This might have already been mentioned on another part of this forum, but I think it's worthy of it's own thread in this section, mainly because I laughed more at last nights episode than at most recent recent British comedies. Last nights was a good opener, with sixteen of the most self-aggrandising twerps you're ever likely to see. Raef is an early star with his "words are my tools" soundbite. Great stuff.

I'm a massive fan. Interesting point about it being funnier scripted comedy. Starts to panic.

Adrian Chiles show after it on BBC2 is also great fun. And Chiles has that rare ability to be able to mock and ridicule somebody and for it not to feel nasty.

Thank you. I'll take a look at it. Just after I get through the next 12 hours of the Wire (probably shouldn't mention that here).

I thought he was just another smug tosser, but he's all right really.
Unlike Alex. MASSIVE tosspot.
Ooh, I love it.

Raef is likeable and will be a star. Fantastic TV. Obviously the production crew want to put through as many deluded cock clowns as possible but i wonder what the agreement with Sir Alan is. Presumably a small proportion are there because they might actually make decent 'apprentices'? Or maybe they're all there just to make good TV. Anyone here apply ?
PS is episode one repeated at all ?

Love it, love it, love it! What a programme.
Reaf's "words are my tools" quote only just beat the lass claiming that she is the best salesperson in Europe.
And Nick - I'm sure there'll be a repeat at some stage. There certainly was last year (possibly the following Tuesday)? You could also catch the episodes on the BBC website.
On Wednesday 31st December 1969 GMT at 7:00 PM GMT, chipolata said:
I think Sir Alan probably gets involved because it's free advertising for his many ventures. Over the course of the series they'll probably be a fair few free plugs for his various companies.
I'm not sure how many of them would make decent "apprentices", the last two series he seems to have picked the wrong candidate (didn't Michelle leave within about three months?). While it's merits at discovering top business talent are questionable, it makes great TV.

If we can discuss Hotel Babylon, Shameless, Skins and Louise Theroux's Weird Weekends on this section, then I think the Apprentice fits right in. Plus, don't be too harsh on yourself.

I think the main difference of this and other reality shows is that, without fail, you think *all* the entrants are cocks, and then slowly grow to like them over the course of the show. Other reality shows seem to be the other way around
I think it's a shame that this year's contestants all seem so young. Like about three/four years into Big Brother when it just became full of students.

It hadn't registered that Weird Weekends was in this forum. I'll move it. Skins I don't watch. Shameless and Hotel Babylon are, well not 'comedy drama', but very light-hearted drama with copious comic scenes. As far as I'm aware, The Apprentice is a reality show which, in some people's opinions, is funny at times. Much like Big Brother or The X Factor or any of that other shit. No?

I enjoyed the first episode.
I liked the facial expressions the More-Manly-Jason-Orange-Lookalike pulled as the posh barrister with crap sunglasses went on about a class divide.
I hope Alan goes all out and says something like 'You've fucked it up, you're a cunt with shit hair, you've got all the intelligence of a curtain and a face I'd never tire of slapping, you big twat - you're fired!'

Another classy episode last night, and very funny. Especially the girls bright idea to have a dedicated hotline so that people can ring up and, in the words of Alan Sugar, find out how their pants are doing.
And this thread should definitely be moved back into the Other British Comedy section to save me having to excavate it every week.

The fatal flaw with the show is that the prize at the end is pretty naff. If you really were 'the best salesperson in Europe' you wouldn't want to be hanging out in Brentwood trying to flog crappy plastic phones. Still, the losers they do get on makes for great telly!

I don't like bullshitters, blaggers, tricksters, fucksters, napkin folders, zionists, pianists, people who are richer than me, right hand men with big eyes, shaving, managing football clubs without hilarious consequences, women, the educated, tall people, board room chairs without cushions, secretaries who aren't attractive, right hand women who are attractive and lists.

I was out last night till midnight, so watched it when I got home so that I didn't find out who had got sacked before watching it. It's impossible to not find out who got sacked the day after.
I thought the Irish girl should have been sacked, just cause she's a bitch.

Raef is still my favourite though. I reckon he'll win.

Its quite difficult to pick a winner as a lot of them have quirky faults. But Raef is doing the best at the moment. I don't think he's been coasting as he's had manual tasks to do and got on with it. The Irish lady is annoying but the winning team leader won't of done herself any favours by crying!

PS: Although it pains me to say it, I think the posh bloke called Michael (the one who does the shit little dance every time something goes right) will win it. Although Lee is obviously the only decent bloke on there.

I probably would just gag her anyway.
I'm sorry that Sugar sacked Simon, he was likable, which is something that could never be said about any of the other pricks. Perhaps they could up the stakes next week and get them to sell the team leader's kidney. Lucinda could cut it out, fail and kill the fucker, saying I told you I'm not a technical person. Lee could then shit on Sugar's desk to show he's got the guts to go his own way.

Last night's was good, but it was a shame to see the Matt Lucas look-alike go, since he was quite entertaining. And I was also shocked at the pretty unpleasant scenes when Sara returned to the house and everybody was ganging up on her. Yes, she is a bit useless, and all her ideas ten to revolve around India/Bollywood in some way, but that's no excuse for bullying. Thank god Raef stood up for her.

No, I don't think it was racist, I think they just don't like her. The trouble is they're all very pushy egotistical people, and they think that anybody not like them is a slacker. And to be fair to Sara, her idea for greetings cards targeting Indian festivals wasn't too bad. Certainly better than environmental cards! Also, I liked Alan Sugar's idea for Commiseration Cards for people whose dad has just been kicked to death by thugs.

On Wednesday 31st December 1969 GMT at 7:00 PM GMT, chipolata said:
Although at the end of the day I guess it's more about entertainment than genuinely finding a great apprentice. And Alan's probably in it because it gives him three months of great publicity.

I found Matt Lucas entertaining too, but by the end of the episode he'd been such a chuff that I wanted him to go.
He should have taken Jenny in with him though. (Another idiotic thing he did wrong.)
I quite liked the singles day idea!
I know people that do that. It's the day after valentines day and it's called Hateness day.
So Aaron, what do you think?
Should there be an apostrophe in "National Singles Day"?
And where should it be?

Kevin off The Apprentice, however, has been got bang to rights. He might as well rail at the wind for blowing, or the sun for shining. If he doesn't go through the day constantly fending off shouts of "Oi, Daffyd off Little Britain," and "Margaret! Margaret!" then there's something very wrong with this world.

Thank god you're back, Eliie. I've been pining for you.

I know - I've actually had to do work today! It's okay - I've slacked it off to come on here.
Been conducting interviews myself... shouting you're fired as they walk out isn't correct conduct apparently if you don't like them. Take a lesson Sir Alan...firing before hiring is wrong!

I'd quite like to be interviewed by Paul from last nights show (the thick set man with a beard type thing on his chin). He seems like quite a decent bloke. Although unlike Claire I don't want to suck the lips off him.

Haha! Did yuo watch the programme afterwards where they made out like she fancied him? I also hate that twat who hosts that programme. Grrrr Adrian Chills-My-Bones.

I like Adrian Chiles! He's a top man, although he has got quite a squashed face. And the Brummie accent does nobody any favours.

Well we don't have to agree on everything Chip... You're fired!

Someone told me they went to the recording of last night's show, and that he's shockingly handsome in real life! She didn't fancy him on the telly at all before yesterday.
He must have special pheremones or something...

You excited about The Raef returning next week?
On Wednesday 31st December 1969 GMT at 7:00 PM GMT, zooo said:
YESSS!!!
Although sad he won't be in the flat and walking around in his little dressing gown ensemble.

Perhaps he and Michael will get it on!

I've made so many gay related posts lately I'm thinking of writing a book. 'To be Gay or not to be-Innit'. I think it's a good title.

Two comedy-related Apprentice snippets:
- Raef is on 8 Out of 10 Cats this Friday
- The photos in the boardroom waiting area were taken by Dave Gorman.
On a much less interesting note, I've just realised I went to university with finalist Alex. I don't remember him though.
As for the final - I think Ruth Badger, sorry I mean Claire, should win.

Claire to win!
On Wednesday 31st December 1969 GMT at 7:00 PM GMT, zooo said:
Definitely Claire.
I will accept Alex.
But if it's that other twat I'm firing Alan Sugar.
Lee's thick, and a cunt.
(Despite his admittedly very good pteradactyl impression!)

Oh yeh its starts with a P. Well Spotted Zooo.
Alex is so wet, that chick was quite cute last week and obviously fancied him.

None of them deserve to win.
Helene is a bitch with very little to offer.
Claire is a fame-seeking loudmouth.
Alex is a devious, arrogant wanker.
Lee seems a decent enough bloke but doesn't have much substance (and says 'That's Wot I'm Talkin' Abart' far too bloody often).
Kristina Grimes to win.
On Wednesday 31st December 1969 GMT at 7:00 PM GMT, zooo said:

I forgot again!!
It's worth having a crap memory, if I get to be all excited again every day.

Lee and Simon on the same team.
I knew he'd win Legend!
On Wednesday 31st December 1969 GMT at 7:00 PM GMT, EllieJP said:
That was great!!! I didn't expect that! He is right though - would you be able to work with Claire?
Also - in the presentation - why didn't they pick a name that Lee could say... "wyan"
On Wednesday 31st December 1969 GMT at 7:00 PM GMT, zooo said:
Heehee, Wyan.
Alan Sugar = retard.
That is all!

Disgusting set up:
Team A - Pick a concept no one likes because of the gambling and a smell no one liked because it was boring.
Team B - Pick a concept that had an expert publicly tell them was on a parr with what he sees in his office and a smell that the world expert of perfume said was good.
Then he dumps team B over profit when the ENTIRE show has never given profit a second thought. It has been quite routine for the team that sold the most expensive item won the challenge based on turnover alone.
Clearly its a TV show but they could at least pretend a bit!
On Wednesday 31st December 1969 GMT at 7:00 PM GMT, EllieJP said:
Agreed. Losing because the bottle cost more - yet if you upped the price of the bottle you could still make profit from a fantastic idea!
On Wednesday 31st December 1969 GMT at 7:00 PM GMT, Pete said:
you could have put it in a milk bottle it would still have been better! The name was better, the smell was better, the names link to the brand and advert was better, the feedback was better.....the bottle was an excuse.....in fact, i wonder if sugar paid the designer to suggest it in the first place!
when nick said roulette equals misery i thought it was all over!

Raef should count himself very unlucky IMO. Lee to win though, he's Sir Alan's sort of guy.

Ok here is proof that I picked Lee ages ago, I declare myself to be a business guru! Do I win a prize? I dont think anyone backed Lee before me in this thread, so I win!
(having a bad week guys, please let me win)

The apprentice gets paid a hundred grand for the year if he stays that long. How much does Suralan get for doing the show??? He could probably hire the whole bunch of bonzos for that amount, put them in an empty room picking their vacuous noses for the year and still turn a profit. Shouldn't the show be called The Office Hustle.
Lee????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Right.
On Wednesday 31st December 1969 GMT at 7:00 PM GMT, Sofa_Matt said:
That's a bit cynical Marc, here is suralan trying his best to find one of these no hopers a job, he puts them up, feeds them, gives them all sorts of interesting games to keep them occupied. I expect that all that he can afford after hiring his apprentice is a few NS&I premium bonds.
