Derren mourned passing of a TV volunteer

Have you ever wondered whether Derren Brown keeps in touch with former volunteers from his shows? Over the years, we have seen several indications that he does. One tragic case was the death of Wayne Stansfield.

Wayne was the butcher whose luck changed after touching the lucky dog in one of Derren's 2011 The Experiments episodes. Stansfield gambled his life's savings and won big.

Years later, in 2015, Stansfield died tragically, apparently due to the reckless driving of two young motorists. Derren contacted Stansfield's family, and also took to Twitter to express his sadness. You can read more about DB's touching response at ITV.com.
