What's it about?
Free tickets to TV shows, radio broadcasts etc are offered to the public in many different ways, via specific websites, in newspapers and trailed between programmes etc.
These can make a good no-expense afternoon/evening out for you and friends.
What to do
I want to tap MoneySavers' wealth of knowledge to collate an easily accessible list of sources for people to refer back to.
Please click reply and leave your tips in this format:

PS. Wright Stuff. As I'm doing the Wright Stuff on Five this week, I thought I'd say there are looking for audience members daily and you can go there by calling 020 7284 7710 / 7715. It is filmed in Bayswater west london and is live from 9am to 10.30 am

free tickets to a variety of shows...top gear, x factor, big brother
you have to be quick in applying for popular shows though and are often put on the reserve list, you are emailed for tickets to not so popular shows!!

I've not got tickets from them before, but this site is the agency that promotes comedy stars such as Jack Dee, Johnathon Ross, Lee Evans etc, and they have details of how to apply for Johnathon Ross show tickets as well as some others............

Try http://www.tickets.granadamedia.com/sf/tickets/whatson.asp if you like Ant and Dec or Parkinson. I've never been successful with this lot because I live in the Midlands and they seem to only post out to those in London or within easy access (though I may be wrong and may have just been unlucky!).

I live in Yorkshire and got some tickets for Parkie in April, turned up and was refused entry along with about 30 other people as it was too full. Had to queue for about 2 hours first to be told it was full. So becareful if travelling and make sure you get there early. Oh we had to ring them in order to get the tickets and speak to someone in person so they knew we had actually booked tickets to go to london etc.
Edit they where going to email us with priority tickets to any other show and we never heard from them...0
