A while back I auditioned for Millionaire Hot Seat. Cut a long story short, I passed the pen and paper test and did a 2 minute "test shot" in front of a camera and was told "don't call us, we will call you".
Well, I had that call yesterday! So I will be attending a filming session on Wed March 7th. Was told to bring a couple of changes of clothes etc and will be a whole day affair.
Hope there won't be too many astro questions :question:

thanks guys, I was given a 8 page instruction that covered everything from clothing (no tight stripes, small checkered patterns or dot as they strobe on camera) to the game rules.
now need to record a couple of episodes to see it. the good news is that if I don't get on camera (if I didn't ge a chance because the contestant before me won etc), I get an automatic invite to the next filming.

Keep us informed of the progress to the hotseat. The nerves will use up a lot of energy. We all hope you get the right questions to get you through to a big bag.

Sounds cool. When I saw the post title I thought you were on the 20yrs waiting list for an AP scope. :lol:

Wow, congrats Bo, very exciting!! You might make some nice easy $$$ for some astro gear. :D

If you have a BIG win, think of your loyal mates at IIS .... that is, the only ones who have replied to your thread. ;)

Good luck, look forward to watching it. Eddie drives me bananas so dont watch it usually. Will have to wear an Eddie filter that night. :help:

If I win big, I will take the family to the Kennedy Space Centre, or buy myself a ticket on the Vomit Comet :D
Seriously I just hope nerves won't get to me and I choke on the first question.
As for Eddie, well, what can I say?
I was in a bar where they are trying out a new robot bartender. One guy asked for a beer, the robot pulled him one and said "I am the smartest robot, what is your IQ sir" "129" said the man. Well, said the robot, perhaps you can explain to me the intricacies of the string theory.
The next bloke orders a beer and the robot pulled him one and asked for his IQ. 100, said the second man. "so what do you think of the current lack of political leadership in this country?" asked the robot.
Then a third man orders a beer. And what is your IQ? Asked the robot. "dunno, I think it was 50" "I see" said the robot "and what do you think of Collingwood's chances this year?" :lol:
