This programme was suprisingly very, very good. I don't like Geller, but he did Croatia a favour!

Uri Geller is simply weird. The programme told me very little about why one should visit Croatia, it told me more that he is as mad as a hatter. He even thinks he made the bells ring in Split. He must get it from his mum, she advised his daughter not to speak Hungarian when they are in Croatia. You never know what might happen!

It was a rather a bizarre programme, I realise why he is friends with Micheal Jackson! Overall he seemed to love Croatia and I seem to remember him mumbling something about how 'spiritual' it was when he was at the airport ready to leave. I think the comedy highlight had to be when he tried to guess the age of an old ladies dog. His initial punt was 9 years, then he settled at 7.5-9 years. The woman who didn't seem to understand English, gave him a blank look as he peppered questions at her. A girl on a bicycle eventually answered the question, saying that the dog was in fact 2 years old. Cue laughter and Uri trotting off looking a bit sheepish. His explanation for his 'miscalculation' was that the dog was 'stressed', Classic!

I believe that Mr Geller makes irregular television appearances, gets around in person mainly, has his own private jet, and has residences in Israel and Switzerland. As to some of his claims, which he thankfully has not formalised into any belief system, and which are not incompatible with bona fide activity, despite not definitely constituting it, it is clear that reaction may be a valuable counterbalance to some of the worst effects of conscious psychological manipulation through media. If Mr Geller gets elected, however, I would urge former clients to demand their money back.
