Filming With Derren Brown - What Really Happened...

Derren: “Take maybe three big scoops of coffee…..” James: “HOW MANY GRAMS?!?!?!”

Youtube took me down a Derren Brown rabbit hole that lasted a solid 2 weeks. So much fun.

Hello James, I fondly remember the time you worked with us at Gaggia and I am always proud to say that you started your career in coffee with us. Lovely to see the Gaggia images on your interesting video. I think Dr Espresso, in London, may have some of the collection. We have a couple of the 50's machines in our Gaggia Shops. During this difficult times, I am sure coffee brings a moment of satisfaction. I am missing my community of coffee lovers, as I stay at home, rather than my usual time spent with them at a coffee morning in Huddersfield, UK, making lots of coffee at our church centre.

I always thought you were ageless, but honestly now I'm just more confused.

This is particularly funny to me because both James and Derren visited the cafe where I work, which is thousands of miles away from the UK, a yearish ago. Two of my favourite personal icons I've had the pleasure of serving.

That flick the bean joke was a good one.

I'm glad this video is doing the rounds again. It's an incredible story, love hearing it ☺️

Discovered your channel about two weeks ago and have been binge-watching all the coffee content, then I saw this title in my notifications! Super awesome you had the opportunity to work with Derren and Andy first hand. I co-founded a magic company back in 2014 and that team just filmed parts of Derren's most recent Broadway run here in NYC. So wild how small the internet makes the world!

Your videos brighten my days! Thank you.

Haha great video. I was meant to be seeing Derren Brown in Southend this year but we will see. I’ve been pulled up on stage on the miracle tour, it was weird and bizarre. Thanks for all the great videos as always. With everything going on I think everyone one needs something to bring the mood up. Good work!👍

Yes James, keep up the hope during this difficult time ! All thé best and looking foward to more vidéos !

This must be a wonderful memory to have. Thanks for sharing it! :)

Don't beat yourself up like that, James. You didn't look as ridiculous as your WBC getup.

I love Derren Brown and I've watched him for twenty years, but now after the flick the bean reference, it makes me want to go back and watch all of his stuff before he came out to see how often he snuck little jokes like that into his shows.

ooh finally, someone who actually knows something about coffee! Informative and entertaining, will be binging out on your videos all over this lockdown! Thanks and keep it coming :)

I'm studying, so I'm not constantly looking at the screen. When I heard "flick the bean off" and I didn't hear and immediate reaction from you I looked at the screen and I saw you looking at us XD You did not disappoint

This was very enjoyable to watch! Thanks for sharing that and the story.
