How to Be a Psychic Spy (original) (raw)

"How to Be a Psychic Spy" is the third special in British psychological illusionist Derren Brown's The Events television series. In the programme, supposedly as part of an experiment into remote viewing, Brown invited viewers to guess what was painted onto a concealed canvas. He later revealed that he attempted to subliminally influence viewers' choices by placing advertisements in major newspapers instructing them to draw concentric circles. The special was first broadcast on Channel 4 in the United Kingdom on 25 September 2009, when it was viewed by 1.8 million people.
