Shortly before Gary's last appearance at Olympia I brought his claim to have worked with "leading medical professionals" to the attention of the relevant Trading Standards office. Today I received an encouraging e-mail from TS officer Andrew Heron:
An interview "under caution"..."any such misrepresentations"...this sounds like serious stuff. Let's hope Gary finally realises that he can no longer make this blatantly false claim. I'll be keeping an eye on the publicity material used for his forthcoming appearances.

Ive got the feeling that the documentary may not turn out the way we hope Gary: Young, Psychic and Possessed(Documentary) BBC 3Channel not right? Click here to customise your lineup... Tuesday, March 24th, 2009 9:00pm to 10:00pm(Other show times...) Twenty-year-old Gary Mannion calls himself Britain's youngest psychic surgeon, channelling a spirit from the dead to operate on the sick. He travels the world to bring his alleged ability to effect miracle cures to a devoted following. Filmmaker Emeka Onono follows Gary as he tries to prove he really does have the power to heal. Emeka hears stories of miracle cures, watches Gary operate and even participates in seances, before turning to science to try to separate fact from fantasy.Stereo, Widescreen, Subtitles uk-tv-guide.com/programme-details/BBC%203/24%20March%202009/21%3A0/Gary%3A%20Young%2C%20Psychic%20and%20Possessed/Documentary/ |

Well, look at this way: if the film turns out to be a free ad for Gary and doesn't mention his phoney "medical professionals", irresponsible advice about Ritalin, two brushes with Trading Standards and ridiculous statements about arsenic-injected oranges etc, we can always rip it to shreds on the Mannion site and make an official complaint to the BBC...

The program maker, Emeka Onono.
I just get the feeling that they will end up with a neutral documentary that doesnt really say one thing or another
