Brand new series starts tonight, I can?t wait to watch it. It?s one of my most favourite series?.

I?ve watched both the American version and the UK version, and I much prefer the UK version. However, I loved the little bitch fights in the American version.

Alan Sugar > Donald Trump (entertainment wise).

YOU'RE FIRED!!!

I didn't know other countries had coopted The Apprentice. I think Americans will have to rely on video sharing sites if they want to see the UK edition.

This morning I found out that American Idol airs in England as well. I thought that was odd considering they have the X-Factor (?).

Yep - difficult choice. I'll probably go for the football seeing as Lampard is not playing and we might get a decent performance. The Apprentice is set on Series Link via Sky+ so I'll watch it after the footy.

Top telly - Sir Alan is great entertainment!

I saw an ad for that while looking at the UK version of BBC (I was curious how the Iran thing was getting covered over there). I wish I could watch it! donald trump is such a douche (in a bad way) I can't bring myself to watch the american version anymore.

only seen the first series of the Uk version. and honestly do you really wanna see england bore you to death rather than watch the apprentice? i mean i hope they win and all, but at the same time i think it'd be darn funny if andorra pulled a draw or something.

When does Dr.Who start up again?

That's the only UK telly, I'm currently interested in.

Not a "yank" and I have not even seen the US version let alone the UK version of that show. Donald Trump just doesn't interest me all that much.

Andorra are like third worst in the FIFA rankings (not that they?re overly accurate) at around 163rd IIRC. They have the smallest international stadium capacity at around 10,000. If we lose against them, I might off myself. :shocked: :p

I think their best player plays in the Spanish second division.

Steve Mclaren is the biggest twat, I hope he resigns soon, especially if we draw this match.

I think it's soon, very soon. But I hate the Dr. Who series, so i won't be watching it.

'American Idol' is actually the US vrsion of a UK show, Pop Idol, and I thought we ripped X-factor from you?... Who knows. Reality TV is a tool of the devil.
