I'm applying to get on 'The Cube'.

The application form is quite comprehensive and I wondered if there's anyone who has been successful at getting onto the show that could give me a bit of advice as how to best answer these questions ;

What would you spend £100k on if you won it (it says not to mention paying off debts or family holidays etc).

What three words would friends use to describe you.

What's your lifetime ambition.

What would make you a good Cube contestant.


Now I know you don't know me from Adam, but I'm looking for answers that would get me past the first stage of the process and get me an interview :D

Tricky one though - you want to stand out a bit without coming across as too desperate / weird.

Got to be reasonably honest as well otherwise they'll dump you at the interview stage. How about just answering honestly?

Be bright and breezy on the form. I got to the final audition stage of Coach Trip and got within a gnats whisker of being on the show. The form that got me to that stage was filled in as close as I could get to to having a conversation with whoever was asking the questions.

I think I have the form on my work PC so I will PM you parts of it tomorrow.

Very true.

A cross dressing, one legged hobbit look-a-like should do the trick.

Only that one time when he caught his dick in his zip. He wasn't just cross, he was livid.
