Episode 6 Help! My Supply Teacher Is Magic

.

CBBC have sent these four magicians into your schools.

They are some of the hottest magicians in the country.

And when they are not in your classrooms,

they are out in the public thrilling families.

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

You need a £1 coin, a 50p coin and a 10p coin.

If you haven't got them, go and get them all now! Go on! Hurry!

James will hang out here and wait for you.

Are you back? Ready? Good.

The challenge is for you to get the £1

between the 50p and the 10p.

Sounds easy, eh? But there are rules.

The rules are that you can touch the 50p but mustn't move it...

you're allowed to move, but not allowed to touch, the 10p...

and, following these rules,

you have to get the £1 between the 50p and the 10p.

Those rules make it much more tricky. Can you work it out?

Keep watching and you'll find out later in the show.

Right now, magician John is in a theme park

to do a trick you'll never be able to work out.

This is Rosie and Lucy, they have no idea that they are about to star

in their own magic show. Watch carefully.

Do you have a coin on you?

Can you do me a favour?

Can you sign the coin so that we'll recognise it when we see it again.

-OK.

-Wonderful. And just recap the pen, I'll take that.

Now, what we're going to do

is something very interesting with that coin, signed by Anthony.

We're going to take Anthony's coin

and we're going to push it through this slot in the deck of cards. Nrgh!

-Can you see it going through?

-Yes.

-Let me just tap it. You can tap.

That's it. And tap it again.

That's it. You can feel it coming through.

There it is coming through on the other side.

Do you want to take it out for me?

Oh! Pretty impressive, huh?

How did he get the coin through the box? Surely it must be empty?

You're thinking, "Perhaps there's no cards in the deck?"

That's what everyone thinks, and you're right

because inside the deck of cards there is just...

Come on, out!

Oh! A solid...block of steel.

Cool!

What? A metal block?! It's real cos I heard it bang!

You can hold it. See how heavy it is.

Awesome.

'He slipped a coin through the hole and it came out the other side.'

Pretty impressive, huh?

I don't know how it got through. It was amazing.

Time to find out how to fool your friends in...

Me and James challenged you

to get the £1 between the two other coins.

Sounds easy, eh? But there are rules.

The rules are that you can touch the 50p but mustn't move it,

you're allowed to move, but not touch, the 10p.

And somehow, following these rules,

you have to get the £1 between the 50p and the 10p.

Maybe you think it works if you flick it? Nah.

What about if you blow it?

No way! Using a big magnet?

Uh-uh. Come on!

The secret is to get the £1 between the other coins

by holding the 50p still and hitting it with the one pound.

That moves the 10p without you touching it. Let's get a rewind.

Watch closely - hold the 50p still, hit it with the £1

and that it moves the 10p without you touching it.

Then simply place the pound coin in the middle.

Did you get it? Are you amazing already?

Now you've all got something to show off with in the playground.

This is Jack, he's been set up by his mum

and has no idea what is about to happen.

Hi, do you mind if I sit here?

Here comes magician Catherine. She's got grapes and a nice book to read.

Sorry.

Jack thinks he's having a normal day out in the park

but it's all about to get weird

because Catherine is about to do an amazing trick.

What on earth?!

I can't believe it - let's get a rewind!

The grapes are floating out of the punnet and into her mouth.

That was awesome! Jack can't believe it.

Well, the grape just went off into the air without anything happening.

Quite odd. Quite cool, though.
