Ha!
Well, I liked the last five minutes.
I fast forwarded a lot of the rest.
Derren Brown: Predicting the Lottery Page 18
I'm still totally non-plussed about this. He reveals the lottery numbers after the BBC have announced them, and then tells us how he did it. WTF, it's just a total non-event.
Heh. On a positive note, the next one does sound brilliant.
Half the population of the UK is rooted to the sofa most nights, so what's new?
But when they need another armful of Pringles and Tizer they can go and get them.
This time they will have to go hungry.
It's done by sublimial messaging. It's surprising effective. I have used sublimial CDs and stuff in the past and it can be very powerful....
....Scary freaky Robot Wizard!
I am exciteded. And a bit scared.

Is that including the Ents?

Do you only have one television in your house?
Quote: Tim Walker @ September 12 2009, 1:11 AM BSTI reckon that by the end of the series he will reveal all about the lottery "prediction", but in what way I'm not quite sure.
I reckon he'll resort to doing the elephant impression.
Quote: Kevin Murphy @ September 12 2009, 1:13 AM BSTUltimately he's going to have to either explain what happened to those white balls in the seconds between the draw finishing and his turning of the podium to reveal the balls (unlikely to happen) or he's going to have to pull off something so spectacular that we forget the disappointment of tonight.
(unlikely to happen)

That's what Annie Chapman would have said.
Quote: Renegade Carpark @ September 12 2009, 1:39 AM BSTI was going to explain how it was a rubbish trick, but I've changed my mind. How Derren Brown of me.
LOL.

Quote: Leevil @ September 12 2009, 2:56 AM BSTthere must be a young magician out there (lets call him Aaron), who has all the talent and abilities, but none of the financial backing to put on a show and make Big Ben disappear.
Heheh. You knows it.

As is his abbility to persuade men to have sex with some one who looks like a vampire serial killer, with a beard
I think it's time for some reasoned opinions here both on the prediction and on the revelation show and, having giving it some thought, on balance, by and large, taking all things into account, weighing each against the other,the irrefutable conclusion has to be that Derren Brown is a tosser who should not occupy one moment more of any sensible person's thoughts.
Can't be arsed reading though 18 pages of theories but in case nobody's seen this yet, it would appear to be the most plausible and well-thought-out answer yet. http://poeljames.googlepages.com/HowDerrenDidIt.html

Yup. That's the theory a few of us put forth in earlier pages.
Hats off to Derren, he's managed to make one of the most talked about TV shows of the year.
