Derren Brown Investigates: The Man Who Contacts The Dead

Derren Brown takes off around the globe to uncover some extraordinary supernatural and psychic claims. He starts in Liverpool, meeting Joe Power, who claims the ability of communicating with the dead, including John Lennon. In this episode, Joe comes face to face with Derren's discerning eye. Expect the unexpected...

It's pretty entertaining - Joe Power looks like he's getting more and more wound up

 

[philkensebben]

I am. Joe Power is incredibly......oily.

It's great to see Brown using his powers for good, and not just to make money, for a change.

 

[philkensebben]

and now he doesnt want to play and he's taking his bat and ball home.

 

[thaiboxerken]

Joe Power loses his powers when a skeptical eye is watching, eh?

 

[philkensebben]

Sitter 'no'

Joe 'have a think about it later'

Lame.

Sitter 'no'

Joe 'have a think about it later'

Lame.

Yup, very sad.

All the departed can say is that they are "fine" in the spirit world. Why can't they say something useful?

 

[philkensebben]

Now he's whinging that Derren Browns a liar and so is the sitter lol What a bell end.

 

[Emerson Street]

Oh!

Its Derrens fault now!

Amazing how the spirits don't like to come through to people who haven't given their real name and address in advance. On the postive side I am thinking I might be psychic. I knew the 5 would turn out to be wrong.

 

[BobHaulk]

Joe must be mad, why would you let your scam be exposed on tv? only the gullible are gonna believe him now

 

[Emerson Street]

Oh dear! Joe doesnt seem to know where his own sister lives!

 

[Capsid]

It's helpful to have a sister who does the background research on your clients too.

 

[andyandy]

ha!

Nice ending....

Vonda who he's never met and did a pretty good reading on....lives next door to his sister!

In any case, with the internet now you could hot read most people with no skill whatsoever....

a but she's not dead and he's a medium not psychic

I liked the bit where Joe tried to distinguish himself from cold readers because he gives facts e.g "she drives a mini" Whereas Derren could only give vague non-facts...like she recently went on holiday to the Maldives with her ex-boyfriend. Err yea no facts there Joe.

 

[MikeSun5]

Lemme guess. BBC 4...

Why don't they show DB over here in America?

...I'll just wait for the crap pixelated youtube clips...

 

[Professor Yaffle]

Channel 4 actually.
