It is possible to see what numbers come out more regularly than others. There are several years worth of data to look at and from this you could probably make a good guess of the numbers and after all he did say that he was only looking to get five numbers right. He must have got lucky with the last one.

That would never work, it is a random draw. Trend wouldn't have anything to do with it, and at best you'd get a couple right by luck.

This is a site put up by Derren (his has been overloaded) to explore all the theories put forward

So basically, in a nutshell, he did what he always does. Told you how he did it, but doesn't really.

It's hilarious reading people getting wound up on the internet because he lied to them. He does it on every show he performs!

Hi,

I think he's a great entertainer and it's certainly got the nation talking this week. So what if it's not really magic, after a long day at work it's nice not to think about recruitment for a while.

I loved the show so well done Derren Brown!

A great show man, and whilst the show wasn't his best I too find the 'uproar' hilarious.

Besides, he did tell you how to win the lottery. Fix it.
