Advent Calendar 2019 Day 8: The Paul Daniels Magic Show, 1990



It gets overlooked but Daniels clocked up fifteen straight Christmas specials on the BBC from 1979 to 1993. This year's spectacular took a carnival theme and attached to it Debbie dancing, which she can do, and Paul singing, which... "Everything is not as it seems" is a running theme, as will become more apparent in the closing sequence. There's also a bit where the uploader clearly hasn't realised they accidentally taped over a few seconds, such is the magic of VHS.

MORE OF THE MAN WHO EXCELS: 1980 and 1985 - Debbie gets to dance in that one too
