PROGRAMME makers of the hit show Faking It are on the hunt for a Westcountry resident who dabbles in traditional dancing.

The show, which plucks individual from their natural habitat and gives them four weeks to master a skill well enough to fool a group of expert judges, is offering an experience of a lifetime.

In previous shows a burger van man faked it as a cordon bleu chef, a classical cellist faked it as a club DJ and a bike courier passed himself off as a polo supremo.

Now Faking It is hoping to teach someone who dabbles in traditional dancing a whole new talent and is specifically looking for someone from the Devon or Cornwall area.

Where they go and what they do remains a secret at this stage — all people need to know is that there will be an opportunity to explore an exciting new world vastly different from their own, but a world in which their skills could be transferred.

The factual-entertainment documentary pitches itself as a transformation battle against the odds.

It is partly about proving that with training anyone can do anything and that professionals are all frauds.

The developing relationship between novices and mentors lies at the heart of the show which is currently being shown on Tuesday evenings.

Anyone interested should call Sam Roubicek on 020 7013 4398.
