The Apprentice

Well, after yesterday's Budget we all know for certain that this country is in a huge financial mess. And then we watch wannabe future leaders of industry on reality TV and all becomes clear...

Pants Man?! Bright green cereal packaging they didn't even get round to designing? And to top it all, a self-combusting team with two apparent passengers and not the slightest spark of creativity amongst any of the members.

It's difficult to pick potential finalists this year. Debra is manipulative, Ben too pushy and Philip a bulldozing bully. The there's Lorraine, who seems like a fish out of water. I'm quite liking Kate, she did well yesterday.

But at the end of the day The Apprentice is compulsive viewing, one of the few programmes we all watch together in this house...

Ah yes, a programme designed to make the rest of the country feel competent!

I just can't get into it I'm afraid, I find every time I've watched it which has only been snippets admittedly, the competitors are just so up their own arse it's untrue. Oh well, I'll stick to Sponge Bob!

But that's what makes it so funny CJ!

But hey, Sponge Bob is good too (and could probably run the country better than the government or any of The Apprentices).
