Described by Leyland Times as a "financial wizard" in the company, Brian Sefton is also a highly gifted amateur magician who has won the top award for magic, the British Ring Challenge Shield, and the IBM Shield for "manipulation." To do so he had to impress the judges and an audience of 2,000 at an international convention with a 10-minute sleight-of-hand act in which he concentrated on illusions with cards and billiard balls.
No amount of juggling with Leyland finances is, however, likely to win anyone a prize. Michael Edwardes may be the best wizard yet, but no magician can hope to succeed when his associates are constantly removing his props.
