Derren Brown is gay? I'm sure he mentioned a wife at some point?

Oh hell yeah! Definitely watching this.

The System

From Wikipedia

Brown publicly came out as gay in 2007 in The Independent's 'I Believe' article. Brown told the paper: "I believe you should always come out; life is so much easier. People generally aren't as bothered by your intimate secrets as you are.

It took me being in a relationship with a guy for a month before I told anyone I was thus inclined. If anything, I was disappointed to learn it wasn't much of a surprise. Possibly my penchant for interior decor had given the game away."

LMAO

If anyone votes for 'Hero at 30,000 Feet', I'll personally hunt them down and make them pay! :pac:

Can you add another option to the poll for those of us who dont like any of them(and him)?

No, because if you dont like any of them or him

then dont bother looking or commenting for that matter

Not sure which of his shows is my favourite. I'll have to watch them all sometime soon and decide. I was at Enigma in the Grand Canal Theatre and absolutely loved it!

08-01-2011 06:18PM

Are they just counting the Events or any of his previous shows?

just these ones

Hero at 30,000 Feet, The System , The Heist, Messiah, Séance and Russian Roulette Live

i'm guessing because in ''the events'' Derren explained how they were all done so it would defeat the purpose of airing them again
the voting is closed now any way

Get over yourself. Can i just read a tabloid newspaper instead of watching Derren Brown?

I really like Brown when he's out of character. He's very funny and actually rather sweet.

Tricks of the Mind is a fantastic book, too, he turned out to be a lot more self aware than I expected. His account of inadvertently leaving the house - and then encountering a load of fans - with his willy out had me in tears laughing, as did his description of his look as that of a "gay timelord".

Love his book. Haven't had a chance to get his new one yet though. I really should! Did you use any of the techniques from the book?

I'm thinking that Messiah and The Heist are my favourites (used youtube to remind myself).

Derren is a bit freaky really, isn't he?

It's like I'm scared of him, but I still want to hang out with him.

Busi_Girl08 · 08-01-2011 09:15PM

His parrot (the alive one) is so cute.

08-01-2011 09:17PM

That's a really nice room! They've got a bloody fireplace!! Excellent.

Busi_Girl08 · 08-01-2011 09:20PM

His voice was really deep in that clip.

08-01-2011 09:21PM

Mind Control was an amazing TV show.

jill_valentine · 08-01-2011 09:21PM

I think it's interesting how "forced" his early persona seems in contrast to him now. He seems a lot more comfortable on stage now, and a lot closer to his "real" personality.

I think that's because it's the way that David Blaine was and they were pretty much in competition with him at the time, but when he becomes his own star I guess he doesn't have to be like him.

It's scary to think that Russian Roulette was real! I thought it was fake, like the English police said it was.

jill_valentine · 08-01-2011 09:34PM

"Creative other half" as in his writing partner, or his partner-partner?

Busi_Girl08 · 08-01-2011 09:36PM

His portraits are amazing.

08-01-2011 09:40PM

It's wonderful how much Derren enjoys what he does. That's why he's so so good, I reckon.

Busi_Girl08 · 08-01-2011 09:54PM

Sweet lord. Derren Brown with a mullet. I've seen it all now.

08-01-2011 09:59PM

It's amazing how he keeps in contact with people that took part!

08-01-2011 10:05PM

Please be Seance ..

Basq · 08-01-2011 10:20PM

Damnit.. wished it was 'Seance' too (can't remember it at all), but don't mind 'The Heist' either.

08-01-2011 10:21PM

First time I've seen that, it's quite interesting!
