Derren's 'prediction'

Last week, illusionist Derren Brown apparently predicted the national lottery numbers live on television. In a later show, he claimed that it all came down to mathematics, which has since caused much debate and deliberation amongst the general public.

Despite explaining how he did it, many still don't believe Derren Brown and are certain that it was all a set up or some sort of split camera trick. Some even decided that all possible variations were filmed, and the right one was shown on television - I'm not sure what is actually going through some people's minds.

I'm not entirely sure how Brown successfully carried out this trick, but I'm almost certain that it wasn't a mere camera trick - that's just not what Derren Brown's about. Having watched him live on stage, it's clear how skilled Brown is, and I'm pretty sure he wouldn't risk losing fans and jeopardizing his career on a pointless facade.
