This is exactly
the kind of magic set that Tommy would have been given
as a young lad. Wow. Oh, my goodness,
it's like discovering the secret, sort of figuring out
how these things work, and that's quite intoxicating and I could imagine that
that would be something
that would seduce Tommy. (CHUCKLES) The old ring trick. Could do with a bit of polish
on these, bit of Brasso
or something, bring these up. Right, these rings will drop apart
before your very eyes. Just a little shake,
and they drop all over the place. (LAUGHS) Eh, you can do it?
You have a go at it, then. Oh, this one's called
the enchanted ball bag. Bag, ball, ball, bag. Ball goes in the bag. You're talking about
a definite prelude to
"egg, bag, bag, egg". Egg, bag, bag, egg, egg, bag,
bag, egg, bag, egg, egg, bag. Watch very closely,
look, here we go,
in there like that, you see. (CHORTLING) (LAUGHING)
