The Piddingtons
Sydney Piddington (191829 January 1991) and Lesley Piddington (born 1925) were an Australian husband and wife mentalism team who performed as The Piddingtons and gave one of the most famous stage and radio telepathy acts of modern times.
==History==
Sydney Piddington spent time in Changi Prisoner of War camp during World War II. He discovered that maintaining the morale of prisoners in the camp was essential, and worked with fellow prisoner of war Russell Braddon to develop a mentalism act as entertainment for the troops. During this time, Sydney developed many unique and innovative techniques to give the appearance of mind-reading.
Following the war, Sydney married Lesley Pope, and taught her many of the tricks that he had developed. Together they designed a stage act, and found success on Australian stages.
Soon after, the Piddingtons moved to London, and in time they were signed to present a series of live radio broadcasts for the BBC. Seeking ever-impressive stunts, Sydney masterminded specialized tests to "prove" Lesley's ability to receive secret thoughts even over a great distance.
