Episode 5 of 6, The Magicians, Series 2

Duration: 1 hour, 15 minutes

The Magicians returns with more mind-bending magic. Twisted tricksters Barry and Stuart are joined by MasterChef judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace; comedy magician Pete Firman is paired with choreographer and presenter Arlene Phillips; and world champion of magic, Latimer, is with A Question of Sport captain Phil Tufnell.

Each celebrity and their magical mentor perform four spectacular illusions, two of which are live. With the viewers at home voting for their favourite act, the teams must do all they can to impress; the act with the fewest votes faces a terrifying live forfeit.

From the spectacular to the stomach-churning, each act goes all-out to astonish and amaze. But who will be safe, and who will have to face the death-defying forfeit?
