Now that the first audition stage is drawing to a close, what now? How long are hopefuls expected to wait until their phone rings with a BB producer on the other end...?

I auditioned in Glasgow many weeks ago. Went through every stage from meeting Mr Edgar to filling out the biggest form in history to waiting a room with a bunch of loons for up to 5 hours... How much longer do you think I, and many others, have to wait? Or should I give up and move on already...

[andybigbro]

No dont give up i hope you get a phone call soon

[Crystal-Rose]

wow! congratulations for doing so well in your audition!
I hope you get a phone call soon!

[Arneldo]

Give it a couple more weeks at least.

Good luck, hope ya get the call.

[Ruth*Star]

Congratulations on fairing good in the aududitions, i'm wishing you good luck with it. and i'm hoping you get the call.

[Siouxsie]

good luck to everyone who has had auditions

Hi there i am new to this forum and i like the first poster got through the glasgow auditions and filled in that killer of a form and i was wondering the same really if anyone had any idea when its been too long and to give up really.

i was thinking they wouldnt start call backs untill after the last auditions which was the weekend i may be wrong though

[trekperu]

I wish you all the best of luck

I am going online to do my audition and to my surprize the site has been over loaded so I am now waiting for it to come back online

[trekperu]

I am also new to this forum and I hate to say this but this site seems to be alot lot better than the channel4 forum

[andybigbro]

it is its much cleaner and a nicer place

[Matt08]

The channel4 forum doesn't have a good reputation, some of the members arent nice people and I expect theres much more restrictions and rules.

My suggestion is not to sit by the phone that way if they do ring it will be more of a surprize

[kevpac]

does anyone know if the callbacks have been done ?

or basically any info on the call back situation would be very helpful

[andybigbro]

No Sorry kevpac but i would only hope for the best

[Jonfonn!]

am new to this forum aswell..

It's too early for callbacks yet. If you haven't heard anything by the end of March then I'm afraid that's it.

[kevpac]

thank you i appreciate the info i can calm down a bit then

[kevpac]

ive just read elsewhere that people who applied should have heard within 8 weeks of auditioning

now i dont know wat to think

[Bells]

I'd just wait till late March before you start stressing out too much!

And either way, there IS always a next time, no matter how sick you might be of hearing it.

Good luck!

[andybigbro]

lol dont worry i hope you get in

[MarkWaldorf]

Good luck to everyone expecting a call back.

Well, 8 weeks would put the callback date sometime in March. Like I say, this is too early but if you haven't heard by the end of March then you've definitely had it. Don't forget, they've just received a whole new batch of auditions from the online e4.com. They'd probably want to sift through those before having the first callback. Get the balance right.

In previous years we've had some people hanging on until April still wondering. Forget it. End of March is cut-off, but you would probably hear before then if you've got a chance.

I don't know why they don't tell people when to expect a call. I think it's cruel.

Competition is tough. Don't be too disappointed.

From the Channel 4 website today (27th February):

"Thousands of you applied for Big Brother 2007...

Big Brother 2007 auditions and online applications are now closed.

Big Brother is currently eyeing over thousands of applicants to find housemates this summer. If you've got through to the next round, Big Brother will contact you shortly."

[kevpac]
