Just a few days to go until the return of The Apprentice, which explains why photos of the 16 new candidates are everywhere.

However, here's a particularly novel way of introducing Lord Sugar's hopeful to a voracious TV audience: YouTube superstars The Brett Domino Trio have joined forces with Radio 1’s Dan and Phil for a one-off video which outlines the new faces in three minutes of music.

The video features extracts from the candidates’ audition tapes and is very funny. One of my favourite lines is: "They're fighting for Lord Sugar like they're comic book villains!"

Genius.

You wait for some fairy tale characters - and then two come along at the same time.

It was a far more enchanting start to Friday for a selection of London commuters thanks to Red Riding Hood and Prince Charming, characters that appear in Channel 5's US import, Once Upon A Time.

The US fantasy drama returns to our screens Sunday 7 April at 9pm so what better way to mark the occasion? I bet Red Riding Hood (played in the series by True Justice's Meghan Ory) and Prince Charming (the show's Josh Dallas) brought a smile to some faces.  

The British Academy of Film and Television Arts (Bafta) will bestow a special award to renowned TV director Hamish Hamilton at the British Academy Television Craft Awards.

The Award recognises his work on the likes of the opening and closing ceremonies for the London 2012 Games and, more recently, Beyoncé's Super Bowl Halftime Show performance.

I dunno; you wait ages for an urban drama, and then two come along at once. Over on E4, you'll find the channel busy with Youngers. But if you head over to YouTube, you can check out STEFFI.

It's the rags to riches story of a talented girl from a south London council estate who's plucked from obscurity and, seemingly overnight, finds fame and stardom.

Music-based drama STEFFI features a mix of young acting talent and music artists. It can be found exclusively via YouTube.

If you can't get enough of singing talent shows, you need to tune into The Africa Channel (Sky 209, Virgin 828) for Nigerian Idol.

Yes, that Idol. But with a Nigerian flavour.

Ennui with the likes of X Factor and American Idol has seen viewing figures for these shows drop on both sides of the Atlantic. However, it's definitely worth checking out Nigerian Idol which is simultaneously familiar and different.

It may just reinvigorate the interest we all had in these shows before there became too many of them.

The Ryan Seacrest/Dermot O'Leary of Nigerian Idol is Ill Rhymz - he keeps the show together and will take viewers through all the highs, lows, tantrums and tears as we approach the live final in mid-April.
 
The judging panel includes dance/disco legend Jeffrey Daniel of Shalamar fame. Although an American group, they enjoyed bigger success in the UK, amassing a string of hits including A Night to remember, I Can Make You Feel Good, There It Is and Friends.

To those in the know, he is the very first man to perform the Moonwalk on TV (he did it on Top of the Pops to Shalamar hit, A Night To Remember).

In other words, he taught Michael Jackson how to do the Moonwalk. Jeffrey has been with the show since it began.

There is also Femi Kuti (son of the legendary Fela Kuti) and Nigeria’s soul diva, Yinka Davies. The songs are invariably those of global superstars such as Adele, Whitney and Mariah, but there's also a surprise rendition or two.

UK viewers can have their say about the show on The Africa Channel Facebook page (or follow Nigerian Idol on Twitter).

Make a date in your calendar every Saturday and Sunday at 9pm for the latest instalments.
