Derren Brown with Matt Lucas - Trick of the Mind

It is a complete deck you can see there all the four suits are there. Mm-hmm I'll ask you if you don't mind to just give them a shuffle just turn them over and give them a good old mix on the table Now we'll choose three cards any three you want to use you're gonna get three goes at trying to guess all the cards Pick out any three cards. Slide them towards me. Okay Here we go No, that's too easy. That would have been on the top Those three Darren Brown You just shove all the others off to one side, that'll be great. Are you happy? I don't know what these are. Yes, totally I do now I'm presumably you're happy. You didn't catch a glimpse of any of them as you were going through them or shuffling Okay, fantastic Best thing now is to sort of ignore them really You know as a creative person as a writer that often the best way is to kind of distract yourself completely and then ideas kind Of pop up into your head for example Out of all the characters that you've played is the one that you look back on and you just like that did not work on any level Oh Dear right don't answer the question. What's the first card? six of clubs six of clubs Six of clubs. All right. Good. Oh, yeah the keys. Can I can I just have a look? Yes So this is I suppose you go anything. So what's the second card? Oh That's it. That's it. You need to grab this back Then I do need them. Thank you. What's the second car for of clubs clubs? Thank you For the record very important that there's you in these cards that you're naming now They are coming right out the top of your head as I'm talking to you right now.

Yeah You're close. Yeah And the first one you said Was the six of clubs? Going to live as I want to Oh This works because of what you've brought to it in terms of your sensitivity your creativity and if you like, does that make sense? Yeah, so as part of that, this is why I Brought this with me. I watched every episode that I could get of everything you filmed But even down even down to the older in-flight stuff you used to do with David and I took a guess at the three cards That you would think of all right This would not have worked with anybody apart from you Slide for it.
