Get Creative with Neighbours!

[neighboursfansite]

Hey everyone

I just found this on Five's website:

We are looking for the biggest fans and the best new writing talent to join a trial that will explore how online audiences can participate in the the creative development of the hit Australian drama Neighbours.

This will be your chance to see how your favourite television show is written, and take part in the process.

We're looking for UK fans to:
- watch exclusive Neighbours episodes not yet seen on UK television
- explore the Neighbours universe in an online environment where you can explore off-camera phone conversations, SMS, email and blog entries
- get involved in the writing of the show by suggesting storylines, writing dialogue and recording your own material
- help us rate the contributions of both the professional writing team and fellow fans
- give us feedback on how you find the writing process

As well as giving your exclusive access to the future storylines you'll also have the opportunity to get real feedback from the professional writers behind Neighbours and The Bill. We'll also be offering a variety of prizes including flights to Australia, cash prizes and exclusive Neighbours goodies.

This trial will be home-based allowing you to manage your participation in your own spare time. To take part you'll need a home computer, a broadband connection and approximately 8 spare hours a week over a three week period. Some participants will also be invited to a post-trial workshop at our London Head Office.

If you are interested send your name, age, home town and a contact telephone number to [e-mail]

Sounds good! I've already entered ;D

Awwww you should go for it kk4ever. You never know unless you try! What have you got to lose? Plus you might gain some experience.

I think it's really good that this is happening. It just goes to show that Neighbours and Five obviously listen to their fans, plus it makes the fans feel as if they really are part of the show.
