Hi Derren,

I've two questions if that's ok:

1) It's been well documented that at some point in the future you plan on taking your Mindcontrol act to America and I understand the original series have already been shown over there. When this does eventually happen, would you expect to release the US material to the UK either in the form of a new C4 series or another DVD, or will we Brits have to make American friends?

2) In your most recent live tour, it seems you've started making use of a blindfold during Reminiscence - overall, one of my favourite mentalism effects. I don't want to stray into the territory of exposure, but was this move to support the method of the effect, or for other reasons, for example to ensure 'true ideomotor resposes', etc?

Thanks,
Mark

1) no idea as of yet. It's all up in the air. I suspect it would get shown here.
2) Erm... haven't used Reminiscence at all in the live show. Tried it a bit a few years ago in Bristol and dropped it. The only blindfold part now is the transfer of a thought-of number between two volunteers, which is a different effect and a very different method.

Hope that's OK,

You still use a "principle" of reminiscence in your stage show though?

If you don't mind me asking, why did you take the decision to drop it from your show?
