Debbie McGee is to star in her own one-woman show in which she will talk about her career and life with magician Paul Daniels.

The 64-year-old star and Paul - who died in March 2016 at the age of 77 from a brain tumour - were regulars on the BBC and the top of the showbiz circuit for decades after getting together in 1979, with 'The Paul Daniels Magic Show' attracting up to 15 million viewers.
Now, Debbie is going to hit the stage with an array of stories about what life was like as one half of the most successful TV double acts of all time.
In an appearance on YouTube channel Wonderbirds, she revealed: "I haven't stopped working since Paul died, so I can afford to be a bit more choosy, so I'm going to have a bit more free time. I've written show that I want to develop a bit more, it's my own show and I'll be telling stories and things like that. It will have clips and things. I have written it and I've tried it out and it all worked. You know what it's like when you put it on paper, when you get up and do it you feel different things so I need some time. When I wrote it, it was in the pandemic and I had all the time in the world!”
Debbie - who married Paul in April 1988 - hopes that her show can play in theatres and on cruise ships so she can get a free holiday out of her idea too.
The former 'Strictly Come Dancing' contestant added: “I'd like to do a few cruises, so I'm going to see if I can get my talk on a few cruise ships!”
