living as a mentalist for the last 10 years.

A confirmed skeptic, Philip is dismissive of spiritualists, mediums and
astrologers. However, he has a deep academic interest in the reasons why
people need to believe and is an expert in how techniques like
cold-reading are employed by psychics the world over.

Philip is currently previewing his stage show "Six Impossible Things
Before Dinner" in London, before embarking on a month long residency at
the Pleasance Theatre Edinburgh.
