44 million, 300 thousand +!! Woooohooooo! Although that's not the sound my feet are making right now. They sound more like the moaning undead from any Romero zombie flick though, luckily they've yet to get quite as ugly as those shuffling fiends.
Speaking of zombies, Derren Brown's new four part series started tonight, the first being 'How to Win the Lottery'. 'Huh?', you might say so let me explain....
I'm not sure exactly when I first became aware of the guy but I remember just thinking of him as just another stage hypnotist like Paul McKenna and their ilk. It was only when perusing the internet some years ago that I came across his 'Zombie Video Game Prank'. If you haven't seen it then here's the link.

After seeing that (and wiping the tears of laughter away at the poor sucker's reactions to suddenly finding himself besieged by zombies), I began to watch whatever I could of Derren Brown. He is one facinating performer to say the least.
So, onto tonight's show. Firstly, I should mention that during the previous Wednesday night's Lottery draw he was broadcasting live on another channel. He successfully predicted all six of the lottery numbers and tonight's show went some way to explain the processes he used to do so. Now, already there have been various theories about this but his explanation involved a certain old phenomenom called 'The Wisdom of Crowds' which to me seemed reasonably plausable. I won't bother to explain it all here (what are you, lazy?! Go look it up yourselves ya workshy fops!!) but I will add that at the end of the show they previewed next weeks 'event' in which he will be broadcasting a subliminal film that will literally stick you to your chair! I'm asuming, as with all hypnotic suggestion, that this will not work on everyone who watches but I, for one, am quite willing to participate. I do hope he does release us subjects afterwards as I'd rather not spend the rest of this winter TIED TO THIS FUCKING COUCH!!
