Here's how you do Q&A.

Have people write down questions.

Have the questions collected.

Using your favourite method, secretly read the questions.

Reveal and answer the questions in a style of your own choosing.

Easy. :D

That was just a bit too shameless wasn't it. Oh well. Too late now. :wink:

Okay yeah so the Q&A is clearly a popular choice, in which I have NO IDEA how its done. If anyone wants to send a sneaky PM I won't tell :-p

To be honest, you cannot fault Derren's shows, all of the specials he has done, apart from the seance and others like russian roulette are great audience participating routines!

The newspaper word prediction is fantastic aswell :)

Sean, the best beginners resources for Q&A that I have come across include Lee Earle's Q&A Teach-In, which I have on video. I presume it is now available on DVD, as videos are a relic of the past. Also Eddie Burke's Q&A book, available through www.mreenterprises.co.uk. Either will set you on the right road.
