Physical mediumship (pm) isn't often seen publicly and that may suggest there are few pysical mediums around but those who are such mediums may just be reluctant/unprepared to demonstrate their gifts publicly. So mostly we won't know who they are.
It's a sad fact that the production of phenomena has long been the province of frauds with the inference - by detractors - that all such practitioners are frauds.
Those 'in-the-know' about pm understand the need for some, perhaps most practitioners to work in low light levels and/or red light. The reasons for that are a discussion subject in themselves but suffice it to say low level red light helps protect those mediums. The red light is usually adequate for viewing the production of physical phenomena. Phenomena in themselves are not necessarily indicative of life after death, the primary message of the religion and philosophy of Modern Spiritualism in the UK.
Transfiguration mediumship may provide evidence of the survival in spirit of family and friends when they are able to show themselves in this way. However other figures may also appear who are not associated with the sitters present. Such transfiguration may be accompanied by teaching or guidance and could reasonably be described as 'philosophical mediumship'.
