MWR,
The next stage 1 for London will be held in early Feb 2010. I applied in late Nov as well and haven't heard anything either. So I am hoping to get into the round after, which I believe will be held in April (they come to London every 2 months as records show). I think the one held in Feb is for those who applied in Oct 09 or before. If someone has any more details, would be great to share it with us.
Regards
