Cut 1-inch from the bottom of each of the ladyfingers.  Arrange cookies, cut side down, around the side of a 9-inch springform pan.  Place remaining ladyfingers over the bottom of the pan; set aside.

While the gelatin sets, prepare the berry gelatin as directed on package, speed-set method, using the remaining 3/4 cup of the boiling water.  Remove unmelted ice cubes and fold in the remaining cup of whipped topping.  Gently spoon this mixture over the lemon layer.
