Does anyone else say the name of the person they are speaking to over and over?

Yes Sir Alan, I did Sir Alan.

Is it a bit much ? or would this be standard protocol?
 
Simon stitched himself up - if he was good at the photography side, he shouldn't have been worried about being team leader this week.
 
Claire is clearly delusional.

She thinks she is something when she is clealry nothing.

Can't wait to see her fail next week when she is team leader.

Not a lot happened tonight and their IT skills where just pathetic.

Pathetic, I would say that my 7 year old sister that has never used a computer has better skills... how can they call themselves good at business and not know how to use a computer?

I think Lindi will win it - purely because they want a female winner this year.

Wasn't Lindi the one with the account manager / 24 hour support number for your under crackers. Also didn't she then say she wanted 10% - 15% tip after giving back clothes. Then i recall it was her idea to personalise the waiting service at the pub task. she seems to spend more time pimping herself out than actually contributing.

Staying at the back and keeping a low profile doesn't mean your any good, just know when to shut up.
 
The lack of very basic I.T skills for someone who is a possible candidate for 100k shocked me to the core tbh.

Claire is a complete and utter ****, infact 90% of the girls are.

Work as IT support for a big business, you will see plenty more people than that who are similarly incapable IT-wise, and earn just as much or more money. There's nothing shocking about it!
 
Surely none of the 20-30 year old age range though? Especially if they work in risk management?

Yup, most definately in that age range too. In fact one of the worst culprits in my office is of that age bracket... :D

They know exactly what they need to know to perform specific tasks required for their day-to-day roles, and not a sausage more.
 
I see what you're saying Rich. But surely these people know Sir Alan has found a lot of his sucess through technology so you'd at least make sure you're a bit computer literate. This girl didn't know how to copy files from a memory card. If you watched the show the IT tech said even his 3 year old could do it, Shocking imo!
 
It's on Virgin Media on demand now to watch for free if you have Virgin Media TV

Or you can watch it on Iplayer. It should be up by now.
 
Mad that Lucinda has got to this point in her life without really making use of technology or even ever using a digital camera!

I agree.

This was an 'easy' task - if they had planned well. Simon should have taken the photos and then agreed with the customer which one was to be printed, then noted down the numbers/names.

It wasn't rocket science :/

I have to say, I thought Simon was the strongest contender, but now that he's gone, I don't think I could really say who is going to win, as no one stands out.

He did, except somehow when they were transferring the photos to the computer they wiped out the photo's file names and ended up with 1.jpg, 2.jpg etc instead of the original file names of 484864156.jpg - how I have no idea.
