The Apprentice 2023

Also another example of just cruel stupid b
hy comments by the interviewers was the whole "I advise you could return to being an air stewardess"
It's not witty, or funny, or warranted. It's just horrible and rude.
Also Suralan's "jokes" (which has been mentioned countless times) are just cringeworthy. I assume they're written for him on a script which makes it 100% worse as they are not funny, and his delivery is appalling. Poor Tim has to forceably laught everytime he comes out with something which doesn't make sense or is something a 14 year old would have come up with.

You don't know the figures do you?
It pissed me off when the boxing girl was berated for saying the trainers in her gym would work for free. My PT has to give half the money she gets, per session to the gym for the privilege of training her clients there. Seems fairly common in the gym/PT world. She would be delighted if she could work in a gym where she doesn't need to pay anything to work there. I'm sure many other PT's would be queueing up to work at a gym with that model.
As she said, you know business, I know this industry inside out. But she got shouted down and bullied into submission.
I ditched the show halfway through this series, but came back hoping for something better from the interviews, it didn't happen.
It's a dead duck now.

I apologise for my lack of understanding but how do they get paid with this model?I've just caught up with the interview episode and what an utter farce. I appreciate that from the proceeding episodes it's clear it's not an actual attempt to find somebody decent, but even so it's a kick in the teeth when you've come this far and 5 rock up with their business plans which, from the sound of it, are all an utterly worthless waste of paper.
Not one proof-read or run them by an accountant, or just a friend with common sense? I'm fairly confident every single member of my family (not one who has ever run their own business) would spot it if I didn't put staff costs anywhere in the plan.
I know the rest of the show is effectively rigged to make them look spectacularly stupid (no phones, no comms between sub-teams, cooking tasks etc etc) but I'm struggling to see how that works at this stage, do they only get to write them in those final 2 days, with no access to a calculator or the internet?

As another poster pointed out if you took the 60 minute episode, there must have only been about a few minutes of actual interview footage - most of it was just bullying, rude, snide behaviour rather than trying to get an idea of how their business could work (admittedly they're rubbish ideas but you know what I mean)
Most of the interview part was just them sat outside waiting and commenting on how it went

When you have very good business people (Dragons) but they often just criticise anything that they don't quite understand or that isn't the normal way of doing things.
Often they can be right but there are many occasions when they just come across as narrow minded and stupid, especially when it's not in their particular area of work.
