Ben Earl: Trick Artist

I started watching Ben Earl: Trick Artist tonight. Definitely worth a 4od. Whether magic/illusion/tricks or whatever isn't your idea of a good time, his cheeky grin will work magic making you swoon. What can I say, I fall weak for a magic man.

He is upfront to his audience and viewers at home, about the facts he is using illusions and slight of hand, yet he is still able to amaze and astound. I am a sucker for programs to do with illusions and tricks, but this is on a new level! His honesty about his tricks is refreshing, he clearly scams audience members showing his methods, whilst performing amazing stunts such as catching a bullet, leaping off a moving car and setting himself on fire, in perfect equal measure. He has received a mixed reception, but it's definitely a positive one from me!

His cheeky chappy personality, lovely voice, fab facial hair and fashion sense had me completely dazed, and I spent my Saturday night watching all episodes of the show, 4 hours of his gorgeous face. Four hours well spent if you ask me.

He's like a younger, cooler, less creepy Derren Brown, and my new crush.Yummy.
