After 30 years under the spotlight, it would be no surprise if Uri Geller had lost some of the sparkle - and that seemed the case in Malvern.
In recognising the mystical source of his success, Uri gave space to spoon bending and watch fixing but concentrated on analysing his life and persuading the audience to use optimism to improve theirs.
His philosophy is interesting if a little patronising, but he came across as sincere and honest.
He talked openly about a number of subjects including killing another man during an Israeli conflict and his friendship with Michael Jackson.
He is raising money for children's charities on the tour. With an ad-hoc auction of a signed bent spoon he raised £1,250 for Acorns Hospice Trust on Saturday.
