Jamie Raven's Lemon Had A Huge Hole in it
Could see from the over head camera.
I don't think the camera men like him very much Maybe he had been re enacting American Pie with it earlier (?) |

He reached into a bag and pushed a note into a lemon with a gaping hole in the back.
This is after doing the invisible deck trick, available from all good Magic shops for around £5 Utter garbage |

I've seen three different posters call his trick crap and give 3 different suggestions for how it was done. Two of them have to be completely wrong then.

I'm quite surprised that he's in the last 3 as he has done nothing that hasn't been done a million times before.

Why did he tell alesha not yo touch the box, and yet the magician took the bag out himself? If he was good, he could have got it in the lemon without taking the bag himself. In the end, it was awful |

No word on how the note changed in his hands then? Bore off.
He did an off the shelf trick costing 5 pounds that you yourself could learn in a few minutes. It's called invisible deck, Google it. His second trick ( he only had two) was awful. A palmed note, and he pushed it into the back of a lemon when it was, wait for it, in a bag! And that was it. It was absolutely dire. |

If it was such a rubbish trick, good magic shops wouldn't be selling it and people wouldn't be buying it.
However, magicians usually put their own take on it instead of just copying the dvd that comes with the gimmick deck. No talent is needed, just £5 |

Back to the opticians for you. He changed the BGT note into a piece of paper with "Look in the box" written on it with empty hands.Quote:
A palmed note, and he pushed it into the back of a lemon when it was, wait for it, in a bag! So based on what you didnt see where did the BGT signed note go to. And that was it. It was absolutely dire. Your opinion he was dire but then you werent even watching properly.

So you think that magicians should to the physically impossible?
You do get that they have to do it some way? I can't believe some of the stuff I read on here. It was so bad, I'm sure it was actually a mistake and he had to go to plan b. If this was his best trick, on the final of the biggest tv talent show, then I'm embarrassed. |

In the end, it was awful We all know it's a sleight of hand but some of us enjoy it for what it is without trying to analyse it. I think he deserved to come second and I hope he makes a career from appearing on the show. |

I am sick of seeing the same old stringing a bunch of words together with some kind of melodic tune
its so old, centuries or further, anyone can do it and it doesn't even cost a penny Why are people so bitter ? |

Im well aware of the trick thanks.
Back to the opticians for you. He changed the BGT note into a piece of paper with "Look in the box" written on it with empty hands. So based on what you didnt see where did the BGT signed note go to. Your opinion he was dire but then you werent even watching properly. ![]() And he did not have an empty hand, it was palming. He palmed it well, but I'm pretty sure he messed up getting the note into the lemon. The gift he gave Alesha was a box. Inside that was another box, and inside that a bag. I am absolutely certain he did not want to touch that bag. But he did, took it out and put his hand inside, and after 5 seconds of fumbling, pulled out a lemon. I'm sure he should have got the note in the bag through the back of those boxes, but he screwed it up big time. |

Perhaps next year you could enter and show us how real magic is done. If a talentless magician can be runner up you would be a shoe in for the title.
But you, yes you, could walk into a shop and buy his tricks and perform them within half an hour. Is that a talent? We forget in the semi final he dropped his cards, fluffed hus lines and took zero part in the half helicopter reveal |

Even though you have no idea how its done or could see what was happening ! Riiight.Quote:
