The Untold - I Hope I Get It
Teenagers Mohammed and Jess are both auditioning for the National Youth Theatre - with just a one in ten chance of success.
And the stakes are especially high for them, because they're a couple. Both are desperate to progress with their acting careers: Jess won a drama scholarship to her boarding school, while Mohammed attends a performing arts Academy.
Grace Dent follows their story, from the auditions to the nail-biting wait on results day.
