My cringe gland can’t tolerate the stimulation, so watching Kevin McC on 4.

They are selling art.

They are talking over the owner of an expensive bespoke music system who is busy demonstrating said system by playing some beautiful classical music through it.

"Is it surround sound?"

No, it's a ****ing iphone - what do you think it is?!

/facepalm

What annoys me about this is that it's all to do with selling and pitching, nothing to do with things like customer satisfaction. Everything seems like a seagull project - come in, flap around, squawk a lot, shit over everything and then leave it in a mess.

Isn't that the point of the program and what makes it entertaining?   I'm not sure it even pretends to be a serious program about finding Sugar a business partner - that's just a device really to give it all some context.  I love it.  Those facepalm moments are why people watch it.

There were a couple of classics on last night's episode:

<discussing a sculpture of a horse> 'It's inspired by nature'

and

'You're a work of art - unfortunately a still life'

lol

One of my favourite exchanges so far was from early on in this series.

When negotiating the purchase of some wine;

apprentice "What is the total cost?"

vendor "59 euros"

apprentice "Will you take 58.99 ?"

vendor "er..yes"

Maybe we should have used him for the Brexit negotiations.

But that is why the programme exists. Sensible people making good decisions and being successful isn't very exciting.

Don't fancy her with or without nut juice. Can't see her winning.
