From the depths of the earth... to the crests of the mountains...

0:00:020:00:04

My legs have gone weird.

0:00:040:00:06

..these crusading grooms must rise to the challenge.

0:00:060:00:10

£12,000...

0:00:110:00:12

..and just three weeks...

0:00:140:00:15

I love that girl! I love her!

0:00:150:00:18

..to plan a wedding worthy of their betrothed.

0:00:180:00:20

Oh, my God. What's he done?!

0:00:200:00:22

He just took my dress!

0:00:220:00:24

These fair maidens are bound by contract to be legally wedded...

0:00:240:00:28

I hate it.

0:00:280:00:29

..but have no say in their big day.

0:00:290:00:31

Is it all just going to be last-minute and just rubbish?

0:00:310:00:34

Where'd he get green from?!

0:00:340:00:37

Can these hapless heroes marshal their armies...

0:00:370:00:40

Just leave me to drown!

0:00:420:00:44

..vanquish dragons...

0:00:440:00:46

-Oh!

-Do as your future mother-in-law tells you!

0:00:460:00:49

..and conquer all before them?

0:00:490:00:51

Get out of my pub!

0:00:510:00:53

Or will they be...

0:00:530:00:55

..defeated?

0:00:560:00:58

I'm not doing it.

0:00:580:00:59

Tonight, professional magician Jack...

0:01:010:01:03

..Not any more.

0:01:030:01:06

..wants a show-stopping wedding with his magic centre stage.

0:01:060:01:09

We're having a theatre, fact. It's got to be done.

0:01:090:01:12

While all his bride Sarah wants is one day without any tricks.

0:01:120:01:16

I just want us to be the centre of attention,

0:01:160:01:19

not magic be the centre of attention.

0:01:190:01:21

Can Jack keep control of his conjuring?

0:01:210:01:23

Paul Daniels and Debbie McGee.

0:01:230:01:25

Without one, you wouldn't have the other.

0:01:250:01:27

Will he sweep his bride off her feet?

0:01:270:01:29

Not only is it my first illusion, I'm floating my wife.

0:01:290:01:33

Brilliant.

0:01:330:01:34

Could it be magic, or will it be tragic?

0:01:340:01:38

-Sarah, are you all right, darling?

-WEEPING

0:01:380:01:40

Oh, for goodness' sake.

0:01:400:01:41

What is he thinking of?

0:01:410:01:43

21-year-old Jack from Burton-upon-Trent

0:01:550:01:58

first laid eyes on his 20-year-old bride-to-be Sarah four years ago

0:01:580:02:02

in a bar on board a cruise.

0:02:020:02:04

Words cannot describe the butterflies that a man gets

0:02:040:02:08

when you know something is right.

0:02:080:02:10

You just get this wave of... wow, she is just amazing.

0:02:100:02:16

We was both suited and booted. It was in one of the cabaret lounges.

0:02:190:02:22

Every time we picked up our drink, it was just like an awkward moment

0:02:220:02:25

and then looking away again.

0:02:250:02:28

It was nice, but we just didn't know what to say.

0:02:280:02:31

And then, all of a sudden,

0:02:310:02:32

a conga line went past and Jack went, "Do you like the show?"

0:02:320:02:35

Cruise over, they decided to conga for longer

0:02:370:02:41

and fell completely in love.

0:02:410:02:42

Can I be honest? I do love absolutely everything about her.

0:02:420:02:47

I honestly don't think there's one thing

0:02:470:02:50

I could turn around and say, "That's something I don't like."

0:02:500:02:53

I just love how fun and friendly and happy he is

0:02:530:02:57

because, before I met him, I was quite a reserved person.

0:02:570:03:01

Now, we don't really have a dull moment.

0:03:010:03:04

But there is another love in Jack's life. His day job.

0:03:040:03:08

Me and magic are like this. I'm a magician for the rest of my life.

0:03:080:03:13

Without the magic, there would definitely be no Jack.

0:03:130:03:16

Not only does he do magic when he is outside at events,

0:03:160:03:19

he also brings it back home so we could be sat on the sofa

0:03:190:03:22

and he could be learning new magic tricks or asking me,

0:03:220:03:25

"Does this look all right?

0:03:250:03:26

"What do you think of this trick? What's your reaction?"

0:03:260:03:29

You're born to be a dancer or a singer or an actor.

0:03:310:03:34

I was born to be a magician.

0:03:340:03:36

In fact, it's tricks and illusions 24/7 for these love birds.

0:03:360:03:39

And it's in the bedroom that the magic really happens. No, really.

0:03:390:03:44

Babe, did you see how high I got that one there?

0:03:440:03:46

Sometimes when he's learning a new trick,

0:03:460:03:48

he'll just keep practising it over and over and over again.

0:03:480:03:51

It's really repetitive and really quite frustrating sometimes.

0:03:510:03:54

But while Sarah sometimes wishes her showman would put his wand away,

0:03:540:03:58

Jack just can't resist an opportunity to whip it out.

0:03:580:04:02

How are you, dude? Good to see you. Are you well?

0:04:020:04:05

Sometimes it feels like magic's a bit in front of me

0:04:050:04:09

and I'm a bit on the back burner a bit.

0:04:090:04:11

-I've got a new one, do you want to see it?

-Go on, mate.

0:04:110:04:14

Shall I show him the trick?

0:04:140:04:16

Jack has been performing close-up hand magic professionally

0:04:160:04:20

since he was 15

0:04:200:04:21

and has ambitions to take it all the way to the top.

0:04:210:04:24

My buzz is getting either a round of applause

0:04:240:04:26

or seeing people's faces and those reactions.

0:04:260:04:29

That is what gets my adrenaline going.

0:04:290:04:31

For some people, it might be going on a rollercoaster

0:04:310:04:34

or going on a ride. For me,

0:04:340:04:35

it's simply standing in front of an audience and doing what I do best.

0:04:350:04:39

-The two.

-Not any more.

0:04:400:04:42

That, for me, is the reason I am a magician.

0:04:420:04:46

But there is one trick he hasn't mastered yet.

0:04:490:04:53

Moving out of Mum and Dad's.

0:04:530:04:55

I think I'm a lot more mature than he is.

0:04:550:04:57

Sometimes he can act a little bit immature.

0:04:570:04:59

Like, I've gone to university,

0:04:590:05:01

I've become a lot more independent from my parents.

0:05:010:05:04

I pay my bills, do my own cleaning and washing, all that kind of thing.

0:05:040:05:08

When I come here, he gets his mum and dad to do everything.

0:05:080:05:11

Lovely. Thank you.

0:05:110:05:13

Being taken care of by Mum

0:05:130:05:15

means Jack can really focus all his energy on his magic.

0:05:150:05:19

It does make my life a slight bit easier

0:05:190:05:21

because it just means I get to do magic all day,

0:05:210:05:24

come home and things have pretty much been dealt with.

0:05:240:05:27

I do say it at all the time

0:05:270:05:29

that I wear the trousers and, "You can't organise anything.

0:05:290:05:33

"If your head wasn't screwed on, you'd lose it," and all this.

0:05:330:05:37

It is his time to shine and say,

0:05:370:05:40

"Go on, then, organise it and prove me wrong."

0:05:400:05:43

Despite his devotion to his craft,

0:05:450:05:47

Sarah knows Jack is the magic man for her.

0:05:470:05:50

I really want to marry him because I just know he is the right person.

0:05:500:05:53

He's truly the match to me.

0:05:530:05:55

We've got so much in common, we just clicked so well.

0:05:550:05:59

We rarely have arguments. We're just made for each other.

0:05:590:06:03

I just think getting married to him would be the icing on the cake.

0:06:030:06:07

Getting married is the one thing that is going to click in our life,

0:06:070:06:11

that says, "Right, we are together, end of."

0:06:110:06:15

Sarah may sometimes feel like the magician's assistant to Jack,

0:06:150:06:18

but for her wedding, she would like to be the centre of attention.

0:06:180:06:22

I'm a very traditional person.

0:06:220:06:24

I've always wanted to be the princess on my wedding day.

0:06:240:06:27

I want to be the centre of attention for once.

0:06:270:06:30

I hope that he thinks, "Well I'm always the centre of attention,

0:06:300:06:33

"so let's let Sarah be in the limelight for once."

0:06:330:06:35

And there is definitely one thing she doesn't want on her big day.

0:06:380:06:42

If, on the wedding day,

0:06:420:06:43

he pulled out a pack of cards or did a magic trick,

0:06:430:06:46

or did something magic-related, I think I would be feeling like,

0:06:460:06:50

"Back to square one, this is just like any other day,

0:06:500:06:54

"this is like work, not a special day."

0:06:540:06:57

But Jack's got far more plans than pulling out a pack of cards.

0:06:570:07:01

In the show, in the evening.

0:07:010:07:03

Sarah is absolutely going to be top of the bill,

0:07:030:07:05

as they would call it in showbiz.

0:07:050:07:07

She is going to be the top,

0:07:070:07:08

she is going to be the one that everyone is waiting to see.

0:07:080:07:11

They will see all the acts, and Sarah is the headline.

0:07:110:07:14

Sounds more like the Royal variety Performance than a wedding.

0:07:140:07:18

But Jack is serious about taking his relationship to the next level -

0:07:180:07:23

his relationship with magic that is -

0:07:230:07:25

all on the one day that Sarah wants Jack's tricks

0:07:250:07:29

kept firmly in their box.

0:07:290:07:31

I want to put on one of the biggest shows that I have ever put on.

0:07:310:07:35

We are going to make it very theatrical, very cabaret style,

0:07:350:07:39

and, of course, during the show, I want to do a part to Sarah,

0:07:390:07:43

and do a piece of magic that she's never, ever seen before.

0:07:430:07:47

If he could just put that to one side for a day,

0:07:470:07:50

and we could just enjoy it without all the magic element,

0:07:500:07:54

I'd really appreciate it.

0:07:540:07:56

She knew from the moment that we met I'm a performer.

0:07:560:07:59

And if that means being a performer on your wedding day, so be it.

0:07:590:08:02

It's time for Jack and Sarah to say goodbye.

0:08:070:08:11

How are you feeling?

0:08:110:08:13

I can't believe it's going to be three weeks till I see you again.

0:08:130:08:16

The next time they see each other will be on their wedding day.

0:08:160:08:20

Are you ready?

0:08:200:08:22

CRYING

0:08:220:08:23

-You all right?

-Yeah.

0:08:260:08:28

Sarah's heading back to her parents' house 50 miles away in Telford.

0:08:280:08:32

-Have you got a picture?

-Yeah.

-Everything you need?

0:08:340:08:36

-Spend wisely.

-And get the dress right or else?

-Yes. Or else.

0:08:360:08:41

And I'll see you on our wedding day.

0:08:410:08:44

I love you.

0:08:440:08:46

See you, baby, I love you.

0:08:460:08:48

That goodbye was quite tough.

0:08:590:09:00

I didn't think it was going to be easy,

0:09:000:09:03

but that really was hard to say goodbye.

0:09:030:09:07

The show is on. And this is it.

0:09:100:09:12

It's like the curtains are about to open

0:09:120:09:15

and I'm about to just go, phew, spotlight on, you're on.

0:09:150:09:20

With no idea Jack is hoping to turn her wedding day

0:09:200:09:24

into his biggest magic show yet, Sarah arrives back home,

0:09:240:09:27

where she is greeted by her glamorous assistants -

0:09:270:09:30

Mum and two of her bridesmaids.

0:09:300:09:32

I cried and cried and cried while we were packing.

0:09:340:09:37

-Stress-free for you. You're the lucky one, you are.

-Stress-free?

0:09:370:09:41

You can relax for three weeks.

0:09:410:09:44

He's quite romantic,

0:09:440:09:45

so he should pull it out the bag, not a bunny rabbit, but...

0:09:450:09:49

Don't! We're not having any magic at the wedding.

0:09:490:09:55

No magic at the wedding? At all?

0:09:550:09:56

No, I've said no, it's not a work day, it's not a normal day,

0:09:560:09:59

it's a big, special day so I don't want any magic.

0:09:590:10:01

I just want us to be the centre of attention,

0:10:010:10:03

not magic to be the centre of attention.

0:10:030:10:06

Back in Burton upon Trent,

0:10:070:10:08

magic Jack needs a new glamorous assistant

0:10:080:10:11

to help him pull off the show of a lifetime.

0:10:110:10:14

Where is a best man when you need it?

0:10:140:10:17

Ta-dah!

0:10:200:10:22

As if by magic, best man and twin brother Tom.

0:10:220:10:25

So, we're doing a show.

0:10:250:10:27

OK.

0:10:270:10:29

But not just a show, we're not going to see a show,

0:10:290:10:31

-I'm producing a show.

-You are the show.

-Yeah.

0:10:310:10:35

-This is a wedding, isn't it?

-Yeah. A bit of magic.

0:10:350:10:37

By yours truly.

0:10:390:10:40

-Now, you're performing on your own wedding day?

-Yeah.

0:10:400:10:44

You work all the time, you're always performing at weddings.

0:10:440:10:47

Yeah, I know.

0:10:470:10:49

The only thing I'm worried about

0:10:490:10:51

is that Jack is going to make it about him on the day.

0:10:510:10:54

He's very focused on his magic, work-based, performing, big theatre.

0:10:540:10:58

But he's got to remember it's Sarah's day as well.

0:10:580:11:01

This isn't the Jack show.

0:11:010:11:04

Most women in general, it's their big day,

0:11:040:11:06

it's what they dream of since they were a little girls.

0:11:060:11:08

You need to make it special.

0:11:080:11:10

So, why don't...obviously, when we do the magic piece,

0:11:100:11:13

have no-one else on the stage other than just me and Sarah?

0:11:130:11:18

I don't want his personality to overrun the day

0:11:180:11:21

and I want it to be as much about her as it is for him.

0:11:210:11:25

I want her to enjoy it and not feel like,

0:11:250:11:28

"Oh, I'm going to one of his gigs,"

0:11:280:11:29

as his helper or his assistant.

0:11:290:11:32

Looks like Sarah's dream of a traditional wedding

0:11:380:11:41

may be performing a spectacular vanishing act.

0:11:410:11:44

But first, Jack needs to work a bit of hocus-pocus to find a venue

0:11:440:11:47

fit for his spectacular magic show. I mean, wedding.

0:11:470:11:51

At the top of his list

0:11:510:11:52

is the venue he has always dreamed of performing in -

0:11:520:11:57

the 1,800 seater Birmingham Hippodrome. Yeah...!

0:11:570:12:00

Oh, my word. Look at the size of it.

0:12:000:12:04

Imagine doing a show or something up there.

0:12:040:12:07

Or maybe doing something that doesn't involve your day job, you know?

0:12:070:12:11

Like a wedding?

0:12:110:12:12

We've got a built-in aisle for her to walk down.

0:12:120:12:15

-Red carpet.

-Can you imagine that?

0:12:150:12:17

While Jack is getting increasingly excited

0:12:180:12:20

by the potential for a big performance,

0:12:200:12:23

in her hometown of Wellington, Sarah is visiting All Saints Church,

0:12:230:12:27

a place with very special connections to her family

0:12:270:12:31

and where she has always dreamed of getting married.

0:12:310:12:35

Wow. Beautiful.

0:12:350:12:37

Nice-sized aisle and everything to walk on.

0:12:370:12:40

Obviously, your grandmother and grandad got married here,

0:12:400:12:45

you auntie and uncle got married here,

0:12:450:12:46

me and your dad got married here.

0:12:460:12:48

-So really sentimental connection.

-Yeah.

0:12:480:12:50

I love the stained-glass window.

0:12:500:12:53

-It's gorgeous, isn't it? So big as well.

-It's really pretty.

0:12:530:12:56

I want something big and grand like this.

0:12:560:12:59

Big and grand? Try this.

0:12:590:13:02

I don't do things by halves, mate, do I?

0:13:020:13:05

We wanted a stage, you don't get bigger than this.

0:13:050:13:07

It's just you all over.

0:13:070:13:09

Sarah wants a magical day, but without the magic tricks.

0:13:090:13:13

Whereas Jack is bedazzled

0:13:130:13:14

by a venue perfect for his biggest performance to date.

0:13:140:13:18

-I like it.

-But do you think Sarah will like it?

0:13:180:13:20

You've got to remember it's a wedding.

0:13:200:13:22

Yeah, we come here all the time to watch shows

0:13:220:13:24

and it's going to be the biggest show you have ever seen.

0:13:240:13:26

-Yeah?

-Yeah. I'm loving it, me.

0:13:260:13:29

Imagine when the lights are on in here, and the lights go down and dim

0:13:290:13:32

and there is a spotlight on me and Sarah.

0:13:320:13:35

We need to look at numbers. How many are we looking across?

0:13:350:13:37

50, something like that?

0:13:370:13:39

50-odd back.

0:13:390:13:40

That's a lot. I'm getting all excited.

0:13:400:13:44

I've been coming here since I was a babby, watching shows.

0:13:440:13:49

-And now I'm doing my own show.

-Your wedding day.

0:13:490:13:53

While Jack is getting excited about the potential for his big show,

0:13:530:13:57

best man Tom is a bit more focused on the fact it's a wedding.

0:13:570:14:00

Do you think she will understand

0:14:000:14:02

the thought pattern behind everything?

0:14:020:14:04

Yeah, well she must do...

0:14:040:14:06

It's a wedding, it's a big special day, obviously it's what you want...

0:14:060:14:09

She's getting married to a magician.

0:14:090:14:12

I'm making a decision.

0:14:120:14:13

We are having a stage, done.

0:14:130:14:15

We're having a theatre, fact.

0:14:150:14:17

It's got to be done.

0:14:170:14:18

Back at All Saints Church,

0:14:180:14:21

Sarah is realising just how much getting married here

0:14:210:14:24

would mean to her and her family.

0:14:240:14:26

Here in this, one of our wedding registers,

0:14:260:14:29

-we've looked up to see if we could find you.

-Right, oh, lovely.

0:14:290:14:33

-Oh, yes, look.

-Just at the top.

0:14:340:14:38

That is so special.

0:14:380:14:40

That's lovely to see, isn't it, 33 years on?

0:14:400:14:43

It'd be nice, in times to come, that I can come and show my kids...

0:14:430:14:47

that this is where me and Jack got married.

0:14:470:14:49

Imagine if we didn't go somewhere like this,

0:14:500:14:53

like, traditional and grand,

0:14:530:14:55

and it was like something that's just not traditional,

0:14:550:14:57

somewhere that's just really out there and different

0:14:570:15:00

and like, why are we getting married here?

0:15:000:15:03

-TOM:

-My only concern is obviously, is it too big?

0:15:030:15:08

We've got budget to, you know, to consider.

0:15:080:15:12

We've got, you know, we've got to get everyone here, you know.

0:15:120:15:16

We've got the show to sort out,

0:15:160:15:18

as well as the dress and everything else that we've got to deal with.

0:15:180:15:23

Tom may have his doubts but Jack's set his heart on his dream venue.

0:15:230:15:27

All he needs now is to see if he can get it in budget

0:15:270:15:31

and on the right day.

0:15:310:15:32

There's only really two dates that I've got in my head.

0:15:320:15:36

It's either 12 August, or the 13th.

0:15:360:15:40

Now over both those dates, the auditorium is in use.

0:15:400:15:44

Um, it will be in use by the company in the day and then obviously,

0:15:440:15:47

the performance on the evening.

0:15:470:15:49

Looks like the lights may be going down on the theatre dream.

0:15:490:15:53

But for Jack, the show MUST go on.

0:15:530:15:55

So I'm thinking an option of stopping

0:15:550:15:58

a show during the interval, and doing something like that.

0:15:580:16:02

It's a professional show, Jack.

0:16:020:16:04

People have paid tickets. You can't just waltz in -

0:16:040:16:06

"Hi, I'm Jack. Don't stop, I'm getting married."

0:16:060:16:10

It's... It's... I'm afraid to say it, mate.

0:16:100:16:12

There's some things you can do and some things you can't do.

0:16:120:16:15

On this occasion, there's a show on.

0:16:150:16:17

As the curtain finally falls on Jack's plan, Sarah's come to see

0:16:200:16:25

the reception venue she would choose if she was in charge.

0:16:250:16:28

She's at Soulton Hall, an Elizabethan manor house in Shropshire,

0:16:280:16:33

along with Mum, Nan, and bridesmaids Rachel and Rachel.

0:16:330:16:37

Wow!

0:16:370:16:39

Oh, my days! That's so pretty.

0:16:390:16:42

Oh, it's really pretty, isn't it?

0:16:430:16:45

It's just so like elegant and like classy.

0:16:450:16:48

Yeah.

0:16:480:16:49

I like this kind of venue, because it's just fairytale,

0:16:490:16:52

quite princessey,

0:16:520:16:54

and I think a wedding has to have that magical theme about it.

0:16:540:16:58

Did she just say magical? Sarah, you could be in luck.

0:16:580:17:01

Imagine if it wasn't like this, though -

0:17:010:17:03

all like light and airy and it was all like dark and dingy.

0:17:030:17:05

You wouldn't want that, would you? Definitely not, no. This is lovely.

0:17:050:17:09

While Sarah daydreams in her bright and airy country manor,

0:17:110:17:14

Jack has conjured up another potential venue -

0:17:140:17:17

a converted cinema above an all-you-can-eat buffet.

0:17:170:17:21

Sounds perfect for a wedding!

0:17:210:17:23

-Oh, my God!

-Wow!

0:17:230:17:25

-Look at the size of it.

-You've even got like a stage and dance floor.

0:17:270:17:32

You are kidding me!

0:17:320:17:34

JACK GUFFAWS

0:17:380:17:40

Dude, are you thinking what I'm thinking?

0:17:400:17:42

-What are you thinking?

-I think we might have just found a venue.

0:17:420:17:45

Imagine, you've got everybody else down there, looking.

0:17:450:17:48

Oh, God. I'm bricking it already. I'm getting all nervous.

0:17:480:17:50

Imagine you've got all them people waiting.

0:17:500:17:52

All the way down, like that.

0:17:520:17:54

And we get married right on the stage.

0:17:540:17:56

I said I wanted a stage.

0:17:560:17:58

Jack might have found a venue for his show,

0:17:580:18:00

but Sarah doesn't want a show.

0:18:000:18:03

She wants a wedding.

0:18:030:18:04

Imagine us walking through here and everyone like just...

0:18:060:18:09

Walk down, all clapping.

0:18:110:18:14

Thanks, guys!

0:18:140:18:15

Now I've seen some venues that I've looked around

0:18:160:18:19

for a church and a venue to have a party in,

0:18:190:18:21

I think it's really like brought it real to me, that like

0:18:210:18:25

it's happening and that I really haven't got a say in anything.

0:18:250:18:28

I'm hoping that Jack, after four years, will know Sarah very well.

0:18:280:18:31

So I'm hoping that he will surprise her in the way

0:18:310:18:33

that she wants on her wedding day.

0:18:330:18:35

I think he's going to surprise us, you know. I've just get a feeling.

0:18:350:18:38

-Yeah.

-He's going to pull it out of the bag.

0:18:380:18:40

-He's good at...

-Yeah, I do.

0:18:400:18:42

Well, he's more likely to be pulling rabbits out of hats,

0:18:420:18:45

cos Jack's busy sealing the deal on HIS perfect venue.

0:18:450:18:50

-So we're looking at having the ceremony done here...

-Yep.

0:18:500:18:52

Um, we've got the aisle and obviously drinks reception,

0:18:520:18:54

that sort of thing while they change the space around,

0:18:540:18:57

ready for the evening with the cabaret tables.

0:18:570:19:00

And even best man Tom has given up trying to talk him around.

0:19:000:19:04

I'll leave this. Your call. But I... I know what I'd do.

0:19:040:19:07

-My call?

-I know...

-My call?

-If it was me, Tom.

0:19:070:19:10

-Suzanne, we're doing it.

-Great. Look forward to it.

0:19:100:19:12

We are in. We're in. We're doing it. I've got my venue! Oh, my God!

0:19:120:19:17

And just like that, Jack spends a budget-busting

0:19:170:19:20

£5,200 on his wedding ceremony and his full-on magic cabaret reception.

0:19:200:19:27

Got a full-blown stage and everything. I can't wait.

0:19:270:19:29

We've got like a full lighting rig which is going to make this show

0:19:290:19:32

look ten times better, um... Oh, I can't wait!

0:19:320:19:35

It's just perfect.

0:19:350:19:37

We've just spent pretty much half the budget on the venue.

0:19:370:19:40

I can't believe we've spent that much money already so fast!

0:19:400:19:44

Hopefully he's being successful

0:19:440:19:45

in getting on with things. Planning things.

0:19:450:19:48

I want to see an itemised list of what he's spent it on and

0:19:480:19:50

if he's budgeted.

0:19:500:19:52

What do you think the first thing is that he's going to look...to book?

0:19:520:19:55

-I hope it's the dress, the first thing he's booked.

-Do you?

0:19:550:19:58

-And planned, but...

-No, ensure there's a venue.

0:19:580:20:01

-Really?

-Yeah.

-No, a dress. I reckon dress.

0:20:010:20:03

Unfortunately for Sarah, he's not shopping

0:20:060:20:09

for a show stopping wedding dress,

0:20:090:20:11

but an ambitious show stopping illusion to add to his box of tricks.

0:20:110:20:16

When we go and buy this illusion today, and look at them,

0:20:160:20:19

It's going to be a bit kind of...

0:20:190:20:21

-Mmm.

-I'm going to be a bit nervous.

0:20:210:20:22

I'm going to be a bit nervous,

0:20:220:20:24

cos I know I've not got much money to play with.

0:20:240:20:26

And we've still not got the dress yet.

0:20:260:20:28

As the centrepiece of his wedding, Jack is planning to put Sarah

0:20:280:20:31

at the heart of his most daring and magnificent illusion yet.

0:20:310:20:36

Something he hopes will amaze and dazzle all his guests.

0:20:360:20:40

Close the doors and then down.

0:20:400:20:44

And there you have it. Dah-dah!

0:20:450:20:48

Enough of the tricks.

0:20:480:20:49

It's time to get down to some serious wedding business.

0:20:490:20:52

What can I do for you?

0:20:520:20:53

I need to make my fiance, my wife-to-be,

0:20:530:20:56

-float on her wedding day.

-Right.

0:20:560:20:58

-So I'm thinking of levitation, so I want to make her float.

-Right.

0:20:580:21:01

In front of... It's like the feature piece at the end of the show.

0:21:010:21:04

-So she's not going to know about it, how it works, so...

-No.

0:21:040:21:08

-..it leaves us with only really one choice.

-Oh, OK.

0:21:080:21:13

Which is going to be the Yogano.

0:21:130:21:16

This one's simply a chair the bride will stand on.

0:21:160:21:19

You'll give her two poles that she will hold on to and then literally,

0:21:190:21:23

you get the stool and you remove the stool and she's floating in midair.

0:21:230:21:27

-Wow. With nothing else?

-With nothing else.

-Oh!

0:21:270:21:29

-As simple as that.

-That's amazing, isn't it?

0:21:290:21:31

Mate, obviously, it's got to be as special

0:21:310:21:33

for her as well as for him, so...

0:21:330:21:34

But she's got to understand what she's getting into.

0:21:340:21:37

-That's it.

-It is, though, isn't it?

-Paul Daniels and Debbie McGee.

0:21:370:21:40

Without one, you wouldn't have the other.

0:21:400:21:42

She doesn't want him to be working on his wedding day.

0:21:420:21:45

-Yeah.

-Never mind an illusion.

-But I've said, on the flipside,

0:21:450:21:47

she is marrying a magician, so she's got to expect it at some point.

0:21:470:21:50

She knows what she's having.

0:21:500:21:51

It's my dream, this! Forget the wedding, it's my dream!

0:21:510:21:54

It's your dream, but you've got to remember,

0:21:540:21:56

it's her day as well. She's getting married.

0:21:560:21:58

She's looking amazing in a dress, heels,

0:21:580:22:00

-and you're asking her to go on stage...

-Stand on a stool.

0:22:000:22:02

Step on a stool. Is she really going to feel comfortable?

0:22:020:22:05

Yes, because the way you do it, it's...

0:22:050:22:07

"I want you to stand up there, cos I'm looking up,"

0:22:070:22:09

and it's all the height difference and it's...

0:22:090:22:11

This is the romance coming out now, isn't it?

0:22:110:22:14

-Oh, it's a story.

-I'm nervous for you.

0:22:140:22:15

Adam, thank you very, very, very much for your help.

0:22:150:22:18

It's a pleasure.

0:22:180:22:19

That's just over £700 of Jack's budget gone up in a puff of smoke

0:22:190:22:23

on the star of the wedding - a magic trick.

0:22:230:22:26

This, for me, at the end of the night,

0:22:270:22:29

being able to float Sarah up and up and up is just amazing.

0:22:290:22:32

To be able to do that on my wedding day,

0:22:320:22:35

knowing it's something that she's never seen before, ever,

0:22:350:22:38

ever, ever, and that we're able to do it - oh! Insane.

0:22:380:22:41

That's over half the budget gone with just an old cinema

0:22:420:22:45

and a magic trick booked.

0:22:450:22:47

Doubting Thomas has decided it's time to pin down his twin brother

0:22:490:22:52

for a budget chat.

0:22:520:22:55

You've got your illusion and that is...

0:22:550:22:57

That's a big chunk of the budget. £700.

0:22:570:22:59

You know, that's a lot of money.

0:22:590:23:00

It is. I completely agree with you but it's worth it, Tom.

0:23:000:23:04

That's a big part of what we're doing.

0:23:040:23:06

-You've still got to do the dress.

-Dresses.

-Rings.

-Yeah.

0:23:060:23:08

Guest list and all the little details.

0:23:080:23:12

Transport, bridal dresses...

0:23:120:23:14

Yeah.

0:23:140:23:15

Bridesmaids dresses. You've got plenty to do.

0:23:150:23:17

It's the end of the first week and in Shropshire, Sarah is still hoping

0:23:250:23:29

for her traditional white wedding.

0:23:290:23:31

She's come to look for a dress perfect for her dream day

0:23:310:23:33

along with her mum, nan, and two of her bridesmaids,

0:23:330:23:36

Rachel and Steph.

0:23:360:23:37

My dress is the most important part of the wedding, because it's just...

0:23:370:23:41

I want to look nice, I want to feel comfortable,

0:23:410:23:43

I want to be the centre of attention,

0:23:430:23:45

everyone looking at me and how pretty my dress is

0:23:450:23:48

and looking like a princess and feeling like a princess for the day.

0:23:480:23:52

-That's nice as well.

-It's a different colour, isn't it?

-Yeah.

0:23:520:23:55

-Oh, there's so many gorgeous ones!

-I know how you feel.

0:23:550:23:58

This is like my dream shop,

0:23:580:24:00

like this is like exactly what I want the dress to be.

0:24:000:24:03

Back in Burton-upon-Trent,

0:24:050:24:07

Jack and Tom are also on the look for the perfect dress.

0:24:070:24:09

The perfect dress for levitating his glamorous assistant,

0:24:090:24:12

AKA the bride, two feet off the ground.

0:24:120:24:15

The show that we're doing, um, in the evening at the venue, um,

0:24:150:24:20

Sarah's dress has got to be convenient for that,

0:24:200:24:22

obviously, with regards to the illusion that we're doing,

0:24:220:24:24

the dress does play a part within what we're doing.

0:24:240:24:26

Oh, wow. Hello.

0:24:280:24:29

Hello.

0:24:290:24:31

Blissfully unaware she's going to be Jack's Debbie McGee,

0:24:310:24:35

Sarah's looking for a dress perfect for the one day

0:24:350:24:38

that she wants to be all about her.

0:24:380:24:40

Got to have a look at this one over here.

0:24:400:24:43

I've got to try that one, definitely.

0:24:430:24:46

It looks like Jack has the magic touch.

0:24:460:24:49

The first dress he's drawn to would definitely make Sarah shine.

0:24:490:24:53

Wow! That's well nice.

0:24:530:24:56

Hey, that's lovely, that is.

0:24:560:24:58

Don't want to jump straight in, but that is really like...

0:24:580:25:00

That's dead pretty. It don't feel right!

0:25:000:25:03

You can't see a dress and go, "That's the one!"

0:25:030:25:06

All the sparkle on the netting and all of that, well pretty.

0:25:060:25:10

It is really nice.

0:25:100:25:11

But all that glitters may not be gold for this bride.

0:25:110:25:15

Sarah's falling for a simple classic dress without a sparkle in sight.

0:25:150:25:21

-That's beautiful.

-Oh, Sarah, that's gorgeous.

-I love that bow.

-Yeah.

0:25:210:25:27

It's the colour as well, Sarah, I think, that suits you.

0:25:270:25:31

-Yeah.

-Isn't that gorgeous?

-There's no bling, really.

0:25:310:25:35

-There's no bling on it.

-But it's simple and it's just classy.

0:25:350:25:38

While Sarah's enchanted by a traditional gown,

0:25:380:25:42

Jack is still looking for a dress

0:25:420:25:46

that will make his bride twinkle in the spotlight.

0:25:460:25:50

Oh, my word!

0:25:500:25:52

Look at the bling of it! But it's not too much.

0:25:550:25:57

You've got all the diamonds,

0:25:570:25:58

I keep getting flickers on the dress on the bottom bit. Oh, Tom...

0:25:580:26:01

Imagine what it'd be like to see her in that.

0:26:010:26:04

That is absolutely stunning.

0:26:040:26:07

While Jack may have found the perfect dress for his show,

0:26:070:26:10

Sarah's found the perfect dress for her wedding.

0:26:100:26:13

-This is the one, is it?

-Yeah, this is the one.

-That's just very classy.

0:26:130:26:17

So classy, isn't it? And very traditional as well.

0:26:170:26:21

'If it wasn't my dream dress what Jack chose,'

0:26:210:26:24

I think I would be a little disappointed

0:26:240:26:26

because obviously I know what I've got in my mind

0:26:260:26:29

and what I really like and what my mind's set on.

0:26:290:26:32

-That is gorgeous, isn't it?

-Yes.

0:26:320:26:34

If you had a church, which one would you choose?

0:26:340:26:38

This one.

0:26:380:26:40

If you had a big manor house?

0:26:400:26:43

This one.

0:26:440:26:46

And if you had...a magic cabaret in an old cinema?

0:26:460:26:50

This one.

0:26:500:26:51

I think for the trick that we're doing in the evening,

0:26:510:26:54

that's going to be suitable.

0:26:540:26:56

I've got to make her float in it, two foot from the floor.

0:26:560:26:59

-How's that...?

-I can't tell you my secret, I'm afraid!

0:26:590:27:02

There's no harnesses or anything, is there?

0:27:020:27:05

No, nothing that needs to be dealt with.

0:27:050:27:07

What I like is, if you look at the base of the dress,

0:27:070:27:10

-it's going below your feet, which is great.

-How's that?

0:27:100:27:14

-I'm wearing very high heels.

-Oh, OK, that's worth knowing.

0:27:140:27:18

So, height wise, it'll definitely be fine on that.

0:27:180:27:21

So Jack spends £950 on a glittering, show-stopping dress, tiara and veil.

0:27:210:27:29

Sarah's dream of a classic, traditional wedding

0:27:290:27:33

has been sawn in two.

0:27:330:27:35

It's, in my mind, the perfect dress.

0:27:350:27:38

In her mind, I would HOPE that it's the perfect dress.

0:27:380:27:43

It's the beginning of week two.

0:27:450:27:47

Jack and Tom are heading to Telford on a special mission

0:27:470:27:50

to give Sarah an admission ticket to her own wedding and, for once,

0:27:500:27:54

there's no magic involved.

0:27:540:27:56

Phase one - get Sarah out of the house without suspecting a thing.

0:27:560:28:00

"Hi, Rachel, it's Tom Dent.

0:28:000:28:03

"Jack would like to surprise Sarah

0:28:030:28:05

"and the girls for a rematch of one of our recent games.

0:28:050:28:10

"Get yourselves ready and have a great afternoon." What the hell?

0:28:100:28:15

Phase two - get into the house, deliver the invitation

0:28:180:28:21

and get out of there undetected.

0:28:210:28:22

Right, quick, quick, quick.

0:28:220:28:24

-Walkie-talkie. Ticket.

-Yep.

0:28:240:28:27

-Rose petals, number 12 nice and big on the pillow.

-That on the pillow.

0:28:270:28:31

-And that on the bed.

-OK.

0:28:310:28:33

He might have a magical twin...

0:28:330:28:35

Testing, one-two.

0:28:350:28:36

I've got you.

0:28:360:28:37

..but the only way Tom is going to know if the girls get back early

0:28:370:28:40

is if Jack keeps a lookout.

0:28:400:28:42

To make his fiancee disappear,

0:28:430:28:45

Jack has arranged for the girls to go clubbing.

0:28:450:28:47

Hand these in when you're finished.

0:28:470:28:49

I say clubbing - it's mini-golf.

0:28:490:28:52

'I think Jack organising the crazy golf,

0:28:520:28:54

'we did have a game a few weeks ago

0:28:540:28:55

'and obviously he wanted to see if I was still good at it

0:28:550:28:58

'cos I did beat him the other day.'

0:28:580:29:00

What? No, I give up, I just give up.

0:29:000:29:04

-JACK ON WALKIE-TALKIE:

-Not got much time, mate, try and be quick.

0:29:040:29:07

This is so stressful.

0:29:080:29:10

Time's running out.

0:29:100:29:12

The girls have finished their game and are heading back home.

0:29:120:29:15

Right, I'm on my way, on my way.

0:29:150:29:17

Yes!

0:29:180:29:20

Well done, sunshine, put it there! Good job, let's go.

0:29:200:29:23

Ohhh!

0:29:360:29:39

What's it say on your ticket?

0:29:410:29:43

It just says "admit one -

0:29:430:29:46

"Jack and Sarah's wedding on the 12th of August 2015."

0:29:460:29:50

Jack's admission ticket invite has got the girls worried

0:29:500:29:53

about what's in store for the big day.

0:29:530:29:55

Maybe this is just the wedding theme.

0:29:550:29:57

Yeah, maybe it's like your golden ticket to go to the ball.

0:29:580:30:02

I can't think of how it would be on the actual wedding day, though.

0:30:020:30:05

How's he going to get a theme into the whole wedding?

0:30:050:30:09

Without it being, like, really over the top?

0:30:090:30:12

It is kind of scaring me a little

0:30:120:30:14

because I thought he might have toned it down a little bit

0:30:140:30:17

whereas I think a lot of theatre shows and productions,

0:30:170:30:20

all the name in lights and stuff, is quite big, bold and in your face.

0:30:200:30:24

That's kind of not what I want!

0:30:240:30:26

Oh, dear!

0:30:260:30:29

I kind of need your help, my friend, cos JD is getting married.

0:30:290:30:34

Alongside his own star performance on the big day,

0:30:340:30:37

Jack wants to book a big name act.

0:30:370:30:39

And, in typical Jack fashion, he's aiming high -

0:30:390:30:42

VERY high.

0:30:420:30:44

How much do you think it'd cost me

0:30:440:30:45

to get Lionel Ritchie at the wedding?

0:30:450:30:47

Hello there, have I got the right number

0:30:470:30:49

for Lionel Ritchie's publicity and press, please?

0:30:490:30:52

Although she said he might not be in the UK,

0:30:520:30:55

to me, that doesn't mean anything.

0:30:550:30:57

That's not saying that he CAN'T be in the UK, anything's possible.

0:30:570:31:00

If he had to be here, then he would be here.

0:31:000:31:02

But on the off-chance Lionel doesn't want to perform

0:31:020:31:05

in a converted cinema above an all-you-can-eat buffet,

0:31:050:31:08

Jack has got a few backups.

0:31:080:31:09

I'm organising an evening variety performance with myself,

0:31:090:31:13

my twin brother Tom, we're looking at getting some special guests in.

0:31:130:31:17

Adam Ant.

0:31:170:31:18

Oh, really? Oh, wow!

0:31:180:31:21

Jamiroquai.

0:31:210:31:22

That's perfect.

0:31:220:31:23

-Robbie Williams.

-Really?!

0:31:230:31:25

Wicked! Elton John.

0:31:250:31:27

I'm wondering if, er, if they'd like to be part of our wedding day.

0:31:270:31:32

-Pavarotti.

-Er, he's dead.

0:31:320:31:34

Thank you very much. Have a nice day, bye-bye.

0:31:340:31:37

It'd be a nice surprise for her

0:31:370:31:38

if we could get some of you guys down there.

0:31:380:31:40

All being well, Mr Lionel Ritchie.

0:31:400:31:43

The lookalike.

0:31:430:31:45

I did try getting the original, but it proved to be very, very tricky.

0:31:450:31:49

With his A-list of lookalikeys booked,

0:31:490:31:52

Jack's very own lookalikey is getting worried.

0:31:520:31:56

She said when they first got engaged,

0:31:560:31:59

"I don't want you to work on your wedding day,"

0:31:590:32:01

and that's exactly what he's going to be doing so fingers crossed,

0:32:010:32:04

I hope she understands and kind of sees where he's coming from,

0:32:040:32:08

but it's a bit of a risk.

0:32:080:32:10

It's been nearly two weeks since Sarah and Jack said their goodbyes.

0:32:130:32:18

Since I've been apart from Jack, I've actually started doing

0:32:180:32:21

a diary of what I've been doing every day

0:32:210:32:23

and what I think Jack's been planning

0:32:230:32:26

or what I hope he's been planning or I wonder what he's been planning.

0:32:260:32:30

So it's kind of keeping me occupied cos it's giving me something to do.

0:32:300:32:34

'I've really thought about getting married

0:32:340:32:36

'and having a big wedding day

0:32:360:32:37

'since I was little with, you know, the big princessy,'

0:32:370:32:39

traditional big white wedding with the traditional themes throughout -

0:32:390:32:45

the church, the entertainment, the transport, everything like that.

0:32:450:32:50

So I've really dreamt about this for ages.

0:32:520:32:55

Entertainment that I'd like,

0:32:570:32:59

I'd like maybe a band or some kind of music in the background

0:32:590:33:04

that people could listen to or have a dance to,

0:33:040:33:06

but I won't really want anything that's too in your face,

0:33:060:33:10

like circus acts and aerial silks or something like that

0:33:100:33:14

that's a bit wacky and out there or anything to do with magic

0:33:140:33:17

or a classic stage show or something like that

0:33:170:33:20

because that's what he does a lot all the time every day.

0:33:200:33:23

So I think that if that was at our wedding,

0:33:230:33:25

I'd feel like I'm just at work with him.

0:33:250:33:27

Even if it wasn't him performing and someone else doing it,

0:33:270:33:30

I'd still feel like, "I'm just at a magic show."

0:33:300:33:32

It's not JUST a magic show - there's a whole host of acts.

0:33:320:33:36

There's Robbie Williams, Elton John, Pavarotti back from the dead.

0:33:360:33:41

But that's all to come. Now, it's time for your hen do.

0:33:410:33:44

I'm just a bit anxious about where we're going to go,

0:33:460:33:49

what we're going to do.

0:33:490:33:50

We're getting all dolled up like this and then it'll be like...

0:33:500:33:53

-Bingo!

-Yeah!

0:33:530:33:54

Let's go.

0:33:560:33:57

Their transport has arrived to whisk them off to their secret location.

0:33:570:34:01

But with all the money blown on Burton's ultimate variety night,

0:34:010:34:04

it's not quite what Sarah was hoping for.

0:34:040:34:07

A white minibus! Are you joking?

0:34:070:34:09

Well, he's sorted out the luxury travel(!)

0:34:150:34:17

Leather seats!

0:34:180:34:20

I think you'd like to do a spa and then, at night-time,

0:34:200:34:23

get ready, have your hair done, make-up and then go out.

0:34:230:34:26

Yeah, a spa would be quite relaxing.

0:34:260:34:28

A spa is exactly what Jack has planned...

0:34:300:34:33

for himself.

0:34:330:34:34

Oh, this is lovely!

0:34:340:34:35

With the show just days away, Jack's taking some time to fully prepare.

0:34:350:34:40

Oh, my God!

0:34:400:34:41

JD decided to treat himself

0:34:410:34:44

because, you know, throughout this whole process of this,

0:34:440:34:48

I've done everything for my girl, for Sarah.

0:34:480:34:51

It's the only one thing out of the whole budget,

0:34:510:34:55

the whole experience, that I've done for myself.

0:34:550:34:57

Unless you count buying magic tricks and booking acts for your show,

0:34:570:35:00

but let's not quibble.

0:35:000:35:02

While Jack relaxes at the spa, Sarah and her bridesmaids

0:35:040:35:07

arrive in Shrewsbury for a cocktail masterclass, followed by a meal.

0:35:070:35:11

Obviously, he knows that I'm quite a classy girl,

0:35:110:35:13

he has thought about that when he's planned this hen party

0:35:130:35:16

cos it's a really classy venue.

0:35:160:35:17

We're doing some classy things

0:35:170:35:19

and hopefully he has thought about that

0:35:190:35:20

in the way he has planned the wedding.

0:35:200:35:22

Sarah, this is a special moment, my darling,

0:35:220:35:24

cos you're going to create something special.

0:35:240:35:26

Thoughtful Jack has arranged for the girls to make cocktails

0:35:260:35:29

that were available on the cruise ship

0:35:290:35:31

the first night he and Sarah met.

0:35:310:35:35

THEY CHEER

0:35:350:35:38

-Wow!

-Oh, lovely-jubbly!

0:35:380:35:41

'I really think Jack's thought about me

0:35:410:35:44

'when he's planned this hen party.'

0:35:440:35:45

It does really make me think that he's going to think about me

0:35:450:35:48

for everything else he's planning.

0:35:480:35:50

On the massage table,

0:35:520:35:53

Jack is already thinking about his happily ever after.

0:35:530:35:56

I tell you now, I'll definitely be bringing her back

0:35:560:35:59

cos as Mr and Mrs Dent, we are going to be sparring all the time.

0:35:590:36:04

And there might be sparring of a different kind fairly soon

0:36:040:36:08

once Sarah realises what's in store for her wedding.

0:36:080:36:11

It's the final week and, with around £2,000 left,

0:36:120:36:16

magic man Jack is on a mission to make it vanish as fast as possible.

0:36:160:36:20

He takes a gamble on a fun casino...

0:36:200:36:22

We'll do it for you for £800 plus the VAT, which brings you to 960.

0:36:220:36:28

..hires suits.

0:36:280:36:30

You're paying £300 for four suits.

0:36:300:36:32

That, for me, is absolutely spot on.

0:36:320:36:36

..and, most importantly, collects his show-stopping illusion.

0:36:360:36:40

Absolutely stunning! It feels like a million dollars.

0:36:400:36:44

Not only is it my first illusion, I'm floating my WIFE! Brilliant.

0:36:440:36:49

With time and budget running out,

0:36:490:36:51

the boys still have one big job left -

0:36:510:36:54

to buy dresses for five demanding bridesmaids.

0:36:540:36:57

That's a really nice blue, actually. What size is that?

0:36:570:37:00

Six!

0:37:000:37:02

What does that mean?

0:37:040:37:05

These are going to be the ones.

0:37:050:37:07

£544.85, sweetheart.

0:37:100:37:13

Wow!

0:37:130:37:14

With the dresses and shoes in the bag,

0:37:140:37:16

the boys head off to deliver them to five anxious bridesmaids.

0:37:160:37:20

-I'm worried mine is not going to fit.

-Yeah, same.

0:37:210:37:24

We're not the same size. It's going to be difficult.

0:37:240:37:27

I would find it difficult.

0:37:270:37:28

He's got a challenge.

0:37:280:37:29

'There's still a lot of worry.'

0:37:290:37:32

Now, we've got Monday and Tuesday

0:37:320:37:34

to potentially go and re-buy bridesmaids dresses.

0:37:340:37:37

I think that's what we've all sort of discussed together -

0:37:370:37:39

that if they are horrendous, then we can go and buy our own!

0:37:390:37:44

-Hi, everyone!

-Hello!

-Lovely to see you.

-And you.

0:37:440:37:49

Just hold. OK, you can stand up and have a nosey. One, two, three - go.

0:37:520:37:56

Oh, wow!

0:37:560:37:58

So, go and get them on. Quick as you can, I'm so nervous!

0:37:580:38:02

Good luck, everyone!

0:38:020:38:04

-Have we all got the right size?

-Yep.

0:38:070:38:11

-No.

-Oh, dear.

-Mine says size six.

0:38:110:38:15

What happens if it doesn't fit?

0:38:150:38:18

If they start complaining, I'm gone.

0:38:180:38:21

End of!

0:38:220:38:23

-I'm so nervous, guys, really.

-So are we!

-Oh, no!

0:38:230:38:28

I'm sweating really bad.

0:38:280:38:30

-ALL BRIDESMAIDS:

-Three, two, one...

0:38:300:38:33

Oh, wow!

0:38:340:38:36

-Wow!

-Oh, my God!

-Did we do good?

0:38:360:38:40

Steph's got something to tell you.

0:38:400:38:43

-It's a bit tight.

-Steph's is two sizes too small.

0:38:430:38:47

Right, OK, cool.

0:38:470:38:48

Have you paid for alterations?

0:38:480:38:51

No. That's all been spent on his tricks. But, as if by magic...

0:38:510:38:56

-She's got her auntie that can do it?

-Yeah, we've got a seamstress.

0:38:560:38:59

Brilliant! Put it there.

0:38:590:39:01

Absolutely amazing.

0:39:010:39:03

I'll be honest with you, it could have gone a lot worse,

0:39:030:39:05

it could have gone a hell of a lot worse.

0:39:050:39:07

These are glamorous, we're going to a ball.

0:39:070:39:11

Going to a ball or going to the theatre.

0:39:110:39:14

Well, more of a cinema. But it's Ritzy!

0:39:140:39:17

It's two days before Jack hopes to wow his bride

0:39:200:39:23

with a spectacular magic show

0:39:230:39:25

and, with the help of his magician friend Paul,

0:39:250:39:27

he's planning to give her a taste of what's to come

0:39:270:39:30

with a cunning stunt involving the dress.

0:39:300:39:32

You can just clip...

0:39:330:39:37

Using magical tools of the trade,

0:39:370:39:39

they are going to conjure up a surprise illusion.

0:39:390:39:42

Cool!

0:39:420:39:43

She told me and swore to me, "Jack, don't do magic on our wedding day."

0:39:430:39:47

Is Jack beginning to realise he may be overdoing it on the magic?

0:39:470:39:51

No, of course not!

0:39:540:39:55

What else do I do?

0:40:030:40:05

Mess with the wedding dress, get her up on stage, host a show,

0:40:050:40:09

have it a cabaret, have it on a stage.

0:40:090:40:12

Here we go. Do you know what they call it, Mr P?

0:40:120:40:15

-Job done.

-Job...done.

0:40:150:40:17

Boom, we're in!

0:40:170:40:19

We will hear it from our house

0:40:210:40:23

whether she likes it or doesn't like it.

0:40:230:40:25

It's the day before the wedding

0:40:330:40:35

and the moment the bride has been dreaming of for years

0:40:350:40:39

is just around the corner.

0:40:390:40:41

Sarah, her mum, her nan

0:40:410:40:43

and her five bridesmaids are about to see the dress she'll get married in.

0:40:430:40:48

I'm really excited to see my wedding dress.

0:40:480:40:51

I'm a little bit anxious and a bit worried.

0:40:510:40:53

I think cos I'm such a traditional person,

0:40:530:40:54

if this is slightly wrong or completely wrong, it will put doubts

0:40:540:40:58

in my mind of everything being completely different to what I want.

0:40:580:41:01

Sarah longed for a sophisticated classic dress

0:41:010:41:05

to match her dream of a traditional church wedding.

0:41:050:41:07

What will she make of the blinged-up dress Jack chose

0:41:070:41:11

to fit in with his showcase?

0:41:110:41:13

Not to mention the extra magical touch he conjured up yesterday.

0:41:130:41:17

-Would you like to come and try your dress, then?

-Yeah, I think so!

0:41:170:41:21

If you'd like to come through...

0:41:210:41:23

-It looks quite big in the back so hopefully it's...

-OK.

0:41:230:41:27

-Is that good?

-Yeah, that's good.

-OK.

0:41:270:41:29

OK, so this is the dress Jack's picked for you.

0:41:290:41:32

He's put a lot of thought into this

0:41:320:41:35

and thinks it's going to go with your whole wedding theme

0:41:350:41:37

so here we are.

0:41:370:41:40

SHE GASPS

0:41:400:41:42

Oh, my God!

0:41:450:41:47

Don't you like it?

0:41:510:41:52

Don't you like it?

0:41:550:41:56

Oh, Sarah...

0:41:560:41:58

-SARAH WEEPS

-Is she crying?

-Yeah.

0:41:580:42:00

Sarah, are you all right?

0:42:000:42:02

-I don't like the colour.

-Do you want me to come in?

0:42:020:42:05

Sarah, are you all right, darling?

0:42:070:42:10

Darling, darling, what's wrong?

0:42:100:42:13

-I don't like the colour.

-Oh, for goodness' sake!

0:42:130:42:15

-What is he thinking of?

-He said it would go with the wedding.

0:42:150:42:20

He knows you don't like green. Where did he get green from?

0:42:210:42:24

-No way!

-What did she say?

-Green.

0:42:240:42:29

-Just try it. Just try it.

-Just try it, darling.

0:42:290:42:32

I know it's not what you want.

0:42:320:42:34

SARAH CONTINUES TO WEEP

0:42:340:42:38

Sarah, look, just try it.

0:42:380:42:41

SARAH SCREAMS

0:42:410:42:43

Oh, my God!

0:42:430:42:45

Oh, my God, it's beautiful!

0:42:480:42:50

-What's he done?

-I was going to kill him!

0:42:550:42:59

-Oh, my God, it's beautiful!

-Isn't it beautiful?

-Is that the one?

0:42:590:43:03

That's you, that's your dress.

0:43:030:43:05

-What's he done?

-I'm going to kill him!

0:43:050:43:10

-It was two dresses in one bag.

-It was green and it was vile.

0:43:100:43:14

It's like bright green, like frog green, like Nan's cardigan green.

0:43:140:43:20

I'm literally going to kill him when I see him.

0:43:220:43:24

I'm actually going to kill him.

0:43:240:43:26

I'm already stressed enough and he shows me a green wedding dress.

0:43:260:43:30

Oh, dear! Oh, dear!

0:43:300:43:32

How did you just do that? Is that a magic trick?

0:43:320:43:35

-It was a magic trick.

-Really?

0:43:350:43:39

ALL GASP

0:43:430:43:45

-Oh, my goodness!

-Oh, Sarah, that's beautiful.

0:43:450:43:49

Gorgeous!

0:43:490:43:52

It feels amazing.

0:43:520:43:54

The jewels and everything on,

0:43:540:43:56

they're just right, just the right amount.

0:43:560:43:58

-That tiara is absolutely gorgeous.

-Do I look good?

-Yeah, you do.

0:43:590:44:05

-That sprinkle of jewels as well...

-Yeah.

-And it's very not green.

-Yeah!

0:44:050:44:10

-I'm so glad it's not green.

-Oh, it's gorgeous!

-Look at that!

-Oh, wow!

0:44:110:44:16

That fits perfect.

0:44:160:44:18

SHE GASPS

0:44:190:44:21

Oh, my God...

0:44:210:44:24

I love it!

0:44:240:44:26

Oh, it's amazing!

0:44:260:44:28

-I love it.

-Do you feel like a princess?

-Yeah, a proper princess.

0:44:280:44:32

I think he knew if he got it wrong, he'd actually be dead.

0:44:340:44:36

I'm actually going to kill him, anyway, cos of the green one, but...

0:44:360:44:40

-You'll forget all about that tomorrow.

-No, I won't.

0:44:400:44:42

I think the dress that he's bought for me is absolutely beautiful

0:44:420:44:45

and I think he really knew that that was going to suit me

0:44:450:44:49

and he wanted me to be a princess, obviously,

0:44:490:44:52

so he got the right shape, the right fit.

0:44:520:44:55

I think he's got it spot on and he's really done well.

0:44:550:44:58

The dress that Jack has actually chosen for the day is just perfect.

0:44:580:45:02

He couldn't have chosen better.

0:45:020:45:03

Come on, Princess Fiona!

0:45:030:45:05

LAUGHTER

0:45:050:45:08

-It does fit nice, but imagine me turning up with this

--

0:45:080:45:11

green veil, green tiara, green shoes.

0:45:110:45:14

Did you hear what they said?

0:45:140:45:16

Yeah, I look like Princess Fiona.

0:45:160:45:18

He's Shrek and I'm Fiona.

0:45:180:45:19

I'm actually really fuming that he's decided to pull a trick on me

0:45:190:45:23

this close to the wedding cos he'll know I'm really anxious

0:45:230:45:26

cos obviously it's the day before the wedding

0:45:260:45:28

and I haven't seen my dress yet.

0:45:280:45:30

To pull that prank was a bit stupid, really.

0:45:300:45:32

Frog green! Toad green!

0:45:320:45:34

There you go, you've got your laughs now.

0:45:350:45:37

This is what I was screaming about.

0:45:370:45:39

It's the morning of the wedding and the girls are still reeling

0:45:450:45:48

from the magic trick Jack pulled on Sarah yesterday.

0:45:480:45:52

If you think he did that little trick with your dress,

0:45:520:45:55

what else do you think he might have done?

0:45:550:45:57

I hope that he does think of me and think,

0:45:570:46:00

"No, that's the trick over and done with.

0:46:000:46:02

"Let's get the serious side of it out now

0:46:020:46:04

"and do something really nice."

0:46:040:46:06

Well, Jack IS getting on with the serious stuff,

0:46:060:46:09

doing what he does best - organising a variety show.

0:46:090:46:13

Look at that rig!

0:46:130:46:14

Those lasers looked amazing, Roger.

0:46:140:46:16

Perfect!

0:46:160:46:18

We have a blue door, everyone.

0:46:180:46:21

A blue door - the second illusion.

0:46:220:46:24

We're producing Lionel Ritchie, everyone, for real.

0:46:240:46:28

While Jack ensures the magic really WILL happen on the day,

0:46:310:46:35

Sarah gets her first look

0:46:350:46:36

at the dresses he's chosen for the bridesmaids.

0:46:360:46:39

Oh, you all look beautiful! You're my bridesmaids!

0:46:390:46:45

Oh, girls, I'm so happy.

0:46:460:46:49

Happy with the bridesmaids' dresses, Sarah gets to be centre stage

0:46:490:46:54

as she reveals her wedding dress to the other man in her life - her dad.

0:46:540:46:58

You look absolutely gorgeous, darling. Beautiful.

0:47:020:47:06

I've got Nan's cross on the back for you.

0:47:060:47:07

Come here, Dad.

0:47:090:47:10

Oh, I'm so proud of you, darling. You're beautiful, you really are.

0:47:130:47:18

In her traditional dress, Sarah gets into her traditional wedding car,

0:47:180:47:22

hoping she's going to the traditional wedding of her dreams.

0:47:220:47:26

-We're going to a wedding!

-We are!

-Going to MY wedding.

0:47:260:47:30

-The thing is where are we going?

-I don't know! That's the scary thing.

0:47:300:47:34

Look at the lights! Oh, look at that!

0:47:360:47:39

This is one of our illusions later on.

0:47:390:47:41

It's very, very thin so I can't have any lighting from behind.

0:47:410:47:44

Back on the road, Sarah has driven past the town

0:47:440:47:46

with the family church she was hoping to be married in.

0:47:460:47:49

It is hard, thinking that getting married in Wellington

0:47:490:47:53

would have been the ideal. That's what the tradition was, wasn't it?

0:47:530:47:57

Hopefully, he's got something of the same standard, the same look, maybe.

0:47:570:48:02

Meanwhile, at the venue, Jack's planning a surprise illusion

0:48:030:48:07

the moment Sarah walks down the aisle.

0:48:070:48:10

I'm going to crawl down here.

0:48:110:48:12

I'm going to crawl under and then we're literally just going to go...

0:48:120:48:16

That's when I'll crawl under.

0:48:160:48:17

As soon as you see me stand up, just go one, two, three...

0:48:170:48:20

Let go and I'll appear.

0:48:200:48:21

Back in the car, it dawns on Sarah she won't be getting

0:48:230:48:26

the traditional wedding she was hoping for after all.

0:48:260:48:30

Where are we going?

0:48:300:48:33

This can't be the wedding venue.

0:48:330:48:35

At last, the scene is set and the guests are gathered

0:48:350:48:40

as a very confused bride makes her way into the lobby.

0:48:400:48:42

-It's very different to what I imagined!

-Yes, absolutely.

0:48:420:48:47

I didn't think that it'd be in a restaurant.

0:48:470:48:49

Where is everyone, Dad?

0:48:490:48:52

I don't know, we just keep going round and round, don't we?

0:48:520:48:56

Where have we got to go?

0:48:560:48:58

Oh, my days, is he being serious? He knew how big this dress was!

0:48:580:49:04

Oh, my... What is he doing? Where are we going?

0:49:040:49:07

Oh, and there's more steps.

0:49:070:49:10

After three weeks of waiting and five flights of stairs,

0:49:100:49:14

the bride who wanted a traditional church wedding

0:49:140:49:17

finally gets a glimpse of the magic in store.

0:49:170:49:19

-SHE SCREAMS

-Oh, my God!

0:49:190:49:24

It's stunning!

0:49:240:49:26

I thought we were getting married in a restaurant!

0:49:260:49:30

Everything is set for a magical wedding.

0:49:350:49:39

But there's one thing missing - the groom.

0:49:390:49:42

Where is he?

0:49:420:49:43

I can see his dad and his brother, but where is he?

0:49:460:49:48

It's time for Jack's first big illusion.

0:49:480:49:51

Where's he hiding?

0:49:510:49:53

Is he behind that cloth?

0:49:560:49:58

Yes, Sarah, yes, he is.

0:49:580:50:00

Ta-dah!

0:50:020:50:03

-I love you.

-I love you, too.

0:50:140:50:16

(Compose yourself.)

0:50:210:50:23

I, Jack David Dent, take you, Sarah Louise Robinson,

0:50:260:50:30

as my best friend for life.

0:50:300:50:32

I pledge to honour, encourage and support you.

0:50:320:50:36

-Through our walk together.

-Through our walk together.

0:50:360:50:39

When our way becomes difficult, I promise I'll stand by your side.

0:50:390:50:43

I now pronounce you husband and wife.

0:50:450:50:50

-You may now kiss.

-APPLAUSE

0:50:500:50:53

When I pulled up to this restaurant,

0:51:000:51:02

I was thinking I was going to be walking down between two tables

0:51:020:51:05

was going to be the aisle.

0:51:050:51:07

As soon as I walked through that door, I was just like, "Whoa!"

0:51:070:51:10

And the best part is you still don't know what's coming.

0:51:100:51:13

I don't need any more surprises!

0:51:130:51:15

With the ceremony over, Sarah's had a taste of the magic to come.

0:51:150:51:20

The room is transformed, ready for Jack's big show

0:51:200:51:23

with his brand-new illusion as the grand finale.

0:51:230:51:28

It's very theatrical, very Las Vegas.

0:51:280:51:32

-I've got quite a lot of surprises in store for you.

-Mmm, OK!

0:51:320:51:35

I've got stuff to do! I've got illusions to do later on.

0:51:350:51:38

It's all very... Lots to do.

0:51:380:51:40

We're doing the doorframe illusion, we're also making Sarah float

0:51:400:51:43

so we've still got lots of magic to put in there yet.

0:51:430:51:46

-Please save my seat next to you here.

-Yeah, that's fine.

0:51:460:51:49

-I'm excited!

-Hold tight!

0:51:490:51:52

It does feel like I'm just sat down ready for a show to start,

0:51:540:51:57

not actually at a wedding

0:51:570:51:59

where I'm supposed to be mingling with the guests.

0:51:590:52:01

I think everyone's going to be sat down and told to just watch.

0:52:010:52:04

As the audience files in, they are met by an A-list cast,

0:52:040:52:07

including Simon Cowell, Pavarotti and Harry Hill.

0:52:070:52:11

Well, their lookalikes, at least.

0:52:110:52:14

Ladies and gentlemen...

0:52:140:52:17

..it's showtime!

0:52:190:52:20

CHEERING

0:52:200:52:23

To warm the crowd up, Jack has got his very special guests.

0:52:230:52:26

Please welcome to the stage, Mr Adam Ant!

0:52:260:52:29

# Stand and deliver... #

0:52:310:52:34

A very, very close friend - Pavarotti!

0:52:360:52:40

HE MIMES TO PAVAROTTI RECORDING

0:52:400:52:44

It did feel like he's working a bit because he was just up

0:52:440:52:47

and down all the time and that's what he's like,

0:52:470:52:49

he wants to be part of it and he doesn't like to just sit back

0:52:490:52:52

so that's probably why he wants to get involved.

0:52:520:52:54

It's like, "Just sit with me

0:52:540:52:56

-"and enjoy it and hold my hand and relax!"

-It's Robbie Williams!

0:52:560:52:59

Over the next three hours, they come thick and fast.

0:52:590:53:02

Jamiroquai!

0:53:020:53:04

Now, it's the moment everyone has been waiting for.

0:53:040:53:08

The next act on stage you're about to see...

0:53:080:53:12

-..is myself.

-CHEERING

0:53:130:53:16

It's Jack's time to shine and the bride,

0:53:160:53:20

who just wanted a traditional wedding with no magic,

0:53:200:53:22

is about to be put under the spotlight

0:53:220:53:25

at the centre of Jack's biggest trick.

0:53:250:53:29

APPLAUSE

0:53:470:53:49

The bride, who wanted to be centre of attention for the day,

0:53:490:53:53

is left literally floating on air.

0:53:530:53:56

When he got me up, I was like, "What are you doing?"

0:53:580:54:01

I thought he was going to saw me in half or something!

0:54:010:54:03

The crowd love it, but has Jack's biggest show ever

0:54:030:54:06

impressed the one person who didn't want a magic-filled day?

0:54:060:54:11

I really didn't want magic at the wedding so I was a bit like,

0:54:110:54:13

"Grrr, I didn't want you to do that on our wedding day!

0:54:130:54:16

"I wanted it just to be relaxed and everyone enjoy it,

0:54:160:54:18

"not you working and trying to impress and everything."

0:54:180:54:21

But I married a magician so I think I've just got to live with it now!

0:54:210:54:24

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:54:240:54:26

And the magic's not over yet. Jack has another trick up his sleeve.

0:54:280:54:34

Well, actually, it's behind that door.

0:54:340:54:37

# Hello

0:54:370:54:39

# Is it me you're looking for? #

0:54:400:54:44

How can you put that into words? How can you explain that to people?

0:54:440:54:47

"Oh, we went to the World Buffet last night

0:54:470:54:49

"and we saw Robbie Williams and we saw Pavarotti and Jamiroquai."

0:54:490:54:55

# Cos I wonder where you are

0:54:560:55:00

# And I wonder what you do... #

0:55:000:55:03

It's not your traditional wedding. It's not your average wedding.

0:55:030:55:06

It's massive and it's gone down really well

0:55:060:55:09

and I don't know about being a magician,

0:55:090:55:12

I think we should go into wedding planning.

0:55:120:55:14

# Cos I wonder where you are... #

0:55:140:55:17

And what does the magic man himself think of his performance?

0:55:170:55:21

Even I'm shocked at what has just happened -

0:55:210:55:24

the biggest and best show I've ever been to.

0:55:240:55:27

I wanted the stately home, traditional,

0:55:270:55:30

country, simple, classy wedding.

0:55:300:55:33

It's gone kind of Las Vegas-y, cabaret show theme,

0:55:330:55:39

but he did it and I couldn't be more proud of you so I'll let you off.

0:55:390:55:44
