Episode 7 Help! My Mini School Trip Is Magic

HELP! MY MINI SCHOOL TRIP IS MAGIC CBI F467X/01 HDS143427

It's term time again

and our four magicians have left school on a brand-new mission.

This time, we're taking unsuspecting kids out of school

and sending them on school trips.

They're off to visit some amazing locations

where they'll witness incredible magic -

and, once again, we're hiding secret cameras in every corner,

so you don't miss a trick on any school trip.

How long will it take before the classes shout...?

Help! My School Trip Is Magic!

KIDS CHEER

Year five are already buzzed up

cos they're getting out of school for the day.

Their teachers and parents are fully in the picture,

but all this class know is they're off to the Design Museum.

Here, they celebrate all types of design,

ranging from domestic applications to futuristic inventions.

We've had to get inventive with our guys' disguises

so they don't get recognised.

James is styling,

Fergus, not so much - but he's smiling.

It's great for me today, apart from the hair, which I am quite proud of,

I think the rest of it is rocking high street chic.

Here they come.

They don't know it yet, but they're going to see a trick

designed to keep them guessing.

This is our prototype 3D scanner.

OK, so 3D scanner. That sounds plausible.

This one actually does something special.

-Do you want to know what that special thing is?

-Yeah!

They'll soon find out what's special about it. It's magic.

OK, well, this one, as well as doing inanimate objects,

this one also does living things.

So, it's a bit more advanced.

It can do plants and animals,

even humans!

And that's what we're going to do today with the help of Andrew.

Come on, Andrew.

Andrew is Fergus's alter ego for the tricky trip.

Right, what we're going to do is,

we're going to take the front off this box,

so obviously it needs to fit something quite big...

So, Andrew. Andrew, you all right?

-You all right, bud?

-Yeah.

-Get in, then.

Watch your head on the top.

Fergus is climbing into the 3D scanner.

Don't copy that at home, or 3D scan it.

Andrew, it's going to go a little bit dark.

We're going to just cover the front of the box.

I don't really like the dark.

Bit late to tell James you don't like the dark now, mate.

Now, what we have to think about now is -

cos Andrew is quite complex in many ways,

it's important to get all of the details right.

So, first of all, he's human like most of you in this room today.

He is a human.

Now, what we're going to do is, I'm going to turn the handles here

and, what will happen is, the machine will scan him in three dimensions.

THE KIDS CHEER

Whoa! What's happening?

It's flatpack Fergus. That's not quite right.

-Um... All right, all right, settle down, settle down.

-That's 2D!

They're right, he's in 2D.

Didn't James say this was a 3D scanner?

That's not quite what I had in mind there.

Um... KIDS LAUGH

But it's all right, look,

cos if you remember, that's not actually Andrew, is it?

It's just a copy.

See, Andrew, luckily, is safe and sound inside the box.

Look, there he is! KIDS GASP

He's disappeared!

They can't believe it. Where's he gone?

James has gone in for a closer inspection.

Definitely not in there.

Right. No, it's all right, it's all right!

I know what I've done.

No, what I've done is this, look...

Maybe that 2D pic is Fergus!

..I had it set on 2D.

I think what we'll be able to do is, if we reverse the process,

put that in 3D, give it a little winding.

Hopefully what will happen is...

James is winding Fergus in and winding the class up.

..which should mean that the internal gubbins of the machine

on the X, Y and Z axis, should mean that we're OK now, so hopefully...

Oh, there he is!

Phew! We had more of the series left to film.

Good job he's back.

He looks a bit dishevelled.

Oh, watch yourself, now. Watch yourself, man.

Oh, your glasses are wonky.

They scanned the magic, now they should tell the truth.

Thank you, Mr Conran.

Now, we actually have a confession for you

here at the Design Museum today.

We don't really work here.

And, we are both magicians!

And, there is a hidden camera there

and there's a hidden camera there and there's a hidden camera there,

and you've all been set up by your school

and you're all going to be on CBBC's

-Help! My School Trip Is Magic!

-KIDS SCREAM

No wonder they're excited,

this 3D magic has taken them into another dimension.

That trick was totally radical.

The machine now will scan him in three dimensions...

It was really fantastic. I loved it.

It was an inventive trick and the class didn't suspect a thing.
