There must be some people who watched it!!! I remember last year a good few of us did.

Well this year I got Alex in the work sweep stake. And then he did what I prayed he would not - step up to be team leader!!!! I was nervous all through the show that I was going! Luckily there was a big idiot in the shape of Nicholas to save me!!!! He was awful! And so was Raef - my words are my tools, lol lol!!

Any other comments?!

Are these guys really the best entrepreneurs Britain has left??? I mean I thought last year was scraping the barrel :yikes:

I'm still smarting that Katie didn't win last year :angry:

Glad you started a thread WA because I hadn't got round to it. :ok:

Must say I was a bit dissappointed with it last night. Kind of felt they were all a bit fake and that I'd sene it all before. No oen really stood out as being any good, and no one in particular seemed spectatularly watchable for all the wrong reasons - except perhass Raif and the guy who left - Nicholas? Then again they did big him up as a tw*t in the programme because they knew he was goin and they onyl had 45 mins to show us 12 contestants in action so we missed quite a few. He did kind fo blow it in the board room though, although I didn't care for hsi team leader, but he was righ tto tell him off in the street cos he f*cke dup pricing.

Overall i think they were all quite stupid to think you can get a lobster for a fiver! :rolleyes: The task was easy and they shoudl have all walked it. I seriously coudl have made more than that lot myself with my partner as fish expert and my sister selling the stuff :lol: If you can't make cash on loveyl fih liek that you should pack in!

They all deserve a slap round the face with a wet kipper. :ok:

I'll eb back t comment on a few of them once I have looke dup the names cos I cannto remember.

I liked the leader as he is mine in the sweep!!! Plus he is quite :wub: In fact there are a few handsome fellas this year! Bonus!
It is always hard to see much of them when there are so many in still. Nick was a complete tosser though complete with the shades B)
Did you like the girl with the berret?!

OMG those shades! W*nker :lol: I did like the picture he did after he was fired though, He is an artist so he said.

I didn't take much notice fo thr girl in the berret at the time, but they were talking about her on TV and saying she would eb quite quirky so look forward to more of her. :ok:

A sweepstake is a really good idea, good luck :ok: I didn't hate the guy you have, he just seemed a bit bland to me :shrug: Still he had a go and it's risky beign project leader in week one. I did notice that soem fo the boys were quite laddish and coudl see where the two posher ones were coming from, although they didi make themseves look silly. In fact one of them I think said something about them beign liek boy band members :lol: I bet you love them :D

I was annoyed by the Irish woman who claimed she was best salesperson in Europefr soem reason, and the Asian girl with the big earrings, she fancied herself and kept faking beign all go getting. I can't remember what she said at the start now but ti really annoyed me.

We did the sweep last year too and I had Ifti - the guy who missed his family and couldnt be arsed! Went quite early. My supervisor went first last year and once again this year! We were all chuckling today roflmao
Wonder if Raef is the new Tre?! And who will be the new Katie Hopkins?

Haha i agree with you about Alex :wub: mmmm yes please!! and that tall rugged looking guy wasnt half bad either :)

nah she irritated me, as did the "best saleswoman in all of europe" or whatever she claimed to be. actually, most of the women annoyed me to be perfectly honest...

I know, I never really take to the women in anything, wonder why that is, hehe!

I doubt we'll have characters as unique as those two. For all their failings, they were watchable. And whatever they say about Katy she gave us a great twist last year when she walked out. She did act a b*tch but I think she put it on and I liked her rin the end. I reckon she only did it to get famous and never wanted the job roflmao I certainyl wouldn't want it either. He can stick his 6 figure salary :D

I wonder WA :rolleyes:
:D

I didnt; find a bloke I fancied really. I will go ont he website nwo though adn have a look.

Hahaha i know what you mean. they dont really seem like my kind of people. i mean, you can hardly see me spouting that business management mumbo jumbo. me and my mam spent half the show just taking the mick out of that!

Here's the website

http://www.bbc.co.uk/apprentice/candidate/...contestant.html

I bet WA likes Ian, Lee and Alex. They do look boy bandy :D On those picks Alex looks the best, but I didnt; fancy him on the show at all. Based on the pics I don't see any eye candy I'm afraid.

Sara is the woman who annoyed me and will continue to do so.

"I’m a true example of pure class and elegance. I don’t try to be glamorous – I'm just naturally like that." T*sser :kpow:

Raif makes my skin crawl. 'The spoken word is my tool' - oh f*ck off! He looks really creepy as well (and not like Roger Federer as people say!)

Couldn't stand Nicholas - what an absolute ponce! If I was Sir Alan, I would have fired them all when they were in the boardroom, arguing like schoolboys. Where do they get these people from??? :unsure:

Apprentice hilarious as usual.

Raef does remind me of Federer,but the best looky likey is Alex who reminds me of Ethan Hawke and Cary Elwes(He of The Princess Bride fame) :D

I wonder nevets because a lot of them are shite. They are just average people with big egos who over estimate themselves, a lot are fake. What surprises me is that they lack basic skills with people and above all COMMON SENSE. :rolleyes: With the fish task the first thing you'd do is split your team, and get off to a fishmonger to see some fish and work out prices. Or you could of course just phone one up! :rolleyes:

I'm not sure about Raif yet, he is acting like an assh*le but he might prove to be the entertainment. He kinda thinks he's royalty. I'm not sure if I have the right perosn in mind but i thought of Imran Khan? :shrug:

I actually Raefs behaviour was ok - he did stick his neck out to defend a few people, although he did come out with some very off key comments that suggest there lurks a bit of an idiot. And yes, slightly Fed-eque, but with a ludicrous quiff.

I couldn't stand the really laddy guys - swaggering around way too much, and looking like total chavs.

Nicholas was an utter loser...and those sunglasses were seriously ill-advised. I am glad he went, because he was just so pompous and egotistical. Does he think he's the only person in the country to have a 1st?

So far they have all come across as utter sh*t - and what are their jobs? They don't make any sense! "Business Sales Senior Retail Advisor Liaison Manager " blah blah blah....

The women have yet to really irritate - there were a few early candidates for a smack...but I can't remember their names.

The winner doesn't get to be S'rallens right hand man - and from that bunch, that doesn't surprise me.

I'm surpised dl hasn't been on saying they are as much use as wet fish :lol:

I agree Sara that the laddish blokes were just as irritating as the posh ones. You get tw*ts liek that everywhere round here in not so great jobs with infalted titles. Estate agency work seems to attract them, and most of them can't orgainse a diary and keep an appointment let alone manage a project IME. :rolleyes:

I don't think really good people will go on this show, or won't get picked cos they won't brag enough. And it's so b*tchy and exhausting for most people. Partner's colleague and busniess partner would be GREAT on this, he's already helped invent and market a product BUT he says he couldn't stick idiots, feels too old and he suffers ME so has to work around that. Shame co she'd eat that lot for breakfast :lol:

I know what you mean! When you try and deduce it, they basically mean something like 'phone salesman' or 'secretary.'

The funniest bit of information about The Apprentice website was Michael. When they listed his hobbies, he included 'meeting girls!' What are you, 13? It just sounds so child-like! Get a life!

:lol: Oh how sad! Well I don't wish to meet him I assure you. :D

These long winded job titles are all the rage these days. There's a really long one for a telegraph pole repairer at BT, I must ask my partner cos it is really funny. I've never had a long job title like that, I think Project Development Worker is the longest I've had and that isn't much.

SB am I really that predictable?!!! :P You are totally right, those are the 3 I have earmarked!!! Alex is my fave though as he is my contender.

Wasn't Michael the one who accused Alex of not being his friend?! roflmao

Sorry but Raef is a comple wank*r, especially with all that prince and pauper stuff. Hate him already! I guess he does look a bit like Fed in a really wierd way! I find him really arrogant and patronising.

Yes. And his eyes watered over when he said that. Bless his cotton socks :rolleyes:

See, I am a great judge of character :D

Oh what a lot this year, i was so pleased that they're all morons roflmao roflmao

Great tv :lol:

That woman saying she's the best in Europe and then couldnt identify fish :doh:

I love how they're so kiss-ass with Sir Alan. 'Yes sir Alan' :lol:

Who are these people? Where did they find them? That girl's the best who looks like a low-budget Beyonce roflmao

I was wondering when you'd apear :lol:

If I were Sir Alan and had to hire anyone from the show last week, i'd have gone for the half alive lobster or the Dover sole. :lol:

Did you see that prat who was hackign that fish head down the middle? :yikes: That woman's face who was buying it was priceless :lol:

That lobster did seem quite precaucious roflmao

I know hacking away and then wraping it up like nothing had happened :lol:

And that whole northern vs southern thing in the boardroom? Give me a break! roflmao

I know! :lol:

I reckon half of that dead fish head with half it's dead brain would be more use than that lot :lol:

That lobster did indeed look keen. I can't eat them though, I don't like how some get boiled alive. And I think lobster is overrated. But get this story -

George's mum had a lobster and froze it. She got it out of the freezer one day and put it on the side to defrost. She came back into the kitchen a few hours later and it had vanished. As she walke dinto the hallway the lobster ran at her waving it's claws :lol: She doesn't liek lobster now.

OMG, killer lobster :o :yikes: roflmao

that would so shit me up roflmao

Yeah attack of the cryogenically forzen lobster:lol:

Apparently lobster can adapt to that kind fo thing and go into suspended animation and come back!

omg, i cant stand things like that :peek:

hope it doesnt happen with chicken roflmao

Yeah especially when they are plucked and headless! :lol:

Yeha lobsters can survive out of water for ages. They can be still alive when frozen. In restuarnts they used to stick them into boiling water alive! Yuck. Now they cut their throats first apparently to be more humane. :rolleyes: If you cook one form forzen, and same with crabs, they can wake up during the process. There are various methinds but I avoid it completely. Pissed me off that every time I wanted seafood on holiday it had to have a bloody lobster involved, for which they charge £10 extra anyway, so I passed and had mussels and scallops.

That would have scared the life out of me. It's bad enough when you have a horrible spider scuttling towards you, let alone a lobster!

Yeah, I'm nto scared of spiders nevets but for the first time in my life I encountered a hunting spider in my bathroom. Dysdera, the Woodlice Eating Spider. It was hairless,shiny, had jaws and a white body! I shot out of th ebathroom screaming. :yikes: :lol:

I contacted thsi arachnopolgy society on th enet, they told me what it was and it is one fo the fe ehunting spiders in Britain. It rarely comes indoors and does bite, but apparently onyl if provoked. It is not sene oftne as nocturnal and doesn't breed in large numbers apparently, but I have lots of wood in the garden so lots of woodlice. It was fascinating but scary!

I'm never going to into my bathroom again after hearing that story :P I would have just passed out!

I have been known to sleep in another bedroom if I have seen a spider in my room and it's scuttled off somewhere, out of my sight. I just have a fear of waking up in the night with the spider on my face or something :unsure:

I never had that fear, but since I saw this bugger I have :lol: The reason it was in the bathroom is cos it is downstairs and close to the garden so I get the odd woodlice coming in up the plughole or through the plumbing or brick or something. I had noticed I don't get so many lately though so the spider must have been feasting well.

Anyway this arachnopologist guy says he actively looks for these spiders to take into his lectures! :yikes:

I'm now so glad to be living in the inner city!

On the subject of lobsters/crabs etc, I have never liked them either after standing on a crab in the sea when I was six!

oooh dear :lol:

I don't live in the country btw, I am 10 misn walk from an Outer London town. It's just that my estate was built in the 20s and they have huge gardens, a park etc (which is why I like it) so there' so much wildlife potential. Mind you I've had loads of these harmless woodlice for 10 yrs and this is the only time I saw that spider.

Crabs are lethal, people seem to forget those pincers. I don't eat them much either - it's very rich.

Sir. Alan made a really dumb decision firing Shazia. That project manager bitch should have gone. What a horrible lady she is. She was so patronising and just seemed intent on being like a strict headmistress.

Miss. best saleswoman in Europe came up with a blinder today in the laundry task: 'We will do all your laundry for £4.99 a piece.' roflmao Didn't it occur that if you go to the laundry, they give back a whole bag full of washing for about £7? No?

And what was that guy whittering on about at the beginning? Maybe I got the wrong end of the stick as I wasn't fully paying attention but didn't he say something along the lines of, I have been in the army for most of the 1990s, I've been to Bosnia so I think I'll be good in the laundry, doing the ironing. Huh?!

i really don't know what he saw in Jenny. The Failure was solely her mistake Not Shazia, she was instructed by the pm to go!

Is Sugar going for ratings knowing that there are 2 women who hate eachother?

He's only increasing the value of his show After all!
