Sky1 confirms Michael jackson seance

[wisdomgirl]

Psychic medium Derek Acorah will attempt to contact Michael Jackson in a live séance on Sky1.

Two newly commissioned shows, Michael Jackson: The Live Séance and Michael Jackson: The Search For His Spirit, will air in November.

June Sarpong will host the events, which aim to give fans "a final chance to connect with their hero". The séance will apparently take place at a secret location which was once inhabited by the 'Thriller' popstar.

"There is an insatiable appetite to find out more about Michael Jackson. He was an extraordinary figure and the curiosity surrounding his life - and his death - stretches well beyond fans of his music," said Sky1 director of programmes Stuart Murphy.

"These programmes will explore whether it is possible to make contact with Michael and will seek to give his fans new insight into their idol."

Former T4 presenter Sarpong added: "I think viewers will find this programme intriguing and will want to tune in to see what happens. It's the first time I've done anything like this but I'm open minded and can't wait to see what Derek uncovers."

Wow, has Derek Acorah still got a grain of credibility? I wasn't aware..

I got all excited when I saw the title of this thread, then I read that it was phoney Derek Acorah and (yawn) June Sarpong. Why do the management at T4 think we want to listen to a presenter who sounds as though she is sleep-deprived and takes ages to get her questions out? Why can't they have some lively young things as presenters instead? Why do they have to be trendily odd? :(

This is just sick.

How low will the mass media stoop?

:mad:

I find Derek Acorah a hilarious comedy act. Can't wait - even if it is a bit sick should be funny. Love it when he channels peoples cats and dogs.

Derek is, without any shadow of a doubt, an actor and congenital liar!

Let's hope he doesn't make too many gaffs like the 'Mary loves Dick' scenario..

I.e. Michael loves *Insert* etc. etc.

Talk about cheap publicity stunt in an attempt to bump up the ratings. What next, channelling John Lennon?
