Welcome to the brand new Filming Dates Thread!

I've been meaning to do this for a while as the other thread was getting a bit congested and it was a bit of a job to find dates, so now all the latest updates will be in the first post of this new thread for ease, for anyone remotely interested...

SUMMER BREAK (Returns Autumn)

*Dates in brackets are when they have filmed a 4-show day during the week, but not necessarily on this date. The 4-show schedule is reported to become more regular in the autumn:
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/news/a21 ... -deal.html


Weather Update:
What's it going to be like at the Dream Factory this week? Find out here.

BB= Banker's Birthday shows
ORANGE= Likely to be Halloween Specials
RED= Likely to be Scrooge/Santa Specials

Filming Times (approximate):
Monday: 9-1:45pm and 1:45-5:30pm
Tues-Thurs: 9am-2pm and 2-5pm (about 7pm from the autumn)
Friday: 8:30am-1:30pm and 1:30-4:30pm

do you know which are the Easter Shows?

Easter Sunday is the 4th April 2010 so presumably the Easter shows have already been filmed.

Banker's Birthday Week if anybody is interested. Shame I don't live locally as I would've attended The Banker's Birthday recording on my birthday.



There is also the speculation whether they will be recording in 2011 as their current contract ends in December 2010

I hope they don't finish the show

It's not up to Endemol to decide.

They are asking for audience members for tomorrow on Facebook but the forecast for Bristol is a bit scary, wellies all round

Well, filming went ahead, and I'm sure Mister Al won't mind me linking to his rather entertaining blog entry of yesterday's events...!

Scary looking at your avatar A

So glad I cancelled my trip to Bristol today as it has been snowing all night and the roads are very bad

I always buy my train ticket the day I book but I just kept putting it off, so glad I did as I would have been out of pocket by around £100

Hope it is not too bad down there today.

Loved the report from Mister Al I will mark it on the calendar and try to spot the people we know

Yes, I may change that pic round at some point - there are plenty other close-ups of me I could use from that visit, so we'll see.

Trying to organise another visit for February, but am unsure if they are filming the week I would ideally want to go (starting 8th). Hopefully Charis will get back to me later today!

Just my luck to be available to go on a week they're not filming... Oh well, maybe some other time!

Anyway, updated for the next two weeks, and they'll be getting into the summer spirit inside the Dream Factory despite it being freezing temperatures outside!

I suspect the filming pattern of 2 weeks on, 1 week off will continue now until at least Easter time.

I've just had an email through informing me that the contestant applications are now OPEN! and forms need to be sent to them by 31 March 2010. Details at:

http://www.dealornodeal.co.uk/show/appeal

Good luck to anyone applying - I might even think about it myself!

I'm surprised they want to do another contestant call. Given the current contract, I had the impression they would have enough contestants to cover right through to December.

Perhaps this is the last contestant call ever...

Get in. Thought I'd missed the chance to apply. Been waiting for the applications to re-open!

I'll be submitting mine very soon. I'd LOVE the chance to be a part of the show

The site keeps crashing at the moment when I try and register to receive access to the application form! No luck for about 20 minutes so far. I'll persist until sunrise if I have to

Edit: Still trying over an hour later It just loads and loads for ages, then says page cannot be displayed. I must've tried to register about 50 times now!

I'm going to apply again. Got the email last night, and have started the form this morning.

You have to be at least 18 to be on the show correct?

Crap, I'm not 18 till June.

My mum's gonna apply, but like you, Old Faithful, we're having some problems with the server.

Good luck everyone applying!

I think I've applied 3 times, but never heard back from them...

And yes, the server is really busy...

I finally managed to register this morning and access the application form. Plenty of questions to think about, that's for sure!

I can't get on the site again right now as it's too busy, but luckily I printed the form out this morning so I can have a good think about what I'm going to put for each question

The hardest part so far has been deciding what photo to choose! No group photos eliminates about 90% of the photos I've got of me! I've got a nice one of me on holiday with some good scenery behind me, but not sure it 'shows off my personality', which is what they ask for. It's just me sitting there having a photo taken
