Ah yes.
These will be the auditions for 'Britain's Got Talent'.
(I think it is anyway)
I saw this advertised on TV the other day.
Did many unicyclists go for the 'America's Got Talent' shows?

I think there were quite a few. I remember seeing brief glimpses of several different acts involving unicycles. The basketball group may have been a subset of the King Charles Troupe. They get around. I don't know if any, or how many unicycling acts were actually featured on the show, but they only showed a small fraction of the acts that auditioned.

Hey, you never know, it might work. Or you could use those phonecards you get from newsagents. They work too.
