There were five castings in total. The first, held in Winchester (to find local actors, as it was to be a Winchester based shoot) saw ironically Londoner Will Godfrey cast as Phil - Office Security guard. The rest of the auditions were held in London at Sweet Entertainments, Holborn.
Due to the large amount of colour CU's and ECU's and the diologueless script, it was essential actors had expressive eyes, this especially so for the main character Sandy Newham. Frustratingly for Squawker, seemingly fitting actors' ECU's from the screen tests did not make the grade. The "right" Sandy, Paul and Sean were not found until the final castings with the actors being all London based!
