Uri Geller to prove his powers

Spoon-bending entertainer Uri Geller was set to appear before the august Oxford Union debating society on Wednesday to prove he really is a psychic, the union has announced.

Geller (58) has offered to fix, under the watchful eye of a special camera, any broken watches that members of the union may have, in order to convince sceptics that he is a true psychic.

“Uri Geller is quite simply the most famous alternative entertainer in Britain and it is an honour to have him at the Oxford Union,” said the union’s vice-president, Vlad Bermant, ahead of the evening appearance.

The Oxford Union, associated with Oxford University, has been an oratorical training ground for generations of British politicians.

Previous guests have included three former US presidents, the late Mother Theresa and pop star Michael Jackson, a close friend of Geller’s.
