i just want to say a big thank you to derren brown. my sister and i went to see him at the mayflower last night, not only was his show amazing, but he also took time out of his own schedule to meet and greet his fans. it wasnt just a case of signing the first few books handed to him, he gave every fan an opportunity for a photo and signature, answered questions, gave advice and even spoke to a fan on the phone. thank you so much derren x x

Without wishing to sound like a groupie or fanatic:
the creative output of Mr Brown and co (IMHO) compares favourably to any other person or people in the recent history of television and stage.
The depth of preperation and understanding!
The lasting mystery!
Mr Brown’s obvious charisma and kindness!
Sorry, had to get it off my chest.
As an amateur magician (amateur=lover of the art, but not very good really) the effects are inspiring.
I have added some mentalism to my double lift effect and it is suddenly a killer trick!
I merely imitate where others innovate…
Sorry, for being soft, but credit where it is due. Many others feel like me.
Houdini would have approved.
Penn and Teller are great, David Blaine has a great sleight, but you take the twice-cooked unleavened cake.

Time to hunt the 2nd hand stores for a solid book shelf. Re-watched the Heist this morning. Fab!
