Love it, it's like listening to one of our meetings at work. ๐
Nobody ever called that lad the "master puppeteer" how do they manage to round up so many bell's.
I already want to kill recruitment guy.

Every year I swear they get worse...
Reflection of perfection....business superstar by day, wrestler by night. ****wittery on an unprecedented level!
Those drawings were really good.
Kill them all, it sounds like my office.
I know it's hyped by clever editing but it's the reason I'd couldn't work in private sector, any meeting I go that start with this crap I switch off. Last year was doing some training with a guy who repeatedly came out with lines like that, in the end I snapped and told him some truths. He went very quiet, I almost felt guilty until the others said "Thank God you said something."

You mean the "business superstar".
Cringeworthy but all the better for it. They're all awful.

I saw in the advert someone said "Business is actually very simple, it's just made complicated by idiots", but didn't appear to be talking about the other contestants.
There's a daddy over there with a baby that I want to attack....
Where do they find these people?!
My goodness - those girls are frightening....and are they really that stupid?
Also...what's with the new music???
Jane McEvoy = Catherine Tate
Billiana nice legs shame about the gob, does she know about listening skills
See ya
I HATE this programme, but I want to WATCH it, so that I can TELL everyone how much I HATE it.
GRRRAAAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!!
no tv licence - Iplayer time
EDIT: damn they won't put it on until the repeat has been shown on bbc 3 ๐
Shakes head and misses that sweetie Tom (last year's winner). Such a pleasing personality and he proves that spouting utter tosh gets you nowhere. ๐
+1 mikertroid - dead ringer for the character she played who dated / married death row prisoners. Two of the blokes (Ricky and Adam) have been on tv before, both as contestants on Total Wipeout. It's not that I have a good memory for television trivia, but I do have a good memory for cockmonkeys, and these two, as I'm sure you'll see as the series progresses, take cockmonkery to a whole other level.
Have they got a token ex-Army officer on this year?
Hey mitch... remember me?
There's not much I watch on TV but The Apprentice is unmissable
yeti, you saucy old tupper, how could I forget? Not been on here much lately, due to my daughter getting married and a recent family bereavement.
Some of the stuff that spout is classic - I still remember 'Don't tell me you can't reach for the stars when there are footprints on the moon'
How these people aren't labelled as morons and ignored by their peers at work is beyond me.
Also they are nearly all described as 'entrepreneurs'
like 'refrigeration entrepreneur' does that mean he sells fridges in comet?
I'm taking it that I'm a cockmonkey and this pleases me. Almost makes up for the lack of invite to the wedding... why did you keep her a secret from me?

I would imagine it's even more scripted and less 'real' than even [i]I[/i] thought. Yeti - no cockmonkery from you I'm afraid, and I didnt invite you for fear that my daughter would run off with you and spend the rest of her life picking fleas out of your pelt.

Does this make 'The Apprentice' the new 'Top Gear'?
you'll never beat "BAGS THE BRAND!" that was cringe TV at its best...
I already want to kill recruitment guy.
I think that's a natural response when people tell you they work in recruitment.
Watching the girls stabbing each other to avoid the chop is pure class. Bless 'em.
Usual stereotypes and balances cross-section of idiots. But so unlike AS to let the eye candy leave so early. He normally salivates over them for at least a few episodes. What a prune talking herself out of safety!! There's always one irrelevant blond who somehow gets away with things?? How annoying will the super (sic) salesman become?

One of the best quotes I've ever heard was from the 2009 one with Ben Clark who said whilst describing a fellow candidate "he's useless, he couldn't pour shit out of a boot if the instructions where on the heel"
makes me laugh every time I hear it
I always like the follow on show on BBC2. They continue to stick the knife in and twist it! Will admit I hope that this is the last series, it is starting to look well past its sell-by date.
I know it's hyped by clever editing but it's the reason I'd couldn't work in private sector
See, I've only every witnessed their level of *wittery when I worked in the public sector at the home office (which is the reason I can't watch the office, it was far too close to the truth), which goes to show that it's not the sector, it's the manager.
like 'refrigeration entrepreneur' does that mean he sells fridges in comet?
Surely a 'refrigeration entrepreneur' is a Fridge Magnate?
Never watched it and from reading this never will
Just had my 12 month discipline warning expire after exploding at a meeting where all this bullshit was being spoken
Probably not the best thing then for me to watch, how did we ever get to this sorry state of affairs
Some of them can really talk professional corporate rubbish ...
Yes, get those management talks very often too and also corporate PC spin all the time.
I think there is a culture clash there between Bliyana etc.
I accidentally saw the last two minutes when those spared return to the house, genuinely thought it was Big Brother for a couple of seconds.

the master puppeteer is now a killer whale
