50/50 chance and Channel 4 would always pay the loss?
as I said, I'm just cynical

Yeah i know what you mean, I'm not saying it's all real but the roulette thing can't have been fake because he was wrong, but was one number away so the chances of that happening is not 50/50.

I'll go back to my old ways, with no punctuation if there is another smart arse comment like that.
And then just to rub it in the video at the end...
Did you notice the posters on the way in?
The video was just the icing on the cake.
Can't say I noticed the posters, no.

I think a lot of people don't understand Derren Brown. He's always stated that his act is a combination of showmanship, psychology etc.
Personally having read some of his books and knowing a bit about psychology i don't believe this bloke was in on it. Everyone else, yes but not him.
But i do have to agree that if he was such a numb nuts how did he get a honey like that

I'm sorry but i'm one who has to see to believe - things have to be proven beyond doubt and this programme was the biggest crock of shit i've ever seen honestly. Hidden speakers in his room to make him meet him in the garden in his 'sleep'! Putting a hand on his chest to make him instantly fall asleep? Leaving him on a 'train track' like that ?! The Jack in the boxes?
Absolute bollocks.

my friend got pulled out of the audience in one of his stage shows.. said she never usually beleives anything like that.. but she was told to write something on a bit of paper... and he wud guess it later on... he guessed right obviously but when she got back to her seat she realised the bit of paper had gone from her hand and she had her hand closed all the time she was on stage.. although its not magic its damn clever x
People seem to forget that he describes himself as an illusionist and not a magician. It's meant to be entertainment, not hocus pocus!

Surely not a hoax, as many on here seem to believe. Truth is, he would get found out. As DB says on his blog today:
I don’t use actors in that way, and it would be stupid to do so, as I’d have to find, kill or silence all their friends, families and acquaintances too.

So via a hidden speaker in his bedroom he spoak through it and got him to go out the house and meet him - he was never gonna suddenly wake up or think 'why the f*** is there a voice in my room' and Derren Brown was fine to risk blowing the whole show in case the geezer was fully awake and noticed there was a voice in his room?! And yes they would just take a bloke into a field and get him to stroke a crocodile in his 'sleep' and they were fine to risk the croc biting the blokes arm off? Imagine that - Oh sorry mate a croc bit your arm off - it was meant to be for a show and you were asleep?
Plus actor or no actor, I'm sure a nice 5 figure sum should keep the truth quiet for as long as it takes for people to forget the show...
It was an utter crock of shit.
Ha, he's on facebook and has Derren Brown as one of his likes -

Who's going to add him and interrogate him then?
