apparently Lord sugar didn't want to wear PPE
That really, really got on my tits. I am too big to wear PPE whilst on site, wtf are you saying. I am bigger than the safety of my staff and myself. Pathetic. B.J.W said:
Personally, I'm rather sad Selina has gone. This is purely down to the animalistic feelings of abject lust that she brings out in me whenever I see her on the television. Absolute little sauce bucket, that one.
Yep. Catty and transparently manipulative as anything but she could do that on me all night long.technodup said:

i wonder if they had to redo the leaving sequence in the taxi
I reckon you're dead right there KTF! Just look at the wheels on the taxi when he gets in, then a few seconds later when you see one wheel from the onboard camera.And how dare he sack Freckles! That hot little minx was the only reason I watched it.

How odd that the week when someone resigns (which is unprecedented?) is also the week when someone refuses to go on "you're fired" (which is also unprecedented?).
Curious
Weird that. It was in the same week that Labour failed to stop the Syris bombing, and we all know Lord Sugar is a Tory - Need I say more?Curious

Katie Hopkins quit in one of the early series. And there have been a couple of no shows on You're Fired. So nothing unprecedented at all.Curious

Well to call that a "team" task was stretching it - the level of interaction between the pairs was minimal.
At the risk of sounding like a broken record, it does seem the series has slipped quite badly;
- Some of the contestants have lost all sense of protocol - stories being leaked to the press whilst the series is not completed, refusing to go on the after show. As a result, we all knew Scott and Selina's days were numbered.
- Producers running out of ideas - seems like most of the tasks are just "sell xyz". What happened to the advertising tasks of the past, treasure hunts in the souk in Marrakesh, tv shopping tasks, branding.
- The main requirement to get through seems to be sales and shouting ability. Anyone who has a more thoughtful or creative approach is usually patronised in the boardroom and then fired.
- Claude seems to bring nothing as an observer - Nick and Margaret were much more astute (and humorous to boot).
Might as well call it "The Salesman" sometimes. What did any of that task have to do with business as opposed to sales?At the risk of sounding like a broken record, it does seem the series has slipped quite badly;

I think personally Scott had joined thinking it was a serious competition became worn down down and once he thought he had no chance of winning decided to stop wasting his time. If you aren't in it to try and become a celebrity all of the artificial or downright cr*p challenges must become very wearying.

Scott went full retard.
Everybody knows you never go full retard.Check it out. Dustin Hoffman, 'Rain Man,' look retarded, act retarded, not retarded. Counted toothpicks, cheated cards. Autistic, sho'. Not retarded.
You know Tom Hanks, 'Forrest Gump.' Slow, yes. Retarded, maybe. Braces on his legs. But he charmed the pants off Nixon and won a ping-pong competition. That ain't retarded.
Peter Sellers, "Being There." Infantile, yes. Retarded, no.
Never go full retard. You don't buy that? Ask Sean Penn, 2001, "I Am Sam." Remember? Went full retard, went home empty handed...

They film all the getting in the taxi scenes at the start, hence why they all wear scarves done right up so you can't see the clothes underneath.And how dare he sack Freckles! That hot little minx was the only reason I watched it.
I imagine they chuck the subsequent firee in another cab and drive it round the block to do the final taxi interior shot.

I imagine it's why they all say a generic "I didn't deserve to go, Lord Sugar regret firing me" message, because they don't actually know what led them to be fired when they record the taxi scene!I imagine they chuck the subsequent firee in another cab and drive it round the block to do the final taxi interior shot.

It's just the walking shot that's predone, the scarves are off again in the taxi. They just say that because they're deluded, not for any production reason.They don't all say it anyway, some are quite specific about the firing and who they think was at fault. They couldn't say that if it was predone at the outset.
