The Apprentice...

[ToraToraTora]

I cannot believe these are the best 16 candidates that applied, one of them actually said, "I have no idea of grammes and litres and all that stuff". I can only assume they are getting on there for effect. I mean gawd help us if these are the future captains of industry. The girls seem to want to fight each other and the boys seem to be trying to see who can be the most incompetant. So glad Jazz went though couldn't stand much more of her! Though in ep2 I'd have fired Francesca. Can't do simple arithmetic is comparable to being illiterate.You're views?

The best bit was when they turned up at the pub to sell them beer without actually taking a sample, and offered them an empty bottle to sniff instead.
Priceless.

[ToraToraTora]

yes I spotted it.....Your views....!

Complete *** - I wouldn't employ a single one of them, the arrogance shown unbelievable.

[DTCwordfan]

ass-holes was my word

The Poke do a review of each episode (used to be better when the commentator wasn't on screen)

I haven't seen the second episode yet, only watched episode 1 last night and I have to agree. What a bunch of plonkers!
I cannot believe these are the UK's finest entrepreneurs. I reckon they went in for the wrong show and thought they were auditioning for Big Brother.

I think these reality shows are becoming more and more 'unreal'. They pick people for their personalities (or lack thereof) rather than abilities and are pitching to the lowest denominator. Even masterchef contestants this year were not as good technically as previous years, but they all have to have a good 'back story' now.

I wouldn't employ ANY of them, also if I still worked I could never work with them having huge egos like that - they would not fit in at all well, they would ruin a company within days, all out for themselves instead of the business and as DT has just said their arrogance is just unbelievable. Poor Alan Sugar - wonder if he vets them first?

[douglas9401]

From the little I've seen it involves people with dodgy complexions trying to blame each other for being crap at everything they do.
Lord Sugar needs to pay more attention in the coaching sessions on delivery of scripted drivel that he surely attends.
Nick Hewer seems even more surplus to requirements than he does on countdown.
And there's some woman too.
Apart from that and the sheer pointlessness of it all, it's okay.

// Nick Hewer seems even more surplus to requirements than he does on countdown. //

He does provide some valuable insights though, such as 'They've decided to price their beer at double anyone elses. I think it's a risky strategy'.

That fellow Alex could audition for Phantom of the Opera.

[Prudie]

LOl I noticed that too, I can never understand why people - of that supposed business level - think it's OK to profess thicknes at doing simple maths. Have you noticed how stunning a lot of the women are, coincidence I think not.

[MadMen]

Lol. What is going on with those eyebrows?!
