magicians such as David Blaine and Dynamo. He recreates some famous tricks that made TV history - including sawing David Nixon's glamorous assistant Anita Harris in half - and meets some of his heroes, including Paul Daniels and Penn and Teller. There are interviews with Darcy Oake, Dynamo, Paul Daniels, Anita Harris, Penn and Teller, Geoffrey 'The Great Suprendo' Durham and Ben Hanlin.
