Wend- not really but Paul Daniels has sliced some of his ring finger off whilst making a prop. It mustn't have been a pleasant experience and I think he is on the mend. He was quoted as saying that he might not be able to do some of his act.-jl

Paul Daniels' finger reattached after saw accident
21 January 2012 Last updated at 09:45 Help A surgeon has reattached TV magician Paul Daniels' finger after he cut it off with a saw on New Year's Day.

Daniels, 73, lost his left index finger and the tip of his ring finger in an accident with a circular saw while building props for his act.

He drove himself from his Berkshire home to hospital in Henley-on-Thames, where the index finger was reattached.

Speaking to the BBC, Daniels said that the accident will not affect his upcoming theatre tour, but he has prepared a back-up plan.

"I decided that I had best write a plan A and a plan B. Plan A is that everything is working fine and plan B is that we take that trick out, because I physically cannot do it yet.

"The tour will go ahead - everything will be fine," he added.

Have I missed something? Paul Daniels and Debbie?

Love your son's thinking, btw, Sue :-D

Oooh Janet :-D :-D

Hope Paul Daniels doesn't get into his laptop scanning his ring finger-jl

lolol @ boy scout...errrr...no but he'd have earned a badge for that gem

:-D :-D :-D

Awww lol, was he ever a boy scout? (be prepared) :-D

I was bought a new laptop for my birthday by my children with fingerprint recognition for all my logins and passwords.

When setting this up my son said "Mother, scan your middle finger and register that too"

I gave him a quizzical look and his response.......

"If you lost your index finger you'd be stu**ed*.

What a darling he is.
