What Comes To Pass

Uh Oh..

If this BBC 2 advert is to be believed, the UK is getting the hit US reality TV series “The Apprentice”.

The American series offered the opportunity for the winning contestant to work for Donald Trump. In the UK series, the contestants will be fighting for the chance to work for Alan Sugar, the businessman behind Amstrad computers and the chairman of Tottenham Hotspur Football Club.

I never saw the US series, but I hope the UK version will prove to be as watchable as its atlantic brother was reputed to be. Lord knows Alan Sugar has a strong enough character to make it interesting.

Reality TV marches on.

Later
