There is a News of the World article (or it could be the Mirror) that exposed him, when one of the stage hands delibrately left some information around about a certain place that Derek had never visited, then when he got there, he started spouting this information verbatim - as though it was the spirits telling him this story even though the stage hand had just made the stuff up.
I cant remember the exact details but if you type in Derek Acorah fraud into Google, you should be able to find some information about this.

For all I know, Derek may be one of the most gifted mediums on earth... but if the man does genuinely have some kind of spiritual 'gift', he certainly doesn't use it in his Most Haunted shows. Not that I've seen, anyway. It's hilarious. Here's a great example - needless to say, the last minute of the clip wasn't televised... especially when they all start laughing about it being a pile of nonsense! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEP0usvErRI

he started off in the UK as relatively interesting but quickly cottoned on to the fact that being melodramatic caught peoples attention. His agent(s) or PR people realised that he was very marketable in the US (bigger place, bigger bucks) & thankfully took him away, so he plays on their heartstrings & visits the UK occasionally.
P.S. Do you know anyone who's name begins with J? Or M?
It's a lady, no wait...it might be a gentleman.. . Look out for the tingling in your hair... if it hasn't happened already it will (in the next 60 years or so.... No it was a P. Is there someone here who recently lost someone with the initial D or B? etc etc.
Personally, I think it can be rathre cruel

i think of this is unusual that all of us ghosts can ever do everywhere interior the worldwide is pass a tumbler over a table or stamp on the floor- why do they in no way see ghosts turning the lighting fixtures fixtures on and stale? And this is ordinary that something 'paranormal' happens while the digital camera is pointed in the different course....

you will find many people have diferent views on this from believeing to not beliving. Me personly I dont belive any of it, i just dont see how its true but thats because I dont believe in ghosts or things like that, some will disgree with me tho.
