We're back and so is A! The Liars are once again confronted with their past. Can the girls escape their fates before they go ins-A-ne?

Damien O'Brien has become a household name recently performing on shows like Penn & Teller's Fool Us, BGT (where he reached the final) and Killer Magic.  However it hasn't all been plain sailing. Damien was first introduced to magic at the age of 12 by a fellow magician , Damien picked up the craft after learning a few tricks. From there Damien took his unique skill set to the streets to perform for the unsuspecting public. Their reactions were unbelievable, sealing Damien's fate as a professional magician.  He says: “There's no better buzz than pulling off an amazing illusion right under someone. To watch their childlike wonder, there's no other word to describe it but… magical.” Honing his skills as both a showman and entertainer, Damien began gigging in local venues, until 2005, when an impromptu performance outside a London nightclub kick-started a chain of events that would catapult this young star into the big leagues. Using his mystic arts and improvised style of magic, Damien managed to impress a certain club owner, so he would allow this talented young magician into his private party to wow his guest list of celebrities, reality TV stars and talent agents. Needless to say, Damien was a massive hit and was asked to become a regular fixture.  This spurred a domino effect within the showbiz party circuit, where Damien had free rein to showcase his abilities to some of the world's most influential and famous celebrities.

If David Tennant (the tenth Dr. Who), The Amazing Kreskin and Austin Powers somehow shared their DNA to create a character, then I think the result would be Chris Cox. Hands down, Chris Cox is one of the most animated, talented, creative and exciting young mentalists I have ever seen perform. He immediately breaks the “fourth wall” as he engages with his audience and his character is loved, understood and accepted. Touring with “The Illusionists” Chris is “The Mentalist” of the group though for my money he rivaled the hilarity and warmth of “The Trickster” host of the show, David Williamson.
