And this is not the most improbable-sounding injury he's had in the last year.

Last year, he was hit in the eye by a pizza crust (http://"http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/picturegalleries/celebritynews/8678482/Paul-Daniels-injured-in-Sooty-pizza-throwing-accident.html") tossed by a teddy bear puppet (http://"https://www.google.com/search?tbm=isch&hl=en&source=hp&biw=1600&bih=809&q=sooty&gbv=2&oq=sooty&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=16010l16779l0l16988l5l5l0l0l0l0l148l546l3.2l5l0").

Thanks for the story link. Rather bad luck lately, eh? With that photo of him with the cards in his pocket, an odd thought came along (not surprising). Think of what it would have been like if he had hosted Play Your Cards Right (Card Sharks). If he did or didn't like a particular contestant, he could have "magically" changed their cards to create a win or loss. Would have been fun if it could have been proven.
