In 1937, Fergus Anckorn, at 18, became the youngest ever member of the Magic Circle. When war came in 1939, he gave service not only as a gunner in the Royal Artillery but also as a conjuror entertaining fellow troops. After being captured in the Far East he was ultimately to use his skills to distract the Japanese guards from their brutal slave driving in prisoner of war camps and on the building of the infamous Burma-Siam Railway line. His conjuring both saved his life and very nearly lost him his life. A true survivor, he is today the oldest member of the Magic Circle.
