With no time for respite, the hard work starts immediately, as the immaculately dressed candidates are given a bucket and sponge and told to make as much money as possible by starting up a cleaning company. With just eight hours to turn a profit, both teams have to roll up their tailored sleeves and get stuck in.
Under the watchful eyes of Sir Alan's aides, Nick Hewer and Margaret Mountford, the teams must decide where to go, what to clean and how much to charge. With highly competitive candidates all desperate to prove their worth, it is not long before tensions rise and tempers flare. Chaos ensues as the boys and girls compete against the clock to avoid a showdown with the boss, Sir Alan Sugar.
The winning team gets to check out their new home, a luxury penthouse suite with more than 10,000 square feet of modern living space, while the losers are left to battle it out in the boardroom. In the end, someone will be in the firing line. Who will be the first to hear the infamous words 'You're fired'?

Thanks for the link Joseph.
Also compulsive viewing in the Harmer household.
I don't think the best of last lot of contestants were as bright as their predecessors on previous series' so I hope there are a few bright sparks amongst the new intake.

Re: The Apprentice - Series 5
I can't like this programme. I'm sad enough to watch Big Brother but at least that is not trying to be anything more than it is - a reality show where the winner is simply the one the public votes for. It begins and ends there. But this is pretending to be some sort of respectable programme by getting some smug millionaire cunt to use it as a job interview for a real job.

Re: The Apprentice - Series 5
For me, The Apprentice is probably number 2 on the list of programmes which I make a point of watching.
There's a slightly added interest for me this year. At a family meal the weekend before last, one person mentioned that a few months ago he was asked to complete a reference for a neighbour who was applying for a new job. He thought nothing further about it until seeing last week's Radio Times, in which there was a piece about the lad concerned; he's one of this year's would-be apprentices. Only slightly added interest, I should say, as I've never met the lad, though I have met his parents. It turns out that he was the project manager of the boys' team in the first programme.

Re: The Apprentice - Series 5
I also love "The Apprentice" and enjoy watching the contestants completing their challenges. Unlike Big Brother the participants are mostly well educated high-achievers and, therefore, are more interesting to watch and listen to. I'm also a great admirer or Sir Alan Sugar who has become a multi-millionaire through his own efforts. Great television, for me at least!

I think The Apprentice, like BB and their ilk, has slipped in quality as it aims for more outrageous cringeworthy, "car crash TV" moments. Whipping expired equines is cheaper than original thinking. Or to put it another way, no wonder the country is in such a mess if this lot is representative of the best and brightest. Will the bookies offer odds on the winner of this series lasting longer than six months?
And don't you think some of the guys could have a proper shave before such an important "job interview"? George Michael they ain't!!

I agree - Maj is very likable - I think that tactically though he was trying to get under the radar for the first couple of weeks which is fair game! Whereas he could have worked harder and proved himself in later weeks - I think its going to be hard for James to be more likeable! The fact that he seemed so underhand and untrustworthy made me think he should go. We will see if he stays much longer in the series!Junaid Mubeen wrote:Maj is very likeable but brought nothing to the table. Absolutely the right call in my opinion.

Re: The Apprentice - Series 5
However ruthless he claims to be, I think Sugar often keeps contestants in longer than he should because he realises they make the show more entertaining. This is the only logic he could have used to keep the idiotic Sophocles in for so long last year. Maybe he's doing the same with James, who really is quite amusing to watch. He certainly won't be there at the interviews stage though.
Phillip seems a decent bet for the whole thing right now, although many have yet to really show us what they're about.

IAWTP. He booted Raef, the only man in the known universe who looks immaculate after getting about of bed at 6am, at pretty much his first failure but allowed Sophocles to blunder through the entire series.Junaid Mubeen wrote:However ruthless he claims to be, I think Sugar often keeps contestants in longer than he should because he realises they make the show more entertaining.

James has shown himself to be a raving simpleton and should have gone just for his calamitous boardroom performances. This week he was supposed to be project manager but just stood by as his team ballsed it up. The lads who went didn't exactly distinguish themselves on the tasks but at least had something about them.

Yeah - James didn't fulfil his role and was a nightmare in the boardroom. I agree with what Junaid says about Sir Alan/The production team keeping people in for entertainment. I know I will look forward to James getting fired though and that will keep me watching!! Then again people can be horrific earlier on and really come into their own right - remember Lucinda last season? So useless inititally -but proved herself as a manager and made it to the interviews. I guess nice guys like Madj don't make good tv and I think that is the reason why it went far in above over his performance in the task.Paul Howe wrote:IAWTP.

I didn't like his attitude either when he said he only had to do one take, so I really hope he goes soon.Junaid Mubeen wrote:Kate was quite awful at times in the catering task (week 2 I think)...Ben was the chief architect of their team's success this week.

I'm starting to like James and I wouldn't really mind if he won.

After tonight's episode I'm coming round a bit to James (though I still think he lacks the likeability factor to win!) but the highlight had to be Margaret's fantastic expressions when following them around with the rug!!

Re: The Apprentice - Series 5
I thought last night's episode was a bit bizarre. Neither team seemed clear on the exact objective (ie 'most turnover' vs 'most profit above true value') and it wasn't made clear to us as the viewers whether this was down to them not reading/understanding the rules or simply not being told. It seemed stupid that either team could have actually just pissed off to the pub for the day instead of bothering to try and sell, and won the task. Sir Alan even summed up at the end saying "what you should have done was identify the 'gems' (the rug and the shoes I believe) and concentrated on them", whereas in fact that would appear to be the most risky strategy as they were the only ones you could make a huge loss on. Queer.

Re: The Apprentice - Series 5
I go along with that entirely. Zero profit and zero loss would have been a winning strategy, so long as the other team performed as they did. And it certainly wasn't made clear to us, the viewers, what the scoring rules were. In previous selling episodes, the teams got slated even if they had just one item remaining; selling it for just £1 would have been better than holding on to it. I wonder too if the teams were aware that this was different.Jon Corby wrote:I thought last night's episode was a bit bizarre.

Re: The Apprentice - Series 5
Precisely Howard. Scoring them off against some arbitrary valuation was utterly pointless, unless you were penalised for items you didn't sell. You needed to know, for definite, the valuation you were being scored against otherwise you couldn't decide whether to make the sale or not. Valuations will vary from place to place. If you get the rug valued at £150 and sell it for £199.99 you obviously think you've done well, but if Sir Alan's valuation was £200 you'd have been better off not making the sale. Crazy.
They should have either been provided the exact valuations and told to try and achieve profit on them, or not been told the valuations but just been instructed to try and raise the most money. Worst task ever.

Re: The Apprentice - Series 5
Also in previous series episodes, exclusivity deals were a bad thing, and caused Alan "How many" Sugar's temper to rise, whereas in one episode this series they were congratulated for doing just that.Howard Somerset wrote:In previous selling episodes, the teams got slated even if they had just one item remaining; selling it for just £1 would have been better than holding on to it.

Makes me wonder what the whole show is actually about, and even whether Sugar actually knows his own mind or not.

Before today I would've said that Kate was a certainity for the final but I'm not too sure now, the sub-team of her, Phil and Ben were so astonishingly useless it's a wonder Seralan didn't just fire all 3 of them then and there. Mona- who in the past has seemed drippy- turned into a machine in that one and basically beat the other team single-handedly. What Craig says about them all being crap is true but it does at least make for unpredictable viewing.

I was hoping Phillip would get fired as he's basically an arrogant bully but I thought he might stay on just for the TV value. Glad he got the boot!
Re: The Apprentice - Series 5
Kind of a boring task last night, no real arguments or moments of hilarious stupidity. It's good that they're trying to freshen it up with different styles of task, but the two main "new" tasks (guess the value and last night's rebranding) haven't really come off for me.
Despite calling James a raving simpleton, I'm really starting to warm to him (probably since Jono pointed out his resemblance to God), and he did come up with the Treasure Flakes theme tune which is the single greatest thing anyone has ever done on the Apprentice. Kate, Howard and Yasmina have also done pretty well and I think one of those three will end up winning.
