Imagine how much money they'd have lost if it was an actual business venture where they had to pay for incidental things... Like all the overheads!

It annoys me that they never mention that, like their ability to forget the labour costs on Wheeler Dealers!

Apprentice candidate Sam Curry - "One of Sam's main business inspirations is Richard Branson. He agrees with the Virgin founder's ethos that you don’t need to be ruthless or cruel in business to succeed."

He obviously hasn't read Tom Bower's biography of Branson. Branson is definitely ruthless.

I thought Dan would be fired. April was almost in tears.

It does seem consistently to be the person who fails to stand up for themselves who goes, no matter how good or bad their performance was.

Mergim was classic,

"I can't believe all these people with so called leadership skills didn't want to be PM"
"Did you volunteer?"
"Erm...."

Dan was pish but he talked himself into a firing. The PM should have gone, no question. Bad decisions, no control, no profit.

The wee blonde looked better than in the initial photos. Might continue to watch.

Bloody hell, what a bunch laugh

Only one I like so far is the blonde ex-navy girl, she seems alright.

But that guy that was banging on about nobody volunteering for PM, Jesus Christ.. of the thousands of applications this show gets - that guy??

Am I the only one who thinks that the lady who seemed to be wearing a pink clowns outfit in the boardroom, looks like James Haskell the rugby player?
