The Last Millionaire Episode 3

Wednesday, November 26th, 2008

Greetings from Glasgow.

I am really looking forward to tonight’s episode, as I know who’s going out, but I don’t know what they did. Last week’s show was very entertaining. And me and my friends celebrated Olli Norman’s victory with his mum in his bar in Glasgow. His hospitality and charm (wine cups like goldfish bowls) left us all nursing hangovers the next day.

Its Cairo tonight and I must say by now all the contestants will be desperate to get out. So the competition should really be kicking in and I’m sure the sparks will be flying. The guys on the show told me, that they stayed in a youth hostel where camels were sleeping close by, “Que Horror” as we say in Barcelona. The last time I was on a camel was Dubai, and they smell, and they are big and they bite. So will anyone be organising camel runs or is that the situation just for the loo’s.

So I will be tuned in tonight with my friend’s and my brief appearance on the show, squinty face, badly dressed, really is not quite me, or maybe I was that week, is enough for me to squirm every time I see the trailer.

A final thought…………….

The current business climate is tough, so watching 8 entrepreneurs battle it out in Cairo should be fun to watch. And what is the currency in Cairo ? Let’s find out.

Week 2: The Last Millionaire

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

I think the concept of the Last millionaire is bizarre. If you win, (which incidentally I did with my fellow co business partner for 5 days) you get to go home. If you lose you get another week on the telly, in Reality TV, and are given another business challenge in a different city. Tonight its Berlin, which I do know, as I travelled by train from Barcelona to Berlin and came home with a shiny yellow porsche, which has been banged 4 times since last year, nearly written off by an airport bus, and almost backed off a mountain in the french alps. I should have went on Top Gear. Berlin has a great culture, nightlife and talented artists. So the show tonight should be fun.

So the guys who come out tonight I always would have put one of them on the list of entrepreneurs that are instantly good in business, as you can tell this from experience, manners and approach. However that is merely my opinion.

The concept of putting business people to a competition is fantastic, however if an Alan Sugar was judging the show the round up of what goes on would be better.

In last weeks show you did’nt really see what we achieved, the focus was on the rows that James and I had.

As did every other partnership, and also my character is not really what you saw on TV. That was one sided, I do like to laugh a lot, have fun and could easily have been portrayed in a completely different way if I had stayed in for show 2. But the idea was to win and that’s what we did. So Times Online please do not call me a ball-breaker, although it possibly, might be, speak to people who know me really well almost true.

So tonight I will be watching in Olli Norman’s bar in Glasgow with him and some friends as I am sure after a long business, rainy day in Glasgow I will celebrate the winners tonight and watch my new friends on TV in the Last Millionaire.

Also, I will be doing more TV work in 2009, just not a Reality show.
