Coco… aka Bobby!
Saturday 6th April 2013
Finally… after the toughest decision making in any comp, ever – we can announce that the winner of our awesome ‘Could You Be Coco’ comp is 13 year old Bobby B from Kent! Bobby has tons of personality and confidence – plus outstanding acting skills, of course. Her cheeky grin and friendly manner helped to seal the deal… and when her first vlog goes live in a few weeks time, I think you will agree!
I want to say a HUGE well done to Bobby, and also to the other nine finalists, Katie, Lea, Emily-Indigo, Omni, Ophelia, Grace, Tilly, Mia and Siena-May. Every one of the finalists was talented, dedicated and determined, and made Coco come to life in their own unique way; each and every one of them would have made a wonderful Coco. Although there could only be one winner, we very much hope you will be seeing more of the other finalists too, if we are able to go on with CathyCassidyTV after the end of Season Three. We have all kinds of plans – and the ‘Could You Be Coco’ finalists had some awesome ideas for making it even better than it is now!
Although we were asking an awful lot of our entrants for this comp, we had over 200 entries, and of a very, very high standard. Around 30/40 entrants have been ‘highly commended’ and extracts from their audition reels will be shown on CCTV in a few weeks time, as we felt they should have a little of the limelight too. Puffin have now replied to everyone, so if you haven’t had an email your message may have bounced back to us – a few of our emails kept pinging back, but we HAVE tried our hardest to contact everyone. If you haven’t heard, then apologies – cyberspace is conspiring against us! To EVERYONE who entered, well done – the Puffin team and I were totally bowled over by the quality and talent of your auditions. I always knew I had the best readers ever, and this has proved it yet again!
If you missed out this time, don’t panic – there will be more video challenges coming up, so keep a look out! If you’re not into acting, don’t worry either – our annual My Best Friend Rocks comp will be launching in June, and that could be YOUR chance!
And if you can’t wait until then, well nip over to CathyCassidyTV and leave a comment on our behind-the-scenes clip ‘Get Skye’s Style’ before Tuesday 9th… you could win not just the usual £10 New Look voucher but also the gorgeous, vintage-style necklace Skye is wearing in the video. Cool!

Can the whole CCTV team come to our school and do a workshop like we do auditions then u choose one person for each part and make videos with people from our schools as make up artists and wardrobe. It would be special for year 6 girls that read cathy books coz then the people who luv drama read them the people that don’t r really bad at drama and don’t listen or if they did they would do it worong

@Geg! Hi Geg! I really love drama to and in first school got the leading role for our school play! Ever since I’ve been taking part in a drama/film making club! Im also doing a play for the school talent show with my friends! Im glad to hear though, that there are gonna be more vlog auditions! I think that is what Cathy meant when she said about acting! I also asked her! My dream role is definitely Jude! What is yours? Xxx P.S. Missed Coco Comp:(
@lucie
Hiya lucie. You sound exactly like me. My dream role is probably someone like sarah( cocos friend) or kat. I have loved drama ever since year 3.

I wish i’d known about the comp! still, congrats to Bobbie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I trust the CCTV that u will make a great coco
Good luck to Bobby, I applied for Coco but didn’t get it. But oh well I’ll be in the video on CCTV!
Hi Cathy! Curious……. Who will the next vlog audition character? I think you should do a poll! Like a vote! Also, when would it be? I mean, the next competition! Also, when will we be getting the results on the Shay Comp? Im sorry, because I know it probably says somewhere, but Im not the most observent person! Sorry!!! Lxxx P.S. Did you get my question? Xxx
Hi cath it’s me again
I am so happy you have found the perfect coco for your CCTV cameras I was going to audition but I didn’t have time so my friend drawn all “save the world posters” for nothing but she said it was fun.
