Audio visual? Saw this on OC, won't be watching it as don't have posh tv but it brings back nostalgic memories of trying to knock my little sister out with pillows 'sparring'.

... and as Huddy reaches the finishing line he notices the Gladiator's feet, and oh dear, the other contender appears to have won.

I'm so so tempted to see if I can get on it - I've heard what the qualifying exercises are and I reckon they would be relatively easy to pass (a friend of mine qualified before the end of the last series, but they axed it so he was never able to get on the show! How gutting!). Whether or not you pass it I reckon they just have a strict vetting of all the people whether or not you're good tv material. I guess they do it on the better looking, best achieving individuals. I just couldn't face being on tv or losing to the steroid freaks :p

I have done the qualifying exercises which are just part of the test's. When I did it they also gave us a podle Stick fight and have session in front of a camera.
Not an easy think to do on the day !

Yeah that's what I heard - the friend of mine that got through said something similar. They want entertainment afterall though, so you have to bear in mind that TV shows are very superficial when it comes to these sort of things.

Exactly, so even though you may get through all the physical tests. The producers then sit you in fornt of a camera abd you have to talk about yourself.
Even then there is no gurantee of making through !
