Derren brown: An evening of wonders

Frank · Derren brown: An evening of wonders

Did anyone see this the other night ? For the past several months Derren has been touring the country doing this stage show which replicated the 'Psychic' powers of the mind readers of a bygone age.Tricks used by spiritualists and Oracles.
Just one of these shows was televised the other night. Once one accepts that there are no stooges in the audience what follows is truly amazing. He cold reads total strangers from the back of the audience, telling them what they are thinking, their star sign, even their name. His act is full of teases where he feigns that the act has gone wrong, only for there to be a twist where he reveals that he's gone one better and done somethng even more amazing.

There are quite a few reviews of various versions of the show in the internet if you Google. This is just one taster http://www.tvscoop.tv/2009/01/set_the_video_d_62.html

The good news is that if you missed it, you can still watch it on Channel 4's catchup site http://www.channel4.com/video/bra...d=derren-brown-evening-of-wonders

Worth seeing !

after the show he came out and son and daughter waited
for an autograph
there was about 30 people waiting
he signed and also spoke to people

one of them asked him to speak to their friend on
their mobile and he had a chat

son and daughter were very impressed with how
pleasant and friendly he was
