(ooh and edit really... he's a combo of things just what he's famous for is his mentalism

)

He describes himself as an illusionist, not a magician - that was a direct quote from him.... But of course, you can't believe a word the bugger says

Really, he doesn't exist.

Pheebs, explain? Even if she did know, she is not allowed to! On pain of unmentionables!

That's why they do the hypnosis thing - programming in case she goes astray.

Hahaha! Genuinely I don't have a clue

I was messing

I would doubt Derren Brown would ever say he was a magician! A lot of "magicians" don't like to be known as "magicians". In fact, when asked if they will perform magic many of them will say "I will perform an illusion" or something along those lines.

All I would say is he's most famous in the magic world for his mentalist acts - those are his signature performances. Unlike, say, David Copperfield whose signature acts are illusions (although he's a blooming awesome card magician

)

Ooooooh! Nobody won the lottery this week, does that mean anything?

Lol

It can't be split screen. It wouldn't make a very good show tonight if he said "yeah, I cheated using a camera trick". He also says he doesn't like doing camera tricks so I can't wait till the show is on tonight!

I've just wasted 30 minutes of my life on the arse water that is Darren Brown, never again. Utter bunk which just plays on people's susceptibility, I respected some of the stuff he did before but tonight show was utter rubbish and backs up my thoughts that the guy is a complete charlatan.

Those last words "It's just a trick" were the truest thing he said all evening.
