phonecall from itv granada

Hi, first post here.

Got a phone call from 0161 952 1000 last night & in my hast of being busy i quickly rejected the call.

when i got to work this morning i googled the number & found it was from ITV Granada.

Are they likely to call back?

Thanks for any replies.

    Have you applied to be on any ITV shows?

    Hope it's something exciting for you :)

    You could try phoning back and say you were somewhere where you had to have your phone off or cut it off mistakenly.

    I have sometimes peeked at their winners page, and in the list of names they sometimes don't have a name, but say "still trying to contact the winner". That leads me to think they will persevere. Surely a reputable organisation like them would be as ethical as poss with stuff like this. BUT - don't let your imagination go too far. They will probably make the same effort for small and big wins. Please let us know, and fingers tightly crossed for you.

    I don't want to dash your hopes, but I read elsewhere on this site that the big money wins on ITV get calls from an 0207 number.
