Default RIP Paul Daniels

Died today aged 77 - been in news having incurable brain tumour.

Sad to see as I grew up watching him and being amazed by magic in general.

Absolute fantastic talent, His BBC tv show was the most popular magic show for 15 years, something that in this day and age will never be matched......

Huge talent lost RIP

Still known as one of, if not the best "chop cup" routine performers in the world...

To coin a phrase, "And that's tragic".

I remember watching him growing up, in particular, Wizbit. I had the magic kit, so must have been in to it!

Always a shame to see someone in the public eye that has been part of your life, no matter how small, pass away.

Very sad, I cannot believe another well known person has gone this year and it's not even the end of March yet.
