Colin Fry (19 May 1962 – 25 August 2015) was an English television personality, entertainer and self-proclaimed medium. He consistently professed his beliefs as a psychic and garnered a following across his career, whilst critics said his capabilities came from cold reading.[1][2]

"Sceptics countered that Fry's main talent lay in basic “cold reading” techniques – the art of analysing body language in order to make high-probability guesses about a person. In 1992 Fry was caught out at a séance when the lights were turned on unexpectedly, revealing that he was still holding a “spirit trumpet” that was meant to be suspended in mid-air."
