...and it was the most boring thing I've seen. 
Still, it's only episode one, so maybe it gets more exciting as it goes along.

You need to be more precise here, JB, and say it's the Dutch-speaking bit of Belgium that has the Apprentice.

No Threaded, it's Dutch, but not as we know it. The Flemish say they speak either either Vlaams or Nederlands. This is to distinguish themselves from the Dutch as a race, with whom they don't get on at all.We must strike at the lies that have spread like disease through our mindsComment

No.
You said that the Flemish speak Flemish, whereas they speak Dutch, a language which they refer to indifferently as Dutch or Flemish.We must strike at the lies that have spread like disease through our mindsComment

Ah, autre travailleurs independents...
Only found this forum recently and was going see if there was anybody out here in Belgium but an informed whinge about local telly and linguitic chipiness answers that one.
I just got cable installed here after a year, ostensibly to improve french listiening skills (not attempting dutch yet), but the quality of the francophone
telly programming makes it an uphill struggle to last more than twenty minutes - it all seems like community access tv. Still, free 'Art Movies' n some French channels after 10 most nights it seems.
On a unrelated topic - is defenestrating ones colleagues considered bad form in the belgian office environment? Just wondering as some people seem to have some strange ideas about continually gobbing of to people and then acting shocked if there is any comeback

No that is continentals, it is their way.
I always take the attitude that the continentals are not English, this attitude has served me well.Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

Belgium is great. I like it anyway (8 years 4 months and counting - although there was a period on the bench down en France). As for French language skills either get yourself a French-speaking bird (Wild Geese on Thursday night is a cattle-market), or start by watching the news. France 2 at eight o'clock is good. You know vaguely what's going on in the world anyway, and your brain makes the link between the commentary and the pictures, so you start to understand better.
