Question from ASHLEY: Do you think being on tv has changed you at all?
Amanda Fahy (Shannon): I'm still down to earth. I don't think I have a big head or anything although other people may disagree!
Kacey Barnfield (Maddie): I don't think I've changed. I haven't lost any friends or anything!
Jon Newman (Ozzie): Sometimes it's the friends around you who've changed. They think you've changed because perhaps they think you're too busy for them. But no-one in the cast has a big ego. Everyone's down to earth and having fun.
Question from Daniella: What do u think of the popstarz hear'say?
Amanda Fahy (Shannon): I really like the song and they've done well for themselves. And they can sing live.
Kacey Barnfield (Maddie): And it's great to see that they're just normal people.
Jon Newman (Ozzie): I'd like to do something like Popstars. I've been in a few bands, but it's just knowing what's going to happen and where you're going to end up. You could sign up to something and then be stuck with it. So Hear'Say are extremely lucky because they've got an excellent PR company behind them. So I'd be so chuffed if I was them, to get a number one on Sunday.
Question from Alan What's the funniest moment you've had while filming?
Kacey Barnfield (Maddie): Once Jessica who plays Leah had to look at me during a take, and I was pulling a face, and she burst out laughing!
Jon Newman (Ozzie):Once I had to wink at Ian, and I can't wink, and everyone was in hysterics! It took ages to do that scene!
Question from Emily: If you won the lottery what would you spend the money on?
Jon Newman (Ozzie): I'd spend it on my new house that I'm buying in two weeks. And I'd probably give a lot of money to my mum and dad too, because they've gone through thick and thin with me.
Kacey Barnfield (Maddie): Same with me. I'd give loads to my family. But I'd probably give some to myself.
Amanda Fahy (Shannon): I'd probably buy my mum an Arsenal football box. And my dad would like a chalet in France!
Question from Tom: Where do you see yourselves in five years???
Kacey Barnfield (Maddie): That's really hard. You never know in this business. I would like to see myself going on doing other things.
Amanda Fahy (Shannon): I'd love to be a Hollywood star.
Jon Newman (Ozzie): I'd like a number one, three platinum albums - I sound like Darius now! No, I'd just like a few people to know who I am.
Question from Tony: If you had the power to change 1 thing in the world what would it be and why?
Jon Newman (Ozzie): Having watched Comic Relief, it would be nice to sort out what's going on in Rwanda. It was horrendous to see all that, sitting in your flat with four walls around you.
Question from Jess: Did you ever watch grange hill when you were younger?
Jon Newman (Ozzie): I watched it when Sean Maguire was in it. I really fancied the pants off someone but I can't remember the name of her!
Kacey Barnfield (Maddie): I watched it occasionally. I liked watching the old repeats with Tucker Jenkins. My mum watched it all the time when she was a girl, too.
Amanda Fahy (Shannon): I guess I'm the same as Kacey really. I watched the repeats, but later I watched the new series too.
Question from Laura: Please help I'm auditioning 2morrow and i need tips?
Amanda Fahy (Shannon): Be yourself.
Kacey Barnfield (Maddie): Be natural, relax, be confident and smile.
Jon Newman (Ozzie): Walk in, be headstrong, shake their hand, say who you are and be extremely confident.
Kacey Barnfield (Maddie): Good luck!
Question from Hattie: Kacey, do you enjoy playing a bully?
Kacey Barnfield (Maddie): Definitely! Jon said it's different to how you are, and it's good to explore different ways of acting. It's really good fun.
Question from Nalani: Are any of you vegetarians - if not would you consider it now with the foot and mouth crisis going on?
Kacey Barnfield (Maddie): I'm vegetarian! I became a vegetarian when I was nine or ten. It's mainly because I really, really care about animals. I don't mind people eating meat, it's just my decision.
Jon Newman (Ozzie): I tried being a vegetarian but I couldn't do it again. I really like meat!
Amanda Fahy (Shannon): I couldn't live without roast dinners on a Sunday!
Question from Helen Who is the funniest member of the cast?
Jon Newman (Ozzie): I think Lee, who plays Mr Hankin, is hysterical.
Kacey Barnfield (Maddie): Shane can be really funny, and Arnie who plays Calvin.
Amanda Fahy (Shannon): I think Arnie's funny, and Lee is absolutely hilarious. Sometimes he puts his glasses to one side and walks along when you're trying to do scenes!
Question from Louise: Do your parents mind you acting?
Kacey Barnfield (Maddie): Mine are really happy for me, and proud.
Jon Newman (Ozzie): I was 13 when I joined theatre school and I think mine were concerned that if nothing happened I'd have nothing to fall back on. Luckily things have been going well. They are very supportive now.
Amanda Fahy (Shannon): My mum didn't want me to go into this business at all! I don't think she saw a nice side to it. She said if I read a lot, I could go to drama school!
Kacey Barnfield (Maddie):At the end of the day it's up to us what we do, but I also put effort into my education as well.
