The Apprentice 2008

Well Sir alan did say he wasn't bothered about degrees etc.

Thats why he wasn't to bothered about him lying although it was wrong.

Im glad he won clare was just being fake imo.
 
Yeha happy for Lee, actually had a feeling it would have been down to him and Alex although Alex kinda overshot it a bit on the pricing stakes with the bottle.

How long though until we see something like DUAL on the market.....with a decent scent....of course lol!
 
gutted that lee won.

He cheated his way onto the programme and didn't really do much whilst there. But Alan didn't want her gobby mouth so there was little choice really.

Surprised he didn't put Lee and Alex on the same team.

What's this about an aftershow? I didn't see any aftershow ?

Do you mean Apprentice You're Fired? That didn't feature simon or claire.

:(

You must have been watching a different show.

3 for 3 as Task Manager, never brought back into the boardroom because he quite clearly ALWAYS pulled his weight and worked incredibly hard.

Yes, he lied on his CV for education (a lot of people do), if he hadn't he wouldn't have gotten the chance. Lee, despite a lack of education, did better than anyone there and was the only one with common sense from day 1.

They need to follow American examples and do 'school-smart vs street-smart' so we can see just how much having an education and degree's doesn't help on these kind of tasks.

Good Shout! I have a degree in Architecture and not Business but watching some of the decisions these supposed "best in their fields" candidates makes me shake my head in dismay!

to be honest i doubt his lie about going to college for 2 years and not completing got him on the show, obviously he was incredibly insecure about it but his educational credentials werent what got him his spot, obviously.

I mean he can't even spell.

That aside he was a worthy winner, as said above, one of the few with common sense, didnt spend time trying to convince everyone how good he was by blowing hot air, remained on good terms with all others and was never in the board room.

Fair play to him, big chance for the guy
 
You can teach people to spell/present, you can even train him up for education... but he had ideas and was lively with a great personality who would work well and always aim to please despite being less qualified than the others. Nobody had anything against him, because he didn't mouth off about others or how great he was.
 
After Raef, Lee was my second favourite so I am very happy, and a little surprised that he won. I didn't like the way he treated Lucinder in an earlier show, but in the main he seemed a good guy that has been given a big chance.

It was also satisfying to see Claire finally lose, and in the final as well! Nice. :D

Nobody said he was. ;) I suggest you read from post 1278 onwards if you're unsure why he is being mentioned.

I really don't get why people like Raef. :confused:

He's had moments to show he's a decent enough guy, but he's still a complete tool. He displayed this perfectly last night when he was clearly just coming up with whatever nonsense he could to go with the 'Dual' brand name.
