the scottish guys was scarily accurate. the trainee mediums, especially the guys with the spikey hair was sweating bricks though ---- i'm getting the name jenny or jane, who's thinking of a change of house or career........ how transparent is that!

I believe the Scottish guy is genuine. He's more specific than the silly trainee
"i'm seeing a flower on a grave"
It reminded me of the Psychic on Phoenix Nights )
I've seen too many faked medium readings etc. that are scarily accurate with no apparent way of making them so... I mean just look at Seance with Derren Brown
the scottish guy was truly amazing though -he seemed real. unless the people in the audience are plants?
i really don't like people who play on others vulnerability and sorrow to make money.
btw - the scottish guy pulled up to the San Francisco gig in a long black limo. I think they make most of their money through book sales. £12.00 for a slim paperback.
I think if you mess with supernatural stuff like that, nothing good can come of it.
eg at one extreme end, they will point at a small group of people and insist that somebody wants to speak to Dave. eventually somebody will crack and and agree that they are Dave's bereaved widow, when they aren't.
also they use a lot of plants in the audience. and you believed them when they said not? silly.
also there is generic stuff and, like Derren Brown, reading people's reactions.
in fact a lot of it is very Derren Brown, half pure trickery and using plants, half very astute poker skills and reading people/leading them.
the plants must be damn good actors though. they sure can turn on the tears.
I love the supernatural and find it facinating although i do think some mediums are fakes.
lol
are there any other kind?
PermaTan man ) I'm sorry I can't take that man seriously
well yes, you can look ALL this stuff up. v. clever!
Mrs C likes these things and comes back from readings with stuff that is spookily accurate, but I dunno what else they've said that didn't make sense.
Oh and one prediction was that we'd go to Oz before Feb 2006. Bit precise that one and a bit far fetched. Can't see that happening !
Wish I'd seen it tho - I was watching Titchmarsh on t'other side.
Maybe I am being naive. But then again if it brings someone comfort at a time when they need it the most is it so bad?

Same thing for Nessie & co. (the monster not the forumite) :-)
Ooooh - I'm getting a black cat - does that ring bells for anyone ?
However, I have a colleague who claims to have second sight or whatever it's called.
On a work trip, she told a mutual colleague that she saw her with a baby. Said colleague had 3 teenage children and no plans for more (in fact, her hubby was planning the snip).
10 months later she gave birth to a daughter.
Hmmmm.
Both my namesake and I are very real, I thank you.
