Windows Media Player works with these.
It will tell you that it's an unknown format and ask if you want it to go ahead anyhow.
Tell it to do so.
It will work.
It did for me.

Nice presentations.

I have to say that these performances are good but it seemed to me as if I was watching derren brown. It had that exact feel to it. If you were wearing a derren mask I would have thought it was him. Not that that is a terrible thing.

Nice work, I really like your website, I have a great deal of respect for anyone who puts there performance style up for public questioning.....you seem to connect with your audience very well and it hits them just where it should.....do you aound like derren or luke??? maybe yes but why is that such a bad thing, I mean if you were a up and coming footballer would you try and mirror David Bekham, of course you would.....wow did that make sense??

anyway I rest, good work good reactions...

Football in england means soccer here for us in the u.s. I watched your presentation of the hallucinated card, I have that effect and have performed it before, but I loved your presentation! Very nice! You're super smooth as well, do you have any acting background or experience?

Anabella are you talking to me? I was joking around. I know that Football in England is soccer in the USA.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your comments,

Please could you let me know where exactly I look/sound like derren?

I think that all mentalists at some stage will be compared to him (to varying degrees) but in my opinion I am not similar to him in the downloads,

Of course I maybe wrong - and not doubt if I was it would take others to point it out to me!

I have Quicktime and Real Player on my computer and I've seen other websites where I can immediately watch the videos. What am I doing wrong?

Download it to your desktop first. Then watch it. I had the same problem when I tried clicking on it.

Very good, Simon. Enjoyed it. And besides being English, I didn't feel you and Derren were the same.

I would be glad to point out a few things really quickly.

- "Would you be happy to do that?" Derren says this a lot
- The "induction" seems to be done the same way derren does.

there are others but I would have to watch them again to find them. Please don't take this as harsh criticism as I think that you are a great performer. It is merely observations that I made. I think that, to an extent, a lot of mentalists would have presentational quality's in common. IMO don't be worried about it. And theres always the chance that I am stupid and it was just the accent. lol.

Hi Mark,

Not to sure about "would you be happy to do that" - he probably does say that.

The only thing which I was going to comment on was my induction. As far as I am aware I am the only performer to use that particular one (counting down on the fingers behind the spectators head).

I think that most other perfomers use the handshake interupt instead.

Whereabouts have you seen Derren do the one I used?

All the best,

Simon

Brilliant. When is the TV show out?
You seem a bit like Derren in your hand/arm movements but that is not a bad thing.
Well done.
I would like to see more of your work.

I'm a Mac guy and it's called Safari, but I've never had this problem with any other website I've tried to watch videos on. As I said, I can watch Quicktime, RealPlayer, etc.

Your website looks identical to Derren Brown's old website.
On your website you are dressed the same as Derren Brown dresses.
You speak in the same way that Derren Brown speaks.

You are an 8th rate Derren impersonator. If you can't see that you are delusional.
