Goofs
Derren references the unbroken genetic chain from the people sitting in the audience all the way back to the first single-celled organism "seven billion years ago."

Single-celled organisms didn't evolve until 3.5 billion years ago, and, in fact, the Earth itself didn't form until 4.5 billion years ago.

Quotes
Derren Brown: This is the one life and the one body we have. We can tell ourselves a different story about it at least.
Derren Brown: We can be kinder to ourselves and therefore to others as well because we are all doing it.
Derren Brown: We're all telling ourselves those unhelpful stories, all of us.
Derren Brown: Everyone you meet is dragging around their own heavy case of bricks.
Derren Brown: What's important though is to mentally stop time and return to that present moment and how we're treating ourselves and each other in the moment.
Derren Brown: Because it's only the present moment that has the power to be utterly compelling and rich and vibrant as if that moment were you're first.
Derren Brown: Or as if it were you last.
Derren Brown: You are the miracle!

Derren Brown Being Derren Brown

First let me say you can ignore all of the negative reviews because they're obviously left by people who are too cowardly to come right out and say, "I don't like it when people make me question my faith."

Yes, it's a slow-paced show, but that's because he's taking his time to demonstrate each point he has to make.

Derren's specialty is making you think. If you're not comfortable with that concept, none of his shows are for you.
