Now, the last time we saw this man, he'd been walking on water right outside

this window.

Apparently, a couple of weeks ago, unbeknownst to us, Dynamo took a trip to

studio to deliver a mysterious package.

I'm so excited. Can we open it?

Phil, look.

I am strong when I'm quiet.

I never let things go.

Right now, I'm gonna take you on a journey into my world.

In this episode, I head back to the UK and catch up with some old friends.

From the streets of London to

the set of this morning, I take my magic back to where it all began and make one

of the biggest predictions of my life.

My name's Stephen Frayne, but most people

call me Dynamore.

What's your name? I'm Jeff. Jeff.

And you are? I'm Emma. Emma. Good to meet you.

Jeff, are you wearing a watch?

Yeah. What time is it right now?

It is about 25 to 3.

25 to 3.

I want both of you to take your watch off.

And I want you to think of any other time, yeah, in the past, yeah, from

today. Both think of that right now.

Yeah. You got time in mind? Yeah.

Without looking at each other, I want you to set your watches to that time.

Don't let me see and don't let each other see what you're doing. Once you've

done that, cover the watch face with your hand.

Where's 918?

Show that.

918.

Show me yours.

918. Oh, my God.

And you both bought that time at random, yeah?

Yeah.

Oh,

my God.

It's freaking out.

On that face, huh?

Oh, God.

London seems to run at the speed of light, with millions of people caught up

a never -ending cycle.

In the chaos, it's easy to take the most important things for granted.

Health, happiness, and the people close to us.

How you doing, you all right?

What's your name? Crow. Crow, and?

Muffin. Muffin, and Dynamo. Where you from?

Denmark. Denmark.

New Mexico. New Mexico. I was going to say, there's a slightly different accent

there.

And how come you're in England?

We're having a date. Okay.

That's all right. You know, birthday.

Yeah. Seeing as you're here, let me do something special for you so you can

remember this moment. If you come together a little bit. All right.

This looks about right.

Got it.

I'm going to try this.

Come a little bit closer. Come in a little bit.

Hold right there.

Yeah, stay where you are.

Try this. Stay where you are.

Do you see that?

Watch.

Watch.

Oh,

God, no way.

Oh, it's horrible.

No way.

Wow. Oh, actually, how did he do that?

It was the day of the Euro 2012 quarterfinals, and Jalera had agreed to

to a secret location in North London.

I wanted to make a prediction on one of Europe's biggest sporting events.

This is Dynamos.

This is Jalera and we are... Show your face on camera.

No, it's too close, too close.

We are outside the shop and we're going to go into the shop and I'm going to

film what takes part in the shop.

Okay. What sort of shop? Can you elaborate on the shop that we're in?

I'm going to place a bet on the Euro.

It's the quarter -finals starting today. Okay.

I've got a good feeling about this. Okay.

So what I'm going to do is...

follow you and film the whole thing for my own personal usage.

Hold it down, huh? I can't fix my phone up.

It's cool. I'll just be holding the phone like I'm tweeting or something.

It's going to look all natural.

Alright.

So, yeah.

Here we go.

I hope.

I hope.

I hope he's dynamo.

Are you even allowed to pick up more? I'm sure you're banned from the casinos

and stuff. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Don't be too great with the camera in

there. Okay.

to beat Germany.

Did come through, Covey.

You've got to bring me in, you know that, right?

That afternoon, I'd arranged to meet one of the most prolific musicians in the

country, Damon Albarn.

I'd met Damon back in 2006 at a Gorillaz concert at the Harlem Apollo in New

York, and now he'd invited me to pass by his London studio to meet some of his

friends and family.

Do you have any money on you, any coins?

A few, yeah.

Can I borrow some?

Yeah.

Let's see.

This one first.

Do me a favor.

Just write your initials on there.

And then, do you want to take the two pence and put your initials on there as

well?

I'll take the coin.

So you can see this, right? See both coins?

Yeah.

That's kind

of

weird, right? Two objects have kind of come together. I want to take it a step

further. Because doing something like that with a small object is one thing.

I want to try it. You don't want to fuse me into something, do you? Not you,

don't worry.

I'm going to try something with myself and I need one of you to help me.

Like this.

Just do me a favour and just stand behind me right here.

You might not get to see this, but it might feel weird, yeah? Just turn

me and just close your eyes.

Hold your right hand out. I want you to push it against my back.

Yeah? Right, and on the count of three, yeah?

i'm gonna ask you to push forward don't push me over but just push hard into my

back right okay like you might not know this it's just gonna be all right

okay one two three push

harder

So strange.

Wow. What are you doing?

I don't really know what I witnessed, to be honest with you.

I mean, did you see?

There you go.

At one point, I was quite worried that Mrs. Hang was going to come right

through. And I was like, my God.

All right.

My God.

I don't know.

It's freaking.

It was the morning after the Euro Championship quarter -finals, and I had

a £1 bet on the winners.

I needed to make sure my bet was kept safe, and I knew the perfect place.

I called the producers of This Morning and told them I'd be delivering an

envelope for Philip Schofield.

I asked them to keep it locked away and not to tamper with it until I returned.

Package for Philip Schofield.

It's important he gets it.

It's delivered on today's date, 22nd of June, 2012.

I want to make sure it stays sealed until I see him next.

So if you can keep it safe and give it to him and tell him to keep it safe,

would be perfect.

It won't go straight to him, I promise.

Cool, thanks very much.

As the quarter -finals came to a close, eight teams became four and England

crashed out on penalties.

again.

The next day, I headed to Camden Town in North London.

How you doing ladies, alright?

What's your name?

Zara.

Elizabeth.

Puzzles. Do you like puzzles?

Yeah.

Let's see.

Have you ever done the Rubik's Cube before?

I've tried it. You've done one side. You've done one side. It's hard, isn't

Yeah. Yeah.

See what?

I'll take this one.

Just mix that up for me.

Give it a real good mix up.

I'm doing it.

Give it now.

Yeah, that is pretty mixed up.

Roughly, how long do you think it'll take to solve that?

Depends who it is. Depends who it is? Yeah.

All right. How long do you think it'll take me to solve it?

A minute. A minute?

That's optimistic.

Watch this.

It happens.

What?

What's your name?

Damiano. Damiano?

Yeah. From Italy.

Andrea. Andrea.

Both from Italy?

No, I'm from Hungary.

From Hungary? Hungary and Italy?

Yes. How did you meet?

Amsterdam.

Wow.

What's this?

Oh, it's just something like for birthdays.

Like a charity bracelet?

Yeah. Can it come off?

Yeah, of course. Can I have a look at it? Yeah.

Hmm, okay.

Don't break it, yeah?

I'll try not to. Excuse me.

Can I borrow your scissors?

Thank you.

I won't break it, but if I give you the scissors, do you want to just cut it

right there? Oh, great.

Would you hold this for one second?

And put your hands together like this. Yeah?

A little bit lower.

Watch.

No way.

Wow. Muchas gracias.

Thank you very much.

Excuse me.

My God.

Where did it go? Where?

Okay, where is it gone?

Thank you. Do you want to put it back?

For me, magic is all about making a connection.

Bringing people together in a moment that creates a lasting memory.

My grandpa used to say that there's no such thing as a coincidence.

Everything happens for a reason.

I headed down to a local pub to see if I could test this theory.

I've got a deck of cards for each of you.

John, you can have the blue cards.

Are they all different?

And red cards for you.

All different? Yeah.

I'll let you go first.

Just put your finger on the back of any card that you like.

Don't let me influence you.

Are you sure that's the card you want?

I'll give you one chance to change your mind. Do you want to change your mind?

Okay.

That card right there.

I'm just going to slide it forward. Don't look at it yet.

Keep it in front of you like that.

Now it's your turn.

Literally put your finger on the back of any card exactly the same way.

Are you sure you want that one?

Okay. Come on, anyone.

Turn him over.

That is random.

You know what they say?

Like father, like son.

What's your name?

Siobhan. Siobhan, nice to meet you.

Catherine. Catherine, I'm Dynamo. I want to try something.

Are they all different?

Yeah. I want you to think of a card. Yeah.

I want you to think of a number between 1 and 52.

Okay. Yeah?

Just hold your hand up.

We'll use both hands, actually. Yeah, perfect.

Let's put them there.

Name the number out loud.

Three. Number three?

Yeah. Yeah? Uh -huh.

Do you want to change your mind on that number?

No. Okay. Look at this.

So, one, two, three.

This is the third card, right? Yeah. You were thinking of a card. Yeah.

Name it out loud.

Five of spades.

Oh, my God. I don't believe it.

No.

How are you doing? What's your name? Hi, I'm Laura.

Laura. Nice to meet you.

And? Fronte.

Fronte. Where are you girls from?

I'm from Middlesbrough. Middlesbrough. Manchester.

Manchester. Okay. I'm Bradford.

So, kind of closer to you, I think. Yeah, pretty close. So, I've got a pack

cards here.

They're all different.

Yeah. Yeah?

I'm going to give some cards to you, and then some for you. Okay.

We'll start with you, Bronte. Just touch the back of any card.

This one right here, yeah?

I don't want you to see it, yeah? I just want you to remember that card.

Got it?

Just keep them between your hands like this.

Same thing with you.

Just touch the back of any card.

This one right here.

I don't want you to see this one.

You got it?

And just put them between your hands like this.

Both of you, I want you to think of the card that you just collected.

Say it over and over in your mind.

And on the count of three, name that card out loud.

One, two, three.

Seven of hearts.

What was it?

Are you serious?

Hold on one second. You said seven of hearts. You said seven of hearts. Yeah?

Yeah.

the seven of hearts in there, right?

There's no seven of hearts in here because it's actually in

your pocket.

Which is impossible, right? Take a look.

Oh my God.

I have no idea how he did it. I don't know how he did it at all.

It was amazing because obviously I've just been stood here with my coat on and

then... And he didn't touch us.

He didn't touch us.

I don't understand how he did it.

The funny thing about coincidence is the more you think about it, the more you

notice it.

Talk of the devil and he will appear.

How you doing, y 'all?

Cool. How you doing? What's your name?

Hello.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. How you doing? You all right? Hi, nice to meet you.

I'm Bobbie. Bobbie.

Can I sit there?

Yeah.

Oh my god.

I watched you like, a few days ago.

No, I'm joking.

You're going to see it in real life now.

Oh my god.

Have you all got phones on you? Yeah.

You need to pull them out. Pull up the table.

We'll try something.

This is your phone, yeah? Yeah. Try something with you. Okay.

I want you just to think of somebody, right, who's not here now.

But it was in your phone, yeah?

Just put your hand on top of your phone.

Concentrate on that person.

Oh my god.

My hand was tingling like crazy.

My fingers were twitching.

I don't know.

It's freaky.

Wow.

Oh,

my God.

Oh,

my God. Oh, my God. I've got a plan. It could potentially go wrong. It's

unbelievable, isn't it?

The semi -finals. Spain beat Portugal on penalties.

and the Italians beat a strong German side to win their place in the final.

The art of magic is all about precision and timing.

I wanted to test them with the skills I'd learnt over the years, so I headed

a bar in West London to put on a small demonstration.

I've been working on my card skills for years, and I can tell what card

someone's thinking of, you know, and I can kind of do, you know, crazy shuffles

like this.

But the one thing that I'm always trying to master, and my friends are always

challenging me, is throwing cards at, you know, high speeds that are super

accurate. It's like, you know, my friends are always saying, oh, you know,

that guy over there.

So to begin with, I'm going to take a piece of newspaper.

And would you mind helping me?

Yeah, you go that side.

Yeah, because if you stand right there, then it might hit you.

Like that.

You hold that. You hold the bottom.

And then if you hold this side here, yeah?

They're exactly the same way.

And if I was to give you a card, for example, like, it's not that difficult,

I want you to just throw it at the newspaper, yeah?

Exactly.

So you see, throwing cards is not the easiest thing in the world, right?

I've been working on it for a while.

Hold him really tight.

Oh!

See that?

Right through.

A newspaper, to be honest, is quite a big

object. You know, you've got quite a big target.

And it's paper, so it's not the strongest thing in the world. So I'm

you know, up the stakes a little bit.

So get rid of this.

Can we, um, have you got, like, a wine glass?

Yeah.

I'm going to use your book over here. Is that all right? Yeah. So if I just, um,

put that right there.

I'm going to try and hit the wine glass.

Get in the class, there we go.

I was

mad. You see it for real and it's phenomenal.

I've been a supporter of the Teenage Cancer Trust for years.

Visiting the wards is a truly inspirational experience and it's

see the difference they make to young people suffering with the disease.

How long have you been doing this magic stuff for?

I've been doing it since I was like 11.

My grandpa showed me some stuff.

I'll give it a shuffle, yeah, like this.

Whoa!

Thank you.

Later that afternoon, I headed over to Hopefield Animal Sanctuary in Essex,

which looks after a wide range of abandoned animals.

I came here last year with Leona Lewis, who is one of the sanctuary's patrons.

And I always like to pass through when I'm in the area.

Ah, look.

It's Maximus.

Oh, wait a minute. Which one do you think is Maximus? Do you think it's this

geezer or this geezer?

I wouldn't mess with either of them.

Neither.

Neither.

Chickens.

Which one's your favourite?

Uh, that one. That one there.

Looks a bit different.

Hello.

Looks like throwing, um, players.

What do you think?

Has any of you got any coins?

Yeah, yeah.

£10, £20, copper.

Can I take that £20?

What?

I'm going to write my signature on here. Right.

Try anyway, it's much more.

So, dynamo there.

See that? Yeah.

Yeah. And then if you light your signature on the back.

Like a tinny pill, yeah?

Yeah. Oh, yeah. This is our signature over here.

See that?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Do me a favour.

Just hold on to my wrist.

Hold it tight, yeah?

Right.

Gone. Where's that gone?

Where's that gone?

See all the chickens in here? Yeah.

Have any of them laid any eggs in the coop? Yeah.

Can I have a look?

Three.

Three eggs, yeah? Yeah.

Do you want to come with me?

Come on, close it quickly so we can't get out.

Make sure you hold it closed, yeah?

Just point to any egg.

This one?

Yeah.

You like that? You go first.

This is the egg, yeah?

That you chose, right?

And you signed the coin.

I just said that would be in it.

Is that your coin?

Yeah.

Jack, can you say?

Bloody hell.

It's unbelievable, isn't it?

How's everyone doing? You alright? Yeah, fine.

What's your name is? Nina. Nina.

Sean.

Emily. Louise.

I'm Dynamo.

What's this on your bag?

Scarf. Scarf. Is it part of the bag or has it come off?

Yeah, it's come off.

Can

someone

get me a broom as well?

Is there one on that handle over there?

Oh,

there we go.

Perfect.

So... Hold it by the top.

Hold it by the top? Yes.

It's not going to go through there, is it?

What? The soap.

Oh, no.

No, you didn't do just what I just did.

How did you do that?

Well.

Thank you.

I'm trying to figure out.

I even thought it might be the broom or... But I was gripping it really hard

like that. Did you move at all? No, I didn't. No, I didn't move at all. I just

held it like that.

He blows your mind, doesn't he?

He's like a little alien.

Before I left, I brought everyone together to show them one last thing.

Do it there, I want to try something.

Can't see me, yeah?

What?

See my feet, boo.

Oh!

Yeah.

No way.

Oh my god!

Sorry. That is ridiculous.

That just freaks me out.

No, that's just wrong.

Your brain starts to try and figure out how we did it. Card trick, it might be

sleight of hand.

There's no way, shape or form that walking through steel is sleight of

That's it, in a nutshell.

Thank you very much. Thank you very, very much.

The Euro

2012

final. Spain dominate from the start to win 4 -0 and become the champions of

Europe.

It was the day after the Euro 2012 finals, and I'd been invited on to this

morning. I'll take you through to that shop first, if that's alright.

Chat shows always make me a little nervous, and this was no exception.

Good luck with that. Now, the last time we saw this

man, he'd been walking on water right at... Outside this window.

Now, apparently a couple of weeks ago, unbeknownst to us, Dynamo took a trip to

our studio to deliver a mysterious package to Brett.

Brett? Brett knew about this. He sealed it, right? He sealed it inside a case.

Absolutely. And that was the 22nd of June.

Yeah, so almost two weeks ago, right? Two weeks ago. A week ago last Friday.

Yeah. Now, inside there is actually a gift for a charity that I've done a lot

work with over the years, Cometini Age Cancer Trust. So whatever is in here is

present for them?

Yeah, it's a present for them.

But it's live TV, so, you know, what I've got planned could potentially go

wrong. I'm so excited. Can we open it? Go for it.

I feel this. I've got an envelope.

The betting slip.

Phil, look.

It says you. You didn't win.

It's the fillet. Mm -hmm.

And it's signed.

There's the date on the back.

There's a betting slip right there.

And if you want to look down at the winner at the bottom, obviously the

was yesterday, Spain by two or more goals.

And everyone who watched knows that it was 4 -0 for Spain. What are your odds?

The odds are actually 10 ,000 to 1. Now, to get it to be that, I had to do an

accumulator bet.

Because not only did I bet on the winner, but I also bet on the outcome of

match in the quarter -finals. You can see there, Portugal, Germany, Spain,

off through, Italy on penalties, the semi -final, Spain.

to win on penalties against Italy. Final winner, Spain.

So that's... Two or more goals.

That's £10 ,000.

£10 ,000.

Can I just point out, though, that that does say to Phil on there.

The envelope, yeah. So, contractually, I think... I think everyone at home will

agree that Phil should give it to the... I think you're absolutely right.

That is just the incredible round of applause, because that's just

Let's just hand that... Over there.

There we go. Right, that's yours.

Unbelievable. £10 ,000, that bit of paper.

Just incredible.

B -roll.

Brilliant.

Amazing. That's unbelievable.

Because you've done the whole thing as well.

Yeah.

Donovan just turned up. It was about 10 o 'clock in the morning. Gave me this

red envelope, which is now obviously open. The kids told us to fill it for a

couple of weeks' time. I don't know when I'll be back. It's very mysterious.

So I put it in there, and it's been locked in my cupboard ever since. No

seen it until today, so we opened it the first thing today.

There's no way anyone could have even touched it. I had it locked in my

cupboard. Essentially, it was double locked. So it was locked in the suitcase

and locked in my cupboard upstairs in my desk.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight,

nine and ten. Do you want me to roll them up for you? Yes, please. One sec.

Congratulations,

thank you. Cool, thanks very much. You're welcome, have a lovely day.

Thanks, you too.

Yeah,

it's Dynamo.

I've put a little bit on.

the other week and kind of came through.

So I've kind of got the... Got it with you?

Got it with me and it's... Oh, my goodness.

So there's a... Wow!

Thank you so much. This is going to help us support so many more young people

with cancer. Absolutely amazing. Thank you very much. Thank you very, very

Absolutely amazing.

Thank you, Dynamo.

Thank you.

The idea that £1 could result in £10 ,000 is kind of just beyond my

I can't imagine what we might be able to do in the future.

Leaving the Teenage Cancer Trust, I started to think about the incredible

journey I'd taken over the last six months.

Despite the ups and downs, I felt like the luckiest man alive and I knew that I

would never take the gift my grandfather had passed down to me for granted.

When I was a kid, I used to dream about a place where anything was possible.

A world where I could do anything and be anything I wanted to be.

And nothing could hold me back.

So I became a magician.

A master of the impossible.

And somehow, my dream came true.

Yeah, hello everyone. My name's Dynamo. I'm a magician.

I'm a bastard, which is where we are now.

This guy must be a...

Alien or so it is.

Awesome.

You gotta be kidding me, man.

Whoa!

I know the old thing, they only come in small packages.

God, I can do this!

It's freaking!

How did he do that?

No way!

Bloody hell.

Thank you very much.

I can imagine what we might be able to do in the future.
