Karin Bradys accounts of what happened seemed quite fresh so I guess they are done soon after the firing. Wouldn't most of the shows in the series be done by now , now that I think of it, if not the final.

The Scottish guy who got fired was clean shaven in the programme itself, in "you're fired" he has a practically full grown beard.

Yeah, filming ended a while ago.

I know one of the Irish girls on it (Pamela), hoping to see more of her over the next few weeks.

The wearable camera could have been good - they just needed to advertise it to the right people. They would have gotten plenty more sales if they'd said that they were going for the parent market, so that parents could play with their kids with their two hands and not worry about missing a moment.

Perfect.

The girls one was just ridiculous. If you're in a club with the lights on, you're not going to want to be warmed or be able to charge your phone. If it's sunny out, you're not going to want to be warm or have stupid LEDs on and if it's cold enough to need to be heated, you probably won't get sufficient solar power. The only situation that one would need all 3 is if they were lost at sea

I quite liked the jacket and as I understood it you didnt need all three functions on at the one time. I'd love a coat which charged my phone. The heater I could take or leave and I didnt like the lights but Im sure they could be disconnected or turned off.

Im kind of glad AMS fired Robert. When he goes "I think you should be PM", and you go, "no I think your analysis is wrong", you should get fired.

And yeah pitching the jumper as something you would take clubbing was just creepy.

Yep shot himself in the foot there. Like when the missus asks you "where do you want to go" in a particular way, there is only one right answer.

For such a highly intelligent group of people, why don't they take the bloody phone upstairs with them? IT'S CORDLESS FFS!

Ah just think it's one of those set pieces to highlight the poor subservient candidates jump to attention for the all powerful decision maker Lord Sugar.

Really can't believe how poor the candidates are this season...

Few stand out with some potential...two Irish girls Roisin,Pamela and most especially Lauren.James,Daniel,Solomon.Mark looks the standout candidate to me.

Speaking of which,how quiet and subdued was Steven on the second task?!

The standard of candidates especially female has gone down. It's quite ironic last year when an issue was made about one of the female contestants ( who went on to win i know ) being referred as as eye-candy to increase sales when that is exactly what the BBC are doing to increase viewership/controversy around the show. That's not the only tactic used by the BBC of course cause picking immensely unlikable candidates is another. Thankfully so unlikable that Robert was sacked almost immediate. Pretentious fcuk.

Robert was scary when he clenched his teeth

Well if The Apprentice is now the subject of tabloid newspapers it just goes to show what class of people it's now aimed at. Should be shifted over to ITV 1 after corrie.

Tabloids always ran Apprentice stories

You do realise you are on a board discussing The Apprentice here? Not fine art?

Exactly this isn't a thread for luxury... unless you're talking about a luxury yacht in the south of France or designer fashion designs starting at £5,000 of course.

I really dont think the BBC chose females based on their looks. Karen was the best looking woman in the room the other night.

I do agree the candidates seem to have gone down. There really doesnt seem to be anyone feisty, or interesting or fun, aside from that idiot whose selling tactic is short skirts and cutting up lemons.

A use for the boys shirt perhaps.

Probably commenting at the worst time... just wanted to say most of them annoy the **** out of me especially that young black guy...

Good luck to the 2 irish girls though! WOOOP!!!

I don't know you could be possibly talking about. If my comment offended you in some way it doesn't bother me in the slightest that it did.

Not offended at all. Was just wondering if you understand irony.

No it's far too tenuous a point you made so I'll stick with my gut feeling which is that you were irked in some way

I don't think a £250,000 yacht would be classed as "super luxury" in Cannes.

Thought that aswell, another 100 grand on top of that would rent the Maltese Falcon for a week.

Episode Three - BBC 1 @ 9pm tonight.


Task 3 - Home Fragrance

For the candidates it's an early morning visit to the Royal Exchange, home to some of the biggest names in luxury goods. Lord Sugar tells the teams that he wants them to tap into one of the hottest trends in retail by creating their own range of home fragrance products.

With two days to turn melted wax into hard cash, the newly mixed teams head off - half to create fragrances, the rest to get the measure of the market. One team opts for an upmarket beach theme, while the others come up with a more exotic concoction.

Both teams set off to sniff out sales, flogging their fragrant wares to the public

Got so used to Wed night being cake night for the Great British Bake Off, I just found myself wondering what I was going to have tonight! Looking forward to the show.

Good Evening Folks

I'm looking forward to tonight's task, in the past teams have gotten into trouble with this one by choosing very expensive ingredients and making massive losses as a result.

Looking at some of those guys, I reckon they spend more time in front of the mirror than the women.
