Pretty happy with my prediction of Roisin.
Blondie PM would've been hosed if the girls had lost. Chopped lemons, £200 buckets etc...

You say this like it wasnt obvious from the start.

I'm just glad that my pick, Daniel, will not get fired and win the Apprentice

With as many candidates are, at least some weeks it won't be a fake out. Personally, with 20 candidates and ten weeks til Christmas I'm hoping for at least one triple firing.

You were a bit quiet on this task, are you allowed to talk about it after it airs or do you have to wait till the season finishes

It'll happen......they've got to up the game somehow and double firing's have been pretty regular throughout the past few seasons.

Ok, caught up.

1. I'm not sure any of the candidates are actually human beings.
2. I feel so sorry for the people who actually have to deal with them in real life.

So no different to normal then. I still can't believe after 10 years they still make the same mistakes in a selling task. London Zoo, aggghhh, whyyyyyy? "It's not a fire sale" <> Sell for below cost price.


(Double firings were common on the US Apprentice, it just took a while for it to cross the atlantic)

It's great hate-watch TV isn't it? My other half can't stand it, he sits there on the computer passing comment about how terrible it is, not realising that is precisely WHY I watch it. I've got a workshop tonight and I hope I get back in time to join you guys at the coal-face again!

Did anyone get a Bingo last night?

It just never ceases to amaze me how quick the cringingly self-aggrandising public school alumni regress to behaving like actual children in the face of any conflict.

Please be excited.



To be honest if Apprentice started today, and was a brand new thing, I'd loving despise it. With the amount of awful reality competitions out there these days I wouldn't go near a new one to save my life.

The fact that it snuck in before reality TV became synonymous with Honey Boo Boo and Simon loving Cowell allows it to retain some maddening hold over me. It know it's the same poo poo as every other show out there, but gently caress.
