The Apprentice UK 2018

Curran is a knob.

The way he goes on is utterly delusional.

Cringe Airways more like it !

PM has to go, p*ssing me off every second he opens his mouth.

Liked Kurran had to go though

Jet Pop KABOOOM!

The whole team should've been sacked.

So Kurran admitted on You're Fired that he was laid back, didn't take the show very seriously, and that he had a business plan that "didn't have much to do with business". Bit disappointing that they still include people like this on the show.

Totally agree. He seems like a twat. The less of these people who make the show the better otherwise its just people seeking fame.

What would the male cabin crew have worn?

Both teams were terrible this week.

This is a really good season though. I like the contestants; they are really gung-ho on the tasks. Jackie Fast is a great comedy character; she switches from affable and fun, to a highly-strung psycho in a flash :pac: She'll have to make the interviews at least, might actually win it.

Everything was bad but the two women made such a hash of it, terrible name, terrible uniform. Such a bad performance.

I’m convinced Kurran wasn’t a real candidate. Either an actor put in for comedy’s sake or he was just an actor trying to get on television and make a name for himself.

I do miss when they picked candidates they thought might...you know...be good at business or whatever instead of just trying to get 'characters' and idiots in so we can laugh at the outcome.
I still watch it though - I'm addicted.

Loving Jackie tonight

Loving Jackie tonight

I love watching Jackie get annoyed. U can feel the pressure building inside her. She's at her best when she's in full on angry mode

Poor Jasmine is starting to get burned out. You can tell by looking at her. She comes across well, but being surrounded by these numpties for weeks on end is taking its toll!

Pogba's lack of business knowledge is showing more each week.

Right call imo, good talker/seller but he's limited and lacks basic business sense.

We're seven weeks in now and nobody's really emerged as a strong contestant. The only one who's jumped out even a little imo has been Sabrina, she has come across as quite smart to me, although she was understandably out of her depth tonight. Impossible to tell who'll be there to the end, seems like a total toss up?

Jasmine and Jackie would also be strong candidates imo Tom a close 4th.

I am glad Kayode gets to spend some time with his cat lol. I thought he was a bit unlucky to go he had a bad week, but if Tom can't win this task as PM.... Not a good sign.
Surely the weakest link is that lady with the eye piercing, I don't remember her doing anything any week.

In really annoyed at tonight's decision. Tom is useless. As was mentioned he has been PM twice + lost twice. If he can't even win on task he works at then forget about it. Sabrina is too weak. Very few good candidates this year. I did like Jackie until last week. That airhostess outfit was a disgrace. They all need to up their game.

Kyode was surely due to go soon but the logic of this weeks firing was so off.

Tom totally lost control and at the end of the day, blew £1600 by being minimalist and then escaping from the corporate client. And then he blew more money off the boat sale by late starting.

Sure, Kyode lost £80 on poor pricing but he wasn't the reason they failed this task at all.

I know Daniel won the task, but to be fair to him, that lady was wowed when she saw the rooftop garden. They completely exaggerated the two minor issues (artificial grass on the counter and bark on the ground) which could have been rectified in 5 minutes. To dock 1000stg as a result was nonsense imho

I don’t think she was ever going to pay 2500, the most I think they would have gotten from her would be 1800-2000 pounds, she was looking for any excuse to drop the price.

Perhaps it was poorly edited, but she said she would pay 2500 if she was "wow'd" and she literally said "wow". She then noted the artificial grass on the counter and the chippings on the floor. How that goes from 2500 to 1500 is beyond me. Even when Karen had her say, all she could complain about were the same two, easily rectifiable issues. Could be done in 5 mins with no extra material.

Think of how you would feel if you were touting for business and the customer shafted you like that. I know its only TV, but I just think 2000 would have been fair.

For people with no gardening experience I thought they did a superb job. Laying out all that astroturf and cutting it to size around nooks and crannies was a big task and I thought they would cock it up but they actually produced a professional looking job. Compared with what the other team did on the corporate job it was miles ahead. Tom really lost them the task there, he is in horticulture and should have stayed on the corporate task to do it well and ensure they got the full £2,500. Instead he scrimped and saved at the garden centre and then did a runner over to the other team who were only making small money. I thought he should have been fired for that decision alone.

Just an observation on the series in general- I dont think I have ever watched a program with so many puns in it- between the voice over and Sugar more or less every second sentence contains a pun about the task, its unreal !
