    I absolutely cannot bear that Galaxy advert, and that music which accompanies it!

    This bit was mad. I'm an anxious person so I pretty much immediately opened my eyes and it's always quite spooky to see how many people go all in and they're actually under. Theres always a really errie silence too. Amazing how well behaved the rest of the crowd is.

    Hypnosis is BS. It's just people complying to what us being said. No one goes 'under' like shown here.

    Actors, researchers, trickery. It ain't hard to do.

    You're exactly right. They do. People just complyand go aalong with it. They are completely aware of everything. It should be called compliance not hypnosis. It's BS.

    I hate that it looks like this guy is in a coffin. I've never seen a Brown show before

    Dammit! I had no idea i would have bought tickets! How many nights did he do? Was it sold out?

    I saw absolutely no posters for his show in Glasgow over the summer at all. I guess i musn't have walked past the Kings Theatre. Absolutely gutted! :(

    Researchers and audience applications. The rest is just show to make it look like he can mind read. No one can.

    I goes to great lengths to say he doesn't read minds.... What he can read is 'micro-signals'. The same way a good poker player can read 'tells'.....

    Aww, basically saw it on derren brown site! He does Edinburgh one year, Glasgow the next, hes in Edinburgh in may.
    Yep he was there from 14-19th july. Pretty much a sell out but the king being an old building with no air con and the lights didn't help!

    Derren always outs fortune tellers and mind readers and other things as fake, just like he has been doing in this show. I'm skeptical but I do like to sit down and enjoy Derren Brown shows, the topics he's going on about now are interesting.

    I saw this show one night and they didn't ask any personal info at any stage beforehand.
