Any thoughts on how Mark Spellman pulled this trick off last night?

Simon Cowell's got fat hasn't he?

Also how he does it is someone offstage is getting the right videos ready during the apallingly cynical tear-jerky bit about his daughter. There'll be one of the kid with a penguin, another with a giraffe, another with a unicorn etc etc.

The real magic trick is Ant McFucknuts still being on telly despite putting lives at risk by driving drunk because he was sad about his wife making the entirely sensible decision to leave him.

the Rubix cube has to be a rigged box too. It's very well done tho, horribly tear-jerky, but perfect for that audience.

I hope the kid grows up, sees this video and decides to never speak to her parents ever again. I would find that profoundly funny.

this is the cynical exploitation of a cancer survivor and an illegally adopted child from a war zone
The rubicks cube reveal could be a powerpoint slide (or whatever) with the colours dropped onto it by the offstage assistant whilst hes jerking our tears.
The crayon and pet could also be last minute selection of possible one in four by same offstage person although looked like the card may have been sleight of hand. The pen works when held the proper way (in case tested) but upside down the ink is blocked and does not write and the mark is already there.

The cube is easy. The box he drops it into is prepared with stickers that attach themselves to the face that will be revealed.
Inspect the cube and peel off the stickers on the top face you’ll see the original stickers.

Magicians are so tedious. All that faffing about with crayons and cards and shit. I'd rather watch the washing machine go round.
Load of bollocks.

The rubix cube though?....he'd have had to have the child pull quite a few* combinations on film to get that right.
*As in shitloads.
Eta...just read previous post by Gromit which makes sense....

That would show up if there happened to be a yellow sticker one of the eight squares adjoining one of the five yellows on the top. Seems too easy to spot.

The book is probably full of the same page with hat marked...and the go to doesn't write anything.
Nobody checked the book..
Also the cards might only have a combination of 4 or 5 pictures...
Red crayon...the child probably plays with all the crayons and it could be a box of a selection of 4 colours.
It's a bit shit as a trick.
In fact it's a lot shit.
Cos it's bloody depressing too.

Watched it back in slow motion.
She hands him cube with a red middle sticker on the top. He puts it and it comes out later with no red in the middle.
Definitely some stickers have been stuck.

So it doesn’t just do the top but the top row sides too. Easy.
