Yeah, why not just say them now?



His 'excuse' is that the Beeb have a legal right to announce the lottery numbers. What Brown would be showing us is his prediction though and not actually the numbers so that whole reason was bullshit.

Surely Derren Brown should be the richest man alive...

My only issue is his legal reasoning.

As he wouldnt actually be revealing the actual results, just his prediction.

Even if his prediction is true, I don't see how that would break any law.

anyway, still impressive.

Basically the trick is not predicting the lottery numbers, but getting the numbers onto the balls as soon as the lottery has happened. I don't know how he did it though.

Interesting. Both feeds were in sync, TVcatchup BBC was only a split second ahead of TVCatchip Ch4.

Well, the C4 feed was about half a second behind the BBC feed. So the delay thing is a non-factor.

I'm very intrigued as to how he did that one. Incredible stuff. Particularly as the balls weren't handwritten.

I'm waiting to be told by him how he did it, but how would you do it with an (approx) 10 second delay?

Was the little stand in the shot all the time? I didn't notice it until he walked over to it.

Semi-awesome, I had the beeb on split screen to watch both live which was cool, but him not showing the balls before/at the same time sort of ruins the illusion, I'm sure it'll be really good when he explains it all on Friday, but this would have been truly out of this world if he'd turned his balls around a second before the live draw.
