America's most successful magician, David Copperfield has made a Lear Jet disappear, caused the Statue of Liberty to vanish, walked through the Great Wall of China and flown without the aid of wings or strings - and all apparently without camera tricks. He is huge in the United States, reportedly earning more than either Madonna or Michael Jackson.
In October he brings his spectacular and slick show - all dry ice, back lighting and rock music - to London, but by way of a taster this exclusive interview with Jonathan Ross includes not only the master sorcerer talking about his work but also footage of some of his most famous and impressive illusions.

9.15. Regis, who recently broke the British record, is another hoping for a second successive gold when the men's metres gets underway at 9.55. Regis is confident he'll be fit to run despite missing this event in the European
Championships through injury.
The women's 200-metres final, for which Katherine Merry was hopingto clinch a place, starts at 9.35 and the final of the men's high jump, where
England's Steve Smith and Dalton Grant are part of world-class field, begins at 9.45.
