The Cox Family

“Just to say a huge thank you for entertaining everyone at Jemima's birthday on Saturday.

Everyone had a brilliant time and we couldn't be happier.”

Carnival Cruises Youth Manager

“The Count and Countess performed two magic shows, hosted a disco party, magic workshop, kid’s tea walkaround,
teen close-up session and quiz.

All events were very well received and well attended, seeing a good little gathering of followers.

Lovely to have the Count and Countess back onboard, very self-sufficient and some great feedback.”

Emma & Kieran

“We just wanted to say thank you so much for being such a brilliant DJ for our wedding.

You did a fantastic job - everyone commented on how brilliant the disco was (so much dancing all night, perfect) but also the smaller details you did eg MC / sound effects, etc.

We feel so grateful to have you be part of our special day.”

Karin Hale, Children’s Centre Co-ordinator, Ringwood

”Thank you so much for putting on a fabulous children’s magic show at our fun day, the children were so engaged.

We have received really positive feedback so thank you very much!”

Heather, Bournemouth

”Just to say a massive thank you for a wonderful, fun, stress free birthday party.

We would recommend you as our favourite children’s party entertainer. Loved by all! Many thanks.”

Dave, Close-up Magic Event, Ringwood

”Dave, Megan, myself and all of our guests would love to thank you so much for last night’s entertainment.

Lots of the guests commented on how good you were and you certainly proved you are never too old to enjoy magic!

Not only were you entertaining, you helped raise much money too. We hoped to raise £600-800, we were astounded to raise £1170 , the auction was incredible and you setting the mood was a huge part of that.

Thanks so much from us all.”

Sgt Del Farr R SIGNALS Blandford Camp, Dorset

”I would just like to pass on our thanks for your hard work in entertaining it looked like 1000’s of children at times.

I had spoken to you both on occasions throughout the evening and the standard of your service was exemplary.

I had a large number of personnel thanking me for the evening but I had very little to play in the success. The parents having some downtime while their children were being entertained by yourselves was the main ingredient to the success of the evening.

I have been told was the busiest and the best atmosphere at a families evening for a very long time.”

Claire Newborough – Vice President Securities – J.P. Morgan, Bournemouth

”I just wanted to say a big thank you. The children’s disco was a total success and we had a fantastic time.

From the bubbles and foam, to the dancing and party games, there was something for everyone (including the adults!).

You have a talent for recognising the personalities and needs of the children and bringing out the confidence in even the most timid of children, making it a very interactive and enjoyable party for all.”

Stuart Reilly, Dorset

”I would like to thank you both for your shows on the P&O cruise ship Azura.
Both Sofia and Theo really enjoyed them.

It was really funny when we got home and Theo was trying to make his sister disappear.

Best wishes and always remembering the chair of doom.”

Sharon Summerson, Poole

”Thank you so much for entertaining the children with your Punch & Judy show for the children at our wedding, they all really enjoyed it as we found out throughout the night, getting the full story again or losing our noses with the crocodiles.”

Wendy Dooley, Poole (Holiday Park Guest)

”Simon and Victoria always have something new to offer and Simon is one of the best children’s and family entertainers we have seen.

Each of their shows is pitched perfectly for both children and their parents. They are a class act that are hard to be beaten and the genuine enjoyment and pleasure that they get from entertaining your guests shines through without question.”

Teresa, Sam & Danielle, Ringwood

”A very big thank you from myself, Sam and Danielle for all your hard work on Sunday, everyone has commented on what a brilliant children’s disco you put on for the kids, and Danielle and her friends have said how much fun they had

You will be my first recommendation if anyone asks about a children’s party entertainer.”

Carina & Mick, Bournemouth

”Just to say thank you so much for entertaining all the kids, plus the mums and dads yesterday.

Everyone said how fantastic you were and we were all completely in awe of how you managed to entertain them for so long!”

Anna Goddard
Entertainment Planning Manager – P&O Cruises

Count Backwards has performed three different magic shows on board our ships, all of which were very popular with the children and families alike.

All the shows were entertaining, were of a high professional standard and the children were encouraged to take part.

Count Backwards were very keen to get involved with all aspects of the youth programme, being involved in the Welcome Onboard Party on the first day and even hosting a quiz with the 5-8’s on the last evening. I look forward to their return on Ventura.”

M. Downith, Ringwood

”Thank you so much for providing the entertainment at Rebecca’s party yesterday.

The Kids Disco and the Count Backwards Magic show were tremendous. You have a real gift and once again I am so pleased we hired you.

Also heard from some of the mums today that their daughters went home raving about you.”

Steph, Poole

”Thank you so much for entertaining the kids (and adults!) at Elysia’s birthday party today!

Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves, I’m sure you heard how much the birthday girl enjoyed herself with her loud laugh!

Thanks again and I will definitely be recommending your kids discos to my friends!”

Kirstie. P, Lilliput, Dorset

”DJ Simon, Thank you so much for doing such a fantastic job for Lucia and Sofia’s disco party yesterday .

All the children had a wonderful time and you managed, too, to brilliantly entertain the mummies and daddies who stayed!

We’ve seen other enjoyable disco party entertainers but none to rival yours.

Thanks, also, for the birthday cards for the girls, a lovely touch, which they much appreciated.”

Danni Lucas, Bournemouth

”I just wanted to drop you a line to thank you for making Tilly’s 5th birthday so much fun. She thoroughly enjoyed herself, as did all of us.

I had many comments from people at the party saying how good they thought you were and what a fantastic kids disco party it was.”

Noreen French, Verwood

”Amy and her friends had a great time at her birthday party and the adults were just as entertained.

One of the mums said ‘cheaper than Michael McIntyre tickets and just as funny’.

Thank you Count Backwards.”

Anne and Ray, Bournemouth

”We will pass on the name of Count Backwards to anyone who is looking for family friendly entertainment and thank you so much again for finishing our (wedding) day with such humour, fun and professionalism.”

Danni Lucas, Bournemouth
