Casting for Ireland's brand new soap - Red Rock - kicks off today.
Hopeful auditionees have been camping outside the John Player Factory in Dublin to secure an audition in the TV3 show which will be based in a fictional northside coastal town.
Queues are already stretching down the street and it is hoped that 500 actors will be seen today, with 300 more to be auditioned in Cork, Galway, Limerick and Belfast over the coming weeks.
