The new series of The Apperntice starts tonight on BBC1 @ 9pm. Who will be watching it? I certainly will be.

Its by far one of the best shows on TV. IMHO.

Never seen it before, but might give it a go

garinda · 26-03-2008, 16:24

I'll be watching it.

I wonder if there'll be anyone local on this year, and who'll be this year's super bitch Katie?

garinda · 26-03-2008, 16:32

Woops...............wrong thread.

Lolly · 26-03-2008, 17:31

Theres a lad from Bolton. Thats the nearest to us. Hope he's not a pillock!! He's called Alex Wotherspoon.

BBC - The Apprentice - Candidates

Give it a go Emzy its a fantastic programme!!

BERNADETTE · 26-03-2008, 17:35

If I don't watch I will be taping it, got to agree it is great!!!

mickmc · 26-03-2008, 17:41

Yep me too, one of best programs on TV in last few years

Lolly · 26-03-2008, 21:16

Excellent start as always. What the hell was that lad who got fired going on about class/education divides. Thought he looked an idiot from the start.

Well although the lad from Bolton was in the last 3, he didn't make a complete prat of himself.

It's such great television.

So many egos, and hardly an ounce of common sense between them.

Raef should have gone tonight, but I fear he'll be one of those pantomime villains the producer's will keep in until nearer the end to increase the ratings, and the viewer's blood pressure.

I completely agree, does he not remind you of Syed from 2 years ago??

What I couldn't understand is both the teams were roughly an hour away from Islington. Why couldn't they have sat down with the prices and the picture book on the way there and sorted all of them out in the car?? Thats what i'd have done so that by the time i'd got there i'd only have to get all the fish out, identify them and mark the prices.

I wonder if thats why they have took torchwood off bb2 and moved it to friday?

Lolly · 27-03-2008, 08:51

Yes it is. Much to my annoyance!!!! They didn't want 2 of their biggest shows to clash.

Well they didn't really have the means to label the fish while in the car

But you're right, the prices could have been marked up and sorted in the car. It's not rocket science I don't know how he managed to get them wrong.

Nicholas was going on about how hes well educated, into art & culture etc... Yet he didn't realise that at £4.90 EACH was way way to cheap for a Lobster!

Stuff the car, I'd have been in the back of the van with the fish, marking up the prices on route. Plus I'd have kept half the team in Notting Hill, flogging the fish to the trendy resaurants there, rather than all the team wasting an hour travelling to Islington's rather grim street market.
