It is amazing how many people say “I could do
that, no problem” from the comfort of their own
armchair. How many, I wonder, would be willing
to take advantage of the opportunity to actually
have a go?
Because of the very nature of the programme we
cannot disclose too many details about what is
going to happen, only the fact that it is very close
to the recruitment process and training for the
British Intelligence Service. For me this just fills
me with a huge sense of excitement of what is in
store. I have heard through the grapevine that the
course will be as close to the real thing as possible
and will immerse the candidates in a world of
psychological pressure and uncertainty. Maybe I
have said too much!
Is it appealing to your sense of curiosity? Do you
want to know what goes on behind the closed
doors of our most secret organisations? Could
you cope with the psycological uncertainty of the
unknown? But most of all, can you keep a secret?
If you can answer yes to these questions then open
the envelope to reveal the next part of this
mission. You will need to take on a rigourous
application form to be considered for selection.
Then, and only then will the confidential email be
given to you to send in your application. Should
you choose to accept this mission and if you meet
ALL the criteria listed, making sure that you
attach a recent photograph of yourself, your
application will be considered and if accepted you
will be contacted by the ‘Top Secret’ agency
which is Minnow Films.
Most importantly, and crucially:
DO NOT TELL ANYONE YOU
ARE APPLYING FOR THIS SHOW
