"Trading Spaces" looking for Memphis homeowners

The Memphis/Shelby County Film and Television Commission sends us this:

TLC’s "Trading Spaces" is filming episodes in Memphis in January and you can apply for a spot on the show. Here's the 411:

"Trading Spaces," produced by Banyan Productions, provides two pairs of friends with a $1,000 budget, a professional designer, a carpenter, and 48 hours to redo a room of their choice. But there’s a catch -- they have to switch houses, and they have no say in how their own room will look! We’re seeking brave and vibrant homeowners to represent the Memphis area on these upcoming episodes!

The rules are simple:
1. Two people per team
2. Rooms must be at least 12’ x 12’
3. Houses must be within a fifteen minute drive of each other

To apply, e-mail sfinne@banyan.com, be sure to include what city you are applying for. A full application will immediately be sent to you. Please be sure to mention what city you are applying for.

All Applications must be submitted no later than November 11th (the sooner the better!) We will be shooting in mid-January.

BACKGROUND: "Trading Spaces," produced by Banyan Productions, provides two neighbors with the budget, a professional designer, a carpenter, and 48 hours to redo a room of their choice. But there’s a catch -- they have to switch houses, and they have no say in how their own room will look. Before work begins, neighbors write down how they’d like to redo their friends’ rooms; the designers receive these comments along with pictures and room measurements. Then, as soon as they switch house keys, the teams roll up their sleeves and get to work. After two days of grueling work, the rooms are totally transformed. Each team returns to their own home to see what’s become of their room. How will they react to their new room?
