Frankly Mr Shankly Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 The Apprentice! Yeah! What's a duster indeed. I'm really struggling to find a single likable character just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She really was the eye candy of the group, the NOTW will be devastated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beag_teeets Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I know, and it's a shame that girl went. She really was the eye candy of the group, the NOTW will be devastated. I don't know how she got through the selection process? A strategist and a lawyer who munts for England! Surely she was only put in so she would be the first one kicked out, a sacrificial lamb as it were. Shame that she and the bloke that walked out denied two places for some really objectionable characters that would've made good telly. The blonde looks "capable" and I think there were a few more with potential, stronger than last year anyway. 'Clough' - rivetingly brilliant! For an ITV programme it was! Really enjoyed it and as close to warts and all with Boycott talking about the drinking, I started drinking during the Apprentice and had to re-wind it when they put the almost subliminal shots of Sheen as Clough in towards the end, really looking forward to the film. I read the book on honeymoon a couple of years ago and it is pretty dark which was really bizarre lying on a beautiful beach in Thailand reading about a man's descent into alcoholic oblivion, in a way I am glad that the film has lightened the mood a bit. For me the best bit of telly last night was Newswipe, Charlie Brooker's new show http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00jhp50 I'm a big fan of Brooker and he might not be for everyone but anyone who manages to get the phrase "like a Razzle pile-up" into a programme dissecting news broadcasting is clearly a man of extreme talent.

leezyverpunk Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I watched it last night, loved it - made me laff and had a lump in me throat at the end - he truly was a unique lovable unbelievably succesful nutter - 'the best manager Englaqnd never had'.

jsslatic Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Eh? Put it this way, I wouldn't! What isn't there to like about a woman with a square jaw, f****d up teeth and the look of someone who's been hit round the head repeatedly with an iron? Gowjus.

garcon Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Yeah! What's a duster indeed. I'm really struggling to find a single likable character just yet. That's because they're all deranged, self-obsessed, insufferable s. It's kind of a prerequisite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 By the way, I watched 'Clough' and thoroughly enjoyed it. Bob, the book "The Damned United" is what the Clough family have complained about. It paints a poor and inaccurate picture of Clough. The film, although based on the book, is supposed to paint a much more positive picture. I guess we shall see. I'm suspicious of anyone who makes a "fictional novel" out of real events though ... sounds too much like a tabloid journalist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll be more shocked by the film when you see that Giles is a foot taller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsslatic Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Went to see The Damned United tonight. Not as good as the book, but a lot better than I thought it would be. I bloody hate Leeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw it on Friday evening, very good documentary packed with some fantastic footage, you kinda get the feeling that you don't want the programme to end - I have more respect for him now than I did before watching it. That's my view anyroad... I'd advise everybody to watch it, and if you've already seen it - watch it again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
