You There! Be In A Film For The Olympics

The London Olympics are still five years away, by which time most of us will be passed our best and looking back ruefully on how we somehow frittered away whatever dribble of potential that we once briefly had - but the rest of you should think about being in a film for the Olympics.

We've just received this message informing us of an open casting call this weekend looking for potential stars of a film about the 2012 Olympics that'll be shown around the world. Here's what it says:

All you need to do is tell us a story about something you have achieved in your life that you are really proud of.

Stories needn't necessarily be heroic in nature, nor do they have to be about sport. We'd love to hear from ANYBODY who has taken on a challenge and felt the sense of satisfaction that comes from effort.

Have you:

• taken up a new hobby that you’re really passionate about?
• conquered a fear of heights by jumping out of a plane?
• decided to stop eating pies for an entire month?
• raised money for charity by organising a karaoke contest?

Whatever your story, we'd love to hear it. Come and visit us in:

Belfast
Friday 27 April, 11am-7pm
City Hall
And W5 @ Odyssey, 2 Queens Way

Glasgow
Saturday 28 April, 11am-6pm
Buchanan Street, outside the Buchanan Galleries Shopping Centre 
And Hamden Park, Main Entrance via Kinghorn Drive

London
Sunday 29 April, 10am-6pm
Olympia Conference Centre, Hammersmith Road, W14 8UX

hecklerspray won't be able to make any of these casting calls - we'll be too busy watching 24 DVDs and, besides, our proudest achievement involved eating so many nuts in one day that we basically started pooing great big nuts, which probably isn't the message the 2012 Olympics want to put across - but if you go to one of the events, let us know.
