After Dinner Speakers: Paul Daniels, Clint Eastwood, T'Pau

Paul's roots are from Teesside in the North-East. From age 11, he began learning magic as a hobby, and performed for parties in his spare time while working as a clerk. After serving his National Service, he worked for the Internal Audit Office but soon he was a full-time magician on the club circuit during the 60s. A string of successful TV series and specials with the BBC led him to win the Golden Rose of Montreux in 1985. As well as the magic programmes, he also presented a triplet of successful game shows. He married his assistant Debbie McGee in 1988. He still performs live, mainly on cruise ships and in provincial theatres.
