00:00The odds of being born with albinism is 1 in 20,000 people.
00:06I am one of those 1 in 20,000 people,
00:10and I believe this gives me a special ability to connect with people.
00:14You see, I've lived in a body that made the world stop and stare,
00:19and the world didn't quite know what to make of me.
00:22But there was one person who never saw me that way.
00:25My mother.
00:28Tonight, I'd like to share one of her lessons with one very special person.
00:33But first, I have to find them.
00:36Could everybody place your hand up like this?
00:39You can join in at home.
00:42Follow along with me.
00:43Thumbs up.
00:46Thumbs down.
00:48Open palm.
00:51OK sign.
00:52Place it here on your chin.
00:57Your chin is here.
01:01Simon, you've got it right.
01:03You'll be perfect.
01:05Now, we all have a childhood memory of someone that had a profound impact on us when we were kids.
01:12Tonight, Simon, I'd like you to go back to when you were a young boy
01:15and think of a memory that had a profound impact on your life.
01:20I want you to think of a name that you associate with this memory.
01:24Think of someone nobody could know.
01:29Hang on.
01:30OK, got it.
01:31Excellent.
01:34Simon, lock eyes with me.
01:37They say the eyes are the windows to the soul.
01:40And right now, I'm seeing into your soul.
01:45Just close those eyes.
01:47I want you now to imagine, Simon, that we're connecting through the power of our imaginations.
01:53Imagine sending that name from your mind to mine.
02:05OK, stop.
02:07Open those eyes.
02:08In a nice, clear voice, what was the first letter of the name you were thinking of?
02:16W.
02:24That was out.
02:29How about we take this to the next level?
02:32Simon, don't say anything out loud, but I want you to think of an object that you associate with this
02:38memory.
02:39One word.
02:40A word that I couldn't possibly know.
02:43Now, just so we can confirm this at the end, could you write that down on the piece of paper
02:47in front of you
02:48and fold it up and keep it in your hand?
02:51Yeah.
02:51Now, there's no possible way I could know what this word is.
02:54Because this hasn't been set up beforehand, and Simon and I haven't met before tonight.
03:01That's true.
03:02We're good.
03:04Look at me.
03:05Close your eyes.
03:12Open your eyes.
03:14Simon, do these numbers mean anything to you?
03:19No.
03:21Well, they do to me.
03:26Amanda, in front of you is my old school bag.
03:28Could you reach in, please, and take out the objects from inside?
03:31Amongst all of my stuff is a small pocket dictionary.
03:37Dictionary?
03:37You see, when I was around eight years old, I used to carry it everywhere I went.
03:43Not because I loved homework, or to impress anyone.
03:47It was my shield.
03:50You see, when the other kids would ask why my skin was so pale,
03:54or why my eyes looked strange in the light,
03:56I didn't always have the words.
03:59So I'd search for them, hidden amongst those tiny pages.
04:04Simon, close your eyes for me,
04:06and think of that one word you wrote down earlier,
04:09over and over again, inside your mind.
04:12Amanda, could I ask you to pick up the dictionary, please?
04:15Yes.
04:16And turn to page 55.
04:20Yes.
04:21The next number, Amanda, is one.
04:24Could you place your finger on the first column of that page?
04:28Yes.
04:28And the last number is seven.
04:31Can you count down seven bold words,
04:34and place your finger just below the seventh bold word from the top?
04:39Now, Simon's holding on to something inside his mind.
04:43Don't say that word yet.
04:45Could I ask who was W?
04:47Mr. Wilson.
04:49Mr. Wilson.
04:49But what was this memory you were thinking of?
04:52When I was at my first school,
04:56we were told by my headmaster
05:01about riding a bike down a hill.
05:07What was the word you were thinking of?
05:10Bicycle.
05:13What?
05:14Oh, open your eyes.
05:31You see, tonight's lesson is this.
05:34No matter what barriers you face in life,
05:37if you can see it in your imagination,
05:38you can be anything.
05:41Thank you so much.
06:02That's spooky.
06:04That is unbelievable.
06:06I don't think we've ever been all surprised like that,
06:09because who knows what goes on in that mind.
06:13I remember being at school,
06:16and the headmaster was called Mr. Wilson,
06:18and he told us,
06:19you've got to hang on to the handlebars on your bike.
06:23No one's going to believe that.
06:25They're not going to believe it.
06:26I swear on my life,
06:28that's it.
06:29Yeah, your whole presentation was so lovely.
06:32That was brilliant.
06:33That's going to bother us for ages now, isn't it?
06:36Trying to work out how you did it.
06:37What can I say?
06:39It's impressive.
06:40You have superpowers, bro.
06:43I actually think you look like a movie star.
06:46You look amazing, brother.
06:48That's sexy.
06:50You'll love that.
06:51I spent 10 years dying my hair in the big time,
06:54because I was uncomfortable in the skin I was.
06:56To change my mindset,
06:57to stand in front of the world,
06:59so if I can do that,
07:00anything in your imagination can help.
07:05I would love an act like this
07:07to be on the Royal Variety Performance.
07:10So it's a yes from me.
07:12I'm saying yes.
07:14Uh, yes.
07:16I have no idea what just happened.
07:19That was incredible.
07:20You're incredible.
07:21Four yeses.
07:29Hi.
07:30What's your name and where are you from?
07:32My name is Mark and I'm from North London.
07:34Brilliant.
07:36And Mark, how old are you?
07:39I'm 46.
07:40Who have you brought with you today?
07:41My wife.
07:42She is somewhere in the audience.
07:43Brilliant.
07:44There she is.
07:45My daughter is here,
07:46but she's only two years old,
07:48so she's, um,
07:49watching Peppa Pig somewhere or something,
07:51probably.
07:52Are you a magician?
07:53I am indeed, yeah.
07:54And is that how you make a living?
07:55I've done a lot of jobs,
07:56not necessarily living.
07:58Okay.
07:58There's the good and the bad.
08:00All the best of luck.
08:01Thank you very much indeed.
08:03Can I join you?
08:05Okay.
08:06I've always wondered,
08:08what would it be like to experience real magic?
08:11Well, two years ago,
08:11I did and it changed me and my life forever.
08:17Amanda.
08:18Yes.
08:18I'm going to ask you to give this Rubik's Cube a mix for me.
08:21Can you keep on mixing until I come back to you?
08:23Yes.
08:24David,
08:26inside this box are 25 different colored crayons.
08:30I'm going to give these a mix.
08:32And David,
08:33you're going to choose one,
08:34but without looking.
08:36Just grab one at random.
08:38Hold it in your hand,
08:39David,
08:39but don't look at it.
08:40Keep it hidden.
08:42Alicia,
08:43these cards belong to my daughter.
08:45It's important to see that all the cards are different.
08:48Yep.
08:48I'm going to ask you to just touch the back of anyone.
08:51It doesn't matter which,
08:52but what is very,
08:53very important is that I don't do any sleight of hand.
08:56So I'll spread the cards like this.
08:58Point to anyone that you like.
09:00Wow.
09:01Right down the end.
09:03Can you hide out your hand for me?
09:05I'm going to place that card on the palm of your hand.
09:07Genuinely the card that you touch.
09:08Is that okay?
09:09Yes.
09:10Lovely.
09:11Amanda.
09:12Yes.
09:12You have mixed that cube.
09:13Yes.
09:14Into a completely unique pattern.
09:17Yes.
09:17Fair to say?
09:18Uh-huh.
09:18We'll get back to that in a moment.
09:22Simon.
09:22Mm-hmm.
09:24I'm going to ask you to hold this pen in your right hand right here.
09:29Perfect.
09:30You lower your wrist down, get comfortable.
09:32Yeah.
09:32Lovely.
09:33This book belongs to my wife.
09:35There are over 600 pages, around about 200,000 words in the book.
09:39Alicia, can I ask you to close your eyes for a moment?
09:42And just say the word stop.
09:45Stop.
09:46Simon, I'm going to hold the book above your pen.
09:49Mm-hmm.
09:49Amanda, can you say the word stop as I do this?
09:52Stop.
09:53Simon, can you bring the pen up to the page without looking and draw a small circle the
09:57size of a five-pence piece?
09:58You don't have to be precise.
10:00I'm going to place the book down in front of you here, Simon.
10:03I'll take the pen.
10:04Can you do me a favor, lift up the book, don't show me, but have a look at where you've
10:09drawn that circle.
10:10Can you confirm that there is a word or words that you can see within that circle?
10:14Yeah.
10:15Yeah?
10:16There is?
10:17Wonderful.
10:17It's a good start.
10:19David, can you tell us what color crayon do you have?
10:23Red.
10:24The red crayon.
10:26Alicia, for the first time, what card did you choose?
10:29Ah, puppet penguin.
10:30The puppet penguin.
10:32Amanda, very carefully, can you just lift off the box so we can see the pattern that
10:37you've created on the very top of that Rubik's Cube?
10:41Now, if I told you that I knew this exact outcome yesterday, a week ago, or a month ago,
10:48you'd say, well, that would have to be magic.
10:50Some people would.
10:51I would.
10:52But it's not real magic.
10:57It's interesting, intriguing, maybe clever.
11:01Some might even say amazing.
11:02But it's not real magic.
11:04See, for me, real magic changed two years ago.
11:11This, to me, is real magic.
11:19Oh, my God.
11:50Oh, my God.
11:53Oh, my God.
11:58Oh, my God.
12:30Oh, my God.
12:33Oh, my God.
12:45And Simon, that leaves just you.
12:50For the very first time, Simon, what is the word that you circled?
12:55Hat.
12:56Hat.
12:56H-A-T.
12:57Yeah.
12:58Simon, this is for you.
13:07Isabella, you beautiful little girl.
13:10If Daddy was going to do Britain's Got Talent in two years from now, what random word do you think
13:15Simon would think of?
13:17Hat.

27:29Make sure that everything is fair
27:30And I will tell you what will happen in just a moment
27:32Okay
27:33In a moment, Amelie will get inside the tank
27:36Everybody knows that every single banknote
27:38Has a unique serial number
27:40And that's exactly what she wants to write down
27:43Underwater with her lipstick
27:45The serial number on the bill in your hand
27:49Amelie
27:50Are you ready to do this?
27:55Hand me the bill
28:03She's writing down
28:05Penn, can you read the first two letters?
28:07A
28:08D
28:08A D
28:10Now she's writing down the numbers
28:13Penn, can you do me a favor?
28:16Sure
28:16Can you confirm that the serial number on your bill is
28:20A D 0 1 5 2 5 7 9
28:26Yes
28:27Look what she wrote
28:28A D 0 1 5 2 5 7 9
28:36In fact, Andrew and I are so in tune with each other
28:39Even though we went shopping separately for today's audition
28:42We both ended up buying the same camouflage t-shirts
28:45Let's show you what we do
28:48Amanda
28:48I'll take you have your phone on you
28:50Yes, I do actually
28:51Oh, if you stand here for me
28:53Amanda, I'd like you to scroll through your contact list
28:55And stop on somebody at random
28:59Okay
29:00Look at this person's last three digits of their phone number
29:03Yeah
29:03Once you've got that in your mind
29:05Lock the phone and put your phone on the desk
29:09Just say this person's name over and over again in your mind
29:12I really hope we get this
29:14And even though you picked this person you had a free choice
29:16Is that right?
29:18Andrew
29:23Amanda in a loud clear voice what are the three numbers you're thinking of?
29:274 1 5 4 1 5
29:30That's exactly what I've got
29:32Thank you
29:36Of course, Amanda, this is a contact in your phone
29:44In a loud clear voice whose number is this?
29:48My sister Debbie
29:49Debbie
29:52That's what I've got
29:57Amanda thank you so much please take a seat

30:15Love you Simon
30:18Go this side of the stage for us
30:19Thank you
30:20Simon would you hold that please
30:22We're gonna go on an imaginary journey in your mind
30:25Oh don't
30:26Oh god
30:26Don't go there
30:27Don't go there
30:28Oh dear
30:29I'd like you to imagine that you're standing outside a house
30:32You look at the door and you see a number on the door
30:34Any number you like Simon please write it down
30:43Just try to say that number over and over again in your mind
30:48You now go into this imaginary house and you go into a living room
30:52You look at the wall of the living room and you see a color painted on the walls
30:56Please write it down
31:02Just imagine that color all around us now
31:05You're focused on it right
31:06And even though you picked that color you could have had anyone
31:09You now go into the kitchen
31:11You look over at the wall and you see a celebrity calendar
31:14It could be anyone you like Simon
31:23Now although you picked this person that was a free choice
31:26You know that right you know that and even though you picked this person you have the choice of thousands
31:33Andrew
31:39I am getting something
31:43Simon was asked to imagine he was standing in front of a house
31:46He imagined a door he imagined a number
31:50Simon you then walked into the house you looked at a room that was in a single color
31:56Then you're asked to think of a celebrity
32:00Anyone in the world
32:03Simon I believe you're thinking 717 you're thinking of the color turquoise you're thinking of sir roger moore
32:11Mayor ladies and gentlemen
32:14Exactly the number 717
32:16He thought of turquoise you chose what you're more Simon. Thank you so much
