MI5 recruiting new spies

Do you think you could be the next James Bond?

MI5 is recruiting new spies with the help of an online game which lets members of the public try their hand at being mobile surveillance officers.

Potential applicants' observation, memory skills and attention to detail are measured to give an indication of whether they have what it takes to be MI5's next top spy.

But MI5 is very particular.... men taller than 185 centimetres and women over 176 centimetres need not apply, as they may stand out from the crowd.

The same goes for anyone with visible with tattoos, and applicants' driving record must be virtually spotless.
