BBC One - The Magicians, Series 2, Episode 2

Julia Bradbury, Craig Revel Horwood and David Hasselhoff join the acts in the studio.

Darren McMullen presents mind-blowing magic from some of the world's top magicians, with guests Julia Bradbury, Craig Revel Horwood and David Hasselhoff.

The Magicians returns with more celebrities and more jaw-dropping illusions. Darren McMullen hosts the second programme in a series of six, which sees comedy magician Pete Firman joined by Countryfile and Watchdog's Julia Bradbury; Barry and Stuart paired with Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood; and World Champion of Magic, Latimer with American icon David Hasselhoff. 

With each act performing four tricks, two of which are live, anything could happen. The stakes are high, as once all three acts have performed viewers get to vote for their favourite, with the losing team having to face a terrifying live forfeit. 

Highlights include a death-defying escape, some ninja magic and an awe-inspiring levitation, but who will have to face the forfeit once the votes have been counted?
