Watching Maid in Manhattan the other night I found myself wondering how well it was rating, a thought which took me to the challenge facing the Ten Network and its near new head sherang Hamish McLennan.

I reckon Hamish has pulled himself a magnificent gig on the heels of having a very long title working for the Sun King, Rupert Murdoch. I am sure he asked Lachlan hard questions before accepting.

The answers would have all been shit, making the job a must do.
