Always gets better after the first few episodes when all the weirdos get voted out and the better candidates shine through. Last night was not as funny as other episodes but still worth watching.
How on earth that bossy girl stayed in the competition I do not know - she really is unmanageable! Shame about Simon but his days were numbered, he was just too nice and honest.
As to what Lucinda is wearing, that red ballgown effort looked so out of place. And matching gloves, what was that all about!!! |

That girl needs to come with a remote control for her motor mouth. you could then hit the pause button every so often. |

Have to say I was a bit disappointed with last nights episode, not as much fun as the others. Poor Simon, he lost it, but not without the aid of his "trusty" team.
In next weeks The Apprentice............
Rafe finally dons his cape and widows peak and invites the remaining contestants back to his castle for a "bite" to eat......
Lucinda, in a bid to stay in the competition, enlists the help of her 43 cats, shopping trolley and a campervan.
Alex takes on the challenge of becoming Project Leader without the aid of hair wax and a mirror.
Claire is given a megaphone and a spaceship - no one can hear you scream in space.
Next weeks task is a difficult one - the contestants must learn how to speak without spitting venom.
Can't wait. |

Much better episode last night - plenty of back slapping, high fiving and knobspeak - phew, for a moment I thought they were going to start and take it too seriously.
Really gutted that Lindy has gone - I was busy fashioning a head brace out of coathangers so that she had somewhere to rest her false eyelashes. Sigh. I'd also started a book to see how far up her forehead her eyebrows would end up. Ah well, back to the drawing board.
Is it me, or is Alex's hair getting bigger ?
Not happy that Rafe has dumped his Dracula look which is more in keeping, he's gone a bit too Noel Coward for my liking - just needs a smoking jacket, cigarette holder and a glass of 20 year old port and he's there.
Jenny - mmmmmmm, Lucretia Borgia with an Irish accent.
I think they need to ditch the theme tune and replace it with "Backstabbers" by the O'Jays. |

Can't believe Claire is still there - was very disappointed about that Blurggh don't like Jenny either.
I loved it when Sir Alan turned up at the house early and everyone was still in bed - did you see what Rafe came down in? He looked hilarious in that really old fashioned dressing gown - going for the 1920's look I think |

For Comedy Value - I love Rafe Couldn't listen to what Lindy had to say those spiders on her eyes were too scarey Jenny - yeuch
Whats the blokes name who is a bit of a "Geezer Bloke" I think I might quite like him.
Lucinda - bless - where are her cats. She is different. Different is good. The woman with the long black hair has clearly been slaggin the others off and Lucinda dropped her right in it. tee hee.
After last week I thought the comedy value may have disappeared. They didn't let me down this week. Hello Eskimo would you like some snow. Hello Mr Ice Cream Maker can I sell you this ice cream. Laughed and laughed and laughed. |

LOL
Also loved the bit when they had all returned to the house after the boardroom kick out - when Jenny mentioned to the rest of the motley crew that S'ralan had said she came over a bit cold and icy - the silence was deafening - don't all speak at once now !! Laughed my t*ts off.
Thought Lucinda did OK even without the cats and campervan. |

No it was Lindi and her false eyelashes. They came unstuck in the boardroom (not the eyelashes cos they're welded on), just her. |

They were not eyelashes - they were taran-toolas that had escaped from London Zoo.
Now lets me honest would you let anyone of them alone to run your business in any way. The answer to that is NO definitely not.
They are clearly not the top of the milk that lot they are just in the programme as they may prove good viewing. |

I might just let them open the post, or make the tea, or clean the loos but nothing as taxing as proper work. Far too dangerous.
They are good for comedy value though. I think Claire was on Magicalm this week, far too subdued to be true. Don't think she even shouted once
Love the old woman who sampled the ice cream and said it tasted like mashed potato - almost fell off the sofa and that was before I copped the deflated looks on their faces. Priceless.
Bring on next weeks attempts with the greetings cards. Searching for the Tena Ladies already...... |

I forgot about the mash potatoe comment. Excellent.
What about ooooo look there are loads of people doing yoga lets ask them. Loads of people. I counted three. Excellent.
The two blokes in the pub. One of them said something funny but I can't remember what it was now. Made me laugh out loud. |

Kevin was a bundle of angry shortness - but very amusing nonetheless. Would I have given him a job. Perhaps - sweeping leaves. Definitely nothing as clever as pulling ragwort though.
Singles Day - yup classic. Lets remind all the lonely people who don't want to be single (I know some do) that they are on their own the day before Val Day. Clever.... NOT!!!! And where in the shop are they going to put this display.
Green Planet Day - yup Jenny said it herself - I don't send cards as its not very green.
MMMmmmmmmmm - please don't let any one of them do anything that involved important decisions. Too scarey to contemplate.
Rafe is fantastic to watch. He is a bit Darius Danesh (sp?) there's a lot of love in the room. Yeah righto. Makes me laugh and laugh. Rafe for comedy king of the year. |

Oh and I know people can't help speach impediments and for what it is worth they have my sympathy. But why let him pitch when he can't speak properly. Nothing wrong with his accent but all that finking for freedom for the planet stuff for a bit Monty Python for my money |
