    Yeah well I never watched the english one so don't know how it compares to that, I would imagine its not as slick, but its good so far - I think so anyway. Let me know what ya think when you watch it tomorrow!

    Think they picked the right person in Bill Cullen, he's a good character

    Had a look at this myself, Have never seen the English version as i dont normally have any interest in this sort of TV but had a look tonight to see Bill Cullen. That Man is some inspration if every any of you get a chance to go to a motivational talk with him dont let it slip by. Went for an Interview for Renault Ireland A couple of years ago in that europa centre where they were in the show (Its the traininghead quarters for renault) Didnt get the job but Bill Cullen came in to do a 2 hour motivational Speech to about 100 of us there for the interviews and my god did i take alot away form that.

    Surprisingly good, I'd watched the US & UK versions and enjoyed them so was cringing at the thought of RTE's version but they've kept to the format pretty well. Cullen was decent enough aswell

    Enjoyed the show good bit of craic, they'll definitely step it up next week.

    When the lads went back into the reception to wait was one of them crying on the sofa rubbing his eyes with the tie? or was I imagining this?

    Tws quite good i reckoned.
    Will be interesting to see how it develops.
    Already "know someone who knows someone on it".
    Be interested to see if they can keep a lid on it as the show goes on.

    She was a right cow. Delighted to see the back of her.

    And then she says It was the only way they'd get her out of the house because she would have won otherwise. Well why did she do it so? The muppet.

    Rant over.

    I wouldn't mind, I only watch the show coz my missus makes me ;)

    Ah no, I hated her!!

    Can't believe she cheated though, nice twist, and then laughed her head off after she got the bullet...

    Me and the missus wondered if she was a plant from the start to get up the others noses??

    I'm actually disappointed she's gone. It was entertaining watching someone so completely useless (and somewhat mental) being that dillusional. The fact she actually believes she is something is hilarious, when she can't work with or for anyone.

    It was a joy seeing her humiliated. And her comments at the end of the show - yes love, we all believe ya :rolleyes:

    She's definently a few bananas short of a monkeys picnic.

    Ah Dub13 I hope you're winding us up about liking her!!. She was right wagon, delighted to see her go last night. Big deranged looking fake smile on her and "well bill I think blah blah blah BLAH". Her comments at the end of the show were gas - "If Bill Cullen got me for 100k it would be a bargain". Eh I don't think so love:rolleyes:
    God help if I worked with someone like her, there would be skin and hair flying. I'd be done for murder!!
    Although in saying that she was entertaining - in that it was funny watching her make an absoulute show of herself so she will be missed in that sense.

    Have to say I am dug into the show every week, I think it's really really good.
