The new parade of buffoons will pollute the airwaves for too many weeks, starting this week.
Prokofiev would be turning in his grave to see part of his oeuvre linked to this tawdry programme.
This music deserves so much better.
Viewers of this programme are entirely responsible for the fame of Katie Hopkins. I hope they are proud.
Best programme on TV we love it
Jesus! What a miserable life you must lead! 😆

I want to take part in it just to call Alan Sugar the Sugar Man and then take him to task for firing me from an interview. Look at his face in that link, what a ****.
Rochdale Herald sums it up perfectly...having said that, it is utterly compelling watching the inept twunts groveling and stabbing each other in the backs to save their own pathetic skins though 😀
The one benefit of the show is that these ****s had to take a sabbatical from their real jobs to apply, thereby giving their real life colleagues a break from their insufferable ****tishness.
I shall not be watching...
I’m not sure my cringe gland can take the stimulation of another series, so may just read the grauniad’s live blog.
*wonders whether yaketty-sax could be spoiled if used as a new theme tune*
Having watched that youtube clip at the top - can anyone tell me what the hell the conductor if for - no bugger seems to be looking at him?
Are there any hotties?
I love mean women!
Ever since the final round of this was filmed in my company's office a few years ago, I've rather struggled for motivation to watch it.
I’ve only seen it twice, years and years ago but I hate it with a rare passion.
I hold it entirely responsible for an entire decade’s worth of young people joining the workspace who put aperance before quality, “give 110%” in words only and think you have to be a rude and obnoxious twunt to get ahead when the exact opposite is true.
Wonder which of the contestants/attention seekers will most resemble one of us, on this forum. twinnie soundalikey type person.
parade of buffoons

“Buffoons” is too polite.
How many more series of this do they intend to subject us too? The candidates are always dreadful and Sugar is even worse. As far as I can tell the whole programme is an ego trip for him.

Cheers Frank, just googled Prokofiev and learned something 🙂
****tery about to commerce...
Twunt count seems to be higher on the men's side this year.
There are some truly awful pairs of spectacles in this years bunch
There does seem to be a large bellend ratio this year. Let's "smash it" 🙄
Good lord these lot are dense.
The florist is going to go. Place your bets.
" the costings dont matter "

"It was my strategy to sell it cheap."

The Sugar bloke - 🙄
The florist is going to go. Place your bets.
Apparently not!
The PM is normally the one to go.
Tough call tonight.
Either watch The Apprentice or see Jeremy Hardy live.
Sorry Suralan.....
Olive from On the Buses
The 4kwittery abounded tonight. I wonder how these people prevent their subconcious beating themselves to death out of shame during their sleep.
Were there any hotties? No. And wor lass thought the same of the blokes...Though their ineptitude might have clouded her judgement!
was a good show last night, how they actually manage to do stuff in real life without arguing with anyone or not admitting to having no idea about basic skills is a chance for a new programe.
Spectacular bell-endery as ever!
As a designer I love it when they get a design projects! I love watching the utter contempt etched on the face of the poor bastard actual designer assigned to work with these bunch of cockwombles.
"Let's do a mood-board!"
Yes.... let's.... just let me check... have we time-traveled back to 1987?
Great quite from The Shug though about a 5 star rating on Tripadvisor - "more like Crapadvisor" 🙂
Binners both teams did one. I imagine it was a task requirement.
Hated it less is about right - red yellow blue Brexit !
Correct person fired, on to the next week
Even his dancing was awful!
Did anyone else think the task actually helped set up both teams to fail? the elements of set a theme, design a mood board for a pitch and create feature wall paper set them down the wrong path?

Tough call tonight.
Either watch The Apprentice or see Jeremy Hardy live.
How did you find him? Saw him a couple of years ago - thought he was great on the radio but left at the interval watching him live, an hour of rant was enough.
Seriously, would anyone actually employ a single one of them
The girls team is properly bitchy.
The clowns are on the tellybox in a few mins...
They must realise they are a parody of middle management types surely to God.?
This is too cringeworthy to watch.
What genius thought that Cheesy Wotsits in a VIP box was a good idea??
a parody of middle management types
Whereas i recognise a lot of them....
most middle management is already a parody of middle management, full of cliche-speak and skull****tery. This just turns it up to 11.
Is it like Trump? Or Dragon's Den? If so, I'm out.
Boom
Boom
BOOM.
Good wasn't it. 😀
Felt a bit for Ansia but she wasn’t going to win it overall so as good a week as any. Charles is only 24, what a fuddy duddy ! I am surprised he lasted as long as he did.
I thought the housemates reaction was priceless, more dinner plus Michaela’s put down of Harrison.
I still can't see a winner yet. There are usually a couple of stand-outs by now.
Elizabeth seems to be the one set up as a buffoon to start with, but seems to be the only one with an ounce of common sense!
I'd have bought Sarah back in and sacked her as well.
shame he got fired really, he seemed one of the saner ones.

There is only one small redeeming feature, which is that S'rAlan is a cyclist.
I can't watch the show though as the crass idiocy upsets me. As somebody else says above that show has probably done more damage than anything else to the image of business and industry in young people's minds.
The issue is that in the chase for the sort of narcissist buffoons that want to parade their idiocy on national TV, they neglect to actually 'cast' anyone based on actually being any good at 'business'.
Most of them are in their early twenties, and don't have the first clue abut what they're doing (Charles - Management Consultant, 24 - ie just done the grad scheme)
Some may end up being great assets to their employers or make a load of money on their own (most seem to have their own business, which is no surprise as there is no-one to tel them what they are doing wrong), but at the moment just don't have any real world experience and it shows - it's all just mouth.
Last nights episode was an eye-opener in showing that [s]idiots with more money than sense[/s] loving pet owners will pay daft money for literally any old shit

I couldn't believe the size of that dog grooming 'spa' - most dog groomers round our way operate from a big shed!

Or indeed to have any old sh!t cleaned up!
I'm sure all these 'customers' are set up, not just the ones that they have to pitch to.
I'm sure all these 'customers' are set up, not just the ones that they have to pitch to.
Set up in as much as they have to be spoken to beforehand by the production team to get permission to be filmed which is why these tasks of them running round aimlessly trying to buy from and sell/pitch to random peole always seem to take so long.
The production team has gone in there beforehand, obtained all the necessary permissions and then the candidates do the "walk up, knock on door" thign.
Last night's was too cringeworthy to even watch in places. Although watching the first 10 minutes of You're Fired on BBC2 afterwards, Andrew actually came across very well and the crowd seemed very on board with him.
^^^^^^
Exactly. It also concerning when, on the food manufacturing tasks, they can just walk into a pub/restaurant off the street and sell them a load of burgers or such like - if I was the owner of a food business I'd not want my customers seeing that I'm prepared to buy food from any old chancer that walks through my door with a 'bargain'). It's like an episode of Only Fools and Horses.
Looking forward to tonights show - traditionally the best one of the series! 😀
Claude is gonna hand them their arses
First episode I've seen this series.
Mikaela... 😯
Dennis Taylor you mean?
At least she had an entrepeneurial (sp?) track record - nothing against the other two but I'm not minded to watch the final now. 🙁
This is always the best episode -Claude, Claudette and Mike are just brill, but the other lady was a bit like a crap John Humphries, speaking over the top of every answer.
Well that's me done... Anyone who tell Alan he ain't getting mates rates is a worthy winner
For some reason thats the first time ive focused in Joanne’s body, Crikey...
Anyone watch the extras program, wtf did June Sarpong think she was doing with that hair...
