They never hold their phones to their ears. Is it any wonder all the contestants on the Apprentice have communication problems? This week the gemstones of Cuchulainn and Platinum are given a house each in Dublin City. The aim of the task is to increase the rental value of each property. Presumably the winner is made head of NAMA. Hashtag: #apprentice

Gilmore wields the knife, Kenny chimes in too. The Government slumbers in public and seethes in private. The Ceann Comhairle would like just one more week to see if the Greens will collapse the coalition and give him his last free trip, back to the Dail. You can’t miss tonight’s #vinb
