I'm sure a lot of you remember the whole drama with the casting for the bbc drama called 'SIEGE',


well, you will never guess what I have just seen on Star Now? It seems to be exactly the same casting opened again!

Looks wrong to me i.e. it is exactly the same... and 26th July isn't a Monday this year..

Maybe report it to Starnow and ask them for clarification?

Based on past evidence I doubt that Starnow has done any checking before publishing it... [-X

This was scrapped over half a year ago:

Next month it'll have been a whole year since the casting call. I know most others were frustrated with the hours of waiting, but I was excited about it for quite a while and think it's a shame it was never made. I wonder what the 'creative difficulties with the script' were.
