I did once try to audition for a small part, honestly.
I was working with a small team of "search officers" .. a "rummage crew" whose job it was to search incoming ships for contraband. There was a substantial supply of porn mags lying around the office and in one ( Playbird ) I remember it after over 30 years .. we discovered a request for men in uniform to attend an audition. As it happened, their office was in Dagenham Essex, just up the road. After a rather heavy lunchtime boozing session we jumped into one of HMG's cars and lurched over there in full uniform along with a tame duck belonging to one of the team... Yes I know this sounds unlikely. Unforunately they mistook our spectacular arrival for a raid and despite our protestations, refused our kind offers of 5 small parts ( and a fully grown tame duck) Well it seemed pretty damned amusing at the time .... less so when we sobered up...
