    For HHH to come up THH has to have also come out, so he wins.


    So no-one in the group saw the prediction beforehand?:rolleyes:

    Wrong, the odds are the same. Coins don't have memory. Its 50:50 everytime.

    No, he is right. For HHH to win, the second guy needs THHHHH - as the first THH goes to Derren.

    Of course this show is bull****. Still, entertaining. Derren was never going to reveal anything, it's bad practice in his line of work.

    Still a brilliant entertainer.

    That said, note he didn't show his team the actual numbers.

    Did anyone else notice a split second flicker on the screen as he said "but I didn't" when talking about fixing the machine?

    I may have missed but I don't think I did, but he didn't explain the use of the 2nd camera,did he?

    He tricked us all.

    Also,considering he got the numbers off the group,why did he need to write them down as they were being called out.

    Not to mention all the averages were calculated after they knew the results in all of the draws too.

    I thought it was brilliant! The whole psychological thing with the group was interesting and brilliant, while being a crock of sh!t.
    The reveal of how he DIDN'T do it was great though!

    lost the tiny garin of respect I had him for being a magician - this was a cheap publicity stunt!

    They have to really bond as a group though - that's key. Also don't forget your calculator.

    The only accurate thing in that show was the coin toss malarchy.

    unfortunately everybody in England and Ireland knows the coin toss trick now, which leaves me with no option but to trick my brother who lives in germany.

    At least he sort of 'admitted' it was a trick at the end

    i'm confused at how he thought this would be a good tv show.. or a good move for his career..

    He was never going to tell the truth. he never does. We know that derren does not really believe in Automatic writing, or psychic abilities, and he is honour bound to not reveal his secrets. And people dont want the pedestrian explanation.

    He is an entertainer, and a fine one. Watch the mupper after him, and compare.

    Not me, I've been impressed with some stuff he's done but not this. Especially since it was given away with the balls clearly having been tampered with.

    we never saw the numbers they predicted for all we know there still in a white container?! wtf!

    he explained how the system worked why not this?

    The whole thing was a set up just to get people to tune in to watch the last couple of mins when he showed the clips and flashing images of upcoming shows. The suggestion in there will help him pull off the future tricks

    all imo of course

    David Blaine is on now and he is a fantastic magician.
    I'd watch him over Derren any day.

    Not his stupid hanging in a box stuff, but his magic when he is out on the streets of America.

    I'm Sky +ing it and watching something interesting so I can fast forward through all the crap and just get the answer.

    Could you not just say you are recording it?

    Good point, but ths System is really a mathematical trick and he does explain those, which doesnt get you kicked out of the Magical Coven.
