Step into the Spotlight: Extras Wanted for British TV Drama 'Death in Benidorm'
Casting call this Friday at the Meliá Hotel for extras to appear in Channel 5’s exciting new series

Casting takes place this Friday, October 3, at the Meliá Hotel, with sessions from 10am to 2pm and then again 4pm to 8pm. They’re after men and women aged 20 to 65 from all over the world, though Spanish and British extras are especially welcome. Just make sure you’re ready to commit to full filming days and bring along a recent headshot (on your phone is fine), ID, and bank details for payment.
So, if you’ve ever dreamed of seeing yourself on the small screen, here’s your chance to join the cast of a sunny new detective series set right here in Benidorm. The town’s no stranger to the camera, having starred in countless shows and adverts, but this time it’s on Channel 5 - and who knows, you might even catch a bit of that mystery-solving action!
Why not pop down to the Meliá Hotel on Friday and see if you’ve got what it takes to be part of the show? It could be your moment to shine!
