Apprentice tops Kenny’s Frontline in ratings battle

TV3’s hit show The Apprentice and its spin-off show are the top dogs in the Monday night ratings war against rival RTÉ, drawing more viewers than Pat Kenny’s show The Frontline.

Last night’s episode of The Frontline was watched by an average of 333,000, people with a peak viewership of 473,000.

Last night’s episode sparked controversy after a member of the audience berated presenter Pat Kenny live on air for more than three minutes about his salary of more than €600,000 while he was interviewing Social Welfare Minster Mary Hanafin.
