Question
Hi!
I wanted to ask do you have some good web site where I can find new auditions and castings in UK?

Answer
Petra,

Thanks for writing. I'm not familiar with any, but I have two suggestions for you:

1) Google "auditions in the UK" or "Casting in the UK" and see what comes up. I'll bet you'll find a bunch.

2) Contact the British Film Commission in London and see if they know of any casting websites in the UK that they can refer you to.

Hope this helps. Good luck!

Phil
