3 of Diamonds hahaha you nailed it and it was in rewinding i saw the subtly clues, that is creepy. Nice Nice.
There is a lot of magic around in daily life. One only needs to put aside the calculative mind for a moment.
And those cheap tricksters...magic would be the last thing to find in them.
Where's parts 4-6? Too bad, considering there's only half an hour left of a five hour documentary!

Shazam ! how Fun !
OMG as a magician this is so cool!!
I can't believe someone took the time to capture the magical arts for a doc.
Is it possible to de-materialize and teleport yourself through solid matter?
Is it possible to be in two different dimensions at once?Sure,Houdini did it over a hundred years ago.Marty McFly and the guy in"The Prestige",Mister Spock and Captain Kirk did it.All we have to do is work out the details.Magic doesn't bother with the small stuff.It just shows us that it's possible.
That's what Magic is.The Art of the Possible
I'm only up to Episode 3, 1/6 and so far EP1 6/6 is completely missing and the end of Ep2, 6/6 is cut off at the very end.
Pretty interesting in all though.
I watched the first hour then it got blocked by channel 4 here in the UK, I didn't bother with Anchorfree or finding a direct link to it because in the first hour I had not seen anything that I didn't already know. Maybe I will come back to it at a later date & try to watch some of the other 4 hours of it, if I'm really bored & desperate for something to watch. I didn't think that in this day & age that anyone (except the misguided or uneducated) still believed in magic of any description, I thought that we all knew that it was all just illusions & trickery. I watched it several hours ago & was not going to even bother to comment on it until I read gabbledegook's comment & thought that I would add my own to it. As always, watch it yourselves & draw your own conclusions.
I watched it for a bit excellent tricks but no explanations of how they were done and i didnt fancy waiting 4 hours just to be left wandering could be a good one for debate though !
