    What are people on about regarding Baz! - he's the only saving grace of the entire production! He's fun, irreverent, self-deprecating (and of the show), and an all-round great presenter, as numerous other people have said to me.

    He is quite possibly the worst presenter I have ever seen on RTE.

    He can't even remember to move the mic anywhere near his face when he is talking. He's fluffed most of his links tonight. How on EARTH did he get this job? It's hard enough to do live TV, never mind for someone who has zero presenting experience. He really drags the show down imo.

    Its been asked a couple of times so for anyone who cares the hotel is the Bellingham Castle in, go on guess.......... Castlebellingham, Co.Louth
    Usually a bit of a no no but actually looks almost decent on TV cos believe me the so called celebs are doing a much better job running it than the usual crowd :D

    She is very pretty and quite smart in real life. She hasn't had much chance to get on the camera yet - she was on cleaning duty on the first day. She deserves to get into the final considering all the hassle she got with the charities she was trying to raise money for.
    She got the road tonight

    So tonight's fiasco....

    Judges to Jennifer: "Well Jennifer, you've fallen out with customers and other contestants. (shoot to clip of Jennifer arguing with Patricia) You've also not been taking the job seriously and spend most of the time acting unprofessionally and generally being entirely crap."

    Judges to Claire: "Claire, you're a bit quiet (shoot to clip of Claire hoovering)"

    Judge 1: "We'll kick out Claire"
    Judge 2: "We'll kick out Jennifer"

    (Wow! A tiebreaker for the second night running)

    Judge 3: "Jennifer, you're entirely crap. You just go around annoying everyone you meet and everyone on the show hates you. So Claire, we'll kick you out."

    What is going on? Am I missing something here?:confused:

    Same crap as you're a star and other reality tv programs the first two judges must pick two different people so the last judge has to make the final decision. The second judge last night said that claire was crap but decides to kick out jennifer how stupid is that?


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,846 ✭✭✭✭eth0_


    I do agree we didn't see any of Claire's personality and what I saw of her she came across as an airhead. Her accent doesn't do her any favours either. I was shocked when my friend told me she was accepted onto a PhD in immunology in Oxford tbh. I'd never have thought this girl was educated judging by her TV persona. She needs to maybe take acting classes and come out of her shell a bit. For someone who makes a living taking her top off, she is very underconfident.

    He referring to Derry Clarke who voted to get rid of Jennifer even tho he siad Claire was crap.

    The deciding vote was left to Bibi.

    This is honestly the shoddiest television I've seen in a long time. Who the hell are these "celebrities" - breach of trade description act right away. The tv production is a disgrace, sure it's live, but I've seen other television companies do live a hell of a lot better than this. Mics not on, cameras swinging away out of focus etc. Jeeze are these people trained to do their job or not?

    Funniest thing was when the "presenter" told the girl that was kicked out to watch her "best of" (blatently stolen from Big Brother), and said "you are gonna love this". Then proceeded to show the CRAPPIEST video of her supposed highlights, which were her talking.

    And that "Baz" is rubbish btw.

    Utterly horrible, but car crash horrible in that I'll have to see how much worse it can get. And I have a lot of faith in RTE in these matters.

    That's a little harsh isn't it. She has a First from Trinity so her intellect isn't in question, perhaps just her demeanour.

    Now that's just prejudice.

    You are quite prepared to cast a superficial judgement. Surely true depth requires a little more consideration.

    F.Y.I. - dictionary.com can find no results for 'underconfident'.

    As a disclaimer I find the girl quite attractive and her educational background speaks for itself. It just seems she's such an easy target to attack.

    Wow. So Derry spent the whole episode rising Don then told him that if he was in the bottom three, he'd be getting rid of him.

    Don was in the bottom three and in a shock twist, Derry didn't fire him.

    And...in a most unshocking twist, Jennifer was saved by the judges.

    I'm beginning to think that Jennifer commissioned this series and by the end of it we'll have forgotten about what a horrible bitch she was on the Apprentice and we'll be congratulating her on her amazing journey on the programme and how we all love her now. She;ll be basking in her new career as a presenter on the Afternoon Show.

    I'm kinda glad Liz went though. She was not a nice woman.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6 dontknowwhy


    The show was much better tonight, they actually starting showing guests having a laugh and I will hold my sceptisism on the Don V Derry fight. Hopefully the improvements will continue but " ratings puller " Apprentice will drive us all mad before the end.
