0:29:07 > 0:29:10We're going to do an exercise now where you all stay seated.

0:29:10 > 0:29:12A magic exercise, that is.

0:29:12 > 0:29:16I want you to close your eyes and listen to the music that's going

0:29:16 > 0:29:19to be played and imagine that you are floating through the countryside.

0:29:19 > 0:29:22The magic is coming up, quite literally.

0:29:22 > 0:29:25Relax. Close your eyes. Perfect.

0:29:25 > 0:29:28They totally believe her. They've all got their eyes shut.

0:29:28 > 0:29:31But will they be able to keep them closed when the magic begins?

0:29:31 > 0:29:33Can we have the music, please?

0:29:33 > 0:29:34Music, Maestro.

0:29:36 > 0:29:37Magic, Maestro.

0:29:38 > 0:29:42Listen to the soaring melody and how it lifts your spirits.

0:29:42 > 0:29:45And it's beginning to lift Katherine. Will anyone notice?

0:29:47 > 0:29:49He's sneaking a peek.

0:29:49 > 0:29:52Katherine's derriere is in the air.

0:29:54 > 0:29:57Someone else has noticed. The word is spreading through the class.

0:30:00 > 0:30:03More eyes are open and they can't believe what they are seeing.

0:30:04 > 0:30:08They can't work it out. She's in midair and seemingly unaware.

0:30:11 > 0:30:12They must know it's magic

0:30:12 > 0:30:17but they haven't worked out who their mysterious ballet teacher is.

0:30:17 > 0:30:20Katherine's floating back to Earth and the class's jaws are dropping.

0:30:21 > 0:30:26You don't see Darcey Bussell doing this on Strictly, now, do you?

0:30:26 > 0:30:28I don't know about them but I can't see how she's done that

0:30:28 > 0:30:30and I know magic.

0:30:30 > 0:30:31Well, I know some magicians.

0:30:33 > 0:30:35Wasn't that lovely? CLASS: Yes.

0:30:35 > 0:30:36Understatement of the century.

0:30:36 > 0:30:40I just adore that song. It's so beautiful.

0:30:40 > 0:30:41Some beautiful magic there, too.

0:30:41 > 0:30:46When I was a little girl, I used to pretend that I was a ballerina.

0:30:46 > 0:30:50So much so, that my father built me my very own miniature opera house.

0:30:50 > 0:30:52And this is the very one he built me.

0:30:52 > 0:30:55I used to play with this for hours and hours.

0:30:55 > 0:30:58Who's she kidding? She still does. But that box is a magic one.

0:30:58 > 0:31:02I used to play with this doll, which was my first ever ballet doll.

0:31:02 > 0:31:04Or is that a Katherine action figure?

0:31:04 > 0:31:07They certainly can't figure her out.

0:31:07 > 0:31:10She is a ballerina and I used to play with her

0:31:10 > 0:31:14inside the opera house like this and I used to imagine this was me.

0:31:14 > 0:31:16I used to make her do pirouettes

0:31:16 > 0:31:18and I thought she was so beautiful

0:31:18 > 0:31:21and I'd imagine that all the people would be cheering for me

0:31:21 > 0:31:25and throwing flowers on the stage and I just used to love it.

0:31:25 > 0:31:27So, I want you to try and imagine now

0:31:27 > 0:31:31that you see the ballerina in there. Can imagine that she is real?

0:31:31 > 0:31:32ALL: Yes. Can you imagine?

0:31:32 > 0:31:35- I can't hear you. Could you really imagine?- Watch that box.

0:31:35 > 0:31:38You really could? I could imagine this too, you know?

0:31:40 > 0:31:42Whoa! How did she get in there?

0:31:42 > 0:31:44Katherine's doll's come to life.

0:31:46 > 0:31:48- Beautiful. - She just can't believe it.

0:31:51 > 0:31:56Stupendous dancing, outstanding magic and a stunned audience.

0:32:13 > 0:32:15Basically, she's going to come clean.
