    This is one of the best series that RTE have ever produced. It is like David Blaines magic and he goes around Henry Street and other places in Ireland doing unbelievable magic tricks. Its over in about 3 minutes so you might catch one or two tricks if you swith on now.

    I've been told it's a good show orite. I haven't got around to watching it myself yet though. :(

    I'll try to remember it next week.

    great show alright, i've only seen 2 episodes so far.
    definitely a series i'd love to see in it's entirety

    Just caught it tonite - he's a lot better than I expected. I thought, it being RTE, he'd be pulling rabbits out of a hat :D

    Looks like next week he'll be doing a trick with DEAN CAIN: star of THE NEW ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN!!!!!

    Bejaysus...

    He keeps doing that mind reading trick every week though - want to smack in the side of the head when he does it.

    Does anyone else find Keith Barry an extreamely arrogant and irritating individual, or is it just me? Personally I much prefer Derren Brown's shows!

    I reckon it's trickery. Wouldn't trust that fella one little bit.

    Agree with you 100%. He comes across very smug and arrogant. I only lasted wathing him for 5 minutes and I wanted to give him a smack. He's a poor mans David Blaine. I'd actually rather watch David Blaine do another 44 days in a box before I'd watch Keith Barry again.

    LFCFan, It's a relief to know that someone else feels the same way. However I hate David Blaine far more so I wouldn't go quite as far as you to avoid Keith Barry.

    Yep have to agree...I find him too arrogant to watch the programme!

    Ok, that was a bit of an exaggeration but I still hate Keith Barry's show. It's sooooooo boring aswell as the star being a gobsh1te

    I think he is rubbish, looks like he got his tricks from the back of a Rice Crispys box. If you want to see a true master at work Derren Brown's your man.

    What channel and time is he on? I saw his russian roulette trick and well I dunno about him either, but wouldn't mind seeing him again.
