The Apprentice

[Ed209]

Blimey there's some tossers in there.

That Dan guy had to go, what a grade A piece of shit he was.

Door to door selling sausages, dear god

[Ed209]

They really do have a bunch of monkeys in there this year. A group of school children genuinely could have done better with that task. Its embarrassing.

[Ed209]

Exactly ... not even one pterodactyl impression yet this series. Its an outrage. :angry:

What a bunch of useless c**ts

[Milbert]

Last night was a classic "get rid of the non-entity in favour of the ones likely to provide better telly".

Do any of them have any redeeming features? Stella's about the only one so far who hasn't come across as a completely hapless twat.

What was the point in any of them doing their so-called "market research" last night?

The guys group just ignored the feedback they got.

The girl's group just spouted shite ideas at the people on the beach, then didnt bother giving any feedback to the design team.

[Milbert]

I was surprised that no-one pointed out the most obvious flaw in the book stand (aside from all the other flaws), which was that you'd have to take it out of the pocket each time you wanted to turn the page.

[eFestivals]

i imagine anyone who thinks a tent for your book is a good idea will most probably take a day per page

the girl who came up with the idea is a grade A major douche!

The idea was sound, the execution very poor.

People read on holiday, which most don't do any other time of the year. And reading all day on the beach is horribly uncomfortable, so there's defo a market for a product which does what their thing aimed to do.

And while the design they got was crap (I could have hugely improved it in 2 seconds, so it wasn't a git to assemble), it needed to be something cheap enough so that people would take a chance on buying it. If it was priced at around the £5.99 mark (which I reckon would be easily do-able for something that simple) it would fly off the shelves.

The likes of Boots aren't so daft as to offer to help develop a product which didn't have a market. They rightly spotted that it had real potential to sell in big numbers.

[nightcrawler13]

i dont disagree with the fact it would sell, like you say, if they could get the price down to under a tenner and put it in the holiday section of Boots then loads of idiots would buy it

however i just cant imagine a way of making one that isnt shit

I agree that what they did was shit, but it was actually better than anything I'd have been able to come up with initially for the same purpose. When they said the idea I knew it was good, but had no idea what they could do to achieve it.

But having seen what they came up with, huge improvements were easy - tent-type poles that remain strung together even when disassembled being the most obvious.

[Ed209]

Thank god they got rid of that illiterate cow. "Professionality", "Retributed" and "maneuverment"?! f**king idiot

She's the most unpleasant person they've had on the Apprentice. Her outburst at the end showed no class. I think that the contestants this year are actually quite good. Both teams did v well this week, and they were also good 2 weeks ago i think. Its unusual for them not to be clueless at this early stage.

I was so happy when she came out after being fired and refused to shake the other two's hand and mumbled something at them. About time someone did that rather than this hugging and shaking hands nonsense that goes on.

[Snufflebutt]

She was playing up to the cameras both on the apprentice and you're fired.

Her performance on you're fired seemed ike she was trying to salvage her image, bearing in mind that potential employers would have seen her act ike a complete twat.

She did and she was very quick when Dara asked "Are you going to listen more?" and caught him with a good one.

But she was a total nightmare on the Apprentice, and deserved to be punted.

[Kowalski]

Wouldn't suprise me if she had been fed that joke before the show started ...
