Home Advent Calendar 2017 Day 20: The Paul Daniels Magic Christmas Show, 1980

The Man Who Exhales and his jury in a series of sketches that don't really need the season to work but are given that decoration in a way that's workable. Guests are Harry Blackstone doing his version of the sawing in half routine, a quick change artist and a trick cyclist; bonus points if you spot Lindsey Danvers, later of Toto Coelo, among the assistants (Debbie was already working alongside Paul at this stage but not on every show) No true festive household should be without its own Christmas Bunco Booth.
