From the trick with Simon Cowell’s cherished first car, to making Peter Andre appear from a pack of life-sized human playing cards, Trixy was one of the sensations of this year’s series of Britain’s Got Talent.
In our latest Under The Flyover podcast, hear how it took more than 10 years of hard work, perfecting his craft and skills, for south London electrician Trixy to become an overnight sensation.
Trixy tells of how he got started doing magic tricks with a simple pack of cards when at college.
He explains how he quickly learned how to get paid work doing close-up work at dinners and night clubs, and now aspires to do ever-bigger stage magic acts.
And yet, despite being put through to the final of BGT by Cowell himself, Trixy is still working his day job doing the electrics on traffic lights, and hasn’t yet signed himself an agent.
