The first rehearsal was used as an opportunity to get everyone on board with the script and get a better look at their own roles.
The day started with Josh and Del going through the script, analysing what will happen in each round as well as the show as a whole. This would be similar in style to the first masterclass we had with Del Brown in the sense that we are breaking down the show in order to gain more knowledge on what the show will require from everybody. For some people this would be the first time looking at the script so notes were taken by everyone.
Some of us would stay in the gallery while others would move into Studio 5 to set up the cameras, ready for our first rehearsal. At this point I did not have a set role for the live show so I used this time to help others set up before making a start on filming the behind the scenes video with Ellen.
Standing in as the host and contestants we had Wez, Adele and Harry from the third year meaning that everybody else could get on with their own role or at least have a look at what's going on for future reference. A lot of time was spent setting up the equipment so we could only get through rough 6-7 minutes of the show, which given that this is our first rehearsal on our first ever show is very impressive. Though we couldn't look at the second, third and fourth rounds, we learnt a great deal about how the show will look even at this early stage.
