You're right, I've changed the terminology to clarify this for people unfamiliar with Derren Brown.

Being a re-enactment and not a recreation, it also does not have “results”.

If you've watched it, re-enactment probably isn't quite the right term either. AFAIK the 'participants' weren't aware it was an 'experiment'. It has results, they are just extremely limited and not rigorous.

Derren has unfortunately been a big source of misinformation. I once saw a video of his at a neuroscience conference.
