Ida reluctantly saws Olli in half

Here's a description of the contestant's attempt. Someone's probably working on collecting some images to illustrate it.

Before she had even opened the task, Ida dreaded the idea of whatever it was going to be since, as she states repeatedly, she hates magic and magicians. Her attempt is therefore saved for last, to maximise her annoyance and embarrassment. She decides that she is going to saw Olli in half, on the desk. She tries to gather her composure before giving her performance, welcoming the guest of honour: Atle Antonsen. There are two large pieces of cardboard stuck to the front of the desk, obscuring what is happening behind, but presumably meant to play the role of the box often seen in such magic tricks. Olli, playing her assistant (‘Olivèr’), claps and then hands her the saw, before lying down across the desk, and showing his arms and legs to confirm it’s real. Ida then begins sawing down the gap between the two pieces of cardboard, making her own sound effects while Olli can be heard shouting in mild pain. Olli’s head then pokes out from behind the right-hand edge of the cardboard, and Ida tears away the left-hand piece to reveal that there is nothing behind it. To her delight and surprise, she earns third place for her performance.
