Arcticle about the next stage of auditions on BBBA.
Rumours of a late march starts look true from this
Quote:
Behind Big Brother has learnt that the next stage of auditions are ready to begin, with potential housemates receiving e-mails asking them to attend group auditions in their capital city.
The e-mail congratulates auditionees for making it through to the next round, and asks them to make their way to a specific venue at 7:30am. Auditionees must RSVP to an generic e-mail address to confirm their attendance.
The e-mail then goes into more detail about the audition process, and confirms earlier rumours about the starting date for this year’s Big Brother season.
* You will need to make yourself available for the entire day.
* You must arrive and attend alone.
* No cameras or sound recording is permitted.
* You will be required to sign a confidentiality agreement on the day.
* You will also be required to sign a release form consenting to being filmed during the auditions, as well as a Criminal History Check application form.
* No dress requirements – come as you are, but be aware that the audition day will involve some physical activity.
* You MUST BRING THE ORIGINAL AND A recognisable photocopy of EITHER your driver’s licence or passport.
* It is your own responsibility to make your way to and from the audition. It is also your responsibility to cover all costs involved in attending the audition.
* A light lunch, tea and coffee will be available on the day.
* If you are eventually selected to be a Big Brother housemate, you must be available from late March to mid August 2008.
As always, confidentiality is a must with auditions and the e-mail states this clearly:
FRIENDLY REMINDER:
* Do not speak to the other applicants before or after the auditions. Do not attempt to contact any other applicant at any time after the auditions. Anyone found swapping phone numbers will automatically be disqualified.
* All applicants must understand that from this moment on you may not discuss any details regarding your participation in the Housemate selection process with anyone - work colleagues, friends and family or press. There are no exceptions unless expressly permitted in writing by the producers. (whoops!)
* This includes all previous involvement and future participation.
* Any applicant found to be in breach of these rules will be instantly disqualified from either entering or staying in the House.
* You should also immediately alert the producers if anyone approaches you regarding your participation in Big Brother.
