Yeah it will be expensive. But it's a risk everyone will have to take. I suppose everyone will be waiting to get a golden ticket from the paper. However it will be like BB7. About 20 people get the golden ticket. (They won't have to do as many trips like the auditionees) and then on a night they are all in the crowd.. but the BB producers will just pick the best one anyway. Personally the 20 should be put up online. And the public pick like 1, 2, or 3 of them to go in!!

You could get a callback.. where you will jump to the 2nd round and avoid a bit of queing. 3/4 hours of average queing infact.. just to get through the 1st round to the 2nd!

I'm not taking that risk. I cannot afford to. I'm a fan of BB but I'm not that desperate to go for it. I imagine those that are desperate though will be travelling the journey. Wonderful, a house full of absolutely desperate people, a nice refreshing change to BB.

You will have to bag yourself a "golden ticket"

The lazy sods.. well the ones not as sad.. will be buying multiple copies of the daily star to try and get.. THEIR TICKET!

To be fair.. I would love to get a golden ticket. Not sure if I would use it. I would probably post it to someone on here.

To be honest it's made me lose any momentum to even watch BB. If they can't be bothered to hold more than 2 venues then it limits the type of people that will audition.

Aww Ben. I will still be watching. You never know what the final pick of the crop will be. BB also has a small time scale to do all the auditions.

People who live in Ireland.. will have to get a boat/flight to us in order to audition!

I'm with ukturtle. This is pathetic. They should be holding auditions in Wales and Scotland.

But I do understand that their budget is extremely tight and they've deemed that it's worth the risk.

Ey. Especially with 500 grand at stake this time round.

I hope they stick to the 500 grand cheque. Have a feeling they may go back on their word and the prize money will be 100 grand.

I think if it is 500 grand there has got to be game playing involved. Or if they lose a task then the money goes down? I hope none of them give up and then the whole of the money goes down and that's it! They should'nt give up if they are provided booze, food and parties!
