Prince Harry

Britain's Prince Harry tried to "bribe" Dynamo into telling him his secrets.

The 29-year-old royal is a big fan of the magician and was desperate to find out how he pulls off illusions such as levitating people and appearing to walk across the River Thames.

Dynamo - whose real name is Steven Frayne - told the Daily Star newspaper: "Harry is very cool. He came to a performance I did at The Olympics. He was trying to get my secrets by trying to bribe me with the Crown Jewels."

Dynamo has a huge celebrity fanbase and the likes of Coldplay and One Direction appear in the new series of his show 'Magician Impossible', and the illusionist claims he "can't get away" from the 'Little Things' hitmakers.

He said: "They are scallywags. They accosted me at a Tinie Tempah concert backstage four years ago and I didn't have a clue who they were. They were like, 'Dynamo, do some magic for us.' So I did.

"I can't get away from them. So when they asked me to come and do a 1D Day, I tried to claim it as 1Dynamo day."

He also admitted the next series of the programme will be the last.

He said: "It's a good time to come to a close. It is good to leave your audience wanting more."
