SKY One's outrageous dating show, The Villa, is looking for contestants in the North-East.

The show takes four single men and women to a luxury villa in the Mediterranean for a week.

All their details are put into a match-making computer programme so, in theory, each should find their perfect match, but as viewers will know, things do not always go to plan.

The Villa provided some entertaining results during the last two series, and at least one of the four couples found lasting romance.

Auditions will be staged at The Thistle Newcastle Hotel, Neville Street, on Wednesday, April 25, from 12pm to 7.30pm.
