Theres a nice little clip of Derek Acorah being conned here :-)

As well as a psychic surgeon called Stephen Turroff.....

I missed this programme when it was out - I would imagine it would have made good viewing!

Eldrick, I'm beginning to suspect that psychics aren't your favourite people. ;-)

As for conmen - this clip is impossible to beat. Absolutely hilarious.....Nigerian scammers that were persuaded to re-enact the Parrot sketch from Monty Python....it creases me up.

That's a pity, I was going to give Eldrick a hug, but if he doesn't want a hug well that is his loss.

Perhaps he's still smitten with the young lady at the post office.

I wonder if he'll accept a hug from the lady at the post office.

(I'm going for hayley's version - Hayley said it was the post office and she's always right)
