Stardom awaits

[Claw75]

I just said I couldn't make it and I am now "in the pile of applications". Oh well.

they just expect you to drop everything eh?  I applied years ago for the Weakest Link (yes, I know I would have been it).  Didn't hear anything and presumed my application had been relegated to the bin.  Then one day, out of the blue, about 2 years after I sent my application in, I got a phone call at work from the BBC. 

BBC "We'd like you to come to an audition tomorrow"
Me "what time?"
BBC "11am"
Me "sorry, I won't be able to make it, I have to work"
BBC "pardon?  can't you get time off?"

etc etc.  I said that I would have attended had I had a bit more notice, and they said they'd put my application back in the pile - never heard from them again.

I did audition for Countdown twice though - they were lovely and gave me lots of notice   Didn't get on though

What was the show?

[Indestructable]

1 versus 100, it is the new "lottery" show.

[Indestructable]

Call from a lady at the Beeb. "good news you have been selected for the recording of the show on the following weekend now, can you make it?"
Hmm let me think, 
"oh ok then"

Whats my %?

Crikey, I have been picked for the other show.

 

[Indestructable]

Well first show is this Sunday, chances of getting picked are slim, well 1 in 100 to be precise. But then it is down to how well i do as to the odds of getting picked next. For example if i am one of 10 left that have got the answers right then I have a 1 in 10 chance.
So now off to learn a load of useless facts including big brother winners 2000-2006 If i am not posting much you will know I am busy swotting. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

Spot on.

[Indestructable]

Well sadly no money for me. Out of the 100 that took part only 4 of us got to be the 1.
I might have stood a better chance of being selected if I knew anything about:
Jazz (I know nothing on Jazz)
Casualty (never watch it)
Fashion (need i say more)
Did very well on one show and reached last 13 and the 1 deliberately chose fashion to knock some of us out while he used a "pass".
Oh well back to the drawing board. To make matters worse the show on Friday has been brought forward to an earlier time which I can't make so not happy. The dream is over.

Hard luck Ed.

You can console yourself by watching the endless reruns of CasinoCasino...

Good idea, I need cheering up, time to dust off the dvd.
