In news likely to have more viewers returning to their favourite illegal BitTorrent sites, the bigwigs of TVNZ are still deciding when they will screen Donald Trump's much-trumpeted Celebrity Apprentice.
His all-sorts cast of 16 variably famous faces will debut in the US on January 3 after being officially introduced this week.
The oddest part of the ceremony is that the players had been known to the American media for almost a month. It perhaps indicates the sway Trump now holds - or an unusual outbreak of co-conspiracy between rival media - but it's been one of the best kept secrets in the US.
The Donald reckons he had 125 celebs busting for a crack at his boardroom and claims to have personally whittled them down to a tight-14, based on their business experience and acumen.
