From a shy Middlesbrough lad to Britain’s most popular magician, this one-off documentary tells the story of Paul Daniels’ rise to fame

From a shy Middlesbrough lad to Britain’s most popular magician, this one-off documentary tells the story of Paul Daniels’ rise to fame.

A family holiday in 1949 in Yorkshire was where his love of magic began and by the age of 21 he was working the northern clubs with his magic show by night, while grafting for the council by day.

Current Strictly star and Paul’s wife of nearly 30 years Debbie McGee talks about their life and love, as do his three children and a plethora of stars from the magic world including Stephen Mulhern, David Copperfield and Penn and Teller.

A really well-made tribute.
