Well, after years of sitting there every Sunday evening watching the show and making comments like "I could do better than that" or "NO! Don't do it that way" and a whole host of other comments, the time has come for Guns to put his money where his mouth is
Whilst watching the show a couple of weeks ago an ad came on asking for people to apply. so I did
I only got as far as filling the first part of the form in when I saw that the cut off date for appications was in May! So I saved what I had done and left it at that.
The following day I get a call from the production company asking why I didn't complete the application form, so I explained.
"Oh no, don't worry about that" came the response. "In fact, we'll fast track you to the second stage of application" so they sent me a detailed form to complete all about the team, what we do, where we are, all that sort of stuff.
Well, days went by and low and behold, another call. "You have made it through selection and we will send you a design brief which has to be returned by July 9th" This was at 6PM on Monday the 4th, so not a lot of thinking time, especially with the packed weekend we just had.
So, the design is in it's final stages and will be submitted tomorrow. There are 16 teams being asked to submit a design, of which only 6 will go through to the show.
They said they would let us know on Friday if we have made it to the final 6, so I have my fingers crossed for a favourable result.
It would certainly be V Cool indeed to get on the show and it will be a great advert for 4HD as it will be filmed in our workshops
Well, that's all for now folks. I'll be sure to let you know of any developments
