    Amazing how coming seventh in The Apprentice can earn you a career in Irish TV and Radio, up there with Lottie Ryan and Mairead Farrell

    The second last question was

    '"What is Michael D. Higgin's newest puppy called? "

    It should have been written

    "What is Micheal D. Higgins' newest puppy called?"

    Just watching now, not a bad idea for a show but that presenter is dire, she’d definitely put me off watching it again,

    Concept is ok but it's hard to watch with Jennifer squeaking and the forced excitement from the family at home.

    Oh my goodness have just seen a trailer for this "quiz". It looks like it will be awful and is been presented by the equally awful nasally Jennifer Zamparelli.

    Jennifer Zeppedildo has all the warmth of a prickly pear and the charisma of a shrill buzzsaw. How she has parlayed a thoroughly unlikeable persona on the Apprentice into a viable television career is one of the great modern day mysteries. Correction, it speaks volumes about RTE's hiring policy of vacuous narcissists with very little to say. Bombs away, it won't last a wet week.

    A brass neck and good shrewd skills in dealing with hiring managers would be my guess. Certainly not warmth or charisma in my opinion.

    Just happened to switch this on and have to agree about the bould Jennifer. Her voice is like a drill in the dentists.

    She is like a squeaky duck.

    A lot of the female presenters on RTE seem to think you have to shriek and shout in fake high-pitched excitement. Catherine Thomas started the trend. Wish we had Bibi Baskin or Doireann Ni Bhrian back again.

    Then this fact will get your goat up even more...
    Rte had no studios avaliable to film the show within its production time frame so they rented a studio from Virgin Media to film it.

    I'm not joking.

    all quiz shows should have an element of on the edge tension to it, this has none its as exciting as a bowl of porridge

    maybe if they have some rough family on from a council flat effin & blindin might make it a bit of craic, otherwise it's channel hop TV
