I think Sugar should hire whoever was able to turn the ideas into a product in 24 hours.... Unless he already owns the companies who did that for the show of course,,

I get the impression they were just given something that already existed? Maybe they picked from a couple of options or something? The dev just didn't seem remotely real. Would love to know!

Soloman was made the scapegoat somewhat unfairly IMHO.
Really? All he did was moan throughout, mostly about decisions that had already been made and which it was too late to change.

He offered nothing constructive.

What a crap episode. I fast forwarded to the end to see who got the chop and then left it at that. Not done that in a long time.

Just got around to watching this episode. It was formulaic, with few stand out moments, other than the eye rolling of Claude & Karen. But I am sure the series will have its moments.

Nevertheless in the follow up show the audience voted Hired for him which is unusual. You have to remember the Apprentice is an edited show and he may well have made positive and constructive points which were not shown in the program to fit the agenda that he was just a moaner. He was also correct, the product was sh!t and the project manager should have been the one fired.

I’m not watching this anymore.

Along with Shugs, his scripted puns & the Amoeba like retards it’s jumped the shark.

The Twitterati are branding Sir Alan racist, for kicking out 3 BAME candidates in a row, according to the Daily Mail.
I did think that may be picked up on, could only ever be a race thing, couldnt just be they were on the losing team and he decided to fire them regardless of skin colour ?

Well I could see he wasn't going to get rid off Alan sugar Jnr (sorry I mean Tommy)

How many times has he feed the line when I was on the market stall well go back there then!!

We all know he would have seen there business plans and decided on who is going to win

would the retailer really but the pony thing, At least with the inventors one they got to choose different things instead of pretending they designed it all themselves and managed to get a professional packaged product in 24 hours?

I was surprised to see Riyann (spl) didn’t bring Tommy back to the boardroom. Then at the end of the episode when Riyann and Lottie came back to the house, Tommy went straight to Riyann to give him a bear hug. Obviously they’re mates.

‘Tommy isn’t just a toy, he’s your FRIEND!’

Entertaining car crash TV.

"Tonight Matthew, I'm going to blame cyclists."

WHAT? She doesn't know how to ride a bike. What did she play with as a child?

Next week..Alan - "I want you to design a new type of high energy, but safe low radiation nuclear reactor. I want to see a fully working prototype and then pitch it to several multi-nationals, then tomorrow I want to see you back in the boardroom"



Ps, Lottie the librarian has read a book about bikes, 'Janet and John go for a ride in the country'

Ha ha ha, 2 days to design and launch an electric bike!!! No wonder other electric bikes are so expensive if the current manufacturers can't do it this quickly. They should be watching this, they may learn something.
