TV MAGIC

Then in 2005 they hosted the Friday night comedy series, "Dirty Tricks," a live studio magic show which was nominated for a Golden Rose at Montreux.
Barry and Stuart's magic really effects people. In their 2005 Christmas special, "The Magic of Jesus," the pair raised the dead, walked on water and even made a real honest-to-goodness virgin pregnant… all achieved by demonic forces, of course.

Barry and Stuart perform classical 19th century sleight of hand conjuring with an edge so sharp it could cut the sky.

More magical than Merlin himself, more laughter inducing than a bed full of extremely tickly feathers and more twisted than your DNA, Barry and Stuart are dark, often bloody but above all very, very funny.
