Hi,

Just watched my tape of last week’s History Channel offering of “Houdini,” hosted by Lance Burton. I have searched for an answer to my question and thought possibly you might know.

I noticed that during Teller’s portions of the show he was in shadow. Is he ill? As a fan, I really hope the answer is no!

Thanks so much for your reply!
