Could anybody answer this question for me.
When Derek was giving the interview to the paranormal radio station the other night he said that in an up and coming episode of his new show he was in communication with a live snake he says he told the owner of the said snake that it was very unhappy as it had been bitten by a rottweiller the lady who owned the creature said she didn't own a dog of any kind and was perplexed until she remembered that she had acquired the snake around a year previously and the previous owner did own a dog and indeed it was a rottweiller.
He went on to explain to the lady that the snake had been bitten around 2/3rd of the way down its body near to the tail and had skulked back into its case and self healed within a few days of it being bitten. The snake was wrapped around the owner so Derek asked her to turn the snake over and lo and behold he found the scar where it had been attacked.
Can anybody explain how he could have known this can you cold read a snake, this woman didn't have a dog so he couldn't have got the information from her, one explanation could be that it was a set up and the woman was a plant but failing that how could he have possibly known the snake had been bitten.

He may have known the previous owner,or failing that somebody else could have told him.
There is always means of finding things out.

Perhaps because he is a Psychic Medium..... and very gifted. ;D (Ooops sorry I forget you're all skeptics on here aint you!) |

Forgive me for being a touch cynical here but I find it very hard to believe that anybody including a person that professes to be a medium can communicate with animals and even if I believed Derek was a genuine medium i'd have to question this latest gimmick of his. |

What? no healing in this show  I am amazed as at his stage shows he gives healing, no one to date has ever come back and said publicly that he's healed them. Cheekygirl, I agree with you that the animal tricks are a bit far fetched. |

Seriously though, Derek himself doesn't believe in this nonsense. Just today I asked his wife why Derek doesn't channel Sam, speak in ancient Ethiopean dialect, this I would accept as a 100% way to prove his claims, for it would take years of very hard study to fake such a thing and I know Derek couldn't do it. Al it would take is an expert in Ethiopean language dialects etc to confirm that a native speaker was speaking through Derek to confirm. Gwen politely refused to answer, why? Because she knows as I do that Derek does not channel anyone and does not speak to Sam. He role plays thats it. Whether he genuinely believes he speaks to spirit or not matters not, for if only 1% of his act is faked then he has no credibility, and not even his biggest fan can admit that he is 100% genuine especially after the Kreed Kafer incident. He cannot defend that in any way because whatever he says leaves open a huge flaw in his claims. If he picked up the name psychicly from those present it means that his mediumship cannot be confirmed as he could be picking everything up from the person being read, it would also suggest that Sam is not real as surely he would have warned Derek he was picking up a ficticious name. Of course this all means nothing as only a fool would believe that Derek did anything real at Bodmin Gaol on the first episode of series 6 of Most Haunted. |

If it is shown how do we know it hasn't just been presented to us as a genuine reading, how will we know that the person he read for hadn't given information away in general conversation before the show or (perish the thought) a plant in the audience? Isn't Derek just jumping on the bandwagon of pet psychics, he hasn't been known for his links to dead animals thus far...oh unless you count the rabbits in a MH episode ;D Will he now venture further and become the "real" baby psychic  |

Amaris no I don't believe that particular episode has aired yet but whether it be edited out for the small screen or not the studio audience would have been witness to what happened I know from some of the posts on the board that members of TDA were at certain studio recordings so maybe the ones that visit this site could enlighten us as to whether they themselves were present when the reading of the snake occured.
The lady in question who owned the snake didn't own a dog and was perplexed as to how the snake could have sustained an injury by a rottweiller when she doesn't own a dog never mind a rottie but then she remembered the person who she bought the snake off a year previously had indeed owned a rottweiller, so the researchers or anybody else couldn't have gotten the dog info from her.
If Derek Acorah is a total fake then the only explanation for me is that the reading was a set up with the owner of said snake being part of the set up in other words a plant.
I'm in total agreement with you Amaris in as much as thus far nothing has ever been mentioned in the past about Derek Acorah being able to communicate with animals and I feel as you do he's jumping on yet another bandwagon and I dread to think what comes next.

Cheekygirl that brings me back to something Derek says on a DVD he did, I think it was "The Psychic World of Derek Acorah" the story of Sam. Derek does the same thing about his story of when he was a small boy and Masumai was his friend and 1500 years ago he was stabbed by a spear etc.. Derek goes to show a scar on his side of his body. That scar could have been from anything, an injury as a small lad or something else? who knows the same could have been for the snake it could have caught itself at sometime or Derek was just very lucky ;D I do not believe for one minute he was in communication with a snake.

Derek is hardly the best for recalling a reading acurately, he is probably embelleshing the reading. My guess is that it was pure cold reading, the woman made it fit, and thats that. Or it could very well have been hot reading, wait until it airs before asking questions. |

Ok will do Jon except I won't be able to see it as I don't have sky so maybe somebody else on here will be able to comment on what they make of that particular episode and hopefully somebody will put it on youtube for me to watch.

I saw a short clip of last weeks show and Acorah had this lady on the stage, he put the sign of the cross on her forehead and said "Your Psychic"? forgive me for my ignorance but that is a religious symbol used in Catholic ceremonies? WTF was that supposed to mean? is it a psychic code?
