Derren Brown will attempt to predict the lottery results

[Dingdell]

Derren Brown will attempt to predict the lottery results this Wednesday in the first episode of his new series, The Events.

The illusionist will broadcast live from a secret location and, in a television first, Channel 4 will show the event across its entire network on Channel 4, E4, More4, Film4 and 4 Music.

Following the live prediction, Derren will reveal on Friday 11th September at 9pm how he did it and how viewers at home can also do it.

Speaking about the stunt, he said: "I realise there are a lot of questions this brings up, and I hope they'll be answered on the Friday night show. For now, I'm really excited and really nervous and cannot tell you for sure how well it will work. Some things just have to be tried."

Derren's previous TV specials have included live Russian Roulette, a seance and a foolproof horse race gambling system.

Watch the video below as Derren explains more about The Events. You can see the lottery prediction live on Wednesday at 10.35pm.

Am I missing something or aren't the lottery numbers drawn earlier in the evening?

[gatso]

the wednesday draw is not always at the same time

it'll be later this week so it doesn't clash with the england game on itv

[Claw75]

yeah the draw is done around 8.30 I think.

The Mirror and the Sun are correct. I’ve just got up, or you’d have got it earlier yourselves. I shall try and predict at least 5 out of the 6 balls correctly. I apologise now if it goes boobs-up.

This the culmination of a LOT of secret work and research. On Weds night, live at 10.35 pm, it will cut across all Channel 4 channels, and be broadcast on buildings in

London (Probably Marble Arch – otherwise will let you know where),

Manchester (Premier Lodge/back-up Deansgate Lock),

Birmingham (5-ways Entertainment Complex/Bull-ring, Moor St Side as back-up)

and Edinburgh (Hunter Square/back-up Museum of Scotland)

Then, on the first Friday night EVENTS one-hour special (9pm, , Fri 11th), I’ll show you how I did it.

The following Fridays will offer other ambitious live or interactive stunts and treats.

- A subliminal piece of media that will stick you to your seats at home.

- A nationwide psychic experiment

- A casino-related scam with a twist.

I’ll let you know more each week.

Wish me luck for Wednesday – I might even pray.

A relief to finally be able to talk about it! xx

The draw is on at 10.35pm as well - programme on at same time.

oooh - a casino related scam with a twist. I love Derren Brown.

[bolt pp]

theres a time delay in case the guy doing the numbers accidentally says "and the third number out this week is fucking 21"

[bolt pp]

oooh - a casino related scam with a twist. I'd love it if Derren Brown didnt survive the russian roulette stunt

That TV advert where hes walking backwards through the traffic has loads of subliminal messages in there, watch it closely, look for at least 4 different websites advertised in there...

Except that the Russian Roulette wasn't actually Russian Roulette though, was it?

A bit fed up with Mr Brown now, though live he is really good.

You should read some of his stuff.  Very interesting stuff from a very clever bloke. 

[EvilPie]

Why doesn't he take up poker?

Would love to see him up against Ivey, Hanson, Negreanu etc........

"So Phil are you bluffing?"

"No"

"Thankyou. I call"

No doubt that he's very clever..just a bit overkill from him now I think (Will no doubt watch it though).
