[edit] Television career

Colin Fry has hosted a number of television programmes dealing with the supernatural, including Most Haunted, Psychic Private Eyes and 6ixth Sense with Colin Fry, produced by Living TV. The nature of the presented entertainment has numerous critics who assert that he has no supernatural powers and merely uses basic cold reading techniques.[1]Psychic Private Eyes on the Zone Reality channel co-stars fellow psychics Tracy Higgs and Tony Stockwell and purports to conduct "real life psychic investigations into baffling murders and disappearances".[2]


Fry, who at one time performed under the stage name of "Lincoln", was seemingly exposed in 1992 when during a séance the lights were unexpectedly turned on and he was seen holding a spirit trumpet in the air, which the audience was led to believe was being levitated by spiritual energy.[3] Fry has previously rejected an invitation to appear on a television show to talk about the incident and threatened the show with legal action if they mentioned it on their programme.[citation needed]
