3/6. Close-up Magic. When David Blaine throws your chosen playing card through a plate glass window right before your eyes, or Paul Daniels produces a huge block of ice from beneath his hat, they are performing the oldest and purest from of magical illusion - sleight of hand. Tracing the long history of close-up magic, the programme recalls the routines of past masters before bringing the form up to date as Paul Zenon creates the biggest magic trick of its kind ever seen.

3/4. Sex. By the 18th century, there were two things on Venice's mind - art and sex. Casanova's A History of My Life detailed his erotic exploits, making him a celebrity overnight. And as sex tourists began using art as an excuse to visit Venice, Canaletto created views of the city that became the luxury postcards of the day. The climax of this pleasure seeking was the Carnival masked ball, when all barriers of class and wealth were broken down. But even as hedonism thrived, disaster was imminent.
