Good Morning Britain viewers spot how illusionist Darcy Oake made Kate Garraway disappear
Britain’s Got Talent star Darcy Oake made Kate Garraway disappear on Good Morning Britain today.
But unfortunately for the magician, viewers rumbled his magic trick.
After removing her high heels, the GMB presenter climbed into a black box that was sitting on a table and had the lid put on the top.
Illusionist Darcy then removed the lid, and folded the box flat showing Kate was nowhere in sight.
However in the motion, Darcy accidentally revealed that not all was as it seemed, and there was actually a trap door under the box.
Viewers were quick to point out the error, and guessed he was using mirrors to make the table look like it was resting on the floor.
Darcy even made a point of saying no camera trickery was used, telling viewers: "Now for everyone watching at home I want to make it clear that this is live television, one continuous shot, the camera will not cut away."

Darcy first appeared on Britain's Got Talent in 2014, shocking the judges when he appeared to pull live doves out of nowhere.
He later returned for The Champions version last year, with a death-defying trick.
The 32-year-old locked himself in a box with his hands poking out through two holes while wearing handcuffs.
When the time ran down, the box exploded causing judges Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon to scream.
It was then revealed that he was actually standing behind the judges desk and wasn't hurt.
But his trick still failed to impress some viewers, with many saying it was obvious he had been using a body double.
