Where is all this Milk Coming From? Now You See It

Today, we make a cat from a frock, Dad gets a shock

and say hello to a glamorous blond called Hans Klok.

Welcome to Now You See It.

How you feeling, madam?

Nervous. I'm really nervous.

Oh, OK.

Check out Laurent Beretta's lovely all-black outfit.

He's just popping home to change.

And without the help of any camera tricks.

Brilliant!

Especially as he lives on the 26th floor and the lift's out of order.

There's some clothes I don't put in the laundry just because...

Like this shirt.

CAT MEOWS Aw, sweet!

But good luck trying to fold that neatly.

And finally, this T-shirt's been flying off the shelves.

Over to Cyril Takayama in Waikiki, where he's handing out free gifts.

-You guys want a balloon?

-Yes.

Now she's all set for the beach - hat, sunglasses, balloon.

Here you go. Oh!

THEY LAUGH

Aw!

-It's gone.

-I'm sorry.

-What's your name?

-Jade.

-Jade.

It's not a problem.

Jade, point to your balloon.

-No way.

-What?!

-No way.

-Tell it to come back.

-Come back, please.

Come back.

THEY LAUGH

It has indeed come back.

It's a balloomerang!

Hang on...

big stage, stylish lady, massive spinning box -

it can mean only one man...

Hans Klok.

Wow!

He's got the blondest hair

and the lowest cut shirt

in the world of magic.

And trust me, competition is fierce.

Hans is the world's fastest illusionist and we see him here

trying to break his previous record

of ten grand illusions in five minutes.

GASPING AND APPLAUSE

That's two.

But Hans can always find time for a superfluous twirl.

These tricks take weeks of preparation and sacrifice.

He had to pop over to his mum's house to borrow her curtains

for this one.

Brilliant. That's three down.

Let's come back later to see if Hans can achieve his magic goal.

-Can you mix those up?

-Yes.

-Quickly, little shuffle.

Over to New Mexico for a card trick now,

and Drummond Money-Coutts has borrowed Cyril's magic balloon.

And I'm going to leave the cards just here.

So we're going to come back to those in a moment. Can I borrow a ring?

-You've had this a long time?

-Yeah.

-It's safe.

-Yes.

-But if I take this...

Oh, that's handy.

Oh...

And I take the ring.

-Really?

-Oh...

And I close up the bag.

You feel that? You feel your ring in there?

-Yeah.

-Esta dentro?

-Yeah.

-Salvador?

-You feel that there?

-Yes, it is inside.

-There is now a risk.

A big risk.

-Take care about the ring.

-SHE LAUGHS

But if I let go of this bag, you could grab this.

This close, very close,

so I step back.

Don't lose it.

Because this is a big investment.

SHE LAUGHS

-How do you feel?

-No, no, no.

If this goes wrong, it's going to be her lawyer who's giving him a ring.

-How do you feel now?

-Nervous.

-Nervous?

Yes, because my ring over there.

How do you feel... How do you feel now?

Very nervous. Nervous. Give it back.

I hope he is actually a magician.

How do you feel...

-now?

-No, please.

-No!

OK.

I want to kill you.

-So your ring...

-Can you back?

Don't be sure he can make it reappear -

if he could do tricks like that, he'd have a fringe.

-Do you remember at the beginning you shuffled the cards?

-Yes, of course.

-And I've never touched this box.

-No, never.

Pick it up very slowly.

And you shake the box.

-BOX RATTLES

-Really?!

Watch this.

-This is my ring?!

-Watch. Watch.

Oh!

It's ended well, except of course for the balloon, which is

now floating somewhere over the Pacific Ocean.

Here's the perfect trick

if you want to get engaged to someone without them noticing.

Oh, goody, it's Hans again!

Remember, he's trying to do more than ten grand illusions

in just five minutes.

I wonder if Hans is lonely.

Most of these tricks seem to involve women appearing.

Yeah, just leave it there, we've got tricks to do.

Three minutes to go and that's five illusions completed.

Quick, do another one.

APPLAUSE

No time for twirls, Hans, you've got a clock to beat!

Don't worry, we'll be back in time for your big finish.

OK, it's time to ask, "How do they do that?" as Katherine Mills

shows us a trick with the stuff you spit out at the dentist.

When you're here in the Alps,

one of the most important things is to keep yourself hydrated.

Now, you can just drink fruit juice

but when it comes to hydration,

nothing beats water.

What?! But how?

To make this effect work, all you need is a glass,

a piece of coloured plastic to fit the glass and a cloth.

Put the plastic into the glass and then fill the glass up with water

to the top of the plastic, giving the illusion of a coloured drink.

When you cover the glass up with the cloth,

you remove the piece of plastic, revealing clear water.

You don't HAVE to be in the Alps for that trick to work.

Ready for more magical liquid?

So, the milk filled a small cup, but then fills a bigger cup?

Don't worry, Mum'll be home soon.

Into cup number three.

Where's all this milk coming from?

If he carries on like this,

that baby's going to be drinking his milk out of a dustbin.

Yeah, seriously, er, where is all this milk coming from?

That last cup's huge!

Surely he won't be able...

What?!

It's a good trick but don't milk it.

You should see the next trick -

he ends up eating a rusk the size of a paddling pool.

It's hard to juggle work and kids.

Painful, even.

Isn't that right, Dad?

The clock's still ticking, so let's not waste a second.

It's time for the big finish.

Hans has completed eight illusions,

but remember, ten's the number he has to beat.

And he's out of the box.

He's Hans-free!

He's got women everywhere, you know. It's a curse.

Poor Hans can't even open the washing machine at home without

a glamorous lady climbing out.

CHEERING

And she's gone.

Aw, don't worry, Hans, you've plenty more where she came from.

Ten down, he's equalled his previous record,

but with a minute still to go,

how many more can he do?

Actually, where DID she come from, by the way?

11, he's beaten the record. Yes!

He's taking a lap of honour.

No, no, hang on.

He's going for one more.

This is unprecedented!

This poor woman's lost her top in all the celebrations.

Is that Hans' hand? I wonder.

Oh, no, there's Hans' hand.

That's her hand.

So whose hands are Hans' hands?

Who cares? He's done another trick.

He's Hanstoppable!

CHEERING

And yes, he's done it - a dozen illusions in five minutes.

That's right, people, get on your feet and put your hands together

for the master.

Join us next time on Now You See It for more surprises,

more astonishment and maybe, just maybe, more dazzling dairy products.
