Anyone from Northern Ireland going to Big Borther auditions and getting the train?

It doesn't seem fair that there are no audition in Belfast. I mean it's actually in the UK, Dublin's not.

Suck that you have long train ride. Hope its worth it for you.

I considered getting the train but the fact that I'd have to change in Dublin and may not finish in time for the last train home (being optimistic) has put me off.

So I might just drive down.

That will be fun.

BB6 Did and so did another series but I forget what one it was.
I also thinks its retarded how they hold auditions in Dublin yet let the Northern Irish vote and dont let the Republic vote.
There loss, they would of got some good contestants and good craic if they went to Belfast.

Heck dude I never thought about it might not being over. I really hope that it doesn't go on past the train time cos it'll be pointless staying for only some of it. Maybe I shouldn't go now :-(

U go for it and if you get to the final stages tell them that you are going to have to sleep at the railway station thats how committed you are ... u never know it might impress them enough to let you in.

But be safe ... either that or u could arrange with someone else to get a lift home.

They cancelled the ones in Newcastle and Birmingham in England as well.

I know we still have Manchester and London, but people are getting really put off by the travelling.

I heard Manchester was a real let down. One of the runners told me it was a pretty bad turn out on Friday and people were saying "It's a Friday, most people will be coming tomorrow instead" and then it was a bad turn out on Saturday as well.

You don't get a sticker until you pass Round 2, and at the end of the day they were only just going in the 300s. I'd say roughly 700 went to Manchester on Saturday, and it was more than Friday!


I got the coach to Manchester on the Friday, stayed overnight in a hotel, and then had someone pick me up on Saturday night.

How far did you get? I heard they were expecting like 1000 on the Saturday. There were plenty of people there on the Friday!
