Really thought provoking as usual and the premise of the show was whether Derren could secretly condition someone who had strong anti illegal immigrant feeling to lay down their life for an illegal immigrant.
I didn't know about this one. The other one he did (The Push?) was fascinating. Bit sick though, tricking unwitting people to murder. Obviously there were no real murders but they didn't know that. You'd imagine that would cause a person some serious psychological damage...
Yeah, it was along similar lines to the Push. Real heart in your mouth moments.
There was a notice at the beginning of the show that the participant had a full psych evaluation before and after the experience. I can imagine the premium for the liability insurance for the show must have cost a fortune!
I'll definitely watch this.
