QuoteBritish atheist travels to the American Bible Belt to experience faith healing.
With the cameras in hot pursuit, Derren faces his toughest project yet, going in search of an unsuspecting member of the British public prepared to adopt the guise of a pastor and miracle worker.
His chosen one then has six months to learn the trade and flourish across the pond as a convincing pastor.
The final phase of the volunteer's extraordinary challenge sees them attempt to perform faith healing miracles live in Texas, but will Derren's new recruit be accepted as a faith healer or cast away as fake healer?

Now I confess, I've never heard about this bloke, but the show appears like worth watching. Just thought you lot might be intrested as well. :)
I'm a big fan. [swoons]
I read his book, Tricks of The Mind just after I read The God Delusion and he devotes some time to Dawkins-worship.
I hope to go and see him in the theatre one time.
