The Apprentice



Welll, in the Dept of Things You Utterly Already KNew, Surallen really IS a total misogynist. Clare was STREETS ahead.

All a bit quiet and dull really. About time they replaced Surallen with new blood I think - head of Virgin Media anybody?? he might need a job soon :)

PS Can Alex guest start on Lost now? With his shirt off?
PPS Did you know he was only 24?
PPPS Get Victoria Wood to judge next years!!!

I was very pleased with the result - Claire was a total bitch. I know that business isn't about being nice, but she stabbed pretty much everyone in the back, she betrayed her project manager on several occasions and although the Apprentice is about being a standout and standalone candidate, the whole point of being in teams is to go by what your project manager says. Given that she couldn't do that, and was in the boardroom so many times for being on the losing team, and was hated by so many for being so annoying - whereas Lee was the opposite - I cannot see how he could have chosen Claire over Lee.

I thought Claire was highly competent and Lee nice but thick.

I would have to Officially Dislike Victoria Wood if she got more involved with The Apprentice.

And I don't want to have to do that... :(

you get my txt?
You'd have liked it. She was v funny.
I've since been watching Enemies at the Gate while composing a ppt about how wonderful I am; I am now completely mystified..
It is however very easy to do such things while watching The Apprentice!

Claire was by far the weaker candidate - she's a bitch and a bully, and not good at working with others.

Lee worked well with everyone, was never brought into the boardroom, and is far less stuck up his own arse. Surallen made the right decision, IMV!

I thought C & L were about on par, but mostly I'm glad that Alex-who's-only-24 finally got what he deserved. Well, what he deserved was a scorpion pit, but a small kick in the entitlement was something at least.
