Psychic policeman Keith Charles has been called back into action for a one-off show in Worthing.

Keith, 52, worked as a detective for the Metropolitan Police for 30 years before retiring to Brighton to become a full-time medium.

He is now among the most successful mediums in the UK and brings his talents to Worthing Pavilion on September 2.

During his time with the Met, Keith kept quiet about his psychic gift, which he discovered at the age of eight when his 18-month-old cousin went missing in Brighton's Black Rock swimming pool, but he has since been involved in several police investigations.

Keith says he knows where Lord Lucan is and that he is in regular contact with his dead son, Matthew.

Keith, a former pupil at Brighton's Queen's Park School, developed his abilities at classes run by a spiritualist church.

He says: "When I help someone who is lost somebody it makes it all worthwhile.

"After my son Mathew died in a motorbike accident I wanted to pack it all in.

"I thought it was really unfair that God had done this to me but then I remembered how much it helps people."

Keith will also be featured on the Discovery Channel on Sunday and on a 90-minute Channel 4 special on August 23 entitled The Ultimate Psychic Challenge.
