Thanks n00b but Derren's remarks were in connection with the ending and the leadup to it, not the show itself, therefore it's reasonable to discuss it in this manner. As far as I can see, nothing posted thus far has compromised his request.

But what a treasure trove to choose from, eh? :D

Some London (Wimbledon) dates announced http://www.ambassadortickets.com/1844/679/Wimbledon/New-Wimbledon-Theatre/Derren-Brown---Enigma

You've got to dress nicely though as they're going to be filming it for the tellybox.

So - Enigma is coming to Stoke On Trent next week and there's still tickets available for all nights...

Question is - do I go again, having already seen it once? It would be fun to watch some of the 'business' now that I won't be too bothered about following the show... or should I wait for it to come on Channel 4?

Hmmmmm the pain of choice.......

Yes, go! I'm looking forward to my third viewing in a couple of weeks.

Agreed - go again if you can! I've seen the show twice and found I'd forgotten many of the subtleties Derren used. Although, that might just be old age....

One of the best live shows i have ever seen!!!


I was there too, on the third row. Also, because myself and Derren have a mutual friend, I got ushered backstage straight after the show to go chill in the dressing room :D

By the way, I was the picture during guess who, who "obviously takes some kind of plant" - damn that was a baaaaaad picture!!

Actually last night he asked us all not to tell anyone "what happens in the show, particularly the bit at the end". I assume his phrasing changes each time but last night it definitely sounded like he wanted us to keep it all quiet.


Having said that ... the 'white handbag' was a microphone transmitter and battery and it had a microphone on the strap, which is why they didnt need to unclip the microphone when they took it off.

that'll teach you - if you hadn't bought ThoughScan, you'd have had the money for Derren... :)

Are you saying Thoughtscan wasn't worth the money? :p

To be fair, I probably won't ever use it, as it has inspired me to create something far more ingenious. I'm hoping to use it at a guarden party soon; and I asked Paul Stockman and he says he's never heard of that method before.

If its as sucssesful as I theorise it will be, then Thoughtscan will have been worth every penny. It does also use the Thoughtscan board, so that came in very handy.
