So, this Derren Brown stunt...

[She Knows It]

I reckon he must've already hypnotised me to sit in my seat tonight, or I wouldn't have wasted an hour watching that shite.

Let's face it, we are sad bastards and if it hadn't of been that shit it would have been some other shit.

[Carradona]

Speak for yourself doris, Liz isn't a sad bastard.

[Ezekiel 25:17]

That was whack, seriously.

[Tom R]

worrappened?

[TheBitch]

I was stuck to my chair a week early and for what? Fuck all thats what.

He'd hidden the 49 balls up his arse and managed to shuffle the correct six out whilst nobody was looking.

I love Derren Browns stuff, but can't help but feel a little underwhelmed by tonight... especially given the anticipation over the last few days.

 

There was no real explanation... he just gave three ways in which he could have come to that result but then said 'believe whatever you want'.. which makes me think it was purely camera trickery.

 

I'm interested to know what the significance of the snowflake was. I have a feeling tonights show may be revisited later in the series.

 

According to Virgin Media it is. I recorded it and it said tonights episode is part of a series and asked me if I want to record them all.

Tonight was just about continuing the misdirection....problem was it was about as entertaining as watching a bloke smash polystyrene cups with this foot.

[Tycoon]

Can someone tell me where the snowflake scene was, i seen him holding it at the end of the show, then i watched it again and couldnt find it!?

[Brownie]

What's this snowflake people are talking about?

[Carradona]

In the advert, he just pulled out a snowflake and held it there.

It's because he's Christmas crackers.

Camera trick.

Was anybody else willing the nonexistent knife to go through that lad's foot? I'm turning into a horrible person.

 

Another thing - when he asked the lad how much money he'd want to compensate him if the knife did go through his foot, and he said 500 grand. Leeson said he would have said 500 grand as well. I must have looked surprised so he asked me how much I'd want if it were me. I said "I was thinking about 10 grand".

 

Am I just really cheap? What's the lowest you'd accept to get stabbed in the foot?

I said 500 quid, maybe I hadn't thought it through fully.

[Total Longo]

Am I missing something here? I mean, If he can predict the lottery, why isn't he a multi-millionaire then? Even if Camelot banned him, he could still get his ma or Murray Walker or someone to buy a ticket on his behalf and then go halves with them. And it's go! go! GO!!!!!

[halewood pete]

what a load of fucking rubbish.

At the time I had the munchies, so I thought "Double sausage and egg McMuffin"

Taken from the Guardian blog;

 

9.25pm:

Oooh. Good trick no. (Although I must have misheard the 70% thing, given that it couldn't make sense at the time). Is it bad to wish that there was a knife actually under the cup?

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

So, how did he do it?

[Brownie]

When he asked the lad how much money he wanted if things went wrong, I said, '£1M'!

 

Gotta set your sights high to begin with haven't you?!

 

I wish he would just let everyone know how he actually did it, instead of keeping us guessing.

[odris]

I said 50 grand.

 

Got to say that last nights show was fucking shit, also when the woman was feeling for a mouse did anyone else get extremely annoyed when he revealed the card with the mouse under but he never showed you the other 2 cards? No doubt the 3 of them had mice under them. Fucking blert.

He turned all of the cards over after she had picked the boxes.

[odris]

But did he? Hmmmm
