Psychological illusionist Derren Brown performs a highly dangerous feat - Russian Roulette, live. Filmed in a secret location, a member of the public chosen from a nationwide search loads a real handgun with one bullet. Derren then puts the gun to his head, and using his famous ability to read people he tries to determine which chamber contains the bullet... What powers will Derren use to dodge the bullet?

Psychological illusionist Derren Brown hosts a entertainment special, bringing together 12 members of the public to re-create a séance. Using a range of traditional methods, from automatic writing to the Spirit Cabinet and the Ouija board, Derren guides them through the various stages of a séance, using his skills and showmanship to challenge some of the most prevalent myths of spiritualism.

Derren Brown travels to the United States to try to convince five leading figures that he has powers in their particular field of expertise: Christian evangelism, alien abduction, psychic powers, New Age theories and contacting the dead. Using a false name each time, he succeeds in convincing all of the "experts" that he had powers, and four openly endorsed him as a true practitioner. The fifth expert, the Christian evangelist Curt Nordhielm, whilst impressed by Brown's performance, asks to meet him again before giving an endorsement. The concept of the show was to highlight the power of suggestion with regard to beliefs and people's abilities, and failure to question them. Brown made it quite clear with each experiment that if any of the subjects accused him of trickery he would immediately come clean about the whole thing, a rule similar to one of the self-imposed rules of the perpetrators of the Project Alpha hoax. His conclusion was that people tend to hear only things that support their own ideas and ignore contradictory evidence; this is known in psychology as confirmation bias. During the section concerned with religious belief, he 'converted' people to Christian belief with a touch. Afterwards, he 'deprogrammed' them of any such belief.

The Gathering is a specially recorded as-live show at a secret location (hidden from the audience) with an invited audience of students from Roehampton University, celebrities, psychologists, psychics, taxi drivers and magicians. It was filmed on 18 May 2005 and broadcast on 29 May. As part of the show Brown recalled streets, page numbers and grid references from the Greater London A-Z map. Pseudo-psychic "mind reading" and "remote viewing" activities were also recreated. During the show, Brown hypnotised the audience as a group and convinced them that for approximately half an hour after leaving the room they would have no memory of the events. Furthermore, the word "forget" was intermittently flashed very briefly on the backdrop throughout the performance. A variety of audience members were interviewed afterward; some of them couldn't recollect anything (but were nevertheless very impressed); brief clips of these interviews were shown. One of the most memorable stunts was getting a London taxi driver to choose a street in London and then choose and mentally drive a random route. This was achieved by drawing a line on a map of London made of stuck together A-Z pages. An envelope, which had been visible on-stage throughout the entire show, was then opened. This contained a card listing the page number and coordinate of the destination, an acetate with the route marked on it and a receipt for £8 (the estimated cost of the journey by the driver). He started at Buckingham Palace and ended up at Shepherd's Bush Green, the street where the secret performance took place.

Under the guise of a motivational seminar and a follow-up documentary, The Heist was a one-off special. Could Derren persuade any of his group of responsible, middle-management businessmen and women to steal £100,000 in an armed robbery?

The programme demonstrates how little it takes to cross into deviant behaviour, and is a masterclass in persuasion.

As Derren himself explains: 'I took a member of the public and I told her which horse would win in a certain race; when it did win she was intrigued and I did it again and again and she started to bet more and more money according to my system. 'She's scraped together every last penny she could find and she is risking it all on one final race. Is it really possible to predict every time which horse will win? Welcome to The System.' The show was shot on locations including Sandown Park and Newbury race courses.
