I was reading about that well known psychic, Tracy Higgs.

She was due to do a show at Maidstone last October.

It was cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances.

This is not a joke. You couldn't make it up, could you.

Er,

No you couldn't, but it is funny

lol

That Bad Psychics site is quite good, isnt it :-)

yes, but thers a lot of tongue in cheek humour there as well, lol

Tony Stockwell use to have a regular slot on a Sussex radio station. He use to be a policeman and now helps his friends on the force. He's a very down to earth kind of man with a great sense of humour.

what does he do now Devon...? Is he a psychic?

Yes he is still a psychic ... he tends to do shows around the surrey sussex areas (well he use to anyway). Im not sure about the radio shows anymore.

Hmmm. He may offer advice, but I am pretty sure it will be filed in box 13. Interesting link here :

In 32 years service, I can say that I have been aware many times of 'assistance' being offered by both well intentioned or publicity seeking psychics. The cases included murders, missing persons, even lost property. On not one single occasion was the information of any assistance whatsoever and I am not aware of a single instance where it was in any way accurate at all. That is my own experience.

I think it is safe, therefore, to conclude that the police do NOT work with psychics, contrary to the popular mythology propagated by the professional and celebrity mediums.

Coomon sense dictates - imagine the defence barrister at a trial....'so you got your evidence where officer...? From Mr Zodiac Stargazer...I see....his red indian guide called dancing with knife in back told him........Hmmm.' Turns, looks at the jury and sits down.

Hello Eldrick, yes I remember the programme Psychic Detectives......Tony Stockwell, Colin Fry and a lady, can't remember if it was her or not......

The programme format was, that the 3 psychics were not told of the circumstances of the case, or the sex of the person......anything really.......and the relation or friend of the deceased person would attend, and one by one the psychics would tell them what they knew about the dead person........Tony Stockwell was always the nearest to the truth.....

.......I am getting more sceptical in my old age and cannot believe that they did not know of some of the facts beforehand.......

I must say that I enjoyed some of the programmes, but others were off the mark, sometimes completely.....

......I have an open mind, I would like it to be proved.......my Mum said she would come back to me if she could.......still waiting......

blimmy i remember the psychic detectives...lol
watched it and well, just thought it was entertainment, they really didnt come up with much, as sally says it was a bit off mark...lol

Hi Sally

I remember seeing one or two of the programmes. I thought it was nothing more than very lightweight entertainment, and it did a good job. I quite enjoyed watching them if I remember rightly - the participants played good parts. It was certainly interesting.

But one important point - the TV companies always stress that these programmes are for ENTERTAINMENT ONLY.

To do otherwise would be a breach of the law which forbids persons to charge fees for purported psychic purposes. Otherwise known as the Fraudulent Mediums Act 195....?

Hi Eldrick,
i must say i have mixed feelings on this subject.

There are some programms like most haunted, that are a bit far fetched, like children telling eachother ghost stories to scare themselves.

But then again, there are other people that i think have a real gift.

I think i heard somewhere that in America, psychics work closely with the police and get good results?

Dont quote me on that though.
