Really excellent news!

There was me hoping I would happen to turn on the hotel tv when i was next in the states to find it on, and catch a glimpse of the show...oh well no more hoping! I will definately be keeping an eye out for this one, Sky+ series link me thinks :D and yes....I am a big fan of SRB!

Thank You for the Heads Up!

Cool beanz!

Really glad we'll get to see it, even if I know the outcome. But I knew the outcome when I saw Titanic and I still enjoyed that. :D

Havinf watched the show and not being a fan of this type of show,it was ok.The only part I liked was when it was set on Ulusaba Private Game Reserve..The wife looked at me and said we are going there.Other than that not that good of a show.

It seems that the US competition between Rebel Billionaire and The Apprentice will be repeated here. BBC have bought the rights to the latter and will be using the same format but with Sir Alan Sugar using the trademark "You're Fired"! http://www.bbc.co.uk/apprentice/

Anyone know what dates the show will be starting on ITV2? I've not seen any of it yet and can't wait to check it out.

I thought the US Apprentice was pretty good but i just can't stand Alan Sugar, they could have chosen someone much better for the UK version.

SRB is great in the show.

Saw several editions whilst in Orlando last November
