Thank you for posting this - I hadn't seen this interview before. Derren is one of my absolute heroes. Aside from the fact that his work is simply breathtaking, I love the fact that he is never unkind to people - he teases and has fun, he certainly makes us aware of our fallibility, but is never cruel or belittling. Hero at 30,000 Feet and Apocalypse, in particular, both took people whose lives were in a rut and made them discover something quite extraordinary in themselves. Even Assassin, Gameshow and Pushed to the Edge, which on the face of it seemed quite brutal, made the participants (certainly this viewer!) look at themselves with renewed thoughtfulness. The thoroughness and attention to detail in the shows is exquisite. There are very few famous people I would care to meet, but Derren Brown and Stephen Fry are most definitely on my list!!
Sharon Roache I have met him too and he is one of the most humblest charming and gentlest people you could meet. Really polite and happy to talk to you without any deluded sense of self importance or arrogance. He also does this really cute little nod with his head every so often 💕💕💕❤️❤️❤️
@@greenkitty82 you couldn't have said it better it was only a short meeting but left a good impression. A gentleman . Well mannered and so sweet remembered my name . I didn't want to bother him too long alot of younger starstruck fans. Who kinda grated on me . A little bit. Would love to have chatted as person to person .
This is the most relaxed and vulnerable I've ever seen Darren. Almost like being a real person. He obviously knows the interviewer very well being this comfortable.
This is how he is in his everyday life, very humble and chill bloke. His energetic and formal persona is purely character for performance. I remember seeing him on the extras of a dvd, eating a full English and looked shy when the camera was on him. I'd definitely recommend the recent podcast with him, he's a different man these days
PolemicContrarian Legit if he isn’t lying in all his shows about the extent of what is real he could literally destroy the competition in any field like he would be a great politician, marketer, lawyer, psychologist, pretty much everything
Derren brought me on stage at one of his shows in Belfast alot of years back...got me to write a word on a piece of paper. Under his coat sellotaped to his back he had an envelope with a word on it. I wrote GUITAR His said ALPHABET Trick botched. Lol If you had seen his face
i would really like to see derren do more exposures of "psychics" i just watched "infamous" and he echoed the exact words i use about them, that they are despicable for targeting the vulnerable, the whole astology / tarot / psychic / medium thing needs to be put to bed for good, it's harmless in some instances, but people take this information to heart and act on it when it has no substance, the thick end of the wedge is that there are churches with congregations that believe they have been cursed by witches and want those witches to burn, that's christian churches in the 21st century, i kid you not, susperstition needs to be unpacked. derren does great shows, like his sense of humour, love that is concerned about the participants. more please sir.
Derren Brown interview_Rare unseen. seans right until you see it have been watched more than 50 000 times. i cant say UNSEEN rather it is rather SEEN alot.
Pick pocketing is one of my favourite pranks on my friends. I get the first round in and help my friend when they go to the bar for their round, take their wallet and pay for their round with their money when they can’t pay, but always make it obvious your using wallet and money to pay for their round
Derren won definitely in this conversation. I observed him carefully, and I noticed some unconscious interesting gestures, but WHAT THE HECK could be even unconsciousness in Derren?! :) Anyway, it was at his home, or somewhere else? Thank you for sharing this interview!
I know this comment is ancient, but I think you're referring to the head nodding. He wrote in a book that he started doing that for mentalism and stuff, but now it's more of a nervous twitch.
He does mention it in 2 of his books, tricks of the mind and confessions of a conjuror. It came up early on when he was learning and starting out in hypnosis at Uni. When trying to influence compliance in someone he would nod to agree with the person. It soon turned into a twitch which comes up on stage in front of thousands or with one interviewer. He admits in the books its now a nervous thing. The books are a really good read if you're a fan :)
Sophie I'm intrigued too... apparently as a kid.. he had many more tics... but got rid of those.... the nodding persists. He used to sniff loudly... and couldn't stop himself.
I guess it’s me but I wonder if that nervous energy he claims to have is part of why he talks so fast ? I personally would like him to slow down a little bit but that’s his normal speed so I should catch up .
OP did, too. And so did I! I think it's okay as our minds are trained to read clickbait titles now. See: Rare Unseen; Infer: not a massively well-known interview in which some subjects rarely discussed are covered. His title is catchier, too.
@@rageagainstmyhairline5574 I think it should be titled "Rarely seen interview as of the date of this upload but may well be viral by the time you are watching it in which case it will be neither rare nor unseen."
You asked and I answered. Derren says he is Gay. It doesn't detract from him as a person. If you have a problem with someone's sexuality ...its your problem I like Derren very much for his humour and clarity of thought.
Guy Hollingsworth (interviewer) is also a magician. In their books, they refer to each other taking the p*ss with articulate banter. I'd be surprised if there was anything other than respect here.
That might be true, there is not much banter hear, so i don't get the feeling these too are friends, but I'd guess Guy could just not be in the mood for it at that time some reason.
I'd hazard a guess that it's simply his style that doesn't come across the same as an interviewer, but flourishes as a stand alone drawing room magician.
True a lot of comedians and prefers are really boring in real life like just watch an interview with Harry Hill, he's really serious as Matthew Keith Hall (his real name BTW)
at 2:35 obvious lie by Derren - clue 1: "I DO NOT" instead of "I don't" - Clue 2: Touching the nose - clue 3: Check out his eyes (Thank you derren for teaching me, love u)
Zouhir Hamada why should he regret? It seems like he stand firm on the fact that being a lawyer was a total waste of time without sounding belitteling towards the interviewer since he is a lawyer.
Umm, excuse me? You said that this interview was “unseen”, but I can clearly see that this video alone has 131K views. So... What are we going to do about this?
The interview was in 2012 , how many people saw it ? As for the RUclips video as long as it isn't deleted there will be more and more people who will watch it. The question is : what was unseen ? The 2012 interview or the 2015 RUclips video ? An obvious another question : was the 2012 interview unseen ?
OK Darren I know this pandemic is your doing and I am a contestant on your next big show. I am ready to be un hypnotised. No seriously Darren click your fingers
Em_xo xo Of course they are. He's an illusionist. What I found interesting was that he admitted some of his explanations for how he does things are bogus.
Arcane Wisdom TV And that’s a fair perspective, but for me, I’m not interested in illusions or reality television, I only enjoy the psychological manipulation possible through hypnosis, suggestion, etc. So if I can’t tell if I’m seeing psychological manipulation, illusion, or just the prosaic tricks of television showmanship, it doesn’t do anything for me. That’s just me, though. No doubt he puts on a great show and is a likable and engaging showman, so I understand why many people would enjoy him.
Yha he seemed to be guiding him into insinuendo postulates maybe where he got a nervous nuerosis tick just remember darren im the fucked up one not you and please remember doors are not obligatory considerations you can walk in or out of them without having to feel responsible for me?
+Robert Andersson dont be a pleb, there is no class on hypnosis at any respectable british university, he means that he was studying himself, privately how to hypnotise and at uni he was studying law and german classes.
Robert Andersson the hypnosis he was learning wasn't the ordinary hypnotherapy, he was learning Ericksonian Hypnosis, the term "study" is applicable because we do offer 15 days training in the said skill, granting one the title "certified hypnotist" and the trainers usually travel places to train people.

I absolutely agree with you! Genuinely couldn't agree more.
I have a hardcore crush on Derren~
I had the honor of meeting him . He is an absolute sweet Heart xx

Don't listen to him saying "oh I didn't make much money at first"
He was already producing coins out of thin air.

His vocabulary is amazing.
Great interview. Surprisingly, he speaks so openly. Thanks!
Can you imagine him as a lawyer? He could of charged a fortune knowing he'll win every single time.
PolemicContrarian Legit if he isn’t lying in all his shows about the extent of what is real he could literally destroy the competition in any field like he would be a great politician, marketer, lawyer, psychologist, pretty much everything
lol, yeah, it would be hard to beat. also it would make a change for a jury to fall asleep on demand.
two of the great performers of all time ... this is a gem
~Derren has such a cute charming smile~~
Had the absolute pleasure of meeting him a few times and even shared a beer with him.. He's just as hunerous and genuine in real life.
Super easy to fall in love with Derren, such a lovely guy
Genuinely lovely.
Derren brought me on stage at one of his shows in Belfast alot of years back...got me to write a word on a piece of paper. Under his coat sellotaped to his back he had an envelope with a word on it.
I wrote GUITAR
His said ALPHABET
Trick botched. Lol
If you had seen his face
what make guitar?
@@HarryNicNicholas just the word guitar. Totally fucked him. I think is cos i take SSRI meds
The one person in the world I would love too have a beer or three with.
+ODanboy three way?
Me too, but I'd be on guard the whole time waiting for the shenanigans / tricks!!! LOL
The beers, not the 3 way!!!! LOL
ODanboy one would love two have a beer or three with him
The one? You must be very, very lonely.
An incredible guy..Very smart..Much respect Derren..;)
Hi, and thanks for this video. I have been to Bristol where Derren studied at the start.
No one asked
I think this is the real Derren that everyone loves :)
Really excellent interview success = talent + energy what a fantastic and truthful equation .Very honest and intimate interview
I wanna be like Derren~
How to feel at ease with such a reserved and self-contained man.
Why didnt he ask what the act was that he wanted to do, but couldn't due to legal/moral reasons 😣
Em_xo xo Exactly.
Em_xo xo Right? How do you let THAT hang?
Em_xo xo it was probably just hanging people and trying to convince them they aren’t dying XD
i would really like to see derren do more exposures of "psychics" i just watched "infamous" and he echoed the exact words i use about them, that they are despicable for targeting the vulnerable, the whole astology / tarot / psychic / medium thing needs to be put to bed for good, it's harmless in some instances, but people take this information to heart and act on it when it has no substance, the thick end of the wedge is that there are churches with congregations that believe they have been cursed by witches and want those witches to burn, that's christian churches in the 21st century, i kid you not, susperstition needs to be unpacked.

Derren brown is the best on the planet
The dog is totally hypnotised (I know).
I'm intrigued about Derren's nodding thing -- is it a random reflex, or something more mysterious? o.O
He does mention it in 2 of his books, tricks of the mind and confessions of a conjuror.
It came up early on when he was learning and starting out in hypnosis at Uni. When trying to influence compliance in someone he would nod to agree with the person. It soon turned into a twitch which comes up on stage in front of thousands or with one interviewer. He admits in the books its now a nervous thing.
The books are a really good read if you're a fan :)
It is a direct link to Satan.
Sophie I'm intrigued too... apparently as a kid.. he had many more tics... but got rid of those.... the nodding persists. He used to sniff loudly... and couldn't stop himself.
Eloise Morris+ thank you for the recommended reading I will check it out. ; )
I've noticed that too I wondered was it part of the hypnosis technique
Who is he talking about at 17:17?
(It took me a number of searches to figure out there wasn't a "Burr Glass" but there was a David Berglas.)
It is true... he can develop ticks and one of his ticks is to node from time to time.
Is that dog alright. He didn't move during the whole interview! Sat between Derren and Guy. Has no one else noticed this????
+sunny sim now that you mentioned hahhahahahahha..probably hypnotized :P :P
+sunny sim Derren collects stuffed animals including dead pets. This was shot in his house so that's most likely one of his collections.
+sunny sim, it's stuffed. Watch the "behind the mischief' interview where he takes you through his house and it's full of taxidermied animals.
Thank you I was trying to remember the name of the show but couldn't
sunny sim it's stuffed! Derren is fascinated with taxidermy
Thats the 1st time I've ever noticed that derren has a tic with his head..
I guess it’s me but I wonder if that nervous energy he claims to have is part of why he talks so fast ?
I personally would like him to slow down a little bit but that’s his normal speed so I should catch up .
Bear grylls, Derren and Robert downey..idk why..but they look a bit similar. And yes Derren is my all time favourite
You can't really call a video "rare" and "unseen"..
As of 3/3/2018 87,553views on RUclips is rare or unseen? lol, it did get me to click on it I'll have to admit.
OP did, too. And so did I!
I think it's okay as our minds are trained to read clickbait titles now. See: Rare Unseen; Infer: not a massively well-known interview in which some subjects rarely discussed are covered. His title is catchier, too.
Yes, you can.
Can, did, possibly even true enough.
@@rageagainstmyhairline5574 I think it should be titled "Rarely seen interview as of the date of this upload but may well be viral by the time you are watching it in which case it will be neither rare nor unseen."
He did Law and German at Bristol Uni but when there took up hypnotism as a hobbie. You can't study hypnotism at uni!
Fighting Bull No he was studying and took up magic and hypnotism on the side. He did shows at Uni.
"rare unseen interview"...100k views, seems legit.
first.
somebody get boiling water... the interviewer is giving birth out of his neck
You did quite well Derren, who is the guy interviewing you?
Toby Ruddock guy hollingworth
Tee Hee
Very magical cool inChrist always chubby bill page illusionist magician in fun
Yeah, I agree.
+Bill Page You read my mind!
It's never been confirmed but I'm sure his real name is Darren and his stage name is Derren or even Derek
Anyone know more about more about this idea for a show that the legal department would not let him try? I'd love to know more.
Toad Lash is he gay
yes
Hes not
You asked and I answered. Derren says he is Gay. It doesn't detract from him as a person. If you have a problem with someone's sexuality ...its your problem
I like Derren very much for his humour and clarity of thought.
No i love derren
Is it just me, or does this interviewer sound similar to Derren
Unseen by 104,551 viewers
Anyone get the feeling the interviewer doesn't like Derren?
Yeah. The video dose say "my friend" interviewing him, so he might of been nagged into it and he dose seem a bit uninterested in him too.

Zouhir Hamada why should he regret?
It seems like he stand firm on the fact that being a lawyer was a total waste of time without sounding belitteling towards the interviewer since he is a lawyer.
Have you ever had to scratch your nose?
He answers that way because he knows it was a tongue in cheek question, it was the interviewers subtle humour, which Derren understood and enjoyed.
Gary McCaffrey absolutely. these nitwits misreading the mood of the interviewer in the comments on here is ludicrous.
ToPayIsToFail Absolutely, alot of people seem to be misreading this shiznitz
"The great unfinished" lol...
Guy has the same style of speaking as Derren.
Umm, excuse me? You said that this interview was “unseen”, but I can clearly see that this video alone has 131K views. So... What are we going to do about this?

30 minutes of asking Derren Brown about other people. Unfortunate.
The interviewer is so obviously jealous of Derren.
Mark walsh the interviewer is a friend of Derrens
Pedantic, not pernickety. There is a difference. LMHO!
John Forde Comedy gold!
he was being a little, er, OCD.
unseen->49.702 views :D
Just come out @19 show of hands
They have exactly the same voice.
They dont lmao
Derren is more emotive and higher pitch
They have completely different accents.
the best guy
OK Darren I know this pandemic is your doing and I am a contestant on your next big show. I am ready to be un hypnotised. No seriously Darren click your fingers
the worst interview questions ever ask interesting leading questions rather than trudging over the same ground
happy christmas
i like it
Did he just admit some of his acts are "giant hoaxes?"
Em_xo xo Of course they are. He's an illusionist. What I found interesting was that he admitted some of his explanations for how he does things are bogus.
Arcane Wisdom TV For me, that makes his stuff wholly uninteresting.
Jennifer Scott-Checki It makes me for intrigued. Trying to figure out where the deception really lies.
