(Sorry, that was rather rude of me, but things have been really ridiculous.)

Either way, I'll be back at it in the new year, which is like, next week. Crazy, eh?

So Happy New Year, and I'll find y'all jobs next week, m'kay?

They want people who haven't really got any contacts in the industry but really feel it is for them.
They need to be available for filming from October and will be given a mentor to help them.This is all I know, but if anyone thinks they fit the bill, then call 020 7534 0694 and ask for either Katie or Paul.

Thanks for that Phaeton.
