ITV’s This Morning received a wave of complaints this week after a segment featuring magician Sophie Lloyd didn’t exactly work its magic on viewers. Hosts Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley were fronting the show as usual, but things quickly took a turn during an interview that many found a bit of a snoozefest.
Sophie, who made headlines in 1991 for infiltrating the famously male-only Magic Circle by pretending to be a man, joined the pair to revisit her headline-grabbing stunt. At the time, her disguise was convincing enough to get her in the door, until she was eventually found out and booted from the club. Fast forward several decades, and the Magic Circle has now offered her an apology — and even invited her back, reports the Express.
