Derek Acorah to conduct Michael Jackson Séance for Sky
Yes indeedy. You heard it here first. Unless you read Broadcast.
Can you honestly imagine anything – anything – more anus-invertingly unpalatable than this? I hate myself for drawing attention to it.
“The shows were ordered by Sky 1 HD commissioning editor Clare Hollywood, who will also executive produce. Steve Regan and Melanie Leach exec produce for Twofour.”
And we salute them for it.
So proud to be in telly.

disgusting
At first I thought this was some sort of wind up. Jeepers is all I can come up with, and sheesh.
To even have Derrick on the tele is bad enough, but that twat is going to ask “sam” his imaginary Ethiopian friend to look out for Jacko. Priceless!!!
AHHHHHH WTF could this b any less respectful????
I’m sorry but Acorah??? I’d b laughing if i found this more amusing than i did disgusting. I’m not even much of a Michael Jackson fan but this really irritates me.
mmm let me think, this is wat the evening will consist of: Derek will sit in a darkened room with a number of people with his greasy hair scraped bak as usual and say “Oh yes here he is, hello Michael, yes he’s trying to tell me something, something important… yes he loves u and he doesn’t want u 2 b upset.” he’ll then add in some impressive sounding padding by cold reading the poor buggers who are present.
…again i apologise i’m not usually this passionate about this kind of thing… and i just realise i sound really up myself in this comment… lol. But still, Ahhhh!!
Ehehehe ….cool … Don’t forget you use the same stuff for your series. Without that stuff .. no series. It’s quite harmless I think. If they don’t do it, someone else will, or already does (MJ probably got already pretty sick from all this calls from below … so he wont be coming through I think and the psychics will make up there stuff as usual, from my point of view that is (making up stuff).
Say, what if you died all of a sudden and discovered that it indeed is possible to speak from the other sides … but only if you’d been called by psychics and such … Hmmm … I’m sure you’d be an annoying pain in the butt to a few poor souls around .. just to get their attention that way then ..
The fans, 1/3 or so, probably will love it. Or are just being curious.
what a prat, it’s kind of mean to do i think
Aha, just had it pointed out to me by a friend that we may see Acorah doing a ‘possessed’ moonwalk. Now that would be amusing, if nothing else!
Oh feck, I just realised that I have 3 Sky channels, so I’m never going to hear the end of this!! 🙁
Derren, you have to do something. Wipe his memory of something!! Do some kind of mind-fuckery to him and make him go away!! You’re our only hope!!!
Also, as a little aside…the 😡 smiley scares me 😮 🙁
Oh my god! That is utterly ridiculous!!
Who in their right mind would watch that drivel?!!
I can see the steam coming out your ears from here Derren!
It makes your skin crawl, doesn’t it? Getting on the band-wagon of a famous person’s death, how low can you go? I guess Derek whats-his-name won pole-position for this one. How does this rubbish get any air time, let alone any ratings? I wish Derren or someone like him would either do a “Jackson seance” using applied skills and techniques, or point out the techniques Derek whats-his-name uses to do trick the viewer. Personally, I think this would receive much better viewer ratings.
really in bad taste……..
Oh my giddy aunt, same legitimised exploitation of the bereaved only with a bigger name. At least it’s some TV company paying him and not some poor old lady waiting for pension day so she can ‘chat’ to her dead hubby for 30 minutes.
I hope he goes into one of his murderous rages during the show when he’s ‘possessed’ by Jacko, it’ll be great to hear him trying to do the accent and high pitched voice. Derek, (channels Derek) I’ll give you £500 of my own money if you do a crotch grab at some point during the séance. If there is a god (casts atheism aside for one moment) then this show will go ahead and be bloody hilarious.
Oh for the love of God!! What a pile of shite, Derek Acorah is the most arrogant prick around. Michael will be turning in his grave!!! What a sick way of making money!
I hope he moonwalks, falls over and breaks his leg, lol. 😉
Well what can I say!!!!!!!!!!!!! He’ll probably start talking in a high pitched voice and grabbing his crotch, hehe. Would definately watch that just for a laugh xx
oh dear me… Derren you could get more of a response from the ‘spirit world’ then sad twat Derek ever has!!!! I had the misfortune of seeing this charlartan once and to be honest it was the best comedy moments of my life so far…
No intelligent person could watch Derek without a fit of the giggles and I certainly might watch just for the comedy value alone will Derek be grabbing his groin and be wearing a white glove???
As other people have said it has got this wanker into the news again…
🙁
Well I was utterly amazed when I read this. I mean, anyone but Acorah… puuuullleeeeaaaassseeee…… The man is a very good actor but medium? More like small, as in small on ability. From memory wasn’t he a failed footballer who, not being able to make a living over here playing when to Australia and came back a medium.
I think the time has come to call time on Micheal Jackson stuff. I am so glad that I cancelled my subscription to paying Sky channels and make do with the free ones. What an utter waste of money.
And as Jen H says above – can you imagine the possessed moonwalk? Hope his “guide” has got extra stamina that night……
Haha, can’t wait to see what Mr Acorah has in store!! w00p (;
I contacted Micheal Jackson last night and he said that Derek Acorah is a dick.
On the topic of making money off of other people, advertising on Derren’s website!
None of this would be happening if you won at the roulette wheel!
x
Being a big MJ fan, this is highly upsetting. Even in death people can’t LEAVE HIM ALONE
I could not think of a worse thing!
The man is a charlaton – who else would in thier career ‘channel’ a baboon! Granted you did a Stewie the other day Derren but at least you were not channelling something that is not real 🙂
He’s an example of a predator who preys on the week who so desperately want to believe and are looking to replace/fill a void by something that is lost. The man is a joke. Its a money making scheme and the bods at Sky should be ashamed for robbing people!
At least your up front and honest about what you do and that is what makes you enjoyable to watch – if occasionally a little unsettling for those susceptable minded people like me that fall for things!.
End of rant.
Worst still, I hear June Sarpong is hosting 🙁
Still, no getting away from it, love or hate the idea, you know it’ll get good ratings.
Ahh come onnn Derren…. jump of of that there fence and tell us what you REALLY think! 😛
What’s it going to be? “Mary loves Dick aaaowww!” or as someone else put it on a forum I use “will it be Thriller sung in a scouse accent”?
That fraud Acorah will be doing a Boyzone special next…..
Did a little work on one of the ‘Most Haunted Live’ Shows that he used to do through the company that I worked for. The whole thing was an absolute sham! Unfortunately I am still under contract with them so cant go into too much detail for fear of losing my current job but, seriously, the amount of people who take this guy seriously are being utterly ripped off!
Avie
Oh you’ve got to be kidding me… *Headslamdesk*
I cannot believe that derek would stoop so low. it is absolutely sick what he is intending to do. Can nobody leave the jackson family alone and stop trying to make a mockery of his death and his family. Absolutely fucking sick. What an arsehole.
Oh. My. Word.
:O
oh dear, thats bad. but dereck will get loads of money & press for it. tho seeing ‘getting possesed’ by michael & trying to do the moonwalk & grabing his goods, may be amusing =p
i’m surprised this can even be on the air why is it that derren still gets hate mail from the seance but that derek can do this kind of thing without any bad feedback. Sky should be ashamed of itself for allowing this crap on TV and derek should be banned from TV for life
lol what a joke never going to happen
who next? poor stephen gately or the queen mother?
give up acorah……
and derren please say what u really think instead of being nice lol
xxxxxxxx
Let’s face it. Derek WILL contact MJ and he will get a “message” that he is at peace now and he loves all his fans………..and that will be IT.
Very poor taste Mr Acorah. Everyone involved should be ashamed.
Acorah AND June Sarpong? Television personality fail.
I’m an atheist but never has a bible quote been more apt: John 11:35
Jesus wept.
i hope this goes horribly wrong and the guy ends up looking like a bell end
Derek Acorah is a handsome, honest and genuine man. He has a deep and true abilty to speak to those in the spirit world, who have past on from the life we know. I think there is no doubt that he shall be able to contact the actual spirit of the late Michael Jackson.
Now, please excuse me, my flying pig needs feeding. Toodle-oo.
I wonder if Derek will get his hair done specially. Those brassy tints contrast really well with his purple face when he works himself up.
Having worked with Derek before…not the best experience ever in my life…i have to say…oh dear what on earth is it all coming to. Surely this is just a case of Derek wanting to keep himself in work and on the tv…just when i thought tv couldn’t get any worse we now have this car crash of a tv show to endure.
What’s with the i-tunes ads at the right hand side? No likey.
Wow! Way to capitalise on someone’s death.
Well done Sky. But more well done Derek! Derek can say literally anything he wants, and it can be accurate because he has almost limitless research material this time. He won’t even have to cold read.
I wish I’d thought of this! haha
Reading the article again, remember there’s not just Derek going to be there, but an American psychic too, so there’ll be two of the buggers at it! 😡
Btw, obviously they have given consent to this, but I wonder what Michael’s family or even his children think of all this? Will this be a comfort or a torment to them? I guess if they’re total believers then they’ll feel nothing but comfort, but I wonder if the ENTIRE family feel that way?
I think the distasteful thing is the fact it’s being turned into a TV circus. At least when Jade Goody’s Mum saw a psychic the actual ‘reading’ was done privately (then plastered in the media after!)
This all leaves a nasty, sour taste in the mouth….
LC x
This is a complete disgrace, there couldn’t be anything worse than derek acorah…..can’t even finish my sentence it’s that bad. Pure insult to the king of pop, if i were family i would be fuming.
MJ <3
I’m still so sickened by this and hubby heard on the news today that it would be taking place in a fortnight…the poor guy has only been dead five minutes!!
Is Uri going to be involved in this? (I hope not) I’ve always liked the guy but I couldn’t tolerate his part in all this…
Channel 4 should schedule the documentary you’ve made with psychic medium Joe Power a week before this entire ‘circus’ takes place Derren. Maybe then people would see Mr Acorah and all his phoney ‘helpers’ for what they really are…..that would shoot them all up the ‘arse’ wouldn’t it.!!
And another thing…..considering the many thousands of people who saw you perform ‘The Oracle’ last year (and the year before) how many people will still believe all this rubbish…..
OMFG!!! you are havin a laugh….. Surely…… That man is a effin joke what an absolute wanker!!! Well won’t be anything I will be spending time watchin!!! That is just pure CRAP!! Sam…..Sam have u found him ?? Oh yeh I have someone coming through .. He went before his time ..quite sudden in fact ! Yeh and like you don’t know like eh most of the world how he died, not gonna be too hard eh. GRRRRRRRRR what a low life he gettin paid to talk shit on tv what a joke.
Ok rant over ….. In………out …. Ahh feel much better thanks DB for lettin me get that out xx 🙂
I think that this is a really goofd Idea. I want to know waht happennned to MJ! MJ my mom and me miss you! I dream about him sometimes, and in mny dream he says donbt worry I’m at peace now, and you should eat well and exerzize and not tgake too many medicins.
I hope it’s filmed in night vision….
Why do they need Derek Acorah to conduct a seance? It’s not as if there is anything he can tell us that we don’t already know or could find out by going to our nearest bookshop. Why not spend their money on a well made, informative biographical documentary?
What a load of poo.
And Derek Acorah of all people. He who has been publicly revealed as a fraud and a charlatan. Do people really still believe he has the powers that he claims to have? I can’t wait to see what ridiculous possessions he ‘experiences’ in this. I’ll bet a tenner on Sam making him do a moonwalk.
I cant belive this well C**P would be allowed to go out on Tv. Whoever belives he could really do what he states is as stupid as a maggot in a spiders nest. Awfull tv, (I’ll be watching though)
OMG, this is wrong on so many levels….!!!
That is fundamentally sick……
Disgusting. If they were truly going to do it Sky would have to be honest from the start, and say it is all made up. Whatever happens, the family should be consulted first, and if they don’t agree then it shouldn’t go ahead.
