‘Tis indeed. And it proves I have gone mad and am peering into the Brown Abyss.

Oh why am I so oft tempted towards the double entendre?

Thank you for that CJ. I can sleep tonight. Maybe.

And an anagram of ‘Its Phoney Viewers ‘

(mind you its an anagram of ‘Erosive When Tipsy’ aswell so may mean nothing at all!)

” ‘Hypnotise Viewers’ is an anagram of ‘Piss With Everyone’ “. I forgot Francis’s comment too. Think the H V thing is simply this – you cheeky monkeys. But then I have been known to be wrong. Often.

I think I might shower now and come off the Derren Brown nipple for a while… Oh what a lovely thought…

Not being a Harry Potter fan, I guess I wouldn’t know the basis. Found this on the web, so I guess I read into it too much.

I’ll still look for it. It was a psi and chi I think and the numbers 390. I have scribblings of it on a piece of paper. It was on a post and Derren was pulling a face and it said something like ‘Have you seen this Wizard?’ Might be nothing to do with owt?

@JayKay – what’s the Derren Wizard poster? Greek letters? I’ve missed that!

I had wondered if they could be roman numerals, but only V works. Unless A=1, B=2, C=3 [..] H=8 therefore H=D+D, which would make the letters: 5, 500+500… think that’s a blind alley though.

My instinct says the spaces must be part of it… somehow…

Ooh, lost half a sentence there. ‘Off my fat butt and get out!’ Must satisfy the old obsessive compulsive and tidy it up.

Are we reading too much into this? Are we the ones who are stucktomysofa.com? I know I was last night! Remember ‘misdirection?’ As is stated in the ‘upside down’ video to enter the competition – maybe the answer is more straightforward. Maybe it’s just to draw our attention to what’s to happen; to prime us? Or to lead us to believe that’s what’s to happen; we must believe we’re being hypnotised?

Or maybe it is to do with the Enigma machines after all? Maybe it’s a simple (though difficult enough for me and my non-mathematical brain) pair-wise solution; that h=v on a qwerty keyboard? That each letter moves on 7 spaces; H becomes V? Or maybe we missed some Caps somewhere..?

What about the Derren Wizard poster? It has numbers and Greek letters? Must find… Must get off my fat but
