It's term-time again

0:00:020:00:03

and our magicians have left school on a new mission.

0:00:030:00:05

But do you think you'd recognise them

0:00:070:00:09

if they were outside the classroom? Do you?

0:00:090:00:12

Now's your chance, cos they're going deeper undercover,

0:00:140:00:17

with new disguises, ambitious costumes and even taller tales.

0:00:170:00:23

# La la la la... #

0:00:230:00:26

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

0:00:260:00:29

piling them on coaches and sending them on school trips.

0:00:290:00:34

They're off to visit some amazing locations where they'll

0:00:340:00:37

witness incredible magic.

0:00:370:00:39

I was like... "Oh, my gosh!"

0:00:390:00:41

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

0:00:410:00:44

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

0:00:440:00:47

-The magic is bigger than ever.

-Wow!

0:00:480:00:51

It might be term time but school's out.

0:00:510:00:54

I can't believe our teachers did that.

0:00:540:00:56

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

0:00:560:00:59

Help! My school trip is magic!

0:00:590:01:02

Hello, it's me, Ian. Welcome to Help! My School Trip Is Magic.

0:01:050:01:10

Our magicians are no longer supply teachers.

0:01:100:01:13

They're now gallivanting around as staff in some popular attractions,

0:01:130:01:17

and because we know you know them, we've disguised them even more.

0:01:170:01:22

We've secretly filmed the results with special hidden cameras.

0:01:220:01:26

One of today's school trips takes place at a famous rugby ground.

0:01:260:01:30

I love rugby but it can be quite a rough game.

0:01:300:01:33

I got quite hurt in my last match.

0:01:330:01:35

They said my boots didn't match my shorts. They were designer.

0:01:360:01:40

Here's what's coming up in today's show.

0:01:420:01:45

James is a head coach at the rugby stadium

0:01:480:01:50

-but will Katherine be able to crank things up a notch?

-Oh!

0:01:500:01:55

John's got something to sucker your mates with in Tricks of the Trade.

0:01:550:01:59

You've been sending in clips of all your best magic tricks

0:02:000:02:03

and later on, I'll be picking my favourite.

0:02:030:02:06

It's the Wannabe Wizards.

0:02:060:02:08

And Fergus plays a clumsy curator at the museum,

0:02:080:02:11

but will the class fall for it?

0:02:110:02:14

Wow!

0:02:140:02:16

Do you think you'd be able to tell if your school trip was magic?

0:02:160:02:20

Do you?

0:02:200:02:21

Here's James. He's the edgy one of the team.

0:02:230:02:26

Hang on, this trick looks a bit flat, though.

0:02:260:02:29

No filler, but don't worry. It will be a killer. Hold tight.

0:02:290:02:33

Here's a card-carrying magician. That trick nearly decked me.

0:02:330:02:37

And the kids are climbing on deck ready to

0:02:390:02:41

set off on a school trip.

0:02:410:02:43

But this is a school trip of two halves.

0:02:430:02:45

The parents and teachers know it will be magic.

0:02:450:02:48

The kids don't but they will end up the winners.

0:02:480:02:51

They're going to have a ball.

0:02:510:02:53

A funny-shaped one because they're going to the World Rugby Museum

0:02:530:02:57

at the 82,000-capacity Twickenham Stadium.

0:02:570:03:00

There's been a stadium here for over 100 years

0:03:000:03:03

but for this match day, James needs to get his game face on,

0:03:030:03:07

and game wig on, and, cos this is a team game,

0:03:070:03:10

he's got Katherine to back him up as a rugby coach.

0:03:100:03:13

Here comes the kids' coach, winging its way to the stadium.

0:03:130:03:16

The squad on board don't know the score or realise they've been

0:03:160:03:20

sold a dummy about this trip.

0:03:200:03:21

James and Katherine are pitch-side

0:03:240:03:26

and going through the pre-match drills.

0:03:260:03:29

Oh, butter fingers!

0:03:290:03:30

The kids have arrived and they're looking at the rugby

0:03:300:03:33

memorabilia, including the cups and balls -

0:03:330:03:35

the magicians' favourite.

0:03:350:03:37

They're warmed up and raring to go. Here come the kids.

0:03:370:03:41

Will James and Katherine successfully convert

0:03:410:03:43

the trip into magic or will they get recognised and kicked into touch?

0:03:430:03:48

Hello, everybody and welcome to the museum. You're at the stadium.

0:03:480:03:52

We're very pleased to have you here today and we're very proud

0:03:520:03:56

that next year, we will be hosting the 2015 World Cup.

0:03:560:04:00

-Isn't that exciting?

-Yes.

0:04:000:04:03

But who can tell me what sport this stadium is famous for?

0:04:030:04:08

-It's not a trick question.

-Yes.

-Rugby.

0:04:080:04:10

It is rugby. Rugby, and I love rugby.

0:04:100:04:13

Ever since I was a little boy, growing up

0:04:130:04:15

in Aber-go-sideways back in Wales...

0:04:150:04:17

He's just made that up.

0:04:170:04:18

..I wanted to be in rugby, and now here I am.

0:04:180:04:21

I work in the stadium. I'm part of the physiotherapy department.

0:04:210:04:24

Now, as you can imagine, the athletes

0:04:240:04:26

we have here playing rugby, their bodies take a pounding sometimes.

0:04:260:04:29

You know, they're very tough on the joints and the legs

0:04:290:04:32

and especially in the scrum when you have three rows of players,

0:04:320:04:35

all like this, and they all connect like this and they all

0:04:350:04:38

push against three rows of other players on the other side,

0:04:380:04:40

who are also pushing,

0:04:400:04:41

and there's lots of pushing, and then their feet are

0:04:410:04:44

involved and they're trying to gain possession of the ball, aren't they?

0:04:440:04:47

James has gained possession of their attention, that's for sure.

0:04:470:04:50

Now you can imagine, there's lots of tension

0:04:500:04:52

on certain parts of the body.

0:04:520:04:53

Which part of the body do you think takes the most pressure?

0:04:530:04:57

-The neck.

-Your neck. Absolutely.

0:04:570:04:59

You can imagine all that pressure on the neck, so here at the stadium,

0:04:590:05:03

we have specific pieces of equipment to help condition the neck to

0:05:030:05:08

take lots of strength and be able to be more mobile.

0:05:080:05:11

I'm going to stick my neck out and say this kit's going to be magic.

0:05:110:05:14

And I've got one of them with me today.

0:05:140:05:16

This is the neck mobility improver,

0:05:160:05:19

and I'd like to demonstrate this to you now.

0:05:190:05:21

-Would you like to see it?

-Yes.

-Absolutely.

0:05:210:05:23

Do you want to come and give me a hand with this?

0:05:230:05:25

Katherine's going to assist. The class haven't sussed them.

0:05:250:05:28

And the neck mobility improver, as you can imagine,

0:05:280:05:32

goes on the head like this.

0:05:320:05:34

Oh, it's quite snug, and if we go a little bit to the right, then...

0:05:340:05:37

Not exactly Ironman, is it?

0:05:370:05:39

-Whoa, that looks painful.

-And now left.

0:05:400:05:42

Katherine's winding it round and winding the class up.

0:05:420:05:45

Oh! That's it.

0:05:450:05:46

Keep your eye on James's face.

0:05:460:05:49

Go on. Go on.

0:05:490:05:50

Wow! His head's going round the twist.

0:05:510:05:54

They can't believe what they've just seen.

0:05:550:05:58

Oh! Oh, that felt good. Oh. That was amazing.

0:05:580:06:04

It was some amazing magic but they still don't suspect.

0:06:040:06:07

James whacked on this weird contraption.

0:06:090:06:12

Oh, it's quite snug.

0:06:120:06:13

He set the school trip's heads spinning

0:06:130:06:15

with his mind twisting magic.

0:06:150:06:17

He moved his head like an owl, without as much as an "ouch".

0:06:180:06:21

Oh!

0:06:210:06:22

The class haven't seen through James's disguise

0:06:220:06:24

but they're soon going to see through his body.

0:06:240:06:27

Now John is going to set you a magical challenge

0:06:290:06:31

in Tricks of the Trade.

0:06:310:06:33

If you fancy yourself as a magician,

0:06:330:06:35

here's a trick you can try on your mates.

0:06:350:06:38

John is going to show you how to get the drink from this bottle

0:06:380:06:40

into this glass without taking the straw out,

0:06:400:06:44

without sucking on the straw or without tipping up the bottle.

0:06:440:06:49

Can he do it? I bet he decant!

0:06:490:06:52

Keep watching, and with any luck John

0:06:520:06:54

will quench your thirst for magic later in the show.

0:06:540:06:57

Let's pass back to the rugby stadium and museum.

0:07:010:07:04

James posed as a physio with some physically impossible magic.

0:07:040:07:08

Ah!

0:07:080:07:09

Now it's over to Katherine, as she's the cat in the hat.

0:07:090:07:12

I work with Jim here

0:07:120:07:15

to try and improve the athlete's performance in physical

0:07:150:07:19

contact sports, so obviously rugby is a very physical game, isn't it?

0:07:190:07:23

And do you know what they call it

0:07:230:07:24

when one player tries to grab the ball off another player?

0:07:240:07:28

-Yes.

-Tackling.

-Tackling. Excellent.

0:07:280:07:30

What they do is they'll grab a player round the hips

0:07:300:07:33

and they'll drag them to the floor.

0:07:330:07:34

This magic coming up is going to totally floor them.

0:07:340:07:37

And that obviously has a lot of strain on your hip joints,

0:07:370:07:40

so we've come up with a way of trying to help with this

0:07:400:07:43

and improve it and here it is.

0:07:430:07:45

It's the laser-operated hip displacer.

0:07:450:07:48

Looks pretty hip, eh?

0:07:480:07:49

So I'd like Jim to come and help me demonstrate this.

0:07:490:07:52

Some unusual gym equipment.

0:07:520:07:54

So all I'd like you to do, Jim, is...

0:07:540:07:58

get inside.

0:07:580:08:00

He's climbing in but the trip don't know what they've let

0:08:000:08:02

themselves in for.

0:08:020:08:04

And pop your head in this place here,

0:08:040:08:07

and your hand through this little bit...

0:08:070:08:10

That's his hand in place.

0:08:100:08:11

..and your foot, so everything is locked in place.

0:08:110:08:14

-That's really important.

-There's his foot in position.

0:08:140:08:17

The class can't take their eyes off it,

0:08:170:08:18

but they can't see where this is going, either.

0:08:180:08:21

Once he's securely in place, then we can shut the doors like this.

0:08:210:08:26

James is locked and loaded.

0:08:260:08:28

What we do now is we're just going to soften his joints

0:08:280:08:31

and hips a little bit, so we use this.

0:08:310:08:33

It's a medical-grade laser.

0:08:330:08:35

Handled carefully by an A-grade magician.

0:08:350:08:38

Mind your fingers there, Jim.

0:08:380:08:40

That laser can't be softening up his joints, surely?

0:08:400:08:44

The class are curious.

0:08:440:08:45

And there we go. Now that should have done the trick.

0:08:450:08:49

So let's see if it's worked.

0:08:490:08:51

This trick is going to knock them sideways.

0:08:510:08:54

-Hold tight, Jim.

-Hold tight at home too.

0:08:540:08:56

Just going to slide this along like that.

0:08:560:09:00

Would you look at that! James is splitting in half.

0:09:000:09:03

There we go.

0:09:040:09:06

And you can see he's become a lot more mobile.

0:09:060:09:08

Don't know about that. He's not going anywhere.

0:09:080:09:11

-We open it up there.

-There's his torso, the little so-and-so.

0:09:110:09:14

He really has become extremely flexible.

0:09:150:09:18

Now that's what I call a body swerve.

0:09:180:09:20

And with this kind of flexibility playing on the pitch, it gives

0:09:200:09:23

you a huge advantage over the other team and over the other players.

0:09:230:09:27

It would certainly be hard to tackle him if he could do THAT in a game.

0:09:270:09:30

-So do you think we should put him back together?

-Yeah!

-Nah.

0:09:300:09:34

All right, then, I'll go with the consensus.

0:09:360:09:38

Well, I think we should, so let's close the door.

0:09:380:09:43

Here we go.

0:09:430:09:44

Look - he's left his feet over there.

0:09:440:09:46

Oh, no - wait, that's just his trainers.

0:09:460:09:48

OK?

0:09:480:09:50

Katherine's getting a shift on.

0:09:500:09:53

His hips back in place. There we go.

0:09:530:09:57

Let's hope he's in one piece.

0:09:580:10:01

Out you come, Jim. How do you feel?

0:10:010:10:03

-Oh, I feel fantastic.

-Feels good.

0:10:030:10:06

Oh, I feel fantastic now.

0:10:060:10:07

-That's a relief for everyone.

-So!

0:10:070:10:09

There are a few other things we need to tell you

0:10:090:10:12

about your visit today.

0:10:120:10:13

Now the second half is over, it's full-time to reveal their secret.

0:10:130:10:16

You've all been set up by your teachers and your parents

0:10:160:10:19

and you're being filmed right now. There's a camera over there.

0:10:190:10:22

There's a camera over there, and there's a camera over there.

0:10:220:10:26

You're going to be on CBBC's Help My School Trip Is Magic.

0:10:260:10:30

They think it's all over. It is now. Ah, bon sport.

0:10:300:10:34

There's plenty of noise from this crowd,

0:10:340:10:36

but how did they summarise the sporting action?

0:10:360:10:39

It was fantastic.

0:10:390:10:41

James introduced some kit to help strengthen players in the scrum.

0:10:410:10:45

This is the neck mobility improver.

0:10:450:10:47

He had this box.

0:10:470:10:49

He put it on his head and he was turning his neck around and round.

0:10:490:10:53

Not only that, he set the pupils' heads spinning.

0:10:530:10:56

It was amazing that he could turn his head right the way round.

0:10:560:11:00

James wound them up good and proper

0:11:000:11:02

and it was time for an unexpected twist.

0:11:020:11:05

You could see his legs and his foot was still sticking

0:11:050:11:08

out of the box, but then his like body was sliding to the side.

0:11:080:11:13

And it wasn't just James who was beside himself.

0:11:130:11:16

In a word, it was...

0:11:160:11:17

-Unbelievable.

-Everyone's a winner

0:11:170:11:20

but nobody suspected their school trip was magic.

0:11:200:11:24

Help! My School Trip Is Magic.

0:11:240:11:26

Still to come, were you quick on the straw with John's

0:11:290:11:32

secret in Tricks of the Trade?

0:11:320:11:34

You'll just have to suck it and see.

0:11:340:11:37

And will Fergus box clever at the museum?

0:11:370:11:39

Or will the class realise their school trip is magic?

0:11:390:11:42

Oh, deary me.

0:11:420:11:43

But first, we asked you to send in clips of yourself

0:11:440:11:48

performing your best magic tricks.

0:11:480:11:50

We received loads of clips from all over the country.

0:11:500:11:54

Each week I'll be choosing a favourite Wannabe Wizard

0:11:540:11:56

and showing them to you guys.

0:11:560:11:58

My Wannabe Wizard this time is Amy from St Helens,

0:11:590:12:02

and with two tricks up her sleeve, she's double trouble.

0:12:020:12:06

For her first trick...

0:12:060:12:08

Here is blank card. Can you all see that?

0:12:080:12:11

Yes, we can. It's definitely blank.

0:12:110:12:13

Close it.

0:12:150:12:16

Classic magical gesture. Done with aplomb.

0:12:190:12:22

-Wow!

-Can you all see a card?

0:12:220:12:25

-It's now the nine of clubs. How did that happen?

-Magic.

0:12:250:12:29

Thought so, silly! And there's more magic where that came from.

0:12:290:12:32

I'm going to make one of these balls fall through a cup.

0:12:320:12:36

The ball is on top of the yellow cup.

0:12:360:12:38

Putting them on top. Abracadabra.

0:12:380:12:41

-How on earth did that happen?

-How on earth did that happen?

0:12:420:12:46

That's what I just said. You should know, Amy.

0:12:460:12:49

That's one ball under. What's she going to do next?

0:12:490:12:52

I'm going to make another ball fall through.

0:12:520:12:54

This time it's on top of the red cup.

0:12:540:12:56

Abracadabra. It fell through.

0:12:570:13:00

It's gone through and now there's two.

0:13:000:13:02

So there are two under the blue cup.

0:13:040:13:07

She's put the third ball on top of that.

0:13:070:13:09

Here's the last ball. Let's see if it works.

0:13:090:13:11

Abracadabra.

0:13:120:13:14

Are they all there?

0:13:150:13:16

Let's count them.

0:13:160:13:18

One,

0:13:180:13:20

two,

0:13:200:13:22

three.

0:13:220:13:23

All the balls have fell down there.

0:13:230:13:26

Three balls, two great tricks.

0:13:260:13:28

This is muscular magician Fergus. Nice bicep.

0:13:300:13:33

John always has to go bigger and better, doesn't he?

0:13:350:13:39

These strong men must tricep harder on this next school trip.

0:13:390:13:43

Year four are made up, cos they're off out for the day.

0:13:440:13:48

Their parents and teachers haven't told them that

0:13:480:13:50

the whole reason for their trip is made up too.

0:13:500:13:53

It's going to seem credible but end up incredible.

0:13:530:13:57

And would you credit it - they're going

0:13:570:13:59

to Ripley's Believe It Or Not Museum.

0:13:590:14:02

It's an attraction full of odd and quirky stuff, which is

0:14:020:14:05

why we've sent in our most peculiar magicians.

0:14:050:14:07

Hi, John. Fancy seeing you here.

0:14:090:14:11

The pupils are already expecting to see the weird and wonderful, so

0:14:110:14:15

our guys will have to step up their game and go even deeper under cover.

0:14:150:14:20

Today I'm going to be playing a master of ancient artefacts and

0:14:200:14:24

I recently met Jedward so I'm going to be putting on the Irish accent.

0:14:240:14:28

They gave me a few tips and things that I hopefully then could improve

0:14:280:14:32

it to a standard where people will actually believe I'm Irish.

0:14:320:14:36

It's not going to happen.

0:14:360:14:38

He's going to be put to the test soon, cos the kids are here

0:14:380:14:40

and they're looking round at the eye-popping exhibits.

0:14:400:14:43

The eyes are pushed out!

0:14:430:14:46

John and Fergus have also been enjoying measuring up to

0:14:460:14:49

the world's tallest man, but time's ticking on.

0:14:490:14:52

They need to get a shift on and the lift up

0:14:520:14:54

as the trippers are not far behind.

0:14:540:14:56

The room's ready and rigged with cameras.

0:14:590:15:01

It's time for John to get his magic on, cos in they come.

0:15:010:15:04

-Hello, boys and girls.

-Hello.

0:15:070:15:10

I work here, in this wonderful establishment.

0:15:100:15:12

I love all the oddities. The strange things that we've got here.

0:15:120:15:15

One of my favourites is over there.

0:15:150:15:16

That is a full-size model of a Ferrari motor car that's been

0:15:160:15:21

knitted entirely out of wool.

0:15:210:15:24

I know! The lady who did that, she's an artist, right?

0:15:240:15:26

She's going to do the inside of the car - knit the inside of the car.

0:15:260:15:30

This is where the truth gets a little bit woolly.

0:15:300:15:32

She's got all the wool here for the different bits of the car.

0:15:320:15:34

She's got some wool for the seats and some wool for the head lamp.

0:15:340:15:37

I don't know why, cos they're on the outside of the car.

0:15:370:15:40

And then - there's one down there, the steering wheel.

0:15:400:15:42

Right. And there's a gearbox there.

0:15:420:15:44

That's sort of half in, half out, isn't it? The gearbox.

0:15:440:15:46

She's going to mix it all up.

0:15:460:15:48

He's going to come back to those boxes of wool.

0:15:480:15:50

I'll tell you what. Another one of my favourites.

0:15:500:15:52

You might have seen it round here, right?

0:15:520:15:54

There's a picture of the Queen made entirely of 1p coins.

0:15:540:15:57

-Have you seen that yet?

-No.

0:15:570:15:59

We have commissioned to have another one of those pictures made, right?

0:15:590:16:02

And it's not going to be the Queen, this one -

0:16:020:16:03

it's going to be Harry Styles.

0:16:030:16:05

I know. Harry Styles from One Direction.

0:16:050:16:07

We're going to have a picture of him made entirely of 10p coins,

0:16:070:16:11

and it's going to be done in the same style.

0:16:110:16:13

You see what I said? It's going to be done in the same style.

0:16:130:16:17

And what we thought would be a nice idea,

0:16:170:16:19

is if your class have one of the 10ps in the picture of Harry Styles.

0:16:190:16:22

Wouldn't that be great? So we need to mark the coins,

0:16:220:16:25

so when you come back in about a year or so's time,

0:16:250:16:27

and you get here and, you know, you look at the Harry Styles picture,

0:16:270:16:30

You'll be able to look at the coins and see yours, cos we'll mark it,

0:16:300:16:33

so I need somebody to put some marks on the coin for me.

0:16:330:16:36

-Yes. This young lady. What's your name?

-Jessica.

0:16:360:16:38

Wonderful. Come out here, Jessica. Wonderful. Come and stand here.

0:16:380:16:41

Now, what I want you to do, Jessica, for me,

0:16:410:16:43

is I want you to write your initials nice and big on this coin like that.

0:16:430:16:47

That's it. Just write your initials on there for me.

0:16:470:16:50

That is lovely. Fantastic. Thank you, Jessica.

0:16:500:16:53

You can have a seat now, there we are.

0:16:530:16:55

We've got Jessica's initials on the coin.

0:16:550:16:57

Now, we're actually collecting the coins in a jar.

0:16:570:17:00

We haven't collected any yet. This is the first one we've collected.

0:17:000:17:03

What we'll do is get these coins, right?

0:17:030:17:05

And the artist will put them all in the picture where we need them.

0:17:050:17:08

Once they're up there and they're all, they're all there,

0:17:080:17:10

what you can do is you can, you can just, that, you can...

0:17:100:17:14

Oh.

0:17:140:17:16

Oh, dear. Did anybody see that drop on the floor?

0:17:160:17:19

-No.

-No, neither did... Did, um, did anybody hear it drop on the floor?

0:17:190:17:24

-No.

-The coin's disappeared. The class are disappointed.

0:17:240:17:27

This is all part of the magic that John's weaving.

0:17:270:17:30

Do you know what could have happened?

0:17:300:17:32

It could have fell in one of these boxes.

0:17:320:17:35

My mother always said to me,

0:17:350:17:36

"If you lose anything, have a look in the glove box."

0:17:360:17:38

I think this might have the wool for the glove box here.

0:17:380:17:41

Told you the boxes would be important.

0:17:410:17:42

The box, look - here.

0:17:420:17:44

Look what it says on the front there. Glove box.

0:17:460:17:48

Now, I need somebody to help me have a look and see

0:17:480:17:50

if the coin's fallen into the glove box box.

0:17:500:17:52

-What's your name, fella?

-Alex.

0:17:520:17:54

Alex. Come on out, Alex. Lovely. Come and stand over here.

0:17:540:17:57

Alex, just open up the glove box box.

0:17:570:17:59

And have a look in there. Can you see any wool?

0:17:590:18:01

Wonderful. Take that out for me.

0:18:010:18:02

Oh, there's a lovely ball of wool to make the glove box, look.

0:18:020:18:05

I'll put that there. Now, maybe that 10p has fallen through that box.

0:18:050:18:08

Maybe it's fallen through that box and maybe it's fallen in the wool.

0:18:080:18:12

Some spare wool for making the car, perhaps?

0:18:120:18:14

We need to unravel that, so can you do me a favour?

0:18:140:18:16

Well, just pop that in the jar. That's it.

0:18:160:18:18

You just turn first that way a little bit.

0:18:180:18:20

Let me grab the end of that. Now we'll unravel it.

0:18:200:18:23

All right, we'll unravel it.

0:18:230:18:24

If you see a coin in there would you let me know, Alex?

0:18:240:18:26

Wonderful. I can't believe it would fall in the box, in the other box,

0:18:260:18:29

in the other box, in the other box, inside the wool,

0:18:290:18:32

but can you see anything in the wool?

0:18:320:18:34

What's in there, Alex? A box!

0:18:340:18:36

There's another box inside the wool that was inside the box

0:18:360:18:39

that was inside the box.

0:18:390:18:41

Is John off his box?

0:18:410:18:42

Alex, would you take the box out of there? That's it.

0:18:420:18:45

Oh, it's got an elastic band around it.

0:18:450:18:46

Take the elastic band off for me, Alex.

0:18:460:18:48

Wonderful. Well, open the box. I'll take the elastic band.

0:18:480:18:51

Open up the box.

0:18:510:18:52

There was a box inside the wool inside a box inside a box.

0:18:520:18:55

What's inside the box? A little bag.

0:18:550:18:57

Take the bag out for me, Alex.

0:18:570:18:59

The plot thickens.

0:18:590:19:00

Can you feel anything inside the bag, Alex?

0:19:000:19:02

I'm more excited than you would know, Alex.

0:19:020:19:04

Look, open up the bag. This is exciting, isn't it?

0:19:040:19:07

Have a look inside. What's inside the bag, Alex?

0:19:070:19:09

It can't be, can it?

0:19:090:19:10

What is it? It's a 10p.

0:19:100:19:12

It is.

0:19:120:19:14

Show the boys and girls the signature on the front.

0:19:140:19:17

Isn't that weird?

0:19:190:19:20

Jessica can't believe it. Nor can the whole trip.

0:19:200:19:23

That is Jessica's signature on the 10p coin that was in the bag

0:19:240:19:30

in the wool in the box, in the other box, in the other box.

0:19:300:19:33

Well done. I'll take that off you. Alex, you go and have a seat.

0:19:330:19:36

Give Alex a big round of applause for helping.

0:19:360:19:39

The coin was marked but lost.

0:19:390:19:40

So you can just, you can...

0:19:400:19:43

Then it reappeared in the most unlikely place.

0:19:430:19:47

But the impossible is about to get even impossiblier.

0:19:470:19:50

Is that even a word? It should be.

0:19:500:19:51

Can someone give that Fergus a hand?

0:19:510:19:53

I seem to have locked the key into the box.

0:19:530:19:56

Now it's time for John to reveal the secret in Tricks of the Trade.

0:19:570:20:02

John will show you how to get the drink from this bottle

0:20:020:20:05

into this glass without tipping the bottle or without

0:20:050:20:09

sucking it through the straw.

0:20:090:20:11

Do you vibrate the table?

0:20:110:20:12

Nah.

0:20:140:20:15

Do you do it a drop at a time?

0:20:150:20:17

Nope, you can't pick up the straw. Here's how.

0:20:170:20:21

You simply put your mouth on the bottle and blow.

0:20:210:20:24

The pressure forces the liquid out through the straw into the glass.

0:20:250:20:30

You can try that one with the juice at the breakfast table.

0:20:300:20:33

Thirsty work but someone's got to do it.

0:20:330:20:36

Back to the Museum of Oddities

0:20:390:20:41

and John did something unexplained with a coin and some wool.

0:20:410:20:44

But things are about to unravel even further.

0:20:440:20:48

Hello, boys and girls. How are you?

0:20:480:20:50

Fine.

0:20:500:20:51

Now, I'm responsible here for the artefacts that

0:20:510:20:55

come in to the attraction.

0:20:550:20:57

I make sure they arrive safely and I make sure they are stored properly.

0:20:570:21:02

I rack, I stack and I pack.

0:21:020:21:04

-I do all of those things together. Isn't that exciting?

-Yeah.

0:21:040:21:08

If you say so, mate. Good rhyme, though.

0:21:080:21:11

Now this type of box is the typical type of box

0:21:110:21:14

we would use to rack, to stack and to pack things.

0:21:140:21:17

So you can see here, it's got a rather small 75ml hole and that

0:21:170:21:23

allows for air to go into the box, circulate and stop mould and mildew.

0:21:230:21:28

And all those horrible things in the box.

0:21:280:21:30

-Would you like to see what's inside the box?

-Yeah.

0:21:300:21:33

Not so much an old box of artefacts as a severe case of magic.

0:21:330:21:38

I need a helper. A wee man or a wee girl.

0:21:380:21:40

-You, sir. What's your name?

-Ricky.

0:21:400:21:42

Ricky. Will you come up here? Give Ricky a round of applause.

0:21:420:21:46

Ricky's coming up to examine the box.

0:21:460:21:48

Now, obviously this box has extreme valuables in and I'm talking

0:21:480:21:54

worth a fortune, so Ricky, I'd like you to open up the box.

0:21:540:21:58

So if you take that. There we go.

0:21:580:22:00

And if you just put the key in the padlock and then just turn the key.

0:22:000:22:05

It's pretty tricky, Ricky. There we go. That's grand. Thanks very much.

0:22:050:22:08

And if Ricky, if you just stand to one side. Great.

0:22:080:22:11

And we'll open up the box and Ricky, what I'd like you to do is have a tap

0:22:110:22:14

round the box and make sure that really is like a proper solid box.

0:22:140:22:20

Good solid proof.

0:22:200:22:21

Tap the top as well. Excellent.

0:22:210:22:24

Ricky, you can sit back down.

0:22:240:22:25

Give Ricky a round of applause.

0:22:250:22:27

Now, I'd like to share with you the first item in the box.

0:22:280:22:33

It is...

0:22:330:22:35

A Chinese dragon mask.

0:22:350:22:39

They're impressed already. No magic required.

0:22:390:22:42

This is going to go well.

0:22:420:22:44

I didn't even know that dragons wore masks.

0:22:440:22:46

That's his little joke.

0:22:460:22:48

Boo!

0:22:480:22:50

Pretty cool. That's the first item.

0:22:500:22:52

Now, the second of the items is my favourite.

0:22:520:22:56

It's the shawl of Donegal.

0:22:570:22:59

And he's going to pull the rug out from underneath the school trip.

0:22:590:23:02

We'll actually come back to that later.

0:23:020:23:03

I'll leave that on the side. Lastly we have a African drum.

0:23:030:23:10

Wow.

0:23:100:23:11

Yep, that's impressive.

0:23:110:23:12

Now, years and years

0:23:130:23:15

and years ago the tribes used these to communicate between each other.

0:23:150:23:19

And I'm pretty good at playing the drum.

0:23:190:23:21

-Would you like to hear?

-Yes.

-Are you sure?

-Yes.

0:23:210:23:23

Go on, Fergus. Hit it.

0:23:230:23:26

Are yous readys?

0:23:260:23:28

Yes.

0:23:280:23:29

Now right there, what I've done is communicate with my mammy,

0:23:340:23:38

asking her what's for tea.

0:23:380:23:40

DRUMMING SOUND

0:23:400:23:41

This is strange.

0:23:430:23:44

That's brilliant. That's my favourite.

0:23:440:23:46

That's sausages, chips and tiny-weeny little peas.

0:23:460:23:50

Isn't that brilliant?

0:23:500:23:51

Brilliant but unexplained.

0:23:510:23:53

Surely the class suspects something fishy is going on?

0:23:530:23:56

Now, the box obviously, with its valuables, can't stay

0:23:560:24:00

unlocked for long, so it's important that we close the box right up.

0:24:000:24:05

Watch that box. That's where the magic's going to happen.

0:24:050:24:08

Back on like so.

0:24:080:24:12

Empty but fully locked and secured.

0:24:120:24:14

Now I'm the only person here in the entire attraction that is

0:24:140:24:20

entrusted with this key right here and this padlock.

0:24:200:24:24

Are they fools? Fergus can't be trusted with anything.

0:24:240:24:27

And that's because I'm an extremely reliable individual...

0:24:270:24:31

-Whatever, mate.

-..who wouldn't think of losing such a...

0:24:310:24:34

Uh-oh! The key's fallen through a tiny hole in the box.

0:24:340:24:39

I seem to have knocked the key into the box. Oh, deary me.

0:24:390:24:45

You're trying to grab it through the hole. Careful, mate.

0:24:450:24:48

Would you come and tell them a thing about the shawl of Donegal?

0:24:480:24:51

-All right, I'll come and have a go.

-I can't get the key.

0:24:510:24:53

All right. Don't worry, lad - I'll show them the shawl of Donegal.

0:24:530:24:56

There we go. Sally, can you give me a hand?

0:24:560:24:58

Could you just grab that? This is beautiful.

0:24:580:25:00

This is a shawl of Donegal. Look at that.

0:25:000:25:03

Look. Isn't that wonderful?

0:25:030:25:05

That there is a prime example of Northern Irish weavery.

0:25:050:25:08

You can see on the top...

0:25:080:25:09

Truly a pro, Fergus is still keeping it going

0:25:090:25:12

while he fumbles around in the box.

0:25:120:25:14

Now let me try and get this key.

0:25:140:25:16

And on the bottom, you've got an extremely traditional weave

0:25:160:25:20

that we're used to seeing.

0:25:200:25:21

-I've got it!

-He's got the key!

0:25:210:25:24

-I've got the key!

-Oh!

0:25:240:25:25

Whoa! He's fallen through the tiny hole into the box.

0:25:260:25:29

They can't believe it. Fergus is small but he's not that small.

0:25:300:25:34

-Oh.

-Let me out!

0:25:340:25:36

-I can't hear. Give us the key.

-Let me out.

0:25:360:25:38

I can't hear a word you're saying.

0:25:380:25:39

All right. Stop banging and I'll let you out.

0:25:390:25:41

Honestly. I don't know how you've done that.

0:25:410:25:44

-I don't know how you've got yourself in there, lad.

-Ah!

0:25:440:25:47

Now, boys and girls,

0:25:480:25:50

unfortunately that is not the first time that's happened.

0:25:500:25:53

He's in one piece.

0:25:530:25:54

And the class are about to do their pieces when the truth comes out too.

0:25:540:25:58

Now, boys and girls.

0:25:580:26:00

As he has let me out of the box,

0:26:000:26:03

it's time I let the cat out of the bag.

0:26:030:26:06

I am actually not someone who works here at this here attraction.

0:26:070:26:11

My name is Fergus.

0:26:110:26:14

My name's John.

0:26:140:26:15

And we are both magicians.

0:26:150:26:19

And all of you have been set up by your schools and your teachers

0:26:200:26:24

and your parents and there's a camera over there, there's

0:26:240:26:27

a camera over there, and you're all going to be on the CBBC show

0:26:270:26:31

Help! My School Trip Is Magic!

0:26:310:26:33

The class went off like a jack in the box after seeing

0:26:360:26:38

Fergus in a box.

0:26:380:26:40

I thought that trick was unbelievable.

0:26:410:26:44

Fergus locked the key into the tiny hole and tried to get it back,

0:26:440:26:47

but he fell in and they fell for it.

0:26:470:26:50

He appeared in the box and it was shocking.

0:26:500:26:54

Would someone give Fergus a hand?

0:26:540:26:56

He's got himself in a tight spot.

0:26:560:26:58

I can't hear a word you're saying.

0:26:580:27:00

Maybe he magicked himself into the box.

0:27:000:27:03

It was definitely him as he climbed out in order to come clean.

0:27:050:27:09

I think that trick was really magic.

0:27:100:27:14

Yeah, it was. In fact, this whole school trip was magic.

0:27:140:27:19

Help! My School Trip Is Magic.

0:27:190:27:22

Shawl of Donegal. More like the sheet of indiscrete.

0:27:260:27:29

I'm going to ask for a blanket ban on those kind of tricks.

0:27:290:27:32

See you later.

0:27:320:27:34

But until then, if you're on a school trip and you think something

0:27:340:27:37

magic's going on maybe you'll find yourself shouting

0:27:370:27:40

Help! My School Trip Is Magic!
