NATHAN:
Every year the lights have a different theme. One time it was ‘Doctor Who and the Daleks’. Another time, ‘Spirits of Ancient Egypt,’ This year it’s ‘Under the Sea’. But that’s beside the point. The point is the celebrity switcher-on this year was the Master of Mystery – Perplexion. You know who that is? Well, I mean, no one knows who he is in real life. Because he’s a mystery. No one knows where he’s from. Or how old he is. Or what language he speaks, because he hardly ever speaks at all. But everyone knows he is the greatest magician in the world. When Middy’s dad told us that it was going to be Perplexion, we couldn’t even believe him. Why would Perplexion come to Blackpool Tower? ‘Because Blackpool is the home of magic and the centre of the world. Also because he’s just done a massive farewell tour – Moscow, Rome, Berlin, Paris, London – so... why not stop here to turn on the lights before he goes home? That’s all he’s doing. Turning the lights on.’ I said, ‘Is he doing a show? Can we go? Can we MEET HIM?’
