Ever wondered where television audiences come from, and why programmes need them?

The answer is, they are people just like you and me, and they are important to quiz and game shows which need the atmosphere a live audience provides. A bright and bubbly audience means a better programme. Among the popular audience shows recorded at BBC Birmingham are All Over The Shop, Call My Bluff and Anything You Can Cook...

To be involved in the magic of television, or to organise a group to come along to the studios, apply by sending me a stamped addressed envelope and tell me about the shows you wish to see.

The tickets are free!
