Yeah, some of the blokes seem quite switched on, but the majority of them are real fucking muppets. Surely these can't be the best candidates in the country?

I suspect they have been chosen as much for their watchability as their ability to get things done.

Funnily enough I actualy quite like the posh chap who led yestedays task, I was expecting to hate him but he's seems alright.

I cannot belive the girls didn't get their pricing right though, I mean come on why didnt they learn their lesson from the previous week. I would have though that would be the first thing to sort out.

That quote they gave made them look like simpletons

Wasn't a great idea to try and skank the customers for tips was it? Especially since they lost some of their gear.

Sir Alan is cool. I prefer Trump (American Apprentice) though. Although overall I think the British Apprentice is a better show.

Yeh it was, the women were awful at that task.

The posh bloke Raef is an absolute legend, I don't see why people would get annoyed with him just because he speaks proper, he's had loads of jobs, earnt money and now is providing some classic quotes for tv. He did well in the task, and like last week he doesn't bully anyone to get his point across, he can communicate well.

I suspect that some are chosen both for their entertainment value (as someone else mentioned) as well as their ability to be difficult people to work with. The show is a test of business skills, and one of the most important business skills is to be able to work with and/or control difficult people. There are ALWAYS difficult people in a business situation.

----------------------------------------

I like Raef. The guy may be very confident, but that is a necessity in any leader. Someone who is very confident may or may not be followed by the people below him (depending on whether they think its over confidence or not), but someone withough confidence will NOT be followed by those under them. And if a confident person can back up their confidence with their actions, they can succeed - and Raef showed that, as every person on his team said they thought he was a good leader on the task.

Anyone see the latest episode? Turn a pub into a themed restaurant.
Fucking shop bought frozen pizzas from a supermarket and stodgy chicken curry. They should've all been given the sack.

Utter retards.

What did you think about the 'selling ice cream' programme today? I think he was right to fire Lindi because she may have alot to learn but also, Jennifer should have been given a warning. Everyone just bullies Lucinda. Not fair! She may be blonde but she aint stooooopid! I hate stereotypes. Grrr...

Lucinda is a lazy c*nt. End of story. She "manages". Yeah right. She manages to sit around all the time whinging that she's being bullied and overlooked. She was a crap project manager. She never took control and sat in the board room nodding her head when Sir Al was hauling off on the other 2.

That guy Lee gets on my fucking nerves. With his mouth full of cotton wool. Loud brash gimp.
