Cooper

Cooper Poster

The incomparable master of muffed magic returns with this six-part series from 1975. There are rope tricks, rabbit tricks, even a jacket-and-shirt trick... if you're quick enough to catch them, that is! Tommy is joined by the lovely Lynsey de Paul, who supplies a song for each show, and stalwart assistant David Hamilton - who also doubles up as an in-depth interviewer to probe the great man's mind in 'Fez to Fez'. Other stars risking their reputation include Victor Spinetti and Dandy Nichols - as a strange pair with a very odd way of making ends meet - and Ian Hendry (The Lotus Eaters), who realises 'it's not a question of guessing what Tommy's going to do next - it's a question of guessing what he's doing now!'
