PRESS RELEASE: Sudbury Hypnotist Lands TV Job

Benjamin Ryan (Hypnotherapist at Sudbury Hypnosis and Proprietor of Gainsborough Therapy Rooms) has been asked to get involved with Newcastle based production company Made TV, to help make a 6 part documentary on hypnosis called ‘The Power Of Suggestion’ 

Hosted by actor Daniel Renton Skinner (a.k.a. Angelos Epithemiou of Reeves & Mortimer’s Shooting Stars) the program follows hypnotist Karl Smith as he demonstrates the power of hypnosis in various unscripted situations including the street, the therapy room and even in a gym, testing the claim that hypnosis can enhance sports performance.

Benjamin Ryan is working as a consultant and on-set support, helping to ensure the film crew know what to expect and what to watch for, and that volunteers are properly cared for before and after working with Karl Smith.

Benjamin Ryan Said “Part one of the documentary has already been filmed, and the other 5 parts are due for filming early next year. 

“Some of the things we have planned have never been done on camera before. It was a lot of fun making part one and very interesting to try and get this stuff on film, I’m excited about what the rest of the series will explore.

“The highlight of program one for me was having a huge Brazilian Red Kneed Tarantula on set for one of the days. This was by far the biggest spider I’ve ever seen.

“We tackled four spider phobias that day, two were on camera as a planned part of the documentary, but we dealt with another two people in the crew who were getting a little freaked out – both ended up holding the spider and loving the experience!”

The production company are in talks with an un-named national broadcaster with regard to showing the series nationally, but it will be shown first on the production company’s own cable/satellite network which covers Bristol, Cardiff, Leeds and Tyne & Wear.
