Teenage magician Mark Waddington is under no illusions about his latest achievement – he has become one of the youngest members of the Magic Circle.
The 19-year-old, of Skipton, has achieved a lifelong dream by being accepted into the elite society, which has an international membership of 1,500.
Members have to be at least 18, and Mark is one of only a handful of young members.
