Well, the wrong man went home last night for sure! Sugar needs to get shot of that Belgian moustachiod creepy creepy creep guy. The incompetent scouser was, at least, inoffensive. I'm with you, you are right in principle, just say no to moustaches and orange ties. But did you see the other guy do anything productive? I'm afraid I would have fired him too. But I would have happily gone for a pint with him whereas you'd have to pay me to spend time with Hercule Disney or whatever his name is, (I can't be bothered to check, people should have easier names). And yes, that would make me a cheap ho. Tom Perlioux (good attempt anyway). Love him! You know he won't win but Sralan should hire him to replace Nick when Nick goes. He gives the absolute best answer to any question you could think of and he's always right. Yeah. No airs. Striaghtforward. Looking forward to her being PM and winning hands down. Bad, naughty, gloved, Edna! I no likey either. I no likey anyone who has qualifications in business psychology and can turn around and say 'I've assessed all the skills in the group and the person who is best is....... me.' By the way, I've read, cogitated and assessed all the posts on Stub Crouch in the past four weeks and Member of the Month is me. Sue? Susi? Am I just being racist and thinking her name is like sushi? I like her. I don't know why. I really dislike Melody. I dislike her for all the right reasons and then some wrongs one (ie, she seems pretty good at what she does). I no likey that woman who runs the Rare Tea Company. £1000 for a cuppa?! I love Norn Iron Sniper Jim! He's my favourite. I wouldn't want him anywhere near me or my family, let's be clear about that, but his character rivals Dirty Den or Jaws or Nasty Nick, so the script will always be good. I think he should be planted in all reality/gameshows from now on. |

OMG Trubs, yes, Norniron Jim.
Did you see him negotiating for the steak last night? "I'm going to come to see you and you're going to sell me it and I'm going to shake your hand" and everyone - male, female - just does exactly what he tells them.
Imagine him trying to get you into bed . . you'd be powerless to resist.
He's a dangerous man.

Is he handsome? I might be persuaded to watch if he's handsome.

Is he handsome? I might be persuaded to watch if he's handsome. He's steelily handsome. (Is steelily a word?) And you'll watch if he tells you to, and he'll shake your hand on that. |

Oh no, not my type at all. I don't like him much either - not that I'd ever let a character defect blight physical lust. Or at least I didn't, remembering back to the years when I had it.
Indeed, the Apprentice this year is sadly short of fit men. Not worth watching at all.

Hold on. What happened? I logged in to say that he wasn't particularly handsome.

Interesting that it occurred to none of the Scouser's team to consult a dictionary (for cloche). Dimbulbs all. Kloshay! Sralan should've sacked the Belgian git as well, of course, except that the programme's policy has always seemed to include keeping obvious buffoons and/or twats in until the last minute. My shortlist: Ellie, Zoe, NornIron. Unless the Inventor has a secret mind-control device up his sleeve. He could well be the dark horse. |

I don't even know which ones Ellie and Zoe are yet. But this thread has several weeks left in it . . . .

The trouble with the early parts of the series is that someone who hasn't really been on your radar yet gets made PM, gets sacked.
Alas poor Felicity - I didn't know her well.
Still, at least on Daria's show afterwards she admitted that she'd messed up. That was nice.
But what I was loving were the other 2 women she took in the boardroom, Ellie and ??. They were cut from the same cloth. Blunt, blunt women. More fun to come from them.
Still hating the Belgian Waffler.
Started hating Susie and her skincare business.
Zoey seems very, very young.

Felicity seems a decent type. In other words, a fish out of water on The Apprentice. She seems to have a proper job as well. Concidence? Suzie's a drip who seems to live in a fantasy world. ("Natural Skincare Entrepreneur".) Melody really gets up my nose. ("Global Youth Consultant".) My heart says Zoe. My head says NornIron or Tom. Unless Ellie hammers them into the bloodstained dust, which she's quite capable of doing. This whole task was mindless posturing about worthless products, introduced by a pointless visit to the British Museum. Sralan needs some better advisors. No, I'm not volunteering. Nick was out of control yesterday. Making faces even more than usual, and giving advice to the team he was with. Not that they paid any attention. Karren Brady used to be managing director of Birmingham City Football Club and is now vice-chairman of West Ham United. Both teams were relegated this year. I'm hoping she takes charge of Sunderland (and/or Rangers) next season. |

I'm not sure about that Zoe yet. She seems to lack gravitas somehow.
I think you're overlooking Natascha. After seeing her blunt teaming up with blunt old Ellei last night in the boardroom . . well, we need to see a bit more of her to decide.
Tom was in top form last night - the only reasonable man on the task.
I agree with you about Melody. She's dreadful.

The two "lucky escapees" totally ignored poor Felicity when they walked out of the boardroom. Very bad form in my book.
They excused themselves to their somewhat shocked housemates by arguing that Felicity did them down - well of course she did; it is part of the game. What she said was no worse than many before her, all of whom when sacked get a friendly word or handshake, if not a hug and a peck on the cheek, from those they have belittled.

Housey, that Ellie and Natascha are two scarey wimmin. You're right of course. Common courtesy would have dictated at least a handshake (I'm not keen on all this hugging and cheek-pecking that seems to have come into vogue recently.) |

At 9 p.m. last night, I sent Mr. E. upstairs to watch The Apprentice on our bedroom t.v., while I stretched out on the sofa to watch "24 hours in A & E". Lovely stuff!
I'm addicted to reality hospital programmes. I should have been a doctor, really.
