    more or less, a couple of years ago on that TV3 Loose Women copycat show. Something along the lines she gets recognised a lot when they were discussing being famous in Ireland and she compared herself to Jennifer Aniston in soe way or form. (and it wasn't a self p1ss take! There was genuine sincerity in her words!)

    Omg. Dillussional or what !

    Did anybody ever sign up to be an extra on fair city? It costs €40 to register with the talent agent but you are guaranteed a few casting calls. Was thinking of doing it for the craic.

    I commend her for that, as opposed to doing shopping everyday in local Spar

    In fairness most of us believed it was Ciaran! And that was 3 months ago!

    That reply just completely defeated the purpose of the spoiler in the previous post, I enjoy reading this to see theories but it's so unfair people spoiling without consideration for others

    It wasn't a spoiler. It still hasn't been revealed who done it. I am as sure as I was 3 months ago as I am today.

    There was lots of posts pre Sunday episode about the paper clippings about Tommy, they were more spoilery than this.

    They do a very complicated and in depth check in to your background. And if you have ever posted on boards.ie fair city you are immediately black listed. So sorry !

    I thought it costs 100 euro for a years membership and you are not guaranteed to get called either, that one is movieextra which talent agent is the one you are talking about, it's something I'd love to do.

    What if all the posts you said you were praising Fair city, why would they black list a genuine fan and who said good things about the show?

    I'd love to be in McCoys sipping a pint whilst Dermot and Niamh plotted against Paul beside me haha. Here is the details below:

    Do You Want to be on Fair City?

    Over 500,000 people view the show EVERY week.

    It is Ireland's most popular soap

    MovieExtras.ie are the EXCLUSIVE suppliers of Extras to Fair City

    We have an EXCLUSIVE Fair City only membership.

    It normally costs €59.95 to cover training, but has been reduced to €39.95 for a limited time.

    We hold training sessions every month in the Davenport Hotel, just off Merrion Square.

    No quibble extension - if you do not receive at least 5 availability checks for Fair City during your years membership, we will renew your account for a further year free of charge

    A training session for what?????????? A fee for being an extra?
    Keeping motionless while staring at mineral shelf. Walking round and round a 30 x 30 yard park.
    Walking by casually a huge row or a siege as if nothing is happening.
    Drinking an empty cup of coffee.

    For fear of using Sorcha Byrne's habits in bins as a term of phrase, but is this a p1ss take????

    Ya the training session is annoying, I'd have to travel up from Cork to attend it, I'm sure they could just walk you through what u need to do on the day.

    Its a money making thing. Not a very nice one, but one all the same. Moviextras.ie was born out of the increasing need for extras in Film and TV work in Ireland. Originally, productions did their own extra casting via a casting agency, but apparently this got too tiresome and in stepped this particular gang to make a lucrative sum from it. My first extra role was on the Committments in 1990/91 and I was hired without paying any fee. I got £50 a day while shooting in places like the Olympic Ballroom. Drank lots of free beer waiting for the set ups too! Took my direction from both the assistant Director and the man, Alan Parker, himself. Those were the feckin days!
