Anybody watching?
I'm choking with laughter here. This has to be one of the funniest episodes I've seen.
They are truly inept....:-)

Very easy to critisize sitting in front of your TV and not being there.
For example one group had to go out and buy furniture while the other group stayed at the room and decorated it.
And by "splitting" the teams it meant that one team did not have a clear idea what the other team where doing (in terms of colour, style and so on).
Also we had no idea how long the teams were allowed in the shop to buy the furniture. Maybe they were rushed and given a short time limit - 15 minutes for example.
How many of you would like to go out and buy furniture while your partners was at home decorating the room, but you had no idea what colour etc they were using?
Also a lot of these tasks are deliberately set so they make the teams look bad and make for better TV.
And don't you think it is also edited to make the teams look bad and make for "better" television?
Poster above says they are "inept", but while not doing the Apprentice they are all running their own business, whereas the poster is sitting at home updating answerbank !
I have found this with social media, all of a sudden everyone is an "expert". As soon as something appears on the news you get comments like "why did the police not do this" or "why did the government not do that" when most of these people have never run anything in their life.

I do try and think about what it is actually like to work on these tasks.
As the programme's remit is to find strengths and weaknesses, I think a task like this does the job well, I would hate to have to try and do something like this.
Probably that's why I am a viewer, and would never wish to be a participant, even if I were young and ambitious enough.
