In this podcast we talk to North Devon’s Merlin Cadogan. He is an international performer who specialises in juggling, escapology and wizardry. 

Many people will recognise Merlin from his appearance on Britain's Got Talent, where he made his way to the live semi-finals. During our chat he talks about his experience on the show and tells us the story behind of what it is like behind the scenes.  

We discover how Merling got the entertain bug working at Woolacombe bay holiday park before becoming a Butlins Red Coat and finally taking his act onto Cruise Ships.

Merlin also has the best A361 story we have ever been told on the podcast. 

He is currently writing his autobiography and a his 2nd book called the Wheelbarrow Boy. You can purchase his 1st book Surf Stories from the Board Rack on Amazon. 

And he talks to us about performing for Tim Burton, being a world record holder, underwater juggling and freediving with Sara Campbell.
