✅Michael Davis I The Paul Daniels Magic Show [1987]

[@shaidyn8278]

The best thing about this bit is imagining, just imagining, how many evenings Michael Davis spent alone in a garage juggling butter and letting it slap him on the face. Over. And over. And over.

[@JustplaY2011]

butter? it was toast wasnt it?

[@BossKernel]

@@JustplaY2011 Did you watch the whole video?

[@AberrantAberrant]

He almost certainly used something of roughly the same size and weight considering that he does it just as well with a less gross object like the bread.

[@shaidyn8278]

@@AberrantAberrant I can't imagine that. Nothing is going to have the grip and slip of butter. It melts the more he touches it, it sticks to his fingers, etc.

"I can't believe it's butter!"

This was great. Everyone can enjoy this type of humor.

Is that his father? Hope your life is going well, pass it on.

[@theonetruerobb4852]

I'm baffled as to how I missed this guy! He's got YT clips from the original Smothers show. I'm a comedy fan pushing 70yo, and I never caught this act? A complete original, really appreciate the dry humor on display. Amazing...

[@FlatSpinMan]

Same. He suddenly popped up a week or so ago while I was looking for magic shows for my little boy. He is just soooo good.

[@gari-ellenbrick4474]

Agreed, fabulous guy

[@cultureofcritique9735]

Good, clean, old-fashioned family entertainment. I miss those days.

The "it's the same axe, I've replace the handle, and the head" joke was also used in Only Fools and Horses, almost a decade later.

[@michaeljames4904]

Watching the Paul Daniels show as a kid was fucking awesome. Now he’s considered a figure of fun in the culture, but at the time he was such a highly regarded magician worldwide, it meant British TV viewers were treated weekly by visits from the best visiting variety acts from across the globe.

[@dodgyb2001]

He was the highest paid entertainer on the BBC at one point, and his show was the number one for a long time, with good reason. He was an amazing talent and comedian, and I for one missed that show when it went off.

[@cliffboulton8763]

[@damn7208]

Best guest act I've ever seen

[@juliestwapa3969]

I'm not a big fan of playing with food (that's an euphemism) but I really like the fact that in the end M. Davis actually initiate to put the butter on the presentator's face, but didn't. I've got the feeling that nowadays, transgression make us laugh, even if it often becomes irrespect. I really love the fact that this was only suggested - so we could all understand what he was about to do. And finally P. Daniel put himself the butter on his face, and it still was very funny, like "I don't want you to be alone on this, let me do this dumb thing too" which is absurd in a way, but way more pleasant to see. (This is obviously my opinion, you may have yours.)
