    I LOVE this. I have a feeling that I’ll be glued to this trailer for a while.

    the events are supposed to trick, to win, to fool and to control, so the lottery could be to do with the to win one. interesting that he is beside the balloon with the CIA logo when talks about the most secure systems, if you know where to look… roll on 09/09!

    Everything is backwards AGAIN :X

    I’ll have to spot all the hidden messages now.

    The red and black are colours of playing cards right? In one of the teasers he plays with a deck of cards. just a thought.
    And is it definately a CIA logo? i thought it looked more like an Albanian or German eagle or the logo from the retsehcnaMdetinU.com site although the link with secure systems makes sense.

    Love it! Musn’t think to hard or my head’ll explode! Cant wait for the show!

    Can’t wait until the series starts! I have no idea how the advert was done.

    actually don’t think it is the CIA logo, just assumed it was because of the secure systems link! who knows?! Looking forward to the show when hopefully all (or at least some!) will be explained!

    so much detail in one tiny teaser. my money is on 0O. WEN the roulette wheel spins. It almost feels as though there is another millenium bug on the horizon. Have enjoyed the run up to this. The references to past shows, Russion Roulette, The Heist, Enigma. All very controlling. Feels like each series has been building us up to one big final showdown.

    Any one for Pizza?

    Can anyone give me a link for a reversed version? There are so many odd things going on in this trailer. Whats on that guys back?

    Like I wasn’t ridiculously over excited about the events already! what a brilliant trailer! I love that somebody has already posted a reversed audio version on you tube, I love the internet – roll on september

  14. Matt Blais

    Also has anyone noticed the random use of capitals on his blog? He randOmly typEs words likE this. Wtf?

  15. Unconfirmed
    19 August 2009

    There’s nothing ‘random’ about it Matt.

    Possibly this is a speculation too far, but i was just watching the competition episode of trick of the mind (see entry above) and wondered whether it was significant that episode ends with the footballers he was using saying they might ask him for the lottery results for the weekend – given the lotto balls etc in the advert… of course, it may be coincidental…

  17. christine

    the woman with the coffee. she throws away the coffee at the end (see wet stain on the floor).
    this cant be reversed.
    so there must be some clever way of editing….

  18. Danny

    The best bit is that he will be using kids to help him along the way “if you know where to look”
    With most kids you tend to click up emotions of innocents and what not that my 10p worth anyway.
    I went to the last show he did in my end in may and noticed a major flaw so i hope this show relight my love for his skill

    I’m just loving this, but the ‘auld brain is giving up trying to work anything out! We have ROTOR from previous posts, which puts one in mind of the devices used to break code… we’ve and the other ‘hidden’ words that really are not very hidden so possibly mean nothing, we have lotto numbers, It will be you, the capitalised letters and words in the post titles, the backwards videos, the slightly criptic wording of the C4 comp… and lots of other bit and pieces that people are picking up on – also an overall twin peaks feel that is just goose-pimple inducing in itself….

    If i keep thinking about it I’ll start to make strange links where there are none at all!

    I’m just going to have to wait for the 9th and see what happens then… off to bed I think!!!

    I think the first number might be a 32 or something instead of a two. I can see another number there.

    I think its a stretch but wouldn’t it be great if this was an ARG?

    That was so incredibly genious. Good luck with the show, Derren and Co.

  22. Julie
    20 August 2009

    Brilliant! Just genius!
    Did anyone else flinch when watching the end of the reversed version on youtube? 😮
    I really do love this and all the little clues that have been trickling through over the past couple of weeks.

    Going to watch it again…and again…and again…

    x 😀

    I don’t understand the businessman whistling for a taxi with a large white O on his back.

    On the ManchesterUnited there’s a story about an Ian Ducee undergoing drug testing after freezing on the pitch. Ian Ducee is the name of a neurobiology expert in the School of Biology at the University of Nottingham http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/biology/contacts/duce/index.php

    i think the logo on the balloon is from the manchester city fc logo , and he did some filming in manchester.. The other site surely refers to manchester united. maybe football fixtures as man city play arsenal on the 12th september which is close to that competition date.. but he has spoken about ‘controlling the nation’. spooky. maybe im clutching at straws but i think theres something there being as he was in manchester aswell

    ok spotted in manchester yesterday apparantly…you decide

    Can’t wait! I loved the trailer.
    But … I wish I was a UK resident. =(

    Undo it Darren – some kind of mind game must be behind that awful loss yesterday! What have you done to them!!!!

    I am soo hyped up about ‘The Events’ . Brilliant work guys!

  29. SemiColon
    20 August 2009

    On the Man U site, the logo says “Hic Locus Non Est Verus” which is Latin for “this place is not true”. Not a huge revelation, but…

    Has anyone downloaded the video and then REVERSED it on a video editing program? I did in on Sony Vegas
    You can really understand what he says. (DUH)
    =D

    (if someone has suggested this before and I’m not the first one, then ignore it)

    20 August 2009

    im pretty sure it’s something to do with the lottery, the numbers on the signpost, the sign on the bus and every other clue in the video add up to this. just what is gonna happen with it!?!?! 😀 x

    I am gutted. I saw the trailer last night but I can’t watch it again, as I only have the internet at work and they have blocked YouTube etc. :'( Damn my stupid money-saving-non-internet-enabled home!!! I NEED more! I can’t wait until 09.09.09!! (I’m going to have to go to a friend’s on the pretense of wanting to see them and the use their internet aren’t I?!)

    Other Stuff 🙂

    Detinu (or as in United44 as in Wiki = Detinu refers to a fabled group of 44 knights who served the Norman King Henry I during his reign from 1100 to 1135 AD… Sir Mark Stephen is often referred to as the 44th Detinu, or Detinu44)

    Red and Black (written on the truck at the start)

    2 25 0 6 47 or 74 6 0 25 2 (on the post in blue green red – A green zero is most often used on a roulette table)

    Man running and calling for a taxi or something has a white zero or circle on his back

    License plate on truck starts with EML … (although I have a poor copy of the video that limits me from doing a better video forensic analysis)

  43. Jo
    20 August 2009

    don’t forget RED & BLACK on the first van in the scene. Anyone with iPhone can download iReverse to listen to the message 🙂

    not sure if anyone mentioned or it’s anything really, but the truck that says red & black is black and it’s next to a red bus.

  47. Baxta76

    Manchester United?
    The Lottery?
    £40 million heist?
    Black and red are manchester uniteds colours.
    Why does that woman make an origami cup, one handed?

    Blimey, all of these theories everyone is coming up with is making my head spin! Derren is probably reading all of them and loving the confusion he’s wrought! 😉

    I agree with what someone said, that when you watch the trailer in reverse (i. e. Derren speaking normally) it’s frightening watching him just missing the traffic by inches as he’s going backwards….and the end with that truck is even worse!
