thefunkygibbons Posted 11 May, 2011 Share Posted 11 May, 2011 The thing that always surprises me is, do these people ever watch the prior series, as they always repeat the same mistakes Rule 1: delay being a project manager for the first few weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CB Saint Posted 11 May, 2011 Share Posted 11 May, 2011 I hate the first few weeks of the apprentice. There are so many utter F***witts on it that I only can really start to enjoy it once Lord Sugar has whittled them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you notice though, at the start of the show, Sugar said ' I will be investing £250,000 worth of cash AND VALUE' ie. Sod all cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. eg one day of consultancy from his lordship = £20k ? This is a reality show, not a job opportunity. The participants are either thick, self-delusional, or just hope to make a media career, or maybe all 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Duckhunter Posted 11 May, 2011 Share Posted 11 May, 2011 His idea of the orange juice came across well on the You're fired programme. He had the costings and margin all sorted out, had he of shared this with the others and talked Sugar through it in the Boardroom, he may have survived. In fact had they juiced enough oranges and got them on sale earlier they would have ****ed the task. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmel Posted 11 May, 2011 Share Posted 11 May, 2011 This year will see the contestants fighting it out to win a £250,000 prize fund that will be invested into their own business. The winning contestant will be able to choose what type of business they wish to set up and will have the backing and mentoring of Lord Sugar, with each taking a 50/50 stake in the company. Think you are being a tad cynical there Hatch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they all been so successful, what do they want with a mere £250k? I've always thought that too. Why would someone with their own company supposedly worth millions want to work for someone else on only a 6 figure salary, or in this case for £250k... Media whores.

There are so many utter F***witts on it that I only can really start to enjoy it once Lord Sugar has whittled them out. The early stages are the only ones worth watching, because the f***wits are the pure comedy value. When they are gone, the programme becomes much duller. Mind you, the early stages also includes some nice eye candy females too, like that one who was the PM in the first episode. A pity though to have to listen to the drivel that came out of her mouth.

SuperMikey Posted 12 May, 2011 Share Posted 12 May, 2011 Can't believe the boy's app lost, it was far better than the girl's one. Had to love Jim worming his way out of the boardroom though - top quality! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Duckhunter Posted 12 May, 2011 Share Posted 12 May, 2011 They had the best pitch the best app and even the birds thought they were going to lose. However, even I was thinking "this is too British". It was obvious that Sugar was giving them a big hint with "this is going global". In my opinion it was a lot better than the bird's one, but could see why theirs was more popular even if it was crap. The funnist part was before he announced the result, the birds were all saying they didn't like theirs ,and the blokes were all saying what a great idea they had. They then statretd to back track and blame the bloke with the idea, whilst the birds were all hugs and kisses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Duckhunter Posted 18 July, 2011 Share Posted 18 July, 2011 (edited) So the Mad inventor won. Thye final was a bit of a let down in my opinion. It changed into a "Dragon's den" type of show. The business plans of all of them were pretty stupid really, and I see that Sugar is now going to ditch the chair and concentrate on Tom's nail file............

JackFrost Posted 18 July, 2011 Share Posted 18 July, 2011 Didn't follow it that closely but that Chinese girl has a lot going for her. To get where she has at 21 is pretty impressive to say the least I do agree the prize is pretty mediocre but then Sugar is egotistical to say the least. No question he's doing it to earn big bucks for himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
