The Apprentice (IRL) 10/11/08

Our man in Havana

New thread each week from now on.

Let the games begin!

One of the guys from the DAA that set the task sounded like one of those computer voices...a bit like Steven Hawking.

She Devil

Real surprised at brenda arguing!!
The airport is boring isn't it!

robo

How could Orla mess up where she was to meet your man...in town or at the airport.

brettmirl

Is Jackie getting posher sounding as the series progresses?

Or is the botox just restricting the movement of her mouth?

Daith

Paddy looks lost. No he is lost

D-Generate

I found an inverse proportionality equation!

The Number of candidates is inversely proportional to the quality of skills on display.

As in, as the number of candidates decreases, the evidence of ineptitude increases.

robo

Poor Paddy...he doesn't have a clue but Orla didn't help him at all!

They are all ****ing lost ! For gods sake the shoite they are coming out with !

She Devil

Poor Paddy ... hasn't a clue! I'd say they lose! And this is what they will hold against Paddy.

D-Generate

He is being given zero direction. Two of them did not need to go to the graphic designer.

EKRIUQ

cool running commentary!

I dunno. The editing can be abit obvious. Shane & Brenda might be in the firing line. Though I think they're the two strongest.

D-Generate

I think you will find that we are the pundits.

She Devil

Playing it safe, Orla is really pissing me off!!! Nikii had a great point and she swept it away, suppose someone has to take over from Joanna.

Hmm, maybe, Shane isn't going to be there for the next day (personal commitment) so i'd say that is why he was making his voice be heard for the first day!!

Toto Wolfcastle

If they weren't so utterly stupid this would be so very meh.

anotherlostie

This is a much tougher task than selling cars to a pre-invited audience or recycling WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE waste. When I heard what the task was I felt this would show who the high performing candidates are. Guess that there aren't any, based on this! Orla and especially Brenda are on the high horse.

brettmirl

Anyone else missing Joanna - only for the sheer "I can't believe what's she's saying/doing now" factor?

Oh dearie me...that plane looks like something a 4yo would paint on a wall.

D-Generate

Hhahahahahah the plane!

Daith

oh dear god. That plane!

robo

Oh Jaysus...the painted plane!!! :eek:
They should have got a local school into to do it cos they would have done a good job!!

She Devil

oh sweet lord the state of the plane

Harpy

oh my god!! that plane is disastrous!!

okgirl

Whats with the flying shark logo? On sorry it's supposed to be a plane.

Looks more like a logo for seafood. The creche style painting isn't working either.

She Devil

So far, i'd go with Orlas room.

The plane is a disgrace, i'm mortified for them. I'm roaring laughing here.

Cazlou

Jackie's face actually cracked when she laughed at the plane! :eek:
:pac:

PurpleBerry

Boxes falling off the wall. Hilarious! And they were going to put glass bottles of expensive perfume in them?

What they on with the "Buy 'n' Fly is so original. I don't think anyone else has used it before" comment?

You and me both - funniest thing of the week, for sure!

Toto Wolfcastle

Jaysus......mortified for them!

MementoMori

Paddy = Tommy Tiernan's bizarro world twin

Kinda like what Tommy would be like if he had made the complete opposite in terms of every choice he ever had to.

Anyone?

Ckal

This is comical.

robo

How long have they got to read that scanner...or remote control??

She Devil

Paddy deciding on makeovers HAHA good man paddy boy!!

brettmirl

I wish my Sky remote did all that!

She Devil

fly n buy ... oh jaysus!!! DEAD! Orla you are fired!

Utopia Parkway

"We Googled buy and fly quite thoroughly and nothing came up".

Really?

Try it there and see how long it takes.:D

brettmirl

To be fair, i wouldn't have even copped that unless the voice over dude had said it!

PurpleBerry

Never mind mispronouncing the name of someone else's development, they can't even remember a name they came up with themselves!

Fly N Buy
Try N Fly
Buy N Fly

Oh my!

okgirl

Buy and fly

Fly n' buy

Bly n'buy

they can't even get their own logo correct....

....this is Irish comedy at its best!

robo

Yep defo think that Orla is going.

KevIRL

First result is "Fly n' Buy Aircraft Sales" :rolleyes:

D-Generate

Holy crap! I just tried to change channels there and my remote started saying my flight takes off in 10 minutes!

fricatus

Fy and bly... Fly and buy... Buy and Fly...

A bit like Stuart referring to the Elysian as the "Essien" :rolleyes:

Not as bad as the 4th-standard art project plane though...

TechieEddy

fly n buy! I mean are these people retarded?
Bring back Mark!!

Stuart had something else to go to.
I don't think that he will be fired but if he had stayed, he may have been on the chopping block cos of his arguments with Brenda at the start.

She Devil

Oh here we go ....

Bill got a hair cut.

D-Generate

Is it my sound system set up or does the quality of sound change every now and then? Like lose its base tones?

Howjoe1

whoever selected these candidates should be FIRED !

they're all brutal.

Daith

Ha. "Brenda was a good project manager but......."
