thats the thing mate the runners dont know anything lol. its all down to the bigshots behind the mirror. the tattooed guy auditioned in manchester and i take it you did aswell? that was definitely him who you described lol.

the welsh girl sounds exactly my type. didnt find out her name did you?

i was surprised at the lack of gays and fake tits. none in my audition!

i had 2 black girls, one of which auditioned on a friday, and she was "spotted" somewhere, wouldnt say much though, one was very clever, a gay guy who was funny, a muscle guy who had a sob story, a loverly girl who seemed like a pole dancer, a dancer dude, another guy who didnt really have anything unique about him and one person pulled out last minute, and then myself, cant remember the other person!

although i havnt had a callback for the phys stage, i know that they have a trial house as well. I really wanna get on, would be such a great experience.

Does anyone think I still have a chance?

Dont rule yourself out yet Roo as the auditions seem to be very different every year by what ive read so this could be your lucky year.

well they can pick people out from any stage of the process at any time, so its not totally out of the question, but it still is quite unlikely i wouldnt hold your breath unfortunately!

nah if you are going on you will still need to see psychiatrists. but just because you havnt been called YET doesnt mean you wont be at all, it just means you aren't first choice, which is what makes it unlikely. If the producers trawl through the notes from the psyches for all the potentials and still don't feel they can produce a complete ideal cast, they'll call up some more.

do you follow?

Calling the psych thing a "stage" is a bit misleading; it's just a necessary requirement for anyone to get on the show, like the medical or criminal checks. I've never heard of anyone going to the psychs later and getting on the show, but it could technically have happened; but from what I know, even the late entrants had their psych tests at the same time as everyone else.

Hopefully one or two of the auditionees here will have seen some future housemates and reveal more about them on launch night

Haven't you handed it in yet?? They legally have to be sent to you within 10 days so I'd think they're just concerned; another good sign though

I sent off for it ages ago. Like July 6/7?

They said it can take maximum 40 days. Well I figure if they knew they didn't want me they wouldn't bother, so I'm counting myself still in the running a week after the psyches

They are still getting the paperwork in for everyone (i.e. even people who haven't had psych calls are still asked to update their IDs just in case) - probably suggests that psychs haven't decided you're a total psychopath who should be ruled out at least
