    It's one on the Wirral, I don't think they have them in other areas.
    If you're going to stalk me, while you're at it can you cut the grass, feed the dog & make sure I've got bread & milk in :D

    BTW I booked an 'update' appointment for next week! Luckily I saw this thread or I would have completely forgotten they 'belong' to an agency! LOL.

  • My son used to do some work as an extra - he used a couple of agencies - Mad Dog was one and also he used The Casting Collective. I don't know their contact details, but am sure a google search will turn them up.

    Yep, metoo. Anyonelooking at these money grabbers is advised to stear WELL CLEAR OF THEM. They are so bad that the BBC even did a feature on their Watchdog programme a couple of years ago. After I had paid my joining fee though!

    Do you mind me asking which agency you used if it is a reputable one.
    P>S good luck with your little one.

    I used this agency when my boy was a baby, If if had time i would use it again, I think i had to pay £20 to join but that was after the interview and they did get him some decent work. They do not charge if they do not take on the model. Give them a try they are working mums themselves so very sympathetic.
