0:00:02 > 0:00:03Magic has everything.

0:00:03 > 0:00:04From a heavy frog...

0:00:06 > 0:00:09..to a fish that's incredibly light!

0:00:09 > 0:00:11We'll see some shocking moments,

0:00:11 > 0:00:14and some sweet ones too.

0:00:14 > 0:00:15Welcome to Now You See It.

0:00:15 > 0:00:16I'm really confused!

0:00:29 > 0:00:31Like your eggs fresh?

0:00:31 > 0:00:32It's become a chick!

0:00:35 > 0:00:38That really is magic - or nature.

0:00:38 > 0:00:40MAN SHRIEKS

0:00:40 > 0:00:41TAPPING

0:00:41 > 0:00:43Excuse me, watch this.

0:00:43 > 0:00:44Look. Sugar.

0:00:45 > 0:00:49If you had astonishing magical powers, what would you do?

0:00:49 > 0:00:52How about make small amounts of sugar disappear?

0:00:53 > 0:00:57What's he doing with it? He's putting it into his hand. What now?

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Let's get another one.

0:01:00 > 0:01:01This is a trick that involves

0:01:01 > 0:01:04pouring sugar carefully into your clenched fist

0:01:04 > 0:01:07and being able to count just a little bit higher than one.

0:01:09 > 0:01:10Two down.

0:01:12 > 0:01:13This is the weird part.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19There's absolutely no clue as to how he did that.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23Here's some good old-fashioned home-made magic.

0:01:23 > 0:01:26It's the famous Loo Roll And Egg trick! Success!

0:01:27 > 0:01:30Now it's this boy's turn to do a trick.

0:01:30 > 0:01:33Magically trying to make his front teeth disappear.

0:01:33 > 0:01:35Anyone fancy kissing this frog?

0:01:35 > 0:01:38It might turn into a little prince, then a big prince,

0:01:38 > 0:01:41then a little prince, then a big prince, then a little one...

0:01:41 > 0:01:43Yeah, you get the...

0:01:45 > 0:01:46Time to say...

0:01:50 > 0:01:54Something very strange is going on in this shopping centre.

0:01:54 > 0:01:57No, not a furniture shop actually selling its sofas at full price -

0:01:57 > 0:01:59that never happens.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02People are being teleported! How enterprising!

0:02:02 > 0:02:04Little joke for Star Trek fans there.

0:02:04 > 0:02:07We don't know where he will end up, so do look out for him.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11We've got Angus here, he's in charge of the science...

0:02:11 > 0:02:14Either that, or he normally works on a department-store make-up counter.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16Why do they always wear white coats?

0:02:16 > 0:02:19WHIRRING AND WHOOSHING

0:02:19 > 0:02:23Now, activate teleportation device and set faces of crowd to stunned!

0:02:23 > 0:02:27They're going to transport him to where no man has gone before.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30So, presumably, a scented-candle shop.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33- How was that for you? - Oh, mate, er, awesome.

0:02:33 > 0:02:34Shall we get another one?

0:02:34 > 0:02:35Yeah, it's a nice backpack,

0:02:35 > 0:02:38but I'd probably want more than hand luggage

0:02:38 > 0:02:40if I was going to be sent through time and space.

0:02:40 > 0:02:44Angus finishes sending an e-mail, and we're ready.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47- Point him out, everyone. I can't see him.- There he is!

0:02:47 > 0:02:49Whoa!

0:02:49 > 0:02:51WHOA!

0:02:51 > 0:02:55Oh, actually, do we want to teleport Christian back here

0:02:55 > 0:02:56without him knowing?

0:02:56 > 0:02:58Angus, beam him back.

0:02:58 > 0:03:01WHIRRING AND WHOOSHING

0:03:01 > 0:03:02How do they do that?

0:03:02 > 0:03:05All will be revealed later in the show.

0:03:07 > 0:03:11Still at the shops, this magician and his young assistant

0:03:11 > 0:03:14have found a sure-fire way to avoid arguments over Monopoly.

0:03:14 > 0:03:15Don't play the game at all,

0:03:15 > 0:03:18just let the box float spookily between you

0:03:18 > 0:03:19in the way boxes really can't.

0:03:21 > 0:03:22See?

0:03:28 > 0:03:29WOMEN SHRIEK

0:03:29 > 0:03:31What is that magical spark

0:03:31 > 0:03:34that appears between two people stealing an intimate moment?

0:03:34 > 0:03:37Is it love, or is it a small electric shock

0:03:37 > 0:03:39caused by a rigged pack of playing cards?

0:03:39 > 0:03:41It's the second one, isn't it?

0:03:41 > 0:03:44Held in a certain way, this pack of cards

0:03:44 > 0:03:46can give somebody a small zap of electricity.

0:03:46 > 0:03:49So the trick - to persuade passers-by

0:03:49 > 0:03:51that when both people think of the same card

0:03:51 > 0:03:53the spark of magic happens!

0:03:53 > 0:03:57Oh, and it only happens when they kiss. Really? They'll fall for that?

0:03:57 > 0:03:59- Oh, my...!- Yes, in a word.

0:04:01 > 0:04:05That was magic. Dude, that was a spark. Ace of spades?

0:04:06 > 0:04:08NARRATOR SMIRKS

0:04:10 > 0:04:12Yeah, I'm a very magical kisser.

0:04:12 > 0:04:14Apparently, when doing this trick,

0:04:14 > 0:04:17it's incredibly important to only pick beautiful people.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19Of course, you can fool them once.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22Obviously they're not going to fall for it again.

0:04:22 > 0:04:24My mistake.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27Little tip - if you want that reaction after kissing

0:04:27 > 0:04:30but can't do magic, just eat an entire bowl of garlic.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33No tongues is what they'll have if they keep doing that.

0:04:33 > 0:04:35Behold!

0:04:35 > 0:04:40The mysterious, floating orb!

0:04:40 > 0:04:43- HE LAUGHS - Whoo...!

0:04:43 > 0:04:44Russell Brand's let himself go.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47Whoo-ooh... Ah-ha! Soup's on!

0:04:50 > 0:04:54Fancy an ice cream? Got a couple of hours to spare while you wait?

0:04:55 > 0:04:58Here we are at a street market in Turkey. That's "bazaar"!

0:05:00 > 0:05:04Meet the Great Soprendo, or as he's known locally, Mr Whippy.

0:05:05 > 0:05:09He's got a lot of tricks, he must have hundreds and thousands -

0:05:09 > 0:05:10and a lot of tricks!

0:05:13 > 0:05:15The customer's starting to look a bit fed up.

0:05:15 > 0:05:18Well, it is a long time to wait for just one Cornetto!

0:05:22 > 0:05:24I have to say, I think this is "Fab!"

0:05:24 > 0:05:27Which is probably what he wishes he'd ordered.

0:05:30 > 0:05:34Although, right, imagine the chaos if you asked for a Twister!

0:05:37 > 0:05:39That customer should phone the Cones Hotline!

0:05:39 > 0:05:42Yeah, a little topical dad-joke there.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52Now let's find out what happens when, instead of going large,

0:05:52 > 0:05:54you go really, really large!

0:05:57 > 0:06:00That giant straw is basically what Gandalf would have held

0:06:00 > 0:06:03if Lord Of The Rings had been sponsored by a fast-food chain.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14The big question is, will the straw actually work?

0:06:14 > 0:06:16Well, he's just going to have to suck it and see.

0:06:16 > 0:06:17Suck it and see!

0:06:22 > 0:06:25Onlookers are gobsmacked and can't believe what they're seeing.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29Except her - she is not that bothered.

0:06:39 > 0:06:42Moving on from the question why, to the question...

0:06:45 > 0:06:48Can we have another volunteer?

0:06:48 > 0:06:50Remember the shoppers who were being teleported?

0:06:53 > 0:06:55Beam her up, Angus! Safer using the escalator.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01Let's ask some of the earthlings who witnessed it

0:07:01 > 0:07:04how they think it was done.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06I don't know, I'm really confused.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08Thanks, very helpful(!)

0:07:08 > 0:07:10She was in there, and then she just went...

0:07:10 > 0:07:12Again, thanks for the input(!)

0:07:12 > 0:07:13Is she a twin?

0:07:13 > 0:07:16A twin? Don't be ridiculous. Oh, yes, they're twins.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18That's what I thought as well, mm.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20But where do they get so many twins from? Easy!

0:07:20 > 0:07:21They're in a shopping centre

0:07:21 > 0:07:24and just took advantage of all the two-for-one offers.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26But we've got even better value than that.

0:07:26 > 0:07:29Here's three big finishes for the price of one!

0:07:29 > 0:07:31I want you to pull...

0:07:31 > 0:07:34It's Criss Angel, standing in a scrapyard,

0:07:34 > 0:07:37on top of a plank of wood, suspended between plastic buckets,

0:07:37 > 0:07:39wrists tied and held by the Hairy Bikers!

0:07:39 > 0:07:42Yeah, we've all been there.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44Good. DJ, George, come on in, grab the cloth.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48Just, yeah, keep it about...

0:07:48 > 0:07:51If you bring it up a little bit more, that's fine. Little bit more.

0:07:51 > 0:07:52There you go, good.

0:07:52 > 0:07:55I'm nervous. What are you doing behind that sheet, Criss?

0:07:55 > 0:07:57You're not taking your trousers off, are you?

0:07:57 > 0:07:59Watch.

0:08:00 > 0:08:01Now!

0:08:02 > 0:08:03Criss has vanished!

0:08:03 > 0:08:06And now reappears in a toyshop getting people to bring him

0:08:06 > 0:08:09their choice from the display of stuffed animals.

0:08:09 > 0:08:12They don't normally do a lot, stuffed animals,

0:08:12 > 0:08:14but Criss weaves his magic over this little elephant,

0:08:14 > 0:08:16and look what happens...

0:08:22 > 0:08:24It comes to life! Briefly.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27But no time to hang about.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29Criss has magically transported down the road

0:08:29 > 0:08:33and is helping himself to someone else's fish-shaped nibbles!

0:08:33 > 0:08:36Whatever you want, just take one out right now.

0:08:36 > 0:08:37Place it down.

0:08:37 > 0:08:40I want you to watch this carefully,

0:08:40 > 0:08:43I'm going to do this really slowly for you. Watch...

0:08:47 > 0:08:49GASPING AND SHRIEKING

0:08:49 > 0:08:51CHEERING, LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:08:57 > 0:09:00I had been thinking about having fish fingers for my tea,

0:09:00 > 0:09:01but, er, suddenly...

0:09:01 > 0:09:02ooh, not so hungry.

0:09:09 > 0:09:10Now!

0:09:10 > 0:09:12CROWD GASPS

0:09:12 > 0:09:14The fish is gone.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16CROWD CHATTERS

0:09:20 > 0:09:22- What the...?- Where'd it go?

0:09:22 > 0:09:23But where's the goldfish?

0:09:23 > 0:09:25APPLAUSE

0:09:27 > 0:09:29SHRIEKING AND GASPING

0:09:29 > 0:09:32This is something that goldfish won't forget in a hurry.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34Oh, it has done.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39That's it. Join us next time on Now You See It.

0:09:41 > 0:09:42Soup's on!

0:09:42 > 0:09:44And now I'm going to disappear into thin air.

0:09:46 > 0:09:48OK, I'll be honest - I'm still here.
