Sorry, possibly a bit early for this but I've JUST heard Dara O'Briain say on 5Live:

Da de da da...daaaaaaaaaaaas...

MARGARET's BACK!!

Gotta be a cracker this evening.

I think Stella might take the job. Had a rough start life. She deserves it.

Sounds good tonight with Stuart being discovered as a fraud and Sugar calling him a rude word of which we shall not speak of on STW.

I am looking forward to Baggs the Brand being taken to the cleaners. Margaret is going to skin him alive

I will really LOL if as I suspect Ball Baggs has been telling porkies or at lease embellishing to quite some extent his own history...

Did you not see the final five program? Mother abandoned her as a child. Rather it was her than Heir Baggs, loud mouthed scrubber or that other toff

Not sure what he says; but of the final 5 only 1 has been to university. The others left school at first opportunity. Saved themselves a few quid in tuition fees.

Apparently Lord Sugar looses his rag in this episode! He's not happy he lost it, but he did loose it and kept it in.

To me this says University is a load of crap because you can go there and still come out thick as poo.

Or maybe I should say, University will not make a thick person intelligent.

The interviewers annoy the hell out of me *

Thoroughly dislikeable bunch of ....
The whole [i]contrived[/i] TV ethos of how to be a succesful hard arse businessman winds me up.

At least this series Sugar has had the wit to comment on how the quality of relationships etc is more important to success thatn bullshit and bluster.

* - I know, it's telly....

As long as we all realise this and don't think it's about real business, then we'll all be happy.

Excellent, that's my last lesson of the term with Year 11 Business Studies sorted for tomorrow.
I do so hope Baggs' ponies come out to play!

Based on what I've seen, I'd employ Stella.
But based on her wanting to appear in the apprentice, I wouldn't employ Stella...
And it's not in anyway a documentary about how to behave in business

As I've said previously, it seems to be all about blame culture.
They're just watching each other to see who's "fault" it is all the time.

Jeebus, I'm nearly feeling sorry for them. If anyone interviewed me like Claude, I'd be thrown out of the building for punching him. 😀

was it just me or did Karen Brady look HOT on the follow up show? (The Apprentice: You're Fired). looks like she had lost tonnes of weight, got a tan and teeth and hair done?

If we're allowed to comment on the aesthetic qualities, or indeed sexual allure, of any celebrity or non celebrity, of either gender, I would venture the opinion that she looked pleasant. But not hot.

In 20 years time, I'll bet the girl with the cleaning business is the richest.

Sugar could see that but knew she wouldn't fit in his mob.

Someone on here must know someone who works for Bluewave.
What must it be like having Baggs as a boss? The mind boggles!

To be fair to Baggs, he was pretty good when being interviewed by Dara O'Brien later, held his own and he got off surprisingly lightly considering the amount of ammo they had to throw at him. Suppose he was quite lucky that he shared the show with 2 other candidates so only got 10 mins compared to the usual 30 mins.

Couldn't believe he started asking the Viglen boss who he was (in a 'who the hell are you to be asking me these questions' tone) halfway through the 'you don't have a licence' grilling.

"You're not a brand"

"I think I might be"

I thought that the questions to Viglen boss was about misdirection.
He was panicking, trying to avoid answering the question and hoping to flatter the interviewer.... unsuccessful on all accounts.

I agree TSY.

I do find these peoples self belief frightening though - it's like having a strong religious faith I think - that unswerving loyalty to a cause that brooks no argument, dissent or questioning.

I don't think I could be that blind to my own faults (scant few though they are!).

wwaswas - I've come to terms with my faults... I get athletes foot, but then I'm supremely athletic.

Turn that fault into a weakness, see.

I really hope Stella gets the job. By far the most competent, Chirs is so boring he makes me want to peel my own skin off.

I just really hope that Stella at some point uses her corporate experience to her advantage, uses it as a selling point... ie

'It provides me with the toolkit / methodology to deal with new complicated and difficult situations....'

It's like a version of Jeremy Kyle for middle class idiots.

Great telly though. It would be better if 'Lord Sugar' wore a Darth Vader mask when he sacked people. And maybe choke them with the Force.
