I was so disappointed that I wasn’t stuck to my sofa. I’ve been really looking forward to something like this, where I’d actually get to be hypnotised by Derren Brown and nothing happened at all. I’m glad he mentioned that it wouldn’t work on everyone, but I thought I ticked all the boxes: I’m creative, open, and I WANTED to be hypnotised!

Question: On Friday, if Derren does manage to stick us all to our Sofa’s, how are we going to be able to call the show, as some of us may not have a Cordless phone!! ) I know I just being silly!! Roll on Friday, my other half doesn’t belive he will stick him to our sofa!! I have told him to wait and see *he he he* )

Derren will show his true skill on Friday by making half his audience disappear.

I’ll admit i was slightly dissapointed with friday. Now i’m not here to complain but just to be honest.

But all in all I have no given up hope on this amazing entertainer I’m still very excited for the rest of the events which i am sure will be great hits that will go down in history.

Fridays Event was the best demonstration of misdirection TV has ever seen (imho) and I loved every minute. Sadly however, I think some people may have overlooked the most ingenious ‘reveal’ Derren has ever performed. Derren has managed to get the whole world talking about his lottery prediction. There are so many explanations out here that no one ‘really’ knows what’s real and what isn’t. Derren Brown….nobody does it better….take a bow.
@ Zac…..I would also like to believe that there is some truth in option 3 but it seems we are definitely in the minority. I’ve had countless arguments and discussions with people over the years on the subject of the ‘possibility’ of ball fixing. These discussions always end up with people telling me that I’m “completely mad”, this of course may be true, but I guess what other people think about me is really none of my business. On the other hand, I also believed that reality TV voting wasn’t quite as ‘accurate’ as everyone thought it was and look what happened there…

Steve says: A-Level maths defeats Deep Maths.

Steve maths, beyond what I have to do to pay my income taxes, defeats me ! Listen my grandfather, after watching the shows with me, said something wise to my cousin.

“Do you really think that man is really going to tell everyone how we was going to do it? He would have every lotto in the world after him and he would have to go in to hiding. You don’t ask what’s in Spam, hot dogs, or chili because you enjoy it so enjoy it and know your not going to win the lotto that easy.”

Now I have my grandfather asking when then next one comes on.

Well I have to say that I found myself feeling a little cheated by the Friday night show. Surely he hasn’t underestimated the audience!? I only hope that this isn’t a fall in quality but just a small part of something yet to come. I’m keeping the faith so to speak but think I may lose a little bit of whatever it is I have for Derren if this doesn’t turn out to be the case. With all the great things he’s amazed us with to date he has set his bar very high, I only hope that he hasn’t reached his peak or just tried to take it that step to far. At the moment I’m assuming and hoping for something more to come in a similar vain to the way he brings is stage shows together but time will tell. Either way good luck with the upcoming Events Derren. I’ll be on the edge of my seat. Hopefully stuck!
