Pick me Derren I’m your biggest fan…. also much in need on £170,000.
I can’t wait! I’ll be watching for sure. 😀 Shame it’s the last one though, I’ll miss you Derren! 🙁
OK I am very excited again.
Look forward to Friday Derren. Keep up the good work with this blog I love it.

Oooooh, I love anything like this, gambling, casinos, etc! So apart from being fascinated as to watching the incomparable Derren (of course!) I also have an added interest in the subject matter too!
So looking forward to this Friday…..and oh to be the one he calls!! How WILL he do this?? Can’t wait to find out!! 😉
So sad these are coming to end though…. 🙁
LC x
what does the bit at the end mean….? busy year derren lol
My maths teacher did card counting and made £370 in 2hours.
Looks like Derren just woke up.
No casinos around where I live. Do you know how to take down a penny pusher? 😉
Can’t wait for Friday – but a bit sad that it’s the last one 🙁
I’m really looking forward to this. Derren, I have no idea how you do all this, I’m open minded but now im thinking its all real after I started watching you.
How amazing would it be if called you?!
Absolutely love him 🙂
Very exciting indeed :).
I’m SO gutted that this is the last of the Events series …… I have litterally been glued to my sofa!!
Thanks Mr. B. for a fantastic few weeks viewing …..
S x x
aw derren cant wait to see your face again on friday 🙂 gonna miss you sir! and your little beardy face x
…and it’ll be nice to know whether all of this hinting about red is leading to something. Red on the roulette wheel I expect, though I imagine it’s really not that simple!
loooooooove ur shows ill be watching on friday 🙂
i wanna be that lucky viewer though lol.. i will be teaching my 7 month son the derren brown ways then one day he can make himself a very rich man lol 😉
Really looking forward to Friday Derren, sounds good!
Hm…175 smackers….that would make a mighty fine birthday pressie 😉 😛
£500 would do me fine! i wouldnt have to keep painting crappy pictures for people with no taste and could concerntrate on my own show!!! Still..got to struggle to get recongition for your stuff dont you!!! good shows though, and as the pasy shows have freaked my eeevvilll teenage daughter out (she’s a teen they are all evil! lol) they have been extra brill for me!! Could DB show me how to glue a 15 yr olds mouth shut?
Does one need to already be IN the casino to be picked?
But then if I wasn’t picked, I’d miss the show. THE DILEMMA
I really cant beleive that this is the last an i just cant get enough, Amazzzing!
Cant wait too watch it alll..
Am I the only person who finds using the word “literally” when the opposite is intended extremely irksome?
Anyways. I look forward to your next series. You’ve gained a fan.
PICK ME!!!! I’m your biggest fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lucky one won’t be me though cos I could never get to leave a bloomin message on the number……
Oh, and I still think “all your chips are belong to us” would be a better banner. But what do I know? I an account have not.
I DO really look forward to this episode, i like casino styled episodes of Derren. But i hope it is a bit better then the last 3 episodes… The first was promising and had an nice explanation, but the other one’s i didn’t had the surprising feeling. Witch i get quite comfortable with in the last few seasons of his show. But this one looks more promising then the others to me, i don’t know why, but i think because it is the final one of the season.
Sorry for my bad english, but i’m a very poor dutch student who cannot finance a good english accommodation. Good luck to myself, thanks.
If memory serves Derren mentioned he’d been banned from playing in practically every casino in the UK in the DVD for “Inside your mind”, so how come he’s been allowed into this one? Is this the one remaining casino that doesn’t know who he is? Or is this more misdirection?
Or did he use his Jedi-like powers of persuasion to get past the management? That’s almost as interesting as the trick itself 🙂
hi derren love wot u do cant w8 2 c 1 of ur live shows again the last 1 was g8 gud lck with ur next show (not that u need it lol)
hey derren and team just to say good work with the events loved it im sad its the last one but i bet it would be the best, love the blog keep it up and im looking forward for th future ;D 😀
A TWIST! Ooohh ‘eck.
Love your little wave at the beginning. Brightened my day for sure (even though I’ve already seen the video o_O)
😀
Thank You Derren – Friday nights have not been quite so dull on tv, your wit and charismatic presense will be greatly missed, guess i will have to entertain myself by playing the WII again.
Don’t fancy bringing something out for that now do you????
ooh, I loves a good twist!! wonder what it’ll be!?!? Gutted its the last in the series though 🙁 I didnt get stuck, or get the picture, must try harder next time me thinks!! Roll on February, cant wait to see you live!!! 🙂
doubt it will be me, meh
Hey Derren and Co., good luck!
Everyone, been reading through your replies – hm, Jedi Mind tricks to get past security and into a Casino? I concur, lol – can even see him doing so 😉
You need to bring out a “How to……for Dummies” DVD muah ha ha 😀 Good times! (I jest)
Gutted it is the last one also, but roll on Feb!!! Going to see you in a live show, first time, should be good 🙂
Thank you!
Emilia
DERRENNNNNNN!!!!!!!!! Hello, Sad it’s the last show!!
I’m all booked up to see you at the Playhouse Edinburgh next year, sooooo long away though!
If you like you can pick me i’d be so gratefull <3 🙂 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
“there is a small but distinct possibility that the fortuitous individual under scrutiny might be a very ungood self”
What did he say!?
I doubt it’ll be me, I don’t have £5000 for him to take.
Shame, I’d love to be involved in one of Derren’s show one day.
I can’t think of anything intelligent to write, so I’ll just whoop;
WHOOP!!! COME ON, DERREN!
I get really excited thinking it could be me but then I remember that a) I’m 17 and b) I’m not going to be able to watch the show as I’m at an 18th birthday party (sadly, not mine) 🙁 good luck Derren xx
also, bummer that it’s your last event 🙁 I hope your back on our screens very, very soon xx
C’mon, make it a goodun, make it a goodun!!!
Derren! – something so spooky happened! My friend made me a collage drawing thing for my birthday and when i was trying to do the remote drawing on your programme last week I drew something very very similar to what she had drawn me (unfortunately no concentric circles though – hehe! – but i hadn’t read the paper!!) – we thought it was very strange and just wanted to tell you!!!
I’ve really really enjoyed the events and can’t wait for this week’s!! xx
I’m starting to wonder whether the lucky one person will be the person with the prize/ultra-violet writing on their Enigma Poster… and if so, am gutted as I always buy Derrens stuff but couldnt afford the poster this time (hence I could do with the money). Anyhow, end of winge.
Will miss seeing you on a Friday night, but to still have updates and pics here and Twitter is great, keep up the good work Derren, Andy, Coops, Phylis, Iain, Jennie, and co.
xx
Mr Brown, you’ve already shown us how to win the lottery, what could be nicer than that?
“There is a small but distinct possibility that the fortuitous individual under scrutiny might be your very own good self” = It Could Be You. Off’ve our very own National Lottery.
Anyhoo. I’m rather sad that this is the last of The Events. The last 3 weeks have sparked my imagination, depleted my bank account and made Saturdays in retail a nicer day to work.
Has there been any word from Channel 4 as to whether there’s going to be a DVD comprising of all four episodes and some bits they didn’t show? I’m thinking Children on Buses with Balls in Bags…
🙂
Zoe.
xoxoxoxo
Really looking forward to this little treat.
I think the twist will be that, actually he has done nothing. He’s just made us all believe that every week he’s done these miraculous things, but really we’ve just been staring at blank screens and he’s done them confusing mind tricks on us all to make us believe he’s brought out this new series.
I know your games, Derren.
***for the record- I’m kidding***
… or am I?
Aw, last one 🙁
But sounds like it’ll be a good-un 🙂
@flapjack: lol
“These are not the Derren your are looking for”
Yup, works for me! He might’ve just been banned from blackjack tables, since with a little skill the game can be swayed slightly in your favour. Currently, casinos don’t think you can sway your odds on a roulette table without a computer… though I suspect that’s all about to change on Friday…
I know I’ll cry when that person gets the call. i love when Derren does nice things for people. It’s a laugh and disconcerting when he’s evil to the Tricks (I’m sure they all walk away with something learned and an amazing memory to keep), but I just love when you know the experience has been a wee bit life-changing for them. I hope he wins tons for them. What a put-pocket that’s going to be!
Aw yayy I can’t wait for Friday (: (:
Derren’s wave made me laugh ! I swear his eyes are always changing colour! Creepy!
