The Apprentice

Heard that due to the economic climate - the usual jolly to Morocco is going to be changed to Margate instead

I love the apprentice. Some of the more cringeworhy moments ( at least for me ) was the episode from last years when they did the 'laundry' task last year and the girls team asked outright for a tip when delivering laundry that didn't even belong to the person they were delivering to. From the series before when they had to go to France and attempted to sell several Kilos of English Cheddar to the French. Ok I have holidayed many times in France on a self catering basis so have seen personally the range of cheeses available in France. What made the arrogant young people think they could sell anything ( or fob off very poor service ) and consider themselves good at business?

Laughable.

Indeed I watch with my family which includes two teenagers. It actually gives me the opportunity to give advise to my kids on ' How not to patronise and think your great when your not'.

That said I think there is quite a lot to learn from the programme. It's good TV, let's hope this series gives us lots to talk about.

I think it probably will.

I have watched the first 5 mins of Apprentice and have decided the best bit of the show is the girls running round in their underwear after Sir Alan calls them at 5.45am and the camera follows them around while they get dressed.

I'm ashamed to say the guy from Northern Ireland (Ben) is a complete prick. Braces and pinstripes are always a give away, but he's a twat anyway.

He just backed that up with his fitness assessment of his rivals...

That Deborah is something else

What about the man love montage between Philip and Madge - hilarious.

[tommy]

Very funny - think I'm starting to enjoy the post show better these days

[jaybee82]

The one I cant stand is James...rambles on for what seems like an age not even getting close to answering the question someone's asked him. The only reason he's still there is he's controversial! Get rid!

[bigbadwolf]

Does anyone else get the impression that when Sralan takes his shoes and socks off at the end of the day it's revealed that instead of feet he has a pair of troters/hooves instead?

[bigbadwolf]

I also think it would be very nice if for next years commic relief Mr sugar were to share the video production that only he in the entire world has had the chance to see. The very private episode of Only fools and horses where Alan plays the part of Del boy and Dennis plays Rodney who have to put up with living with Aunty Margaret who coincidentaly smokes a pipe.

[Keef]

That Ben is a proper little cnut isn't he!

[Mick Mac]

Did not see it tonight Keef - but yes - he's a twat make no mistake. Obviously did not do himself any favours tonight either.

It seems the Liverpool fans were having a quiet night in tonight? Who was fired?

[Keef]

I have the excuse of a very pregnant wife for staying in ;-) Can't remember her name, but nice ginger brummie lass got fired. Ben should have been!

[brum]

Yes, a travesty indeed Keef... Paula had a lot of potential and I understood her every word.

[tommy]

Great boardroom tactics by Philip today...

[Mick Mac]

I missed it again Tommy (having trouble typing now, my big night out for this week was tonight...) but I will catch up soon - Philip seems a cool guy..don't tell me who was "outed".

[Mick Mac]

Ben is back in the boardroom - back in the firing line...could this be his last night?

[Keef]

So who got fired? Missed it, and not repeated today because of snooker.

[sophiesofa]

The one who's a science teacher with the big eyes, can't remember his name. I just watched it on i-player at work on the sly.

[redinjun]

looks like sophiesofa will be the next to get fired if that's the case

[sophiesofa]

i'm not good with names juninred and no-one had answered so i thought any information is better than no information. I admit it probably wasn't much help. Do you know his name then?

[hibbs]

It was Noorul Choudhury who got fired last night

[Keef]

He did nothing, no surprise .

[tommy]

He got a bit of a rough ride on the "You're Fired" show - but deservedly so after he started banging on how he was "an excellent teacher" and "loved his kids"...not enough to turn down a six figure salary if he won I bet

xxxxxxx

Well he might have done loads of things, but we only see what the programme makers choose to show us :)

But yes, on the evidence we saw, he was ******* useless and I can't understand how he got on the Apprentice at all .....
