Derren Brown to predict national lottery numbers

[-Heart]

The things he does are remarkable. Wouldn't be one bit surprised if he pulls this off, and I hope he does.

Still, I need to find his address before Wednesday..

I bet he does it. No idea how, but he will............

[Misawa]

No chance.

Erm, well tbh, everyone knows TV Lags by a bit yeh? Well, tbh, it wouldnt be that hard surely, get someone to ring him thats at the lottery and it comes through instantly, goes down the earpiece into his ear he says it, it comes out and tadah.

Surely he'd chose the numbers before the actual draw instead of saying what number is going to come next when it's live. Derren Brown makes sure everything he does is as believable as it can be. Plus he explains how to do it afterwards. It won't be something as simple as "I got a man to phone me and tell me the numbers".

National lottery starts and finishes at 10.35 - 10.45, in which it is drawn almost immediately.
Darren browns show starts and ends at 10.35 - 10.45, in which i would think he would have a TV and he would predict each one as it came out, we shall see though

Anyway, id like to see how he does it as in presents it, will he have a TV whilst hes doing it? anyway, it wouldnt be classed as teaching really, to buy a ticket, it needs to be bought by about 7.30 on the day anyway

He never wears an earpeice.

He will do it, and to people who are saying "oh hes gunna tell everyone how to do it and its gunna ruin the lottery" are you for real? He'll explain how he does it, but it'll be a technique that has took him years and years to study, it's not just gunna be something that anyone anywhere can do and win the lottery.

Also to people saying "wouldn't he be rich by now" he doesn't do it for money, and he probably is loaded anyway. Have you ever even seen his programs eg. the one where he wins a load of money at the horce racing/dog racing (i forget)? He could do that over and over and be loaded if he really wanted, but he does it for fame, and to show that it can be done.

ok so someone off screen tells him, same principle. I was only suggesting ideas of ways he could do it. Either way, it would be a trick, the lottery is completely random, or, at least to some extent. He wouldnt be 'rich by now' as i bet you any money the only way he could do is after the draw was done.

No. No-one off screen tells him, stop trying to catch him out. He's studies it for years, he's done loads of amazing tricks before, there will be some way that he'll know what the numbers are. He'll probably show around the whole room to show theres no-one in the room with him and no earpeice, therefore no-one to tell him the numbers as they are being drawn.

i EXTREMELY doubt the bbc would give him the lottery numbers and theres not that much of a delay for him to be told. i doubt he'd be like "hold on a sec audience..." *listens to numbers* and then repeat them out quickly...
