Unless the tasks are finding your own arse with both hands or organising a piss up in a pub I’m not holding out much hope for this bunch.

I think you're giving them too much credit already...

I've watched every series since it started out, and I am sure I will watch this but its just entertainment at this point and usually at how clueless they are.

Same - and I'm sure, the same as every year, I'll watch this with the kids and say "If you turn out like any of these walloping FKNuts I'll disown you"

A 'colouful' bunch, I'm all for diversity, but no way is that an accurate representation of UK. I think they are seriously over-egging it now.

(some cultures perhaps more entrepreneurial by nature, coupled with sociological factors so some ethnic minorities will naturally be over-represented in business...i get it)

on the face of it... Its about half and half isnt it?

I’ve stayed at the place the boys team had.

I'd just like to be clear that this lot of weapons grade cocktards are in no way representative of my culture.

Classic clueless capers

It’s like a car crash on a level crossing when the barriers come down

What do we think the psychology behind the facial hair might be. You've got a couple where it's maybe cultural but theres not a single clean shaven chevy chase.

Do young fellas today think it makes them look a bit older, therefore commanding a little more respect. Fashion victims. Emulating the great Lord Sucre. Or just fashion followers/victims.

Beards are immensely popular right now. Just looking around my office, at least half the men have beards of some sort, across all ages from twenties to sixties. I don’t think it really means anything. Not doing a full shave every morning is certainly a timesaver too.

Mine has stayed after going all Robinson Crusoe during covid..

Asif not really suited to the process, I wonder if any medical doctor has done well on it, the skillsets are so different.

Out of interest I watched his performance in Dragons Den last night. He was bleedin useless there as well. Totally torn apart, arrogant & didn;t listen to a word spoken to him.

Great to see DD when it was a scary place and the would-be investors were liable to eat you alive.

Compare that with the current love-in whereby even the craziest idea gets a warm embrace…

Agree it was like a completely different programme.

Anyone got a link that episode?
