Have you got what it takes to be Bill Cullens apprentice:D
Who the hell is Bill Cullen? And why is Amanda Brunker his assistant?
Hes that guy with the penny farthings book on his life story.. He ran Renault Ireland licence (i think Renault took it back).Quote:

It'd be difficult to take Bill seriously after "The Last Word" famously lampooned him on an almost daily basis.Quote:

Dunphy ****ed up the other thing
I know the catchphrase 'You're Fired' varies in other countries. I really do think it's going to be a poor imitation of BBC's excellent version. Especially if it's TV3 doing it.
Thats his wife , who's probably 20 years old the amanda Brunker:DQuote:

Not taking away from his achievements with Renault franchise what else has he done? I suspect anyone with a car distribution franchise when the Tiger took off could not fail but to make money. Explains why car manufacturers not giving out those lucrative licences anymore.
The Apprentice USA employer, Donald Trump has a very own rhyming slang of his own.
As in 'I'm off for a Donald..'
He's a wheeler dealer invester type. Same as Sugar in all fairness.Quote:

"Yes Mr Bill, we are all Celtic tiger cubs who loving talk about target audiences and branding, and we all want to go to the moon with you instead of that dodgy bloke from Irish Pyschics live"
In fairness, he did a fairly good job of making a fool of himself on the last word last week;
saying "You're an oul Bertie Brack" and asking Matt Cooper what kind of a dub he was.
This will be great car crash tv.
Anyone have Bill Cullens book?
I heard it's full of stuff about himself that couldn't be true ie. meeting people that weren't around then etc.
