I saw that interview on its first TV showing and learned a lot from it. Welles was a genius.Came across this and thought it might be of interest...

I didn't realise he had a related background.I saw that interview on its first TV showing and learned a lot from it. Welles was a genius.
I have on video tape an interview with the late Doris Stokes, in which, if correctly recalled, she admits effectively being fraudulent, before realising it was unnecessary.
Oooh, how interesting! Is there any way to share that?
Or at least, give an idea of how the conversation went?
Well there was, apparently, this..Did anyone actually predict the pandemic that has been ongoing this year, reading the Asparagus woman she seems to have missed what surely is the biggest news of the year, it really is no good after the event is it
The psychic then claimed that she will have twins, one of each sex. Twins were born, but both babies were girls, so the psychic got that bit wrong.
In my opinion 99.% of self-confessed mediums / psychics are definitely bogus, however I have written before on this forum, that I used to live in a street where a few doors along, a neighbour claimed to be psychic.
I do remember that once I was standing in a local post office queue, and in front of me, also queuing was a young girl who lived in the next street to mine.
The psychic neighbour entered the post office, and took her place at the back of the queue, but I noticed that she was looking quizzingly at the young girl standing just ahead of me. She then approached the girl and asked that when she had finished with her transaction, could she talk to her outside.
To cut a long story short, I later found out that the psychic had advised the young girl (who she was friendly with) to seek medical advice as she was pregnant.
The girl did as advised, and was shocked to find out she was indeed pregnant.

Still very odd though.
Bit meh, I always thought.They're not so baaad.
It's on a video tape and I am searching for same. I'm sure Doris Stokes does admit to faking early 'readings', or similar. If the tape is still playable, I shall simply video the segment on my mobile and upload it, with a link. Hoping to be able later today.Oooh, how interesting! Is there any way to share that?

What surprises me is how people are so easily duped by this stuff. Another one I've heard people fall for is the "you're going to go on a nice holiday" routine. So the punter goes on a holiday and has a nice time. Therefore the guy/gal is a genuine psychic. As I have blathered on about ad infinitum previously here, my experiences were totally different to this type of stuff.Does this resonate?:
PM=Psychic Medium
AM=Audience Member
PM: 'There's someone over here in the audience that has a connection... I'm getting the letter 'M'.
AM: My mum... Mary?
PM: Tell me about her.
AM: She passed away last year.
PM: Well, she's come through tonight to let you know everything's OK and not to worry.
She's showing me something... it's a ring... she says you will understand.
AM: YES!!! Mum was always losing her wedding ring!!!
PM: She's laughing, does that make sense?
AM: YES!!! Mum would sometimes laugh at the silliest things.
PM: She's now showing me a flower and says you will know what it means.
AM: Mum so loved roses!!! We even planted a rose bush in her garden.
PM: She's smiling and knew you would understand.
Mum's leaving us now and there's another spirit coming through... to my left in the audience I'm getting a 'T' sound, maybe 'T-R', or 'T-O'...
*AFTERMATH*
How was your experience AM?
AM: It was brilliant!!! The medium contacted mum and she was telling him about the rose bush and how we used to laugh when she was always losing her ring when she had a bath. The medium knew everything....

There are so many subjects which can be suggested as either happening in the future, or happened in the past and open to interpretation. To the extent that, if we go back to our Psycic Medium for one last time, even these mundane examples would be sufficient:Another one I've heard people fall for is the "you're going to go on a nice holiday" routine.

Yup, the scene the psychic described was probably a funeral but could also be interpreted as a wedding.Silly me, I don't get it—was it her funeral instead?
Or was it a nice fairy tale for a lonely soul?
