first of all.. sorry for the title craig
i just like writting overhyped titles just like scescop does
So.. this is a Show where Derren Brown an intelligent, sincere and charming guy who doesnt have a reason to lie (sorry.. scescop´s way of explaining things again)..
let me start again..
so Derren has this new show in UK were he investigates people who claim paranormal ability
this is the first episode a medium (the 2nd is xray vision and so on...)
it is great
here is how it goes
1. Derren meets Joe Powell the Medium
2. Joe Powell does a series of readings getting great hits
3. Derren does a reading and gets some hits
4. Joe Powell does a Psychic Show
5. Richard Wiseman explains away the way cold reading works and you can see piece by piece how he did the show
6. Joe Powell refuses to do a test he had previously agreed on (how weird!)
7. Last reading goes wrong since sitter meet Derren
8. Derren and Joe face each other one last time
9. Some funny stuff comes up showing how Joe had some information of a sitter
It is really great, i think is quite entertaining
and like all believers, Joe he refuses to be challenged
too bad..

this is the first chapter out of 5, if it grabs your attention you can find the rest in ScepticaTv on youtube
i Particulary like ¨what about the affair?¨ thing..
that´s reminded me so much of David Hoy.. a mindreader-christian charlatan who use to ask when meeting somebody ¨hows your father?¨ letting people think.. he knew something about their father..
i have a story on this..
one time i was table hopping in a bar.. doing mindreading and stuff like that
a really pretty girl came and ask me if i could tell her about her boyfriend.. and i just asked ¨he isnt married, isnt him?¨...
yep.. sure enought.. he was!.. and the girl was so impressed i decided not to do anything else that night.. (just like george constanza on seinfeld.. you pull off a big joke.. and you are off).
so.. this is how readings work
nothing more, nothing less
nothing far beyond
hope you have fun
