June 22, 201114 yr God, Tom really was an awful leader :( I reckon his days are numbered Helen surely is the winner? 8 straight wins and she got even better :o and it has been said but just LOL at 'Do the French Drive cars/like their children' :lol:

June 22, 201114 yr Can't stand Melody. I've been trying to put my finger on who she sounds like and its Deanna Troi from ST TNG! Really clipped and tight-arsed. Melody is a bloody liar too! Kath
June 22, 201114 yr 4 people in a train station told me that people here use the train. MARKET RESEARCH :rofl: The candidates showing TRUE skills! And I could have sworn they all were saying oui to the rucksack/child seat and non to the teapot. Need a little tweaking on the old interpretation there Melody!
June 22, 201114 yr The "MARKET RESEARCH" was hilarious. Yes, we should ask people about car usage in a METRO STATION.
June 23, 201114 yr Can't stand Melody. I've been trying to put my finger on who she sounds like and its Deanna Troi from ST TNG! Really clipped and tight-arsed. Melody is a bloody liar too! KathJust OOI, what did she lie about, exactly? :lol: I thought she was pretty much telling the truth the whole way through... :lol: But I am in serious love with her, so I'm probably just blind to it. (Just need someone to point it out to me :lol:) She is SURELY the winner this year? But either way I have a feeling, with the way they ended tonight's episode, it's going to be Helen vs. Melody in the final. Melody's face when Zoe told Helen that 8 straight wins and getting the big order has just put her as a front runner was PRICELESS :wub: Glad Leon's gone. Just Jim next week, Zoe and Natasha the following weeks and I'll be happy with whoever wins. I'd just prefer Melody > Helen > Susan > Tom... Tonight Tom showed that he's very hard working, but he really can not manage anyone or anything so he'd be useless to Sir Alan I feel... It was definitely Natasha's & Tom's fault as to why the team lost though. Their $h!t was god damn awful. Helen was wonderful though and is the main reason as to why they secured that deal! :wub:
June 23, 201114 yr Melody didn't outright lie but she definitely avoided and manipulated the truth especially the question about finding out about La Redoubt. Don't like Melody at all. Just covered her own back but if that's what Sugar wants then so be it. Tom was useless just as I expected he would be and Leon was an absolute joke. Natasha was lucky as she didn't do anything either. Helen was just amazing. Hope she doesn't come a cropper.
June 23, 201114 yr Helen finally living up to her 'golden girl' reputation with some ACTUAL footage of her doing some good work. Being on a winning team however many times with very little coverage does not make you exceptional. Melody is quite possibly the worst contestant of the year. I cannot fathom how anyone could not see the glaringly negative aspects of her personality which played out throughout the show. Manipulative, self-centred, self-important, arrogant, insincere, greedy. I could go on and on. Poor Susan is going to be forever remembered for her "do the French love their children?" line, bless her.
June 23, 201114 yr I don't see how Melody can be a winner based on last nights performance. She threw hissy fits when not getting her own way, with both what product was picked and the team appointments she'd made, she didn't listen to what Tom was telling her and just did whatever she wanted to do, and her market research was both hilarious and pathetic - I was gobsmacked that more wasn't picked up on that in the boardroom. Asking a few people a question in a Metro centre and discovering people use the Metro is utterly laughable and surely anyone with an ounce of common sense would've done something much better to pass off as market research. It's like me asking 10 people a question on here and coming to the conclusion that 100% of people use internet forums! She's not a team player, moans when she doesn't get her own way and is very manipulative. Unfortunately Alan seems to like that! With 5 females and 2 males left does anyone else think the next couple to go will both be women? I think as soon as she's on the losing team Susan will be gone, unless someone monumentally cocks up...
June 23, 201114 yr So, do the French like their children or not? Noone actually cleared that up for me :( Honestly, I know Melody is a bitch but she has some sort of hypnotic CHARM about her. I truly love her and she is miles ahead as the best contestant this year.
June 23, 201114 yr GREAT episode last night! Melody actually LIED at one stage when she was translating what the lady thought of the backpack, "Really good, yes" was changed to "It's OK". It's almost as if she was trying to sabotage the task! That said though, Tom clearly should have gone with his instinct and just pushed for the backpack. Quite an easy decision in the end to fire Leon as he did pretty much nothing all task, letting Melody carry him through. The only contestant more incompetent that is left is Jim and he is clearly being kept in for comedy value, as the interviews will hopefully(?) tear him to shreds. Natasha is ok, but her pitch was bloody terrible, she only got away with it because the others in that rather weak team were so awful. Anyway Karen laying in to Susan was the highlight for me!! :D Edited June 23, 201114 yr by Doctor Blind
June 23, 201114 yr Natascha was great last night, too! Natascha: "Parlez-vous anglais?" Woman: "Non." Natascha: "Non?" Woman: "Non." Natascha: "Non!"
June 23, 201114 yr Wow, just seen this, due have just returned home. Good episode. Ok, as you may or may not have guessed, Tom's my favourite contestant (because if I was in the Apprentice, I'd pretty much be doing what he's doing. I identify with him a lot). It was painful to see Melody walk all over him (although she's my second favourite. Reminds me of Joanna and Jamie last year actually), but by the time they were in the boardroom, I was pretty sure Leon was going. He's been more of a teenage boy in this process than Susan has been a teenage girl. Tom picks up things quickly, I've noticed. He may still be in with a chance, as he's the sort of person to learn from their mistakes. And Lord Sugar likes him. I can't have been the only one to notice a bit of banter between them.
June 24, 201114 yr Not too sad to see Leon go, nothing but filler, though I am disappointed he didn't flounce out of the boardroom like Beyonce (did you know he's a hetrosexual?). Melody it appears decided that this was going to be her 'act like a dickhead' episode. I like her but I love Tom like no other and therefore would not have minded to see her being hit by a falling piano at any point. I'm going to predict a Susan/Helen final at this point. Natasha is totally gone at the first possible chance yeah?, Melody is the token mouthy female who will inevitably make interviews but stand no chance of winning, Jim and Tom equally I don't see it happening, and anyone who would hire Zoe would surely have a deathwish by boredom.
June 29, 201114 yr Everything so far is indicating that Helen's team will lose as they seem to be doing everything worse, so they're bound to win!
June 29, 201114 yr Everything so far is indicating that Helen's team will lose as they seem to be doing everything worse, so they're bound to win! My thoughts exactly. MELODY IS WINDING ME UP SO MUCH. She's so stubborn in like... an 8 year old girl kind of way. In what world, would her scrunched up piece of $h!t, do any good?
