INTERVIEW OF JONATHAN ROYLE FOR MAGICSEEN
“ALMOST A MAGICIAN”
(How Royle Accidentally Became a Professional Stage Hypnotist)
What did you get up to during lockdown?
To keep myself occupied during the Pandemic, I set up my Hypnosis Week Podcast and have now interviewed almost 100 experts for the show.
These experts have included Stage Hypnotists, Hypnotherapists, Body Language Experts, Spiritualist Mediums and even Magicians & Mentalists all of whom I have managed to get to share invaluable advice, experiences and knowledge, that when followed can help anyone become a far better Hypnotist and in many cases also a better Magician or Mentalist.
Indeed the interviews I’ve done with Legendary Svengali Deck Pitch Artiste Mark Lewis and the one I did with House of Illusion Founder Rodney James Piper are full of Gold for Magicians & Mentalists as is my show with Magician Spyros Melaris about the Psychology behind his Alien Autopsy The Greatest Hoax of all time which can all be watched or listened to free of charge at www.hypnosisweek.com
I’ve also kept myself busy by converting loads of old live show and Television performance footage from over the past few decades from VHS tapes to digital format and added tons of Magical, Mentalism & Hypnosis clips and videos to my CelebrityHypnotist You-Tube Channel located at www.youtube.com/celebrityhypnotist
You started off in magic and got into hypnosis by accident?
Yes it’s true I never intended to make my name or the majority of my career as a Comedy Stage Hypnotist & Hypnotherapist.
I was born into a travelling Circus Family and as such started performing aged 3 and a bit as Flap the Clown on Gandey’s Circus with my dad Les-Le-Roy aka Tizzy the Clown and by the age of 8 was performing Magic in professional shows.
But along the way I learnt Hypnosis to help myself overcome the depression caused by bullying of which I was a regular victim of at School due to being seen as “the odd one out” as the Circus Kid.
By the time I was about twelve I was doing a Dove Production Act and also a full Box Illusion act on my family’s Circus Showtime shows, on Olde Time Music Hall style theatre Variety Shows and at events like The Royal Lancashire show in the VIP tent where one of my Doves flew off and spent around an hour flying around shitting into everyone’s drinks from above.
I always intended to be a full time Magician and Illusionist once I left School, and indeed had a tour of Holiday Parks lined up as part of an Illusion Double Act with my good friend David Arkay from Cumbria which I had to withdraw from at the last minute because my Hypnosis Career took off unexpectedly and rapidly.
How exactly did your Hypnosis Career take off then?
Well for some reason in December 1992 I decided to write to the Cult British TV Show “The Word” which was shown late on Friday nights on Channel 4 here in the UK and suggested to them they should book me Britain’s Youngest Professional Magician, Mentalist & Hypnotist to appear on the show.
Much to my surprise they got back to me almost immediately as it turned out that in early January 1993 they were having a Battle of the Hypnotists Competition on the show and ultimately that led to me appearing alongside Hypnotist Peter Powers and as a result of that appearance being given a residency at a Night Club in High Wycombe and a whole bunch of other opportunities came my way and it all just kept snow balling from one thing to another and next thing you know its 2022, I’m fast approaching my 47th Birthday which is in August and it seems I left my dreams of being a full time Magician behind in favour of the Hypnosis opportunities that suddenly came my way.
I shouldn’t complain about it really as Hypnosis has ultimately enabled me to travel, perform and teach all around the world and also allowed me to buy my own home outright for cash with no mortgages or loans required before my 30th Birthday, but I do regret massively not following my childhood dream of concentrating fully on all things Magical.
You did still keep doing some Paid Magic & Mentalism shows though didn’t you?
Yes now and again I still did the odd bit of Magic or Mentalism, mainly on Television Shows around the world including of course in 2001 filming my Six Part Surreal Comedy European Television Series in Amsterdam called “Life in the Bus Lane” upon which I recently acquired the legal rights to and as such have now made available for all to watch free on my website of www.magicalguru.com
Oh and of course along the way I invented tons of Mentalism Routines and put together a full evening Theatre Show showcasing them all which I called Egg, Sausage & Peas or ESP for short and I was delighted that show got positive rave reviews from many big names in the Magical and Mentalism community including such comments as
“Having Watched Jonathan Royles Egg Sausage Peas Show I can honestly say it’s unique. With Psychic Belly Button Reading being the main hook of the first half around which the Mind Reading experiments are presented, this is most definitely not your conventional kind of Mentalism show. However Royle has some unique, creative and entertaining takes on such classics as the Chair Test, ACAAN, Hoys Tossed Out Deck and the Russian Roulette Plot which are certainly worth a closer look and take them to the next level. At times he had the audience on the edge of their seats and overall this show was top notch” Peter (The Perceptionist) Turner
What are some of the Magical Highlights of your Life & Career to date?
It was amazing at 4 years old to perform the Head Guillotine Illusion numerous times a day with my Dad on the front of the Paul Daniels Magic Museum which was on the Golden Mile in Blackpool in order to attract a crowd to then persuade them to pay to go into the walk around interactive Magical show which you could kind of say was a Circa 1979/1980 scaled down version of what my Friend Jamie Allan has done recently with his truly amazing Illusionarium & Magic Immersive attractions in the USA.
Another highlight has to be in 1991 when I sold literally thousands & thousands of Svengali Decks and tons of other Marvins Magic Sets and tricks when I became (at the time) their youngest ever demonstrator and in the Bolton Debenhams store that Christmas I regularly sold more than any of the other store demonstrators did including even those in the London Stores like Hamley’s. My book on how I managed to achieve what to many would seem an impossible task called The Art of The Perfect Pitch (Selling Magic Tricks for Big Profits) is available to download from all Magic Dealers and in paperback from Amazon.
In recent years I have discovered that Svengali Pitch Man Mark Lewis had the Magical Sales Concession inside the Paul Daniels Magic Museum and so it turns out I bought my first ever Svengali deck from him and then in 1991 I was taught his Svengali Pitching Secrets & techniques by one of his students Adam Harmes who was working for Marvins Magic at the time when Mentalist Marc Paul was officially my boss.
What Are you Most Proud of Achieving Magically?
I guess one of the things I’m really proud of magic wise is that along with Jamie Allan & David Arkay I helped to devise, then have built a method of Impaled on a Sword illusion that enabled you to see through the base and had no electronics or mechanics that could ever go wrong in performance. Collectively we sold and supplied this prop to Simon Drake and he used it on his UK Secret Cabaret Live Tour and also at the end of the Rock Group Iron Maiden’s “Raising Hell” Farewell show which was syndicated on Television all around the world and meant that our version of Impaled illusion was seen by many millions more people in one night than any living Illusionist is ever likely to be seen performing any version of it ever again.
What Are your biggest regrets Magically?
My biggest regret is not going on that Holiday Park Tour with David Arkay and seeing where our Illusion & Magic Double Act would have taken us and what else that could have led to.
My second biggest Magical regret occurred when I delivered the Impaled Illusion prop to Simon Drakes house in London and whilst there he convinced me to write a letter and send it to the Magic Circle outlining all the cock ups I’d witnessed over the many, many dozens of times that I’d watched Russ Steven’s truly Amazing Mystique show in Blackpool.
He (Simon Drake) ultimately manipulated me into wording the letter so it sounded like everything had happened in one performance and thus things were largely out of context and things sounded way worse than they ever were.
Despite me not being a Magic Circle Member, the letter bizarrely got published by the Magic Circular and not surprisingly upset Russ Stevens greatly who had been a great friend and Magical Mentor up to then.
So ashamed I was at allowing myself to be manipulated and used in this manner that it took me until 12th October 2012 (around 20 years later) to apologise to Russ, an apology I would sincerely like to make again here and which can also be found on my blog page connected to my website www.magicalguru.com
Direct link to my Personal Public Apology to Russ Stevens is here:
Have you Ever Lectured for Magic Clubs or Conventions?
Yes indeed, I lectured at all but one of the Southern England Magic Conventions in Bournemouth and also was lucky enough to appear on one of the Gala Shows alongside the late Alan Shaxon and the Legend that is Fay Presto.
I’ve also lectured Three times at The Order of the Magi, Englands 3rd Oldest Magical Society and on each occasion my lectures had among the highest attendance of any events in the clubs recent history and in all cases led to positive rave reviews of the Original Magical and Mentalism material that I shared at each of them.
In fact one of them was filmed and is available as an Instant Download from all Magic Dealers.
Have you ever contributed articles to Magic Magazines?
During the 90’s I had my own monthly column in my former stage name of Alex-Le-Roy entitled “My Way” in Supreme Magic’s Magigram Magazine and I also had regular articles appear in Repro Magic’s Club 71 Magazine.
In more recent years my contributions were to other peoples books rather than magazines (with the exception of Mentis a Mentalism magazine) and my ideas have been published in such books as Killer Konceptions by Kenton Knepper & Mental Epic Compendium by Paul Romhany to name but two of many off the top of my head.
So yes but not for many years, I really should do something about that real soon and get contributing routines to magazines again.
Have You Ever Entered Any Magic Competitions?
During the brief time that I was a member of the Order of the Magi I entered the Cabaret Competition and the Close-Up Competition and won them both as well as winning the Sly Smith Shield for Best Card trick and thus I held all 3 awards at the same time but I’ve not competed in any since them which were in 2016.
Who are your biggest influences?
Magically my mentor, adviser and teacher from around 1987 was the late Jack Griggs who was for many years the Editor of the British Ring of the International Brotherhood of Magicians (IBM) magazine “The Budget” which has now been renamed “Key Ring”.
Unfortunately Jack passed away on 6th January 2019, I was honoured to be able to present a Broken Wand Ceremony at his Funeral and feel proud to have inherited all of his Magical artefacts including a Silver Tankard which he was awarded in 1976 for Bravery by The British Magical Society in recognition of him stopping an armed robbery by 3 armed men during his work as a Police Officer in Manchester and his award making him a Fellow of the Order of the Magi among other to me priceless treasures.
Following his death, I released two of Jack Grigg’s Magical inventions which he kindly left to me, namely his “Chinese Mat Magical Production” and his “Visible Coins through Glass” through Murphy’s Magic.
Obviously Paul Daniels was also a major influence and inspiration to me and I was lucky enough to spend quality time with him on many occasions whilst he was alive.
Also sadly no longer with us the Late Bill Thompson who ran the House of Secrets in Blackpool always gave me great advice over the years such as encouraging me to invest into books rather than the latest Magical Gimmick, Gizmo or Prop.
As for influences who are still alive today, I think Fay Presto is one of the finest performers in the industry, and Wayne Dobson, David Copperfield, Max Maven & Jeff McBride along with Penn & Teller are all true Living Legends who I admire and respect greatly.
I also really enjoy Derren Brown’s output especially some of his TV work which I know includes some odd bits of ideas from some of my Hypnosis training videos most all of which Objective Productions and many of Derren’s advisers have purchased over the years.
Hypnosis wise the Late Dr. Brian Howard who was also known as a Mentalist under the name Hobrin and also the Late Delavar are my main 2 influences.
Why did the Magic Circle Cancel Your Advertised 2017 Lecture?
Well the full story behind the madness that occurred was published by The Jerx on their blog on 26th June 2017 and can still be read on the Jerx’s site, but in short some people complained about me having been booked (who frankly should have known better) on the basis that they objected to me having a book out called Hypnotism & Sex and also on the basis of many untrue defamatory rumours that some vindictive idiots have spread about me over the years on the internet.
Tell us briefly about the on-going court case (not too much info as our US readers won’t have a clue about it) involving Media Mogul Rupert Murdoch?
Well for those who don’t already know about the nonsense defamatory and illegally distorted story that the now shut down & disgraced for Hacking the Phone of Murdered School Girl Milly Dowler British Newspaper The News of the World published about me in 1998 the full details and facts are on my site at www.circusofthemind.net
In short my attempt in 1998 to expose the dishonest and often wholly illegal actions of News of the World Reporter Mazher Mahmood aka “The Fake Sheikh” backfired slightly and landed me with two 6 month Prison Sentences which ran concurrently.
Fast forward to 2022 and in January I was in the Royal Courts of Justice in London appealing against my convictions which are now currently being considered by the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) and I am now extremely confident that due to all the new evidence I’ve obtained in the past 12 months or so my convictions will be overturned in the very near future,
Also as proof has now come to light that Private Investigators were used to intrude on my privacy and Illegal Phone Hacking was carried out on me I have started Civil Proceedings against Rupert Murdochs News UK in the High Court to obtain substantial damages.
This attempt to expose the “Fake Sheikh” in 1998 is ultimately also responsible for many of the untrue & defamatory lies that have been posted about me over the years on the internet.
Have you changed over the last 10 years? You’ve been quite controversial – have you mellowed?
All areas of my life (both personal and business) and my attitude & approach to them massively changed on 16th August 2009 when my now 12 year old daughter Ashleigh Alexandra Louise Smith was born.
I’ve finally realised what the most important things in life are such as spending quality time and making memories with Family and Friends.
And I’ve also realised as several of my closest friends and some family members have passed away over the past few years including my long term business partner Peter Hill who ran all the product sales end of my projects that life is too short to give up on your dreams and that is why I am starting to do more and more in the areas of Magic and Mentalism again, although these days I’m too old to be doing the Stage Illusions as that is a young persons game!
Tell us a bit about your family?
Well my amazingly patient wife Rachel is a hugely talented Memory Magic Expert and indeed features on the Memory Magic Video training set I have out through Murphy’s where she demonstrates and then teaches The Knights Tour, Various Magic Squares and a whole bunch of other amazing Maths and Memory Feats in her maiden name of Rachel Houghton.
And my daughter is what they call in Musical Theatre a Triple Threat as She is extremely talented in Dance, Drama & Singing. In fact she also is talented in playing several musical instruments and yes does a little bit of Magic as well. She’s done a fair bit of Television and film work in recent years and indeed played the part of The Curious in the BAFTA Award Winning BBC & Netflix Kids show “Creeped Out”. You can see her in action on her Facebook Fan Page www.facebook.com/entertainerashleigh
I am extremely proud of them both and thankful for having them both in my life and how they patiently put up with the madness that is living with me, I’m truly a very lucky person indeed.
Which effects do you always do in close up?
When I do Close-Up I always like to perform Chinese Poker by Mo Howarth as it is one of the most visually Magical Packet Tricks out there and indeed so impressed I’ve been with the reactions it has got me over the years that when I got the chance to purchase the rights to sell the trick from Kevin Potter of Aladdins Magic in Stockport who the Late Mo Howarth had sold the rights to in recent years after many years earlier licensing it to Ken Brookes Magic Place I jumped at the chance and its now available as a download from all Magic Dealers.
I also love the impact that Metal Bending of Spoons and Forks has on people, do that along with a little bit of Character Analysis style Cold Reading and you are guaranteed to be talked about more than any other Magician who may also be performing in the room at the same time.
What is your Favourite Stage Magic or Mentalism Routine?
Without a doubt it has to be a routine that I devised (with the help of my wife Rachel) which is now available from all Magic dealers under the name of “Ashleighs DVD Comedy mentalism book test” and if you type that name into You-Tube you will see performance videos of me presenting what without fail has always got me a Standing Ovation.
The routine was inspired a trick called “The Red Carpet” by Ari Soroka as released by Jason Palter but it is oh so much more powerful and has FOUR separate massively powerful reveals built into the routine which is based around an emotionally charged story about my daughters bedtime ritual as a toddler.
What was the last thing you released?
The most recent thing I’ve released Magically via Murphys is entitled “Almost the Berglas Effect – Numerous Real World Solutions to ACAAN the Any Card at Any Number Plot” by Jonathan Royle, Robert Temple & Stuart Harrizon Cassels and it really does contain several truly commercial methods for use both on Stage and in Close-Up situations of this amazing miracle style effect. What Are Your Magical Ambitions?
Oh there are so many! I’d love to Lecture and also perform at The Blackpool Magic Convention, I’d love to share a bunch of advice on how to build & sustain a Showbiz Career on Craig Petty’s excellent Magic TV You-Tube Channel & I’d love to do a Penguin Live Lecture sharing a combination of my Magical, Mentalism & Pseudo Hypnosis routines and Techniques. But ultimately overall it is to get back more involved in Magic, both performing it more and also creating and releasing more items through Murphy’s Magic who already distribute around 200 of my Products to all the main Magic Dealers.
What is your biggest strength as a performer?
I think one of my biggest strengths is being truly adaptable thanks to the experiences I’ve had over the past 43+ years of performing in every imaginable venue. Over the years I’ve performed Magic, Mentalism and/or Hypnosis Shows surrounded in the Circus Ring, in front of many thousands at The G-Mex Exhibition Centre in Manchester, at Shopping Centres, in Schools & Nursery’s, in Theatres across England, on Cruise Ships, at Holiday Camps, at Corporate Events, in rough Pubs and Working Mens Clubs, at High Class Hotels and numerous times on Live Television and Radio shows around the world among just a few of literally every possible kind of venue and audience demographic and age ranges you can possibly think of. Very little if anything ever phases me now as quite frankly if it can go wrong it has done at some point and I’m now ready if those things ever happen again!
What was your most memorable TV spot?
Oh so many to choose from, but I have to say I’ve always enjoyed the TV Shows where I’ve been demonstrating my unique creations of Pawology (Psychic Dogs Paw Reading) and/or Navel Gazing (Psychic Belly Button Reading) as these I always present tongue firmly in cheek and with a touch of humour and yet its amazing how accurate my readings & revelations always seem to be and what impact they have on people. I went Viral on Twitter the day I was on ITV’s “This Morning” magazine show reading Celebrity Belly Buttons in the Studio and it really annoyed some jealous members of the Magicians of Facebook Group who posted angrily about it.
You Once Claimed to be a Genuine Psychic Didn’t you?
OK yes it’s true, back in the very late 80’s & early 90’s (my early teenage years) I was performing as Alex-Le-Roy presenting an apparently genuine Theatre Show of Stage Clairvoyance called “Bridges From Beyond” and International Publication “Psychic News” dubbed me the New Uri Geller and Doris Stokes rolled into one. I stopped doing them after a couple of years though as frankly my conscience got the better of me and also one night my mind played tricks on me shortly after my Granddad had died and I thought I saw him stood at the side of the stage which scared the shit out of me to be honest. I remember fondly telling the Late James Randi about it all (much to his amusement) when we spent much time together at the 2009 Blackpool Magic Convention.
What’s the Most Ridiculous Thing you’ve ever done?
Oh that one’s easy and without a doubt it is when in 2004 in order to help get Publicity for a Bottled Water Company called “Simply Pure Water Ltd” that I had a business interest in, I was chained up from head to toe along with leg irons on my ankles, 3 pairs of handcuffs on my arms and a neck brace collar all padlocked together and then submerged into a wheely bin of freezing cold water. Its no joke to say that I very nearly died that day and learnt a few very valuable lessons including don’t just hire a bunch of Escapology gear and have one rehearsal before going under water, also don’t go ahead with the stunt if the correct container has not turned up and you end up having to use a wheely bin which smelt of chemical fumes and had to be filled up at last minute by the fire brigade with freezing cold water just before the media arrived.
You were at Blackpool – what were your impressions of it?
I was indeed and given the Pandemic of the past 2 years I honestly think that the organisers Russ Stevens, Russ Brown & Guy Barrett along with their amazing team at Blackpool Magicians Club did a truly amazing job of presenting such a wonderful event which truly provided something for everyone’s taste (although they could do with a good Lecturer on Hypnosis for Magicians & Mentalists LOL) In fact I actually went to more lectures this year than I normally do as there were so many things that took my interest.
It’s so nice to be welcome back at the Convention after years of being on Derek Levers “Banned List” which only happened when he found out who my dad was, namely someone he had a disagreement with decades ago when they were both doing Fire Eating Acts on the Circuit. Until then Derek had actually always been really helpful and supportive to me as a Child Magician, but once he discovered who my dad was that ended and culminated in me having to get the Winter Gardens Security & also behind the scenes the Police Involved one year at Blackpool Convention to have defamatory posters taken down that Derek had posted up warning people that I was not to be trusted and claiming I would try to spend counterfeit money with the dealers. Anyhow they got taken down, I was let into that years convention but never returned (as Derek made his feelings clear) until Harry Robson informed me that Derek was no longer involved and kindly told me I was more than welcome to start attending again.
What Magic Have you Bought Most recently?
My most recent purchase was the Quantum Deck by Craig Petty which with over 5 hours of tuition videos included I have to say is truly amazing value for money,, the effect is mind blowing, truly practical, is instantly reset for the show and is pretty damn easy to perform as well. I got to spend some time with Craig in the Ruskin at Blackpool Convention and he was so generous with his time and knowledge teaching me (and others) useful card controls and routines.
If you weren’t a performer, what would you be?
Having studied a lot about Copyright & Intellectual Property Right Laws and having taken such cases successfully to court and won on every occasion including in the High Court where the Judge commended me, I’d likely do something in the legal profession, maybe a Barrister as a good Barrister has the skills of a Hypnotist & Persuasion Expert combined with being a great Actor & Performer.
What Have you been working on recently?
My biggest project Magically I’ve been working on now for several years and only recently managed to get it completed and released in a form that I am now happy with. This being the publication of “The Mentalism & Mind Reading Secrets of Repro Magic – Trilogy of Volumes 1, 2 & 3” which are 3 encyclopedic books containing all of the Mentalism and Mind Reading materials that were ever published in Repro Magic’s Club 71 & Magician Magazines including material from some of the biggest names in Magic & Mentalism. Years ago Mike Danata obtained the rights on all things Repro from Geoff Maltby and in more recent times I obtained permission from Mike to be able to put these 3 highly important works together details of which can be found on www.mentalismsecrets.co.uk
Last time you cried laughing?
At a live event it was during The Magic Podcast Live with Craig Petty and Lloyd Barnes at this years Blackpool Convention. You had to be there but trust me when I say Bob the Legend is a true Legend and that his involvement in the Magic Podcast Live made it one of the funniest experiences you could ever witness as a Magician.
On Television it was watching British Comedian Jimmy Carr’s Latest Netflix Special “His Dark Materials” which personally I feel is a work of Comic Genius, although so many find it truly offensive!
Last movie you watched?
I don’t watch that many films these days, however I did watch the Netflix Film “Hypnotic” and despite what many so called Hypnosis Experts say I can categorically tell you everything in that film is possible and yes you can make people do things against their morale code & values with Hypnosis. Indeed Hypnosis & its use as a Mind Control Tool were studied by the CIA and MK-Ultra and I cover such things and also how we are all Hypnotized & Manipulated from all areas of our daily life’s from Cradle to Grave in my feature documentary “Extreme Danger – Extreme Hypnosis” which originally aired on Truth Researcher David Ickes “ICKONIC” online Television Channel and sold via Amazon on Demand but during the Pandemic we decided to make it available for free to help wake people up to the truth and it can be viewed on my site of www.magicalguru.com
If you were on the psychiatrists couch, what would you be talking about?
Most likely I’d end up having to give them therapy when they realised their low level outdated Psychological Treatment techniques & Strategies were not working on me and I then made them aware that I’ve arguably taught more of the World’s currently truly successful Hypnotherapists and Hypnotic Psychotherapists their skills than any other living Hypnosis Trainer.
Your guilty pleasure is?
I really love Comedy that is close to the truth, Character Psychics Like Iain De Montford (Tom Binns) and Clinton Baptiste (Alex Lowe) both make me cry with Laughter as there is so much truth in what they do, same with Steve Coogans Television Presenter character Alan Partridge, heck I’ve worked with numerous people like that over the years. Oh and what many would call offensive comedy, I love it, Jimmy Carr is a Genius in my book and Magically Mel Mellers is truly the master of acerbic wit.
Tell us one thing people may not know about you?
Well I invested money into helping Penn Gillette of Penn & Teller fame to make his film “Director’s Cut” and as a result my name is on the credits of the film as one of the many financial backers of what is without doubt the best weird ass crazy crowdfunded movie of 2018.
When you pop your clogs, how do you want people to remember you?
As someone who got back up and carried on every time he was knocked down. As someone who worked (and still does) hard in a quest to get justice for victims of media abuse, lies and illegal actions and of course as someone who truly loves all things Magical.
Any Final Thoughts?
Just that it was back in issue 10 of MagicSeen when you interviewed me about my Hypnosis Career and my reputation as “The British Bad Boy of Hypnosis” and now here we are approaching almost 100 issues later… don’t leave it as long this time, keep in touch OK.

Following the Massive World-Wide Success of “The Hypnosis Event” in 2012 where I alongside such names as Marshall Sylver, Dr. Joe Vitale, Steve G. Jones, Tom Nicoli, Nathan Thomas, Richard Nongard, Wendi Friesen, Tellman Knudson, Wyatt Woodsmall and many other top names in the Hypnosis and NLP Industry I was then also engaged as one of the headline Speakers for “The NLP Event” in 2013.
At the time “The NLP Event” was the biggest ever attended online NLP Training Event of its kind and indeed may well still be to this day.
Early in 2020 he launched his online Video Interview Show “Hypnosis Week” via www.hypnosisweek.com and to date over 100 leading figures from the Hypnotherapy & Hypnosis World have been interviewed by Alex on his show, which in the past few weeks has also launched an Audio Podcast version on all major platforms located at:
(Use these techniques to give your clients PEACE of Mind and also to help ensure that they have Inner PEACE)
05) Hypnotic Over-Ride Pain Elimination = HOPE
(Use this to Help Clients Overcome & Eliminate Pain Issues and also to give them HOPE for a better life)
06) Inner Revision Therapy = IRT
(A Rapid form of Hypno-Analysis to find the root cause of long-term emotional issues and then to positively and permanently remove the symptom’s and side effects that used to cause the client issues)
07) Virtual Gastric Band Hypnosis – The Complete Mind Therapy Approach.
(The Far more affordable and also Non Surgical and therefore Safer Alternative to Invasive Gastric Band Weight Loss Surgery)
08) Person Centred Psychotherapy = PCP
(Positive Emotional Responses & Switch Off Negatives)
09) Drug Release Therapy = DRT
(Dissolve Regrets & Resentment, Understand Guilt & Grief. – Release & Reprogramme Emotional Learnings, Eliminate Anger, Anguish, Anxiety & Stress as you Strengthen and Energise Positively)
10) Hypnotic Plastic Surgery = HPS
(The Non Invasive Alternative to Cosmetic Surgical Procedures)
And he has taught these techniques and approaches to literally thousands & thousands of Fellow Mind Therapy Practitioners around the World by way of his Live Training Seminars & events around the world and also by way of his online “Elite Hypnosis Bootcamp” as per the details at this link:
Indeed it is true to state that it is highly likely that Alex has taught more people (around the world) who are currently successful working Professional Hypnotherapists and/or Stage Hypnotists than any other living Hypnosis trainer in the world today.
Plus you also learn all of the Secrets of the Stage Hypnotists and Rapid Inductions for Stage Hypnosis and also for use in Group Hypnotherapy Sessions and more as per the Rave Reviews here:
Just a few quotes (from Medical Professionals) from those links about Alex’s Courses & Hypnotic Skills include:
“I just finished watching Royle’s 10-DVD training on ‘There’s No Such Thing as Hypnosis’ and found his presentation style to be captivating and exciting. Many clinical experts out there (particularly here in the US) are good at taking a topic and making it complex and dry, but to me the real brilliance is taking a complex subject, boiling it down to its essence and making it seem simple, which is exactly what Jonathan does in this series. There is a tremendous amount of very applicable, real world advice in this set, even for hypnotherapists like myself using it in the trenches with patients, and I highly recommend it!!” Eric B. Robins, MD Board Certified Urologist Co-author, “Your Hands Can Heal You” Contributing author, “The Heart of Healing” Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist Advisory Board Member, Emotional Freedom Technique https://ericrobins.goe.ac/
Undoubtedly one of the funniest, most intelligent and hugely entertaining presentations on hypnosis, NLP and therapy I have experienced. Go and see Jonathan – he will rock your beliefs, make you laugh out loud and probably outrage you. The hypnosis and NLP world needs more people like him. Jonathan Royle – APPROVED! Andrew T. Austin, Chichester, Nov. 2005 http://andrewtaustin.com/ (Andrews background is in and with clinical experience in neurosurgery and neurology in his former profession as a registered nurse)
Thanks Jonathan, I’m really glad we met, in terms of learning Hypnotherapy & Stage Hypnosis. And so are the 700 US Devil Pups and 750 real, genuine US Marine recruits at Camp Pendleton. The US Government does not let civilians talk to or interact with Marines recruits in boot camp, and because of what you taught me, they broke that rule. That is very rare, and a very high honor. I guarantee you will never have another hypnosis student who will be able to say they did group hypnosis on Junior Marines, or did suggestibility testing on US Marine recruits. Dr. Ken Kern – Leading Cancer Surgeon, Consulting Hypnotist & Comedy Stage Hypnotist – U.S.A http://www.drkenkern.com/about-us.html
“I can honestly say that I have never been disappointed in either quality of content or volume of information taught! Because of my background in formal education I was originally drawn to studying with a recognised training provider, members of the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC). My training with them was excellent, however it was greatly enhanced by Jonathan Royles material and indeed Royles material was excellent and far superior to the recognised course. His therapy skills are equal if not greater than the majority of therapists I have met to date and he teaches everything he knows in an open and honest manner. We need people like Royle to raise the profile of Hypnosis and I would recommend his courses to anyone who wants to become a better Hypnotist!” Dr. WILF ARCHER – Phd. http://www.mindskills.co.uk NLP Master Practitioner & EFT Advanced Practitioner (Holder of Two Royal Charters & Former Health & Safety Competent Person for The National Council of Hypnotherapy)
‘For the newcomers to hypnotherapy, this Royle Event will , in my view, fast forward them in time and experience by 2 to 3 years, almost like a shortcut to success. For the people who have been therapists for a long time, get yer ass to this event, and listen to what this guy has to say. You might just learn something. As a training provider myself, and one of the few who has stood the test of time, Alex is probably one of a few that i would actually listen to – and if i was available, I would be sat their right at the front of the class with my gob shut and my eyes and ears open!!’ BRIAN GLENN – INNERVISIONS.– http://www.innervisionsuk.com
“I learned a tremendous amount about all sorts of ways of making money, how to get more clients and the right way to approach them! Royle is very honest, outspoken and controversial, he kept me entertained and interested for the full two days and had 100’s of useful tips to impart. In short I would recommend the videos of Royles May 2004 Hypnotic Marketing Success Videos to everybody as they are much better value and contain more information than any other similar seminar or training I’ve’ ever been on!” Dr. COLIN BARRON – GLASGOW – Former Medical GP. http://www.colinbarron.co.uk/bio.html
Just quick note to say thanks for the DVDs – ‘There’s no such thing as hypnosis’. I really enjoyed watching the DVDs. Bought them off ebay from you. I’m a Medical GP and have always been extremely sceptical about a lot of things. Hypnosis, homeopathy, acupuncture, osteopathy, pretty well anything alternative as little other than placebo effect. I’m also an amateur magician – hobbiest – and enjoy fooling people. Been member of Newcastle Magic Circle for 15yrs. Makes me think of the rituals that go on with a visit to the doctors, how people expect certain things. E.g. it’s a waste of time examining people the majority of the time. Most doctors have a pretty good idea of the problem within 30secs of a patient coming in. We have to have our rituals though to establish credibility! Thinking about branching out into hypnotherapy now – think of the credentials – known, respected GP. Clients will be well ‘hypnotised’ before entering the room. A little naughty though as I don’t believe in hypnosis!! Keep up the good work. Dr. Gary Alford – Medical GP. http://bedlington-doctors.com/the-health-care-team/
Now Considered by many to be one of the World’s Leading Authority’s on the “Non State Theory” of Hypnosis and the Reality, Use and Power of “Placebo in Hypnosis”, Alex is one of the World’s Most Qualified, Experienced and Hugely Successful Hypnotherapists & Hypnotic Practitioners.
In late 2017, he ran a one day event which was organised by Sky TV’s “Fat Families” Presenter, Clinical Hypnotherapist & FATnosis Founder Steve Miller during which he taught the truth about how and why all Hypnosis and Related techniques truly work.
This event was attended by Professional Hypnotherapists, Psychologists, Medical GP’s, Nurses, Psychologists and other related Professionals who all gave Alex two, YES TWO Standing Ovations at the end of the day as can be seen here –
And 60 Seconds of highlights from the day have been collected into this short video here –
Videos of the Full approx. 6 hours of the day can be download FREE of charge from www.hypnotismexposed.com
(Please just be sure to check your junk and/or spam folders in case the download links get sent their by your email client)
During that Event Royle demonstrated one of his Cutting Edge Rapid Mind Therapy Treatment Methods on a Lady Called Karen Doyle who had a Phobia of Rats. As you can see from the above image the therapy Royle gave Karen, albeit incredibly Rapid proved to be incredibly powerful and worked fully as is further illustrated by the image below another Social Media Posting from Karen who went on to meet Live Rats without any Phobic or Panic responses of any kind thanks to the therapy received in late 2017.
Watch those videos and you will be in no doubt that when it comes to Hypnosis, Alex Smith who is better known to many as Jonathan Royle is without doubt one of the leading Experts in the World today.
Since 1989 when Royle saw his first Hypnotherapy Client and 1990 when he gave his first Hypnosis Demonstration he has easily Hypnotized fast approaching 50,000+ people and to this day it still warms his heart to get emails or actual cards through the post thanking him for helping to change someone’s life for the better
Indeed he is regularly consulted by Famous Name Television Life Coaches, Hypnotists & Personal Development Guru’s to help them hone their own skills and to also advise on how they can increase their own success and business.
One recent example is that British Television Life Coaches The Speakmans (Of ITV’s This Morning Fame) licensed Alex’s “Complete Mind Therapy” treatment System and used a script written by Alex to produce their “Your Key to Becoming the Best Ever You” Audio Self-Help Compact Disc.
He also acted as a consultant for their “You Can Be Cured” DVD and helped organise and promote the first two of their public training events something he has also done (event organisation and consultancy) for many other Famous Names in the Industry.
The Speakmans even pop up in the videos of Royle’s “Ultimate Hypnosis Course” as per
When Paul McKenna ran a company called “McKenna Breen” in London during the mid to late 90’s, pretty much all of the Companies Staff and Seminar Facilitators studied Alex’s “Complete Mind Therapy” Course having had it recommended to them (as stated in all their application forms) by Paul McKenna himself.
Scottish Hypnotherapist Bob Burns came to Royle for help & Marketing Advice which ultimately helped him to Launch his first training DVD for “The S.W.A.N”
The list go’s on and on with Alex having regularly advised, consulted for and/or mentored many of the biggest names in this industry today & indeed the content of many of the new training Courses & Schools that have popped up over the past few years is it can be shown largely copied from Royle’s Unique & Original trainings which these so called new “experts” have (it can be proven) all studied in depth and also in person with Royle.
In 2019 he presented the Feature Length Documentary on MK-Ultra Style Mind Control & Psychological Persuasion entitled “Extreme Danger – Extreme Hypnosis” as per the preview Web Series which promoted the official Feature Documentary Release as per:
With almost 33 years extensive experience in all areas of Hypnosis & Mind Therapy and given the fact that Alex has either taught or heavily advised many existing Hypnotherapist Members of The Royal Society of Medicine (RSM) you can be assured that he is at the cutting edge of all things Hypnosis & Mind Related.
British Hypnotist & Conspiracy Researcher Jonathan Royle
“I have been an admirer of the prolific work of Alex William Smith since I first became aware of him in 2008. I have studied many of his training products and learnt a huge amount from him which I use in my work at the Harley Street Hypnotherapy Clinic. I also share much of the knowledge I have learnt from him when lecturing to doctors and nurses at the College of Medicine and the National Centre for Integrative Medicine in Bristol. Alex is one of the most knowledgeable and productive hypnotherapy trainers alive today. Trevor Hoskisson Harley Street Hypnotherapy Clinic Associate Member of the Royal Society of Medicine. https://www.facebook.com/trevor.hoskisson
Extreme Danger Extreme Hypnosis Feature Documentary with British Hypnotist Jonathan Royle aka Alex William Smith on Conspiracy Theory Facts & Truth Research
In 2009 when American Hypnotist Richard Nongard came to England with John Cerbone to run his first UK Speed Trance event in Manchester, Richard contacted Royle and invited him as a guest to the event so that he could act as their adviser on British Hypnosis Laws relating to Stage & Street Hypnosis something that I was happy to do in order to help keep the industry SAFE.
In 2010, Nick Davies of The Warwickshire School of Hypnotherapy & NLP engaged me to present to his Students in Coventry and this was a huge success as always.
In 2011 Royle was engaged to give a Lecture and also a Hands on Workshop as well as appearing on the Gala Show for the Southern England Magic Convention performing Hypnotic Mind Tricks, he also has lectured at all but one of the other SEMC events.
And in terms of Lectures for Magic Clubs he has appeared three times at England’s 3rd Oldest Magical Society “The Order of the Magi” to rave reviews & feedback as can be seen in the detailed reviews of each of those three sold out events right here
Also In 2011 (October) Clinical Hypnotherapist Valerie Austin booked Royle as one of the Expert Speakers for the International Hypnosis Conference in London, England During 2013 I was engaged by The Incredible Hypnotist Richard Barker to appear alongside him and Jay Noblezada as the first ever headline speaker and trainer on the first ever Hypnotist Entertainment Cruise from Florida (USA)
When in 2013 Sheila Granger of Gastric Band Hypnotherapy Fame decided that she wanted to plan a Hypnotherapy Marketing Success Conference in England, as the images below show she asked Royle to give a Presentation on Product Creation along with Internet & Mail Order Marketing. Sheila was also planning to have Royle Perform his Comedy Stage Hypnosis Show after the events Gala Dinner event as shown here.
In 2014 Internet Marketing Legend Simon Warner who is also one of Royle’s Stage Hypnosis Students asked him to present to the “Internet Marketing Summit UK” where he taught the delegates how he has built multiple streams of passive income using his Hypnosis talents & his Hypnotic Marketing approaches. Over recent years Royle has been engaged numerous times by Nihad Ragab to help teach and educate his Hypnotherapy Students in Egypt the image below being from one such Live event conducted of the many Royle has taught at via Zoom around the World.
When Famous Indian Hypnotherapist & Hypnosis Trainer Pradeep Aggarwal needed a Guest Speaker & Trainer to present during his course at The Midland Hotel in Manchester during 2019 he called upon Royle Hypnotist as pictured below
And as always Royle’s Unique Style of Training was a hit with everyone in attendance
To date (June 2022) Royle has appeared Live and Presented Hugely Successful Sold Out Hypnotherapy & Stage Hypnosis training events in various areas of America (USA) including Sacramento – California, Quay West – Florida & Las Vegas with video training sets filmed at each of these events now available for Home Study from his various websites.
Over the years he has also given Lectures, Presentations, Seminars and/or performed Hypnotic Shows Live in person in The Bahamas, Bahrain, Ireland, Greece, Lanzarote, Tenerife, Amsterdam, Germany, The Seychelles, France, Sweden, Ibiza, Spain & Barbados among many other varied locations including of course all over England, Scotland, Wales and a lot of Europe.
It is also true to state that in the past few years alone (especially during the Covid Pandemic) that Royle has via the Zoom Online Live Video Streaming Platform presented Numerous Live Sold Out Hypnotherapy & Stage Hypnosis Training events to Students located in practically every Country you can possibly think of in the World.
Indeed at the next link you will find more details about other Hypnotherapy Conferences and Events that Royle has over the years been booked to Present & Speak at.
In 2018 Royle Hypnotist was engaged by Swedish Artist Andjeas Ejiksson to provide his Hypnosis Skills and to appear in all Episodes of a unique Socio-Political Performance Art project “Television Without Frontiers” a clip from which is in the video below

In 2014, Royle made a Virtual Online Interactive Hypnotherapy Treatment Session such that it can be (and has been) used successfully by most any person with most any Habit, Addiction, Fear, Phobia or indeed any other issue they may have from A thru to Z to help them to change their life for the better in so many positive ways.
Over the years Royle has been featured on 100’s of Television & Radio Shows around the World with his Hypnosis & Related “Mind Skills” the picture below shows Royle Sandwiched between British Television Presenters Phillip Schofield & Holly Willoughby just after Royle had been featured extensively on Top British Television Morning Magazine Show “This Morning” on ITV.
Royle’s Hypnotherapy & Mind Therapy Courses are all Approved, Endorsed and Accredited by many organisations & Professional Bodies as explained on his training website located at www.ultimatehypnosiscourse.com
These include (among others) The United Kingdom Board of Clinical Hypnotherapy (UKBCH)
Never one to miss a Chance for Publicity, in 2021 Royle hit the headlines again when he threw down a Challenge to World Famous Psychic Uri Geller during the Euro Football matches as explained at –
In the mid to late 90’s Royle became an Ordained Revered with the Universal Life Church in America and in 2004 was reissued his Ordination Certificate confirming his legal right to conduct Wedding’s and other Religious Ceremonies in the USA after losing the original when it was destroyed in a flood
In 2017 Royle was Awarded the Status of Archbishop from the Universal Life Church
In 2017 he was Awarded the Qualification of Professor of Hypnotherapy as per this image
And in 2018 he was Knighted by Prince Michael of Sealand and awarded the title of Sir
By way of the Universal Life Church and also other Religious Organisations in the USA who have awarded Royle various Honoris Causa Religious Degrees over the years he can quite Legally, Lawfully, Ethically & Morally use the title of Doctor
I also in the mid to late 90’s was Awarded an Honoris Causa Doctor of Philosophy Degree which like it or not gives me Legal Right to state that I have a Ph.D. and for the record that was/is an entirely different document than the one shown in the image below.
Indeed as well as the Honoris Causa Doctor of Philosophy Degree (PhD) that I obtained from the Universal Life Church in the late 90’s, I also at the very start of the noughties was awarded Honoris Causa Doctor of Philosophy Degree’s from several other Religious Organisations including The California Church and University Inc as can be seen at the top of the image below, where beneath it is the Batchelor of Science Degree in Marketing that I acquired from what unfortunately turned out to be nothing more than a diploma mill. The bottom line however is that my Honoris Causa Doctor of Philosophy Degree (PhD) from the Religious Organisations are 100% Legal & Lawful for use just as are all the other numerous Honoris Causa Religious Degrees that I have been awarded over the years. Indeed most recently I have been awarded Honoris Causa Doctor of Philosophy Degree’s (PhD) by The Prixton Church & University in both Transpersonal Psychology and also in Theocentric Psychology as illustrated by the images above and below this text.
Some years ago I also Legally Gained a Lord title and thus can Legally call myself Lord
But heck in 2018 I was awarded the title of JEDI KNIGHT by the Universal Life Church
And In my former stage name of Alex-Le-Roy I joined The British Actors Equity Association back in Circa 1991 and have been a member ever since.
The image above is from 2017 when I had just become a Certified Trainer of NLP from The International Institute of Humanistic Neuro-Linguistic Psychology & Hypnosis.
And the image above is from December 2017 when I got my General Hypnotherapy Standards Council & General Hypnotherapy Register Approved “Hypnotherapy Practitioners Diploma” this being the 2nd such Qualification I have gained that is GHSC & GHR approved as I also got one back in 2004.
By the way, for those who may not have realised, I mention the various “Titles” I have gained over the years in very much a tongue in cheek manner. Although it is true that they give me the full Legal Right to use the titles associated with them I do so with a sense of humour as is illustrated by the poem from my daughter being read out by Clinical Hypnotherapist Steve Miller in this short video below
I would be here for ever if I posted details of all the Amazing things I have been fortunate enough to do & achieve over the years which along the way have included being a “Behind the Scenes” adviser and consultant to Many Famous Name Television & Media Hypnotists, Life Coaches, Therapists & Also Magical Mind Readers & Mind Control Experts.
But one particularly memorable and enjoyable for me event was when I was asked to help Promote American Television Hypnotist Tom Silvers UK Hypnotherapy Training Seminar which took place in London during 2004 and at which I was honoured to be invited as a V.I.P. Guest as an additional thank you for my involvement in helping to promote the event.
Article below is from 18 years years ago now when I was working on a PILOT TELEVISION SHOW for The Living TV Satellite channel which was provisionally to be called STEPFORD HUSBANDS and we were searching for suitable contestants to take part.
I Thought it was a great concept of me Hypnotizing the Husband and turning them into the perfect person to the wife’s delight with comical twists to pull the laughs, but as so often happens in the Television world it never ended up getting broadcast on Television.
Same thing happened with another show which was going to be a Hypnotic Style Dating Show called LOVE TRANCE and which I believe my colleague Ken Webster also made a pilot for (I worked on one also for it) in any event neither of us got the job as the show never got commissioned.
In fact I would not be exaggerating to tell you that over the years I have been involved (both in front of the cameras and behind the scenes as an adviser and consultant) on literally 100’s of Television Show Pilots and ACTUAL SHOWS THAT MADE IT TO BROADCAST as well including many fronted by FAMOUS NAMES in their respective countries.
The next article below was in the Stage & Television Today Newspaper during 1997 and the text of it can be read far more easily at this link –
Another “First” so to speak was in 2001 whilst filming his Six Part European Television Series “Life in the Bus Lane” in Amsterdam when Royle played the part of his own Twin Sister “Mesmerelda” (Royle in Drag) “The World’s Leading Female Stage Hypnotist” for this truly Surreal & Bizarre Comedy Show.
For the filming of the “Mesmerleda” parts of the TV Series, Royle performed at the “Queens Head” the venue owned at the time by Legendary Dutch Drag Queen Willem Dusty Gersanowitz de Wit who introduced “Mesmerelda” onto the stage as shown here
You can see all 6 Episodes of Royle’s European Television Series from 2001 here
In 1994 Royle’s Skills of Past Life Regression Hypnosis in his previous stage name of Alex-Le-Roy were featured in Various Magazines including the one pictured below
The Next Few images are just a few paragraphs from that multi page article which is one of many others that have featured Royle’s Hypnotic Skills over the decades.
The videos above are from one of the Many “Evening of Past Life Regression Hypnosis” Stage demonstrations that I have given over the years in Theatres & Large Venues.
LOOK INTO MY THIGHS…
In the Image Below is an Article that my Good Friend, Colleague and Hypnosis Student Chris Lee was featured as the “Front Man Hypnotist” in (whilst I was the behind the scenes expert adviser) as part of the now Defunct “News of the World” some years ago..
I remember this well, mainly because The Dodgy Private Eye CONTACTED ME FIRST, and then I put him into contact with Chris Lee and arranged things with “The News of the World” as I knew NOTW would not want to deal with me as the front man due to me having tried to expose “Mazher Mahmood” their “Fake Sheik” a number of years prior to this occurring as is fully explained at www.circusofthemind.net
My Hypnosis Student Chris handled his part as the Hypnotic Front Man Extremely Well and Truly Helped SAVE a Vulnerable Women from a potentially very bad fate!
In 2012 Marmite launched the West End’s first social media activated Christmas lights installation of Oxford Street in London, England featuring the faces of people who love Marmite and one of the first featured was Psychological Illusionist Derren Brown.Shortly after Derren was featured I was lucky enough to also be featured as per this imageI was also involved in a Social Media & Internet Marketing manner in helping to promote the “Marmite Mind Control” campaign as per details here

Over the years whether for it has been to promote my Hypnotherapy Treatment Services, My Comedy Stage Hypnosis Shows or my unrivalled Hypnosis & NLP Training Courses I have often used what others in the industry have considered to be somewhat unusual, outrageous and/or controversial Marketing Materials & Methods
The images above and below being those of a Leaflet that I designed the layout of and worded which I have used, but also many of my students around the world have used with great success to attract Clients for their Hypnotherapy Services such as those I offer to people around the world here – http://www.magicalguru.com/therapy-sessions/

One final major thing that Royle has been involved in since 1998 to the present day is his continuing efforts to fully expose the Dishonest, Unethical & Often Wholly ILLEGAL tactics & techniques used by former News of the World & Sun on Sunday Journalist Mazher Mahmood also known as the Fake Sheikh whose lies, deception & illegal techniques got Royle Jailed briefly in 1998 as fully explained at http://www.circusofthemind.net/
Evidence galore that Mahmood DRUGGED ME (and many of his other victims) as well as using UNLAWFUL Information Gathering Techniques such as PHONE HACKING as well as fabricating & manipulating alleged evidence against me just as he did in the collapsed Tulisa Contostavlos legal case in 2014 is located at http://www.circusofthemind.net/
The next major project Royle is to appear as the KEY NOTE SPEAKER for is EVENT-22 taking Place in Birmingham, England on 24th September 2022 as organised by Steve Miller.
