Jimmy 0010 on The Cut special and online auditions

Helloooo everyone and welcome to what should officially become known as 'Watch-again Wednesday' (after all, with a catchy name like that how could you disagree?)
Below is yesterday's The Cut special which was broadcast to you from the open auditions in Manchester with a certain Jimmy 0010! Big stuff, right?
But before you watch that, it's time for some **BIG IMPORTANT AUDITION-TYPE ANNOUNCEMENTS.**
If you've uploaded your audition video and haven't heard anything yet, do not panic. Due to an overwhelming response, the casting panel are STILL watching the videos and have decided to hold callbacks next week - if they want to see you, you'll receive a phone call by the end of this this week.
We've also re-opened the online auditions for one day only! So get your entries in quick.
If you auditioned in London and you haven't heard back from us, it probably means you weren't quite right for the part - however, don't forget, we've got loads of other opportunities at Switch and just because you weren't right for Catherine or Elliot doesn't mean you're not right for our other projects. We've met you all now and have your details, so will be bearing a lot of you in mind for future stuff :)
Anyways, hopefully that answers a lot of your Qs. Here's this week's Cut Special, where Jimmy shows you how NOT to audition for The Cut.

I sent mine last week but if I thought that mine hadn't been seen yet and there was a chance of being called back I would need to let my boss know there was a possibility of me needing a day off.

I received 4 calls today but I wasn`t at home. I was wondering if the cut production were the ones giving the call? I was at the london audition.

My computer's still stuck on the online audition page and I'm desperate to audition, this is just my luck! Just hoping an exception can be made please?
Thank you

Ellesse and Grace - I'm soo sorry, but we can't reopen the uploader again. It's such a shame you missed out and I wish there was something I could do, but if we open it for you guys, we'll have to open it for everyone :( Keep up the acting though!
David and Harold - I'm not dealing with that side of things unfortunately, but Harold, am sure The Cut team will be in touch if they did call you and David, maybe email thecut@bbc.co.uk if you're worried?
Matt - of course, that's fine!
Thanks guys x

I was just wondering whether or not being contacted "at the end of the week" means friday (today) orrrrr, sunday?? May seem like a silly question.. but then again.. I'm a silly person, lol!
All the best, x
