The Apprentice Series 7

That was truly cringeworthy. The weak PM should have been the one out of the door. I can see this getting worse by the week but is entertaining, just!

God that was painful. I wish they asked him how they would have promoted their app without it. It's the only thing they had over the boys and that was only because the boy's app was "untasteful".
 
Ugh. I'm ten minutes into this and it's hideous.

Edna is a witch...

Argh. This is one of those episodes where I want to pull my eyes out of their sockets and stuff them into my ears to hide from the cringeable content.

Eurogamer Expo, nice.

Jim is playing hardball here, arguing for Glen to go back in. That's made Leon look poor. Could spark a fair old rivalry between Jim and Glen as well. Fair play though, Jim was cool and calm doing it, so it's hard to dislike him for that.

I am starting to struggling to understand what this program is about, are people supposed to be gleaning useful understanding of business or is it just a reality show ?
 
If the task had been about making the best app in the best way with the best teamwork and the best pitching, the boys would obviously have won (with the exception of Mincent the bumbling idiot). However business being mainly about results, they decide to base the outcome purely on numbers instead of ability.

In general the girls seem much weaker than the boys this year. For me all the remaining boys are already pretty strong, when you think Lee McQueen won the entire thing a couple of years back.

It's more to find out who has already got an understanding of business, and who can learn more.

But yes - it's a reality show. It's Big Brother for people who think they're above Big Brother. People like me, for instance.
 
I bet 99% of the girls' 10,000 downloads got deleted within 60secs of use, crap name, crap application but the criteria was simply most downloads and they managed to sell an absolute turd to a worldwide audience.
 
Big Jim is doing NI proud at the moment - seriously dry wit!

The Edna doll is a scary big unit. She will probably be kept just for the entertainment.

Helen, Natasha and Zoe have been totally anonymous so far. They will probably be next to go.

Or however he said it. I hope Vincent stays for some time for the entertainment.

That's one of my propblems with the show; the editing. To me it was obvious that the cuts to each of the others in the car wasn't from when the APPle comment was made. The audio of the men walking out of the meeting where they were challenged by the idiot about the racial sterrotypes. It looked like a tough meeting, the men didn't look comfortable in it but the audio at the end was them saying "that is high 5's", "what a meeting". Audio not from the footage shown. The editing on the show is so bad now, it's turning into a comedy reality show rather than being about people who have a clue in business. There are a couple of decent people on it, but most of them aren't much good (from what we've been shown). I'll probably carry on watching it, but it has certainly changed for the worse over the last few series :(.

It's always been a comedy reality show, it just works under the pretense of being a show about business and entrepeneurs.
 
I laughed at "I can walk in to a factory full of electronics and know what I'm doing".

Clearly he's never used any of his products ;)
