Good Lord... I can't believe that there's so much discussion about this... This is exactly what Derren wants
I'm reserving judgement over this one until tonight's show.
And considering that Richard Wiseman & Derren are oft spoken of in the same phrase, I think we all know how he *really* did it!

I liked the expression
Derren and his conjury-based shenanigans
and even better
the night of the balls

It's interesting that half a million more people watched this than the actual draw. Maybe he can take over Mystic Megs old slot.

Only 5 hours and 15 minutes to go until we're all put out of our misery.
I wonder who'll be first to post the "I told you so" replies.....hmmm

I am going with the split screen idea the 39 ball does move up slightly. I think he might mention when he said about the BBC going live he says "And thats what were are doing here" and delibribtly points down to the side he is standing.
Although i will be a little disappointed if this is the way he did it it still will be a very good effect and will not be worked out by the majority of people.

With all due apologies, it was phrased to me as, 'Tonight Derren will tell all, or possibly sod all'...

Jon
Very interested in your sale item.
Are there multiple outs or does it only work whenever those actual numbers come up on the lottery?
Also I heard you can get split-screen technology as an accessory for this effect. Do you have this too?

I am interested as he did say that everyone could do it for there friends on one advert sooooooo logically this could not involve any major camera tricks as if it does you would have to be loaded to put the effect together for your friends.
they should have got him too do it whilst standing next to the machine.

Well as a mentalist and possessor of precognative ability ....
I told you so ... (please note this predication is almost an hour earlier than Derren managed and no trickery in sight ..)

Bearing in mind that the Talk Magic clock is an hour behind, it should be easy to post his explanation and appear to predict it to all those who browse the thread in the future.
