Prepare for a journey into the world of magic.

0:00:020:00:03

Put your feet up

0:00:030:00:05

and enjoy some of the top-quality entertainment on offer.

0:00:050:00:07

Oh!

0:00:070:00:08

Well, mostly top-quality.

0:00:080:00:10

Welcome to Now You See It.

0:00:100:00:12

I'm delighted to introduce to you...

0:00:250:00:27

Woof!

0:00:280:00:29

Prepare to be amazed, astounded and sniffed in the crotch.

0:00:310:00:34

First, he covers a hanky in doggy snot.

0:00:350:00:37

And then, much to everyone's relief, makes it go away.

0:00:420:00:45

But, hang on...there's more.

0:00:470:00:50

Who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks?

0:00:500:00:54

Do you know what? More dogs should wear capes.

0:00:540:00:57

Oh, sorry, concentrate.

0:00:570:00:59

There's the ace of clubs.

0:00:590:01:01

Actually, what's bothering me most is where that person's head is. Hmm.

0:01:010:01:06

He's very good at snuffling the cards.

0:01:060:01:08

Oh, now that's clever!

0:01:100:01:11

So, let's get this straight - he can do all that,

0:01:140:01:17

but he can't use a pooper-scooper.

0:01:170:01:19

Here's a thrilling bit of animal magic now

0:01:220:01:24

which seems to involve the closing of a drawer.

0:01:240:01:26

But wait...

0:01:280:01:30

Ta-da!

0:01:300:01:32

Strange name for a cat.

0:01:320:01:33

And here's a cat that can predict

0:01:350:01:37

exactly what its owner is going to do.

0:01:370:01:39

As long as the owner keeps doing exactly the same thing.

0:01:420:01:46

No, that's not fair.

0:01:460:01:48

It's actually the cat making the human do that.

0:01:480:01:51

Meanwhile, the kitchen is full of kittens.

0:01:510:01:54

Oh, the ginger one's pleased with itself.

0:01:550:01:57

It's got the other one to do all the hard work!

0:01:570:02:00

The real trick here is how they managed to open the carton.

0:02:000:02:04

I still have trouble with that one.

0:02:040:02:06

Now, then, prepare to not see something that was definitely there

0:02:060:02:08

right up to the point that it suddenly wasn't,

0:02:080:02:10

as here on Now You See It, we bring you...

0:02:100:02:13

Here's a trick you can try.

0:02:150:02:17

First, get yourself a small canary in a cage.

0:02:170:02:20

Then plonk yourself on a park bench.

0:02:200:02:21

Next to someone else, yeah? You need an audience.

0:02:210:02:24

All you have to do is make sure they're watching, then...

0:02:240:02:27

Now you see it...

0:02:290:02:30

Oh, now it's gone!

0:02:310:02:33

That cross-legged lady looks as if

0:02:330:02:35

this sort of thing happens to her every day.

0:02:350:02:37

As I think we're aware by now...

0:02:410:02:42

And when it comes to mastering the art of juggling,

0:02:450:02:47

there are three fundamental rules.

0:02:470:02:50

Mind your head...

0:02:500:02:51

..mind your head...

0:02:540:02:55

..and here's the really important one -

0:02:570:02:58

if you're juggling with fire,

0:02:580:03:00

yeah, mind your head.

0:03:000:03:02

AUDIENCE GASPS

0:03:020:03:03

At least the audience was sympathetic.

0:03:030:03:05

Ah, good, the lift's here.

0:03:080:03:09

These people are on their way up to a Star Wars convention in London.

0:03:110:03:14

They can't wait to get there.

0:03:160:03:18

But they're having to.

0:03:180:03:20

He may look like a Jedi Knight

0:03:200:03:22

displaying his astonishing powers of mind control,

0:03:220:03:25

but perhaps you've noticed

0:03:250:03:26

he's getting a little help from Hand Solo over to the right.

0:03:260:03:29

As Yoda might say, "Plonker, this man is!"

0:03:320:03:35

Those people are so wishing he was in a galaxy far, far away.

0:03:380:03:42

You're putting your hand into some sort of signal.

0:03:430:03:46

-The Force.

-Yeah.

0:03:460:03:47

-Are you in a rush?

-Yeah.

0:03:470:03:49

-All right, I'll let it go.

-Yeah.

-Oh, my God!

0:03:490:03:51

Sometimes, I wish I was a different kind of Force.

0:03:510:03:53

THEY LAUGH

0:03:530:03:55

Let's move upstairs,

0:03:560:03:57

where a different kind of force is being generated by a yoga teacher

0:03:570:04:00

with more than a passing resemblance to Darth Vader.

0:04:000:04:04

Lean back into your seated position, OK?

0:04:040:04:07

These people are trying their best.

0:04:070:04:09

They can do the mountain pose and the cobra,

0:04:090:04:12

but they can't manage this one, the show-off.

0:04:120:04:15

The class usually specialises in a form of yoga called ayurvedic.

0:04:160:04:19

All in the abs, it's all in the abs.

0:04:190:04:21

Although today it's a different form of yoga,

0:04:210:04:23

called ayu-having-a-laugh-ic.

0:04:230:04:25

Oh, that man's very flexible!

0:04:280:04:30

Although he can't do Tuesdays.

0:04:310:04:33

When you lock your keys in your car...

0:04:350:04:37

Whoa! I hope it WAS his car!

0:04:380:04:41

But not all tricks go as smoothly as that, as we discover in...

0:04:460:04:50

Murray! Murray, Murray, Murray.

0:04:510:04:53

Murray, Murray, Murray, do you like card tricks?

0:04:530:04:56

Top American magician David Williamson should have paid heed

0:04:560:04:58

to the old saying - never work with animals,

0:04:580:05:01

or a child called Murray.

0:05:010:05:02

Murray, Murray, Murray. Now, watch very closely.

0:05:020:05:05

-We have three cards.

-No, there's four.

0:05:050:05:08

I can see another one under this one.

0:05:080:05:10

LAUGHTER

0:05:100:05:13

APPLAUSE

0:05:130:05:16

CHEERING

0:05:260:05:28

Proof that you can fool some of the people all of the time,

0:05:280:05:30

but you can only fool Murray during rehearsals - and never again.

0:05:300:05:34

Let's hear it for Murray!

0:05:360:05:37

APPLAUSE

0:05:370:05:39

You know how annoying it is when you're out and about

0:05:410:05:43

and suddenly you realise you need a bowling ball?

0:05:430:05:46

Not a problem for this man.

0:05:460:05:47

Ha!

0:05:590:06:00

Wow!

0:06:020:06:04

Wow, what?

0:06:040:06:05

What?

0:06:080:06:09

Come on!

0:06:120:06:14

Now let's find out what can happen when you use a bowling bowl

0:06:140:06:17

for a balancing act whilst on a cruise ship on a choppy sea.

0:06:170:06:20

A lawyer was on the scene in minutes, of course,

0:06:230:06:25

asking if that man had ever had an accident at work

0:06:250:06:28

that wasn't hilarious.

0:06:280:06:29

-Ow.

-LAUGHTER

0:06:290:06:31

And now, a man doing a trick with smaller balls.

0:06:340:06:37

He's really putting some effort into chalking that cue.

0:06:450:06:48

Well, that's not to be sneezed at.

0:06:510:06:54

-Atchoo!

-Oh, all right, then.

0:06:540:06:56

Musical Magic now.

0:06:580:06:59

And there's nothing worse than when your favourite band splits up.

0:06:590:07:03

Almost as impressive

0:07:120:07:13

as being the world's fastest piano-playing juggler.

0:07:130:07:15

MUSIC: Hungarian Rhapsody No 2 by Franz Liszt

0:07:170:07:20

And to be honest, the world's only one.

0:07:200:07:22

Oh, this clown's not happy.

0:07:240:07:26

Oh!

0:07:260:07:27

On the plus side, now he really has got a big red nose.

0:07:290:07:32

Let bafflement commence - it's our...

0:07:360:07:39

And straightaway, something smells fishy.

0:07:400:07:42

Oh, hang on, we are in a fish and chip shop!

0:07:420:07:45

-So, guys, how are you doing? I'm Damien. What's your name?

-Kurt.

0:07:450:07:48

-Kurt?

-Yeah.

-And?

-I'm Kadeem.

-Kadeem. Nice to meet you.

0:07:480:07:50

I'm going to show you a really cool trick.

0:07:500:07:52

I hope he isn't just going to make some cod and chips disappear

0:07:520:07:54

because, I'll be honest, I can do that, no problem.

0:07:540:07:56

Can you take any card out?

0:07:560:07:58

I'll take this one.

0:07:590:08:01

-King of hearts, right?

-Yes.

-Cool.

0:08:010:08:03

Can you sign your name on that really quickly?

0:08:030:08:05

You can use this as a little table, sort of thing.

0:08:050:08:07

Make it nice and big and clear.

0:08:070:08:09

Then just show the card to the camera as well.

0:08:100:08:12

Great. So, king of hearts.

0:08:120:08:14

Just place it back in anywhere you like.

0:08:140:08:17

-All the way in there, right?

-Yes.

-So I'll just put them away.

0:08:190:08:23

You've had your lunch from the very beginning,

0:08:230:08:24

it's been in your hands the whole entire time.

0:08:240:08:28

Can you slowly open up...?

0:08:280:08:30

Open it up.

0:08:300:08:31

Let me stand back a little bit!

0:08:310:08:33

Open it right up.

0:08:330:08:34

-OK, you can see it?

-That looks so tasty.

0:08:340:08:37

Can you lift up the fish for me, because he's holding the box? Yeah.

0:08:370:08:40

-Just lift it right up.

-May as well, it's stone-cold by now.

0:08:400:08:43

Can you break the fish open? Like...

0:08:430:08:45

-What?

-Break the fish open.

0:08:450:08:46

-Break it into...

-Break it open?

0:08:460:08:48

Oh!

0:08:510:08:52

Bruv, the card's in there!

0:08:520:08:54

KURT LAUGHS

0:08:540:08:55

And it's got my name on it!

0:08:550:08:57

Now, if he can end the trick by bringing it back to life,

0:08:570:09:00

I'll be even more impressed.

0:09:000:09:01

I don't understand, you never took the box from him.

0:09:010:09:03

Forget that, did he catch the fish and then batter it?

0:09:030:09:06

Bruv, it was inside the fish!

0:09:080:09:09

In it! Like, the fish had to have eaten this card.

0:09:090:09:12

I'm not sure digestion actually works like that.

0:09:120:09:14

I'm going to leave you be. Thanks a lot.

0:09:140:09:16

Bruv, it was inside the fish!

0:09:160:09:18

That has still got fish on it.

0:09:190:09:21

I even spelt my name wrong by accident, like an idiot!

0:09:210:09:24

Yeah, he really did!

0:09:240:09:25

That's it. Hold it together,

0:09:270:09:30

keep your feet on the ground,

0:09:300:09:32

keep your head down,

0:09:320:09:34

and we'll give you plenty to chew on next time on Now You See It.
