Aired: 6/6/2015

Mel Giedroyc is our guide though another collection of clips from the worlds of magic, stunts and pranks. There's animal magic from a cat on a magic carpet and a tortoise doing the classic cup and ball trick, a terrified Nicole Scherzinger is driven at breakneck speed along a twisty road by a mind reader who can't see where he's going, there's a trick in a working office when a magician disappears into a photocopier, and this week the show's own viewers dazzle us with their magic powers - floating satsumas, showing just how easy it is to escape from a straitjacket, levitating a banknote, and demonstrating that hypnotism doesn't always go to plan. Some of the very best in magic is combined with a few of those moments the performer would much rather forget. And the answer to our weekly question 'Where on Earth is Debbie McGee?' has an extra-terrestrial answer.

Now You See It has scoured the archives to bring you another collection of some of the world's best illusions, alongside a few moments the magicians might wish had never been caught on camera. There's footage of bewildering stunts, cheeky camera tricks, bizarre performances and talented pets mixed in with the magic. See someone floating in mid-air between two four-storey buildings, beer being poured from a tablet computer, a man jumping off a moving speedboat to catch a frisbee, and find out how a Star Trek transporter illusion is actually done. Mel Giedroyc guides us through the clips and remembers to ask that most crucial of questions, 'Where on Earth is Debbie McGee?'.

Throw in a couple of mishaps with yo-yos and a reminder of why you should never give your phone to a magician, with Mel Giedroyc's cheeky commentary, and you've got that Now You See It mix of the good, the bad and the funny.
