0:00:02 > 0:00:03It is a programme about magic and illusion.

0:00:03 > 0:00:05Need more magic in your life?

0:00:05 > 0:00:08You've come to the right place as we've got the best tricks

0:00:08 > 0:00:10and stunts from around the world.

0:00:11 > 0:00:12And jumpsuits.

0:00:14 > 0:00:17Tonight, we'll see illusions with a hint of football mania...

0:00:17 > 0:00:19HE LAUGHS

0:00:19 > 0:00:22..a monkey who couldn't be any brainier. Oh! Where's he going?

0:00:22 > 0:00:25And Peter Andre driven to the point of insan-ia.

0:00:27 > 0:00:30You won't believe your eyes, your ears or...

0:00:30 > 0:00:32SHE SCREECHES ..or whatever's lurking under that bowl.

0:00:32 > 0:00:35Michael! Michael!

0:00:35 > 0:00:37Hm... I don't think she likes it.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39Welcome to Now You See It.

0:00:39 > 0:00:40I'm so confused.

0:00:52 > 0:00:54You save up enough money...

0:00:54 > 0:00:56PIG SQUEALS

0:00:56 > 0:00:58That piggy bank was to stop money slipping through his fingers.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01Here's the idea. I've got a pen here and also a coin.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03The idea is pretty simple, OK?

0:01:03 > 0:01:05Take the coin in this hand, tap it with the pen.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08It looks as though it disappeared. Cos it's not in the other hand...

0:01:08 > 0:01:12Can I just ask, why am I in your wardrobe?

0:01:12 > 0:01:14I'll get rid of the coin. I'll put the coin away.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16Actually, sorry, I meant the pen, didn't I? No. Yeah.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19No, I did mean the coin, sorry. I'll put the coin away. Yeah, OK.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22Let's do this again. I'll put the coin away in my pocket.

0:01:22 > 0:01:24We don't need it any more. What we do need is a pen.

0:01:24 > 0:01:26If I throw the pen up in the air,

0:01:26 > 0:01:28like this, it changes to the coin

0:01:28 > 0:01:30cos the pen is in my pocket.

0:01:30 > 0:01:32HE LAUGHS

0:01:32 > 0:01:34- I'm so confused. - Yeah, can I come out now?

0:01:35 > 0:01:39To the mean streets of Slough to see what Ryan Tricks is up to.

0:01:39 > 0:01:43Yes, bruv. There's one down there. Look, look, look.

0:01:43 > 0:01:46Either he is about to perform a magic trick or for some reason,

0:01:46 > 0:01:48he is going to kidnap a parking attendant.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53Let's go, let's go, let's go.

0:01:53 > 0:01:54All right, let's go.

0:01:54 > 0:01:56I finally found a parking ticket.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59What we're going to do now is I'm going to push it through the glass

0:01:59 > 0:02:01so that kids can't steal it, all right?

0:02:01 > 0:02:03Because we all know how kids like to get their kicks

0:02:03 > 0:02:05stealing parking tickets(!)

0:02:09 > 0:02:10HE GRUNTS Whoa!

0:02:10 > 0:02:12Although he has interfered with the ticket

0:02:12 > 0:02:15and as we can see, that's a finable offence.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17Oh, dear, what are we going to do?

0:02:17 > 0:02:21I know, let's just move on and enjoy some animal magic.

0:02:21 > 0:02:23Over to Professor Richard Wiseman.

0:02:23 > 0:02:25You are going to put it into the hand here

0:02:25 > 0:02:27and you're going to blow.

0:02:27 > 0:02:28It completely disappears.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31Where did it go? Where did it go? Hang on, rewind.

0:02:33 > 0:02:34Three factors in this trick to bear

0:02:34 > 0:02:36in mind - the magician, the grape

0:02:36 > 0:02:38and that monkey.

0:02:38 > 0:02:39We won't label the tree,

0:02:39 > 0:02:40that would be patronising,

0:02:40 > 0:02:42but keep watching the monkey.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44You're going to put it into the hand here

0:02:44 > 0:02:47- and you are going to blow... - Now, that's not magic.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49That's theft!

0:02:49 > 0:02:51- Ryan. How are you doing, Ryan? - Good.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54Andrew Mayne is also causing borderline criminal mischief

0:02:54 > 0:02:57as he plays a game of where's wallet.

0:02:57 > 0:03:00I want to test how uneasy you are when your wallet maybe isn't

0:03:00 > 0:03:02immediately near you.

0:03:02 > 0:03:03So, I'm being mugged on camera?

0:03:03 > 0:03:05That's what we do.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07- You got a wallet? I'll show you. - All right.- I won't touch it.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10- I want you to place it inside of here.- OK.- Place it inside.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13That's good. Now, first thing, hold out your hand.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15- OK? You can see exactly where it's at, right?- Mm-hm.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18Put your other hand on top. OK? Close down, close down, OK?

0:03:18 > 0:03:21You're starting to feel insecure about it cos it's hard to tell

0:03:21 > 0:03:23- inside the cup.- Yeah, yeah.- You can't see it. You can't see it.

0:03:23 > 0:03:24- Mm-hm.- A little anxiety?- Yes.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26OK, go ahead, turn it over.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30- Yup.- How does that feel?

0:03:30 > 0:03:33- Pretty bad.- Let's find your wallet, all right?

0:03:33 > 0:03:35- OK.- Take a look, third car down.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38A lost wallet is always in the last place you'd look.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40OK. Whoa!

0:03:40 > 0:03:43- In this case, under a car tyre. - All right.

0:03:43 > 0:03:45I don't know how he did that at all.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48HE LAUGHS You can easily get it back.

0:03:48 > 0:03:51All you have to do is levitate the car.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56Wondering how all these amazing tricks are done?

0:03:56 > 0:03:59Well, here's one we can show you. It's...

0:04:00 > 0:04:06Tonight, alchemy, the art of turning silver tat into gold tat.

0:04:06 > 0:04:07- A silver bracelet.- OK.

0:04:07 > 0:04:10Over to Wayne Houchin, who clearly didn't get

0:04:10 > 0:04:11the "wear jazzy clothes" memo.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14- If I were to turn this into gold... - That would be amazing.

0:04:14 > 0:04:18Check this out. In order to do this, I need some heat.

0:04:18 > 0:04:20- I've got a lighter.- You got one?

0:04:20 > 0:04:22Come close. We're going to try this with a lighter.

0:04:22 > 0:04:25Now, please don't try this with a lighter yourself.

0:04:25 > 0:04:28If your hands are cold, just put on some mittens.

0:04:28 > 0:04:29Doesn't that hurt?

0:04:29 > 0:04:31It's hurting me watching it. Ouch.

0:04:31 > 0:04:34Going to try to absorb some of the heat.

0:04:34 > 0:04:36Don't know if the heat's being absorbed,

0:04:36 > 0:04:39but the guy-liner certainly makes his eyes look smoky.

0:04:39 > 0:04:41If you turn this to gold, you hired.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Look, look, right here.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46- Right here too.- How are you doing this?- Yo!

0:04:46 > 0:04:48Oh, what's happening here?

0:04:48 > 0:04:50It's changing colour.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53Wow! It's gold! Apart from the ends.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55That's incredible.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58Sometimes because of the heat transfer, it gets a little warm.

0:05:00 > 0:05:03- Can you see it?- Whoa!

0:05:03 > 0:05:05- That is crazy.- How did he do it?

0:05:05 > 0:05:06- Look at that.- Find out later.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08- Good job.- That's crazy.

0:05:08 > 0:05:11Wham's is off duty at Club Tropicana.

0:05:11 > 0:05:13HE SCREAMS

0:05:13 > 0:05:15Come on, the drinks are free.

0:05:15 > 0:05:19Here is marksman Ghee Tell taking aim with a crossbow.

0:05:19 > 0:05:24And here is his assistant Diana, clutching her lucky biscuit tin.

0:05:24 > 0:05:26I can tell from the outfits that this is either 300 years

0:05:26 > 0:05:29in the future or 1989.

0:05:32 > 0:05:35Now, Diana is gyrating through a series of the least natural

0:05:35 > 0:05:38movements I've ever seen to retrieve a flower.

0:05:40 > 0:05:41Most of us love flowers.

0:05:41 > 0:05:44Sadly, power-dressing magicians with crossbows don't.

0:05:46 > 0:05:48Well, that's one way to do your pruning.

0:05:48 > 0:05:52Unsurprisingly, Diana is checking her life insurance policy.

0:05:55 > 0:05:56Now, invalid.

0:05:58 > 0:06:00Ghee will cut through anything with his crossbow.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03When Diana got dressed this morning, those were trousers.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10Now, Ben Hanlin is going to wind up officially the nicest man in

0:06:10 > 0:06:12the world in tonight's...

0:06:13 > 0:06:16- Well, hello.- And the nicest man in the world is...

0:06:16 > 0:06:20Father Christmas. Oh, sorry, Peter Andre.

0:06:20 > 0:06:23Peter is here to do a photo shoot for a wedding cake maker,

0:06:23 > 0:06:26but he doesn't realise it's all a big set up.

0:06:26 > 0:06:27In walk some actors.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30- Hello.- Oh, my God. - Oh, are you getting married?

0:06:30 > 0:06:33- Yeah, tomorrow, yeah.- Come here, I'm going to take a picture with you.

0:06:33 > 0:06:35He's got no idea...

0:06:35 > 0:06:38about anything, to be honest, but he seems happy enough.

0:06:38 > 0:06:41- Beautiful.- And the stunt is on. - It's exactly how...

0:06:41 > 0:06:43Are you getting emotional?

0:06:43 > 0:06:44- Sorry.- Calm down.

0:06:44 > 0:06:47- It's really nice.- It's perfect.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49Absolutely perfect.

0:06:49 > 0:06:50Right, so I'll box it up for you,

0:06:50 > 0:06:53so it can take a few minutes and then we'll go and put in the car.

0:06:53 > 0:06:56- All right, all right. We'll be back in a minute.- OK, all right.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58Is it all right if I just put my bag here?

0:06:58 > 0:06:59Oh, yeah, sorry. Leave it there.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01We'll be back in a minute.

0:07:01 > 0:07:03Great, see you in a bit. Can I get a few photos next to some of these?

0:07:03 > 0:07:06- Is that all right?- Yeah, mate, honestly whatever you want.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09Well, if you stand there and look at that one there.

0:07:09 > 0:07:11- Whatever you want.- Close-up.

0:07:11 > 0:07:12We don't have to go close up.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14- I'm 41, I'm not 20... - Shall I go back a bit?

0:07:14 > 0:07:16Oh, no.

0:07:19 > 0:07:21- Are you serious? - HE GASPS

0:07:21 > 0:07:23That is the worst thing that could have happened.

0:07:23 > 0:07:26Apart from a burst of Mysterious Girl, of course.

0:07:26 > 0:07:27First, let's get this out of the way,

0:07:27 > 0:07:30so she doesn't see it cos she is going to freak.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32It's covered in hair, carpet fibre.

0:07:32 > 0:07:34I'd still eat it, can I just say?

0:07:34 > 0:07:37- It is good.- I would love some, but you can't eat her cake!

0:07:37 > 0:07:40- Well, she can't eat it now. Hold on, is that fixable?- No.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42- What about that? Is that fixable? - No.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44- Are you sure?- It certainly isn't.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46Oh, mate, I've screwed up, man.

0:07:46 > 0:07:49Don't worry. Hey, listen, she's a sweet girl,

0:07:49 > 0:07:51she's going to understand. Well...

0:07:51 > 0:07:54- let's hope she understands. - I'll tell you what.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56Here, sit down.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59- You're not going to make me make a cake, are you?- Well, look, right.

0:07:59 > 0:08:02What I'm thinking is that looks like her cake, doesn't it?

0:08:02 > 0:08:05- It looks nothing like her cake. - No, it's four tier, it's white...

0:08:05 > 0:08:07It's four tier, but it's nothing like it. You can't do that.

0:08:07 > 0:08:10- It looks nothing like the cake. - So what I'm thinking is that...

0:08:10 > 0:08:12That could be her cake.

0:08:12 > 0:08:13I mean, just look at it.

0:08:13 > 0:08:15That is her cake, I reckon.

0:08:15 > 0:08:17I mean, I think that kind of works as a cake.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19I think that really works.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21I think that is her cake.

0:08:21 > 0:08:22Whoa!

0:08:22 > 0:08:24Well, what do you think of that, Peter?

0:08:35 > 0:08:39You can almost hear the penny trying to drop.

0:08:42 > 0:08:45Then, eventually...

0:08:47 > 0:08:50Why do I think you look familiar all of a sudden?

0:08:50 > 0:08:52I don't really own a cake shop.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54- My name is Ben Hanlin.- You are kidding me.- I'm a magician.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56And you've just been tricked.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59God, I was petrified for that girl. Ah! Are you kidding me?

0:08:59 > 0:09:02- Oh, Peter, you are too lovely. - What?!

0:09:02 > 0:09:04You are kidding... Listen, forget all that.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06How the hell did you do that?

0:09:06 > 0:09:07It's magic, innit?

0:09:10 > 0:09:12Look at any card you like in the deck. And remember it. Ready?

0:09:15 > 0:09:17It was either one or two. Either went for the front one,

0:09:17 > 0:09:18the five of spades.

0:09:18 > 0:09:20If not, POW!

0:09:20 > 0:09:24Wow! Thanks, Miss Direction. First name, Northerly.

0:09:25 > 0:09:28Now for some underwater magic from Jasz Vegas.

0:09:28 > 0:09:29So shall we say...

0:09:32 > 0:09:33No, let's not.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36Oh, look, her hair has gone blue.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39Is that the chlorine or has somebody had an accident in the pool?

0:09:39 > 0:09:42Harry Potter and Ron Weasley, looking on there.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44Ah, the rings.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47One of them will have her locker key on the end, I imagine.

0:09:53 > 0:09:56Extraordinary stuff, this interlocking ring business, Jasz,

0:09:56 > 0:09:58but unless you pick up the rubber brick,

0:09:58 > 0:10:00you won't get your bronze swimming badge.

0:10:02 > 0:10:04Sorry, Hermione who?

0:10:05 > 0:10:08And now a couple of tricks to prove that old adage that when it

0:10:08 > 0:10:09comes to magic...

0:10:12 > 0:10:14IN RUSSIAN ACCENT: "Now take my camera phone,"

0:10:14 > 0:10:16says Ilya Larionov to his mate,

0:10:16 > 0:10:18as he'll need both his hands to hold his sheet.

0:10:18 > 0:10:22Look, there's the sheet. Amazingly clean. That's what I like to see.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25Oh, and he's already drawn a crowd...

0:10:25 > 0:10:27That man there.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38A bit of banter with the crowd - well - man.

0:10:41 > 0:10:45Oh, where's Ilya and where is his crowd?

0:10:45 > 0:10:48Look, it's the cameraman. So, who's holding the camera?

0:10:51 > 0:10:53And now...Ilya is back.

0:10:53 > 0:10:57Oh, this is all too complicated for my poor brain.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00Some more sheet-based magic now in the even more idyllic

0:11:00 > 0:11:03location of a light industrial estate.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05You'd have thought they'd have picked a less windy day.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08Still, that sheet will dry pretty quickly.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10Whoa! It's Dad.

0:11:11 > 0:11:13Let's take a look at some more dads in magic.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15Perhaps now it's time to say...

0:11:18 > 0:11:19No, still not.

0:11:21 > 0:11:24Chevy Chase, looking trim for his age there.

0:11:24 > 0:11:26Just an ordinary piece of rope from the shed.

0:11:26 > 0:11:28Dad always said it would come in useful.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31And look, it's really not useful at all!

0:11:38 > 0:11:40His long-suffering wife is operating the camera,

0:11:40 > 0:11:43hoping he'll eventually repair the sash window.

0:11:45 > 0:11:49That's not enough dad for you? Well, here's some more.

0:11:49 > 0:11:50It's time for bed and she is not having it.

0:11:50 > 0:11:52There's only one way to sort this.

0:11:53 > 0:11:56You can keep your Super Nanny. That is some childcare.

0:11:58 > 0:12:02Coming up, this man risks everything by opening two

0:12:02 > 0:12:03umbrellas indoors.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05SHE BELLOWS, SHRIEKS AND LAUGHS We get a chance to hear

0:12:05 > 0:12:08all these noises. Trust me, you'd be doing exactly the same

0:12:08 > 0:12:09in her position.

0:12:09 > 0:12:12- SHE GASPS - Michael! Michael!

0:12:12 > 0:12:15And our big finish returns to the golden age of Saturday night

0:12:15 > 0:12:19telly with a topless bald man, squatting in a cardboard box.

0:12:19 > 0:12:20You'd be daft to miss it.

0:12:22 > 0:12:25But first, the answer you've been desperate to discover for all

0:12:25 > 0:12:27of eight and a half minutes.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32You may remember that Wayne Houchin took this rather drab-looking

0:12:32 > 0:12:36silver chain and turned it into a drab-looking gold chain,

0:12:36 > 0:12:39using what looked like residual heat from the palm of his hand.

0:12:39 > 0:12:42This gentleman is dumbfounded. He thinks it's crazy.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44This is crazy.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46But how exactly did they do that?

0:12:47 > 0:12:48Crazy.

0:12:48 > 0:12:52I wish that I had the power to take silver and really turn it into gold.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54But unfortunately, I can't do that.

0:12:54 > 0:12:55Our bracelet is actually copper

0:12:55 > 0:12:58and we've coated it with zinc, so it looks silver.

0:12:58 > 0:13:00And with that in play, we let science do the rest.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03You see, it's all down to some GCSE science.

0:13:03 > 0:13:04Apply enough heat

0:13:04 > 0:13:06to some zinc-coated copper

0:13:06 > 0:13:08and the two metals combine to make...

0:13:08 > 0:13:10brass.

0:13:10 > 0:13:12Shiny and gold like...gold.

0:13:14 > 0:13:17But how did Wayne's magic hot hand cause this reaction?

0:13:17 > 0:13:21Well, it didn't. The trick here is inside the oil drum.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24There's a hot plate set to 400 degrees.

0:13:24 > 0:13:26Perfect conditions to make a cheese toasty. Ha!

0:13:26 > 0:13:28And to trigger a chemical reaction.

0:13:28 > 0:13:32Place the chain on the oil drum and bingo.

0:13:32 > 0:13:33Absolutely crazy.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35That is still crazy to see.

0:13:35 > 0:13:36It's crazy.

0:13:36 > 0:13:39Now who is up for a bit of magic with a football?

0:13:39 > 0:13:41I know I am.

0:13:41 > 0:13:44And it seems Magical Bones has found just the guys to do one with.

0:13:44 > 0:13:48I want you guys to think of a sport, OK? Get one in your mind.

0:13:48 > 0:13:52You got one in your mind? Don't say it to me. I'm going to use this, OK.

0:13:52 > 0:13:54I've just got a...

0:13:54 > 0:13:55bag.

0:13:58 > 0:13:59Have you got a sport in your mind?

0:13:59 > 0:14:01- ALL:- Yes.- What sport were you thinking of?

0:14:01 > 0:14:04- Bowling.- Bowling?- Yeah.

0:14:04 > 0:14:06Um...

0:14:07 > 0:14:09Let's try.

0:14:12 > 0:14:16Amazing, but not the trick I was after with an actual football.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18I know who will do one for me. Here's...

0:14:19 > 0:14:21I didn't want to do a trick with an

0:14:21 > 0:14:23- actual football, that'd be too obvious.- Rude.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26Instead, a football sticker album from the shop.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28Not filled up yet cos we just bought it, OK?

0:14:28 > 0:14:29Can you hold out your hand for me?

0:14:30 > 0:14:32Put your hand on top, just like that.

0:14:32 > 0:14:34We'll come back to that in a second.

0:14:34 > 0:14:37I've not stuck the stickers in yet. I've got them right here.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40You've seen that they are completely legit. Now, Ben, say stop.

0:14:40 > 0:14:43- Stop.- There, cool. Take the sticker. Have a look at it.

0:14:43 > 0:14:48Oh, that will be former Scotland and Kilmarnock player Barry Nicholson.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50And can you just push it somewhere in the middle?

0:14:50 > 0:14:52Yeah, Barry Nicholson always goes midfield.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55Can you hold out both of your hands for me?

0:14:55 > 0:14:59Perfect. OK. Now we need to start sticking these in.

0:14:59 > 0:15:01If we do this one at a time, we're going to be here all day.

0:15:01 > 0:15:06So, I'm going to take the book. So, it is...

0:15:06 > 0:15:09- empty, yeah?- Empty.- Ben, what we are going to do is just, watch.

0:15:09 > 0:15:12If I do it like this and just start filling the sticker book up.

0:15:12 > 0:15:16- OK.- Just like that.- OK. - Hey, wow!

0:15:16 > 0:15:20Which means in your hands, the backs have gone completely blank.

0:15:20 > 0:15:21Check them out.

0:15:22 > 0:15:24- LAUGHS:- Agreed.

0:15:25 > 0:15:31- They're all gone.- That is the sticker book completely filled up.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33Oh, wait, I've missed one.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36- That's Barry Nicholson. - Barry Nicholson.

0:15:36 > 0:15:37Oh, it's Barry Nicholson.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39Just check that again to make sure they are...

0:15:39 > 0:15:42Oh, wait, is this the player you picked?

0:15:42 > 0:15:44- Definitely was. - Show it to the camera.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46- Barry Nicholson. - Put the sticker in your pocket.

0:15:46 > 0:15:50- That's yours to keep.- Alongside his 27 other Barry Nicholson spares.

0:15:50 > 0:15:51Bring it up just like this.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53Bring it up in front of your face.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55- Concentrate on Barry Nicholson.- OK.

0:15:55 > 0:15:58Say the name Barry Nicholson out loud.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00Keep saying it until you hear me say the word stop.

0:16:00 > 0:16:04- OK?- OK. Barry Nicholson, Barry Nicholson, Barry Nicholson...

0:16:04 > 0:16:07This reminds me of that horror film, but with Barry Nicholson.

0:16:07 > 0:16:09- Barry Nicholson, Barry Nicholson. - Stop.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11HE LAUGHS

0:16:11 > 0:16:13Oh, my word! It's the real Barry Nicholson.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15The best football magic trick

0:16:15 > 0:16:18since Wayne Rooney's hair reappeared.

0:16:18 > 0:16:20Thanks, Damien, and thanks, Barry Nicholson.

0:16:22 > 0:16:24Now, please can I have a trick with a football?

0:16:25 > 0:16:27Oh, thank you.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31My word, Ghee Tell now has five crossbows.

0:16:31 > 0:16:32DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS

0:16:32 > 0:16:36Happily the music suggests nothing bad is going to happen.

0:16:36 > 0:16:40DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES

0:16:49 > 0:16:51Ghee! Diana was standing behind that.

0:16:51 > 0:16:53Next time give her a shout.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57Absolutely incredible and the fee from this appearance will keep

0:16:57 > 0:17:00them both in hairspray for at least one more week.

0:17:02 > 0:17:05One is easily done, two is too few, but three is the magic number.

0:17:05 > 0:17:08Especially when it comes to umbrellas.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12This man has no umbrella. Look how wet it's been.

0:17:13 > 0:17:15You'd have thought his bowler hat would have sorted him,

0:17:15 > 0:17:18but that's not the point. It's not magic.

0:17:19 > 0:17:21Still, making good use of this newspaper.

0:17:22 > 0:17:23Oh, look at that!

0:17:25 > 0:17:28Secondly, if Michael McIntyre did magic.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32In fact, it's Fukai and his beautiful wife, Kimika.

0:17:33 > 0:17:36Where has he been hiding that many umbrellas, though?

0:17:36 > 0:17:40You wouldn't want one opening unexpectedly in your trousers.

0:17:42 > 0:17:45Finally, the best street theatre production of Mary Poppins

0:17:45 > 0:17:48you've ever seen, courtesy of Farid from Germany.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54Look, he's off the ground...a bit.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01Unfortunately, if the wind picks up,

0:18:01 > 0:18:02they'll find him somewhere

0:18:02 > 0:18:03near Frankfurt.

0:18:04 > 0:18:06The kids look amazed.

0:18:06 > 0:18:10But here's the thing, he didn't need her brolly after all.

0:18:10 > 0:18:11Yes, throw it away.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16And down he comes.

0:18:20 > 0:18:21Oh, dear.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24Looks like they need more than a spoonful of sugar right now.

0:18:24 > 0:18:25Well done, Farid,

0:18:25 > 0:18:28but if you want to end your trick with more pizzazz...

0:18:32 > 0:18:33..that's how you do it.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41Here we go. It's the amazing Michael Carbonaro,

0:18:41 > 0:18:44pranking an assistant in a university science research centre.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46We're going to get this all cleaned up for tonight

0:18:46 > 0:18:49- because I have a class coming in. - What are we looking at?

0:18:49 > 0:18:53You know, there was like a meteor crash in the Mojave Desert

0:18:53 > 0:18:56and they picked up pieces from around the crater.

0:18:56 > 0:18:59- The crater.- Mm-hm. And these were around it, so the dust.- Oh!

0:18:59 > 0:19:02- So, they collected some of the dust. - Wait, you should put gloves on.- Oh.

0:19:02 > 0:19:05- Yeah.- Oh, so these just happen to be around it when the meteor...?

0:19:05 > 0:19:08- Exactly right. Look at this thing. - Eww! Don't know what...

0:19:08 > 0:19:11- What can we call...? Is that? - Space pod or space seed?

0:19:11 > 0:19:13Came from outer space?

0:19:13 > 0:19:16You have gloves on, you can kind of feel it. It has a little bit of a...

0:19:16 > 0:19:17- A little roughness to it.- Yeah.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19That's pretty interesting.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22SHE SCREAMS

0:19:22 > 0:19:25That is the worst.

0:19:25 > 0:19:26Oh!

0:19:27 > 0:19:30- SHE CHUCKLES - I'm sorry, I'm not laughing,

0:19:30 > 0:19:31but I'm laughing.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36Wow! Look at that.

0:19:37 > 0:19:41That was in the water for, like, a second and it just swelled up.

0:19:41 > 0:19:44It's still...it's still solid.

0:19:44 > 0:19:46Uh-oh. Oh, it has like a...

0:19:46 > 0:19:48What is in there? I see something.

0:19:48 > 0:19:51Is it Barry Nicholson?

0:19:51 > 0:19:52Look at that!

0:19:52 > 0:19:56- SHE GASPS - Whoa!

0:19:56 > 0:19:57It is totally moving.

0:19:57 > 0:20:00It's a creature from outer space and it's still alive!

0:20:00 > 0:20:04Obviously, it's just a crab, but it's pretty convincingly alien.

0:20:04 > 0:20:05- SHRIEKS:- There's two!

0:20:05 > 0:20:07Yikes, yikes, yikes! Ah!

0:20:07 > 0:20:11I love the fact that she's terrified, but also filming it.

0:20:11 > 0:20:13- Bleugh! - SHE SCREAMS

0:20:13 > 0:20:16IN AMERICAN ACCENT: We're being invaded by alien crabs, LOL.

0:20:16 > 0:20:18Oh, my gosh, it's totally, like, moving.

0:20:19 > 0:20:23What if they're, like, multiplying into more in there?

0:20:23 > 0:20:25- SHE CHUCKLES - I just don't want to...

0:20:25 > 0:20:28Lift the bowl up and I'll scoop them into here.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31- SHE SHRIEKS - Lift, lift, lift.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34- SHE GASPS - What the heck?

0:20:34 > 0:20:36- MEOWING - What the hell is going on?

0:20:36 > 0:20:39I have no idea. That... Why are there...? That's like...

0:20:39 > 0:20:41They were just crabs, now they're cats.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44It, like, assimilated... Look at the book!

0:20:44 > 0:20:46SHE GASPS

0:20:46 > 0:20:49Michael! Michael!

0:20:49 > 0:20:51SHE SIGHS

0:20:51 > 0:20:52The book!

0:20:52 > 0:20:55They were crabs, now they are cats.

0:20:56 > 0:20:59- MEOWING - They were crabs!- Yes.

0:20:59 > 0:21:01No, nuh-uh.

0:21:01 > 0:21:04That's what can happen with a meteor crash like that.

0:21:04 > 0:21:06If something comes out of the meteor that's alive

0:21:06 > 0:21:09and it touches something else, it can assimilate.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12It's called the Carbonaro effect.

0:21:12 > 0:21:13I'm a magician.

0:21:13 > 0:21:16SHE LAUGHS

0:21:16 > 0:21:18I think she's quite relieved.

0:21:23 > 0:21:26Ah, must be recycling day.

0:21:26 > 0:21:27Oh, no. It's ping-pong.

0:21:27 > 0:21:28Or maybe bin-pong.

0:21:30 > 0:21:33Well caught. You do realise humans are non-recyclable?

0:21:33 > 0:21:36Well, what I've got is my beach towel,

0:21:36 > 0:21:38so why not try something with this?

0:21:38 > 0:21:40Don't be fooled by the beach towel.

0:21:40 > 0:21:44Wolfgang Riebe isn't German, he's from South Africa.

0:21:44 > 0:21:45Watch this.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48OK, come place her onto the towel here.

0:21:48 > 0:21:49There we go.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52Take her feet there, Michael. And hold her neck stiff.

0:21:52 > 0:21:56That's it, good. Now, I'm just go let go of the towel.

0:21:56 > 0:21:57Just relax.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03Well, it is a programme about magic and illusion.

0:22:03 > 0:22:06Is this magic or is it an illusion?

0:22:06 > 0:22:09Well, I hope it's one of them, Wolfgang.

0:22:09 > 0:22:11Ross is going to feel very tempted to...

0:22:11 > 0:22:14Hey, a glamorous lady with heavy gardening equipment.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16It's Angela Funovits.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18We're going to have to use a little...

0:22:18 > 0:22:20- AUDIENCE CHEERS - ..protection.

0:22:22 > 0:22:23ROSS MUMBLES

0:22:23 > 0:22:26Don't worry, Ross, you're going to be just fine.

0:22:26 > 0:22:28Dayna, we have, behind us, four boxes.

0:22:28 > 0:22:31I want you to take Ross behind the curtain

0:22:31 > 0:22:33and place him into one of the boxes.

0:22:33 > 0:22:35Each one of those boxes has a camera inside.

0:22:35 > 0:22:37Our viewers at home will be able to see

0:22:37 > 0:22:40a live feed of Ross in his box at all times.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42- Dayna, is he in the box?- Yes.

0:22:42 > 0:22:45Perfect. All right, when you are all finished,

0:22:45 > 0:22:47I just want you to come around here to my right.

0:22:47 > 0:22:52Shandi, we have boxes one through four.

0:22:52 > 0:22:53I will be sawing through

0:22:53 > 0:22:54- one of them. - SHE CHUCKLES

0:22:54 > 0:22:57- One and three.- One and three.

0:22:57 > 0:22:58And if Ross is in one, I'm sorry.

0:23:00 > 0:23:02This isn't just a trick,

0:23:02 > 0:23:04it's a handy way to jump the toilet queue at Glastonbury.

0:23:04 > 0:23:08SAWING NOISE

0:23:12 > 0:23:15Looks like Ross is safe...so far.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18Not your regular Alan Titchmarsh Show audience, is it?

0:23:18 > 0:23:22Point to someone in the audience I don't know.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24Pretty, little boy. Right here, third row.

0:23:24 > 0:23:26Pretty boy, number three or number four?

0:23:26 > 0:23:28- Which one should I saw through? - Number three.

0:23:30 > 0:23:34Ross, incidentally, is Angela's 58th assistant this year.

0:23:34 > 0:23:36Oh, I can't watch.

0:23:36 > 0:23:38SAWING NOISE

0:23:42 > 0:23:44Phew, still OK, I think.

0:23:44 > 0:23:46All right. Dayna, look at me.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48But now we are left with just two boxes.

0:23:48 > 0:23:50I hope her intuition is correct.

0:23:53 > 0:23:57SAWING NOISE

0:24:06 > 0:24:08Let's see, was he in box two?

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Get out, Ross.

0:24:10 > 0:24:14Oh, yes. Thank heavens. 59th time lucky, Angela.

0:24:16 > 0:24:19Right, some very male magic now as Yif and Hansen Chien indulge

0:24:19 > 0:24:20in a bit of...

0:24:23 > 0:24:24You'll be pleased to know

0:24:24 > 0:24:26there's no chainsaw action here.

0:24:26 > 0:24:27Unless someone goes crazy

0:24:27 > 0:24:29with an electric bread knife.

0:24:35 > 0:24:38Mm, it's so delicious, they're not quite eating it.

0:25:00 > 0:25:04Oh, looks like a bad case of gluten intolerance.

0:25:04 > 0:25:06Let's leave them to it.

0:25:06 > 0:25:07And travel to Holland.

0:25:07 > 0:25:09IN DUTCH ACCENT: Well, I think it's Holland,

0:25:09 > 0:25:11something somewhere is giving it away.

0:25:11 > 0:25:14Ah, look, two Dutch ladies. Double Dutch.

0:25:17 > 0:25:18Oh, those are big holes.

0:25:18 > 0:25:20Anyone seen a maniac with a crossbow?

0:25:20 > 0:25:23Importantly, the girls check that this is just an ordinary

0:25:23 > 0:25:24slice of cheese.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26No trap doors or anything.

0:25:26 > 0:25:29But why? Well, watch this.

0:25:35 > 0:25:39Oh, the holes are vanishing in that Dutch cheese.

0:25:39 > 0:25:41Or as the Dutch call it, cheese.

0:25:49 > 0:25:51HE SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE

0:25:54 > 0:25:58As cheese Magic goes, that was "e-mmental". Emmental.

0:25:58 > 0:25:59THEY GIGGLE

0:26:02 > 0:26:04It's time now for our big finish.

0:26:04 > 0:26:08Back to 1987 with the legendary Hans Moretti and his wife, Helga.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12Oh, that's a lovely gold necklace Hans is wearing.

0:26:12 > 0:26:14It was silver, but he met a man with an oil drum

0:26:14 > 0:26:16on the way to the studio.

0:26:21 > 0:26:24Some middle-aged couples spend their time gardening together

0:26:24 > 0:26:27or looking at National Trust properties.

0:26:27 > 0:26:28Others are Hans and Helga.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35Clearly, someone's just placed an online order for Hans,

0:26:35 > 0:26:37so into the box he goes.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40It's more fun than you think in those distribution warehouses,

0:26:40 > 0:26:41isn't it?

0:26:54 > 0:26:58And now a hipster and the chairman of the local Rotary Club

0:26:58 > 0:27:01are invited out of the audience to stick swords into the box.

0:27:01 > 0:27:04Ow! How can Hans survive that?

0:27:06 > 0:27:10Phew... It's Hans' hand, handily proving he's still at hand.

0:27:25 > 0:27:27Helga has to be careful taking out those swords.

0:27:27 > 0:27:29One of them obviously ripped down

0:27:29 > 0:27:31the front of that outfit in rehearsal.

0:27:45 > 0:27:48And now the swords have been removed and Hans will

0:27:48 > 0:27:50no doubt emerge looking exactly as he did before.
