In next weeks previews, when all 5 of them are back in the boardroom after the interviews they are sitting (from left to right) Debra, Yasmina, Lorraine, Kate, James. When it comes to the actual firings, he pointing to his center (Lorraine), his far left (Debra) and his far right (James).

Always the off chance that they just showed random firings and not the actual ones i guess, but it gets you wondering..

I think they do about 150 angles of his pointy finger and just put them on 'shuffle'.

Are you mad! :o

 

Who in their right mind would employ someone who has proven to be a liar and a bully. In the real office environment her behaviour on the Apprentice would have seen her taken down a "Conduct and Capability" route towards dismissal.

 

As James said "If you employed her, half the staff would walk out on strike by the end of the week", as she is completely incapable of asking people to do things, she has to order them to do things as if she is the love child of The Terminator and Margaret Thatcher!

 

I think with the way the editing has been done, I think Yasmina is a certainty for the Final, along with probably Kate, although last night was not a good edit for her.

 

I think Debra has been kept in the contest for so long because she is the best TV out of the contestants in this entire series.

 

If the Final is a rumoured final of two, then three will be fired in next week's extended episode:

 

Hence I predict:

 

1. Yasmina

2. Kate

-------------

3. James

4. Debra

5. Lorraine

Let's get real for a moment, what sort of message would SirAllun be sending if he employed Debra as his Apprentice, as she has proved she can't be molded! Especially, taking into account her questionable ethics in today's environment of thieving bankers and expense-fiddling politicians it would send an awful immoral message to society if a show paid for by taxpayers gives the prize to her. :lol:

 

if you were watching...lol.. they (sirallun, margaret and nick) agreed that debra was young and could be moulded to fit in better, once she calms down. tbh her beligerance makes her highly qualified to be quite a shark in business. as for james's comment... thats daft! AS IF! would sirallun REALLY let her cause such havok? would those people REALLY walk out of their well paid jobs? would sirallun let them without sacking her first?.... NAAAAAHHHHH!.

 

she has been in the fireing line many times and sirallun has had ample opportunity to sack her before now... id suggest theres a reason for that, and dispite her being a horrible person, she has the strength and commitment to make it.

 

but thats just my thoughts, she ISNT my fav candidate, but i reckon she will p*** her way through the interviews. if im wrong...i dont care! :lol:

Because you won't be one of the unfortunate souls who have to work with her! :lol:

I meant to say - And even if you're right you won't care - because you won't be one of the unfortunate souls who have to work with her! :lol:

Rob's right, there is a good reason why Debra's survived so long. Because Debra in the intereviews has potential to be hilarious and more imprtantly good TV.

That was precisely my point.

But unlike Rob, I would be flabbergasted if she wins it.

Really must learn to read the other posts first shoudlnt I LOL.

Don't be too downhearted about it Aled. Rich has a way of making one seem like a quivering schoolkid in front of a hardened, nasty headmaster sometimes! Even me - and I'm 78 on my next birthday!

Seriously Aled, I'm just bluffing my way through this series of The Apprentice based on the internet leak that Yasmina & Kate signed the sponsorship form for 2008 Apprentice winner Lee McQueen running the London Marathon (i.e. they've been working for SirAllun for the last four months = they are the final two, unless it is disinformation). :lol:

I do think Debora will win; an iron lady for troubled waters?

 

I suspect Kate will go sooner than people expect too.

The Apprentice Wednesday 03 June

9:00pm - 10:00pm

BBC1

11/12

However witheringly unpleasant Sir Alan Sugar can be, he has friends who are worse. Every year at about this time he invites these "trusted associates" round for a game of clay-pigeon shooting, using the remaining Apprentice candidates as pigeons and their CVs as ammunition. It's a grand day out for everyone. Well, maybe not the pigeons, who can be seen shattering on impact in the most satisfying way. "I'm gonna be absolutely brilliant in every single area," announces one of the five hopefuls left in this interview round, the penultimate of the contest. But that's before she meets Sir Alan's mate Claude Littner, "a multimillionaire with a reputation for ruthlessness" (as I'm sure it says on his business card). He reduces her to stuttering incoherence with a display of rudeness that could strip wallpaper. He asks another interviewee sweetly, "I wonder whether you're a bit delusional?" It's a great spectator sport. The absence of the usual business task ought to be a drawback, but instead we zoom in on every micro-flaw in the candidates' psyches. Tonight's boardroom session is unlike any other I can remember. About the last thing you expect The Apprentice to be is touching, but perhaps Sir Alan and his wannabes have very slightly softer centres than we realised.

 

Interesting..

Debra is the first obvious " great TV" apprentice candidate whom I believe is genuinely in with a decent chance of winning the show.

 

I don't think there's a clear winner this year. For once the interview rounds will be more interesting. I don't usually watch them to be honest.

 

 

For me, i think the interviews is one of the best if not the best weeks. I love seeing them get torn apart.

 

And Katies ruthlessness scale is TV gold.

As in Katie Hopkins?

She's running in the European elections! :o

 

I agree, the interviews are brilliant. Lee's pterodactyl impression was legendary! :heehee:

Yes, my God, Miss Katie Hopkins.

 

Really? :o

 

She is fabulous :wub:

 

The guys face made me laugh more tho :rofl:

Only just caught up in this last task.

 

Before watching the show, I would never have guessed Howard to be for the chop, not ahead of Lorraine, James or Debra anyway.

James seems like a brilliant bloke, but seriously, how is he the last guy standing??

 

Despite the odd comedy moment (Yasmina/James' pricing gaff, the facial reaction of her teammates to Kate's hideous leather jackets), there weren't any HUGELY monumental errors, which was a little disappointing.

 

Kate slipped a bit this week, she wasn't anywhere near as cool under pressure as Debra (who to be fair, really owned it this week). And she's beginning to show a nasty streak, particularly where Lorraine is concerned.

 

I'm edging ever more towards the idea of Yasmina winning, she seems to be the more rounded character this year. Although I personally like James and Lorraine, it's quite clear it's not going to be either of them.

I've gone right off Lorraine, and I was one of her biggest supporters back in the Phillip days. Yes, she's a victim, but my God she's annoying. She's the whingy friend who everybody tries to avoid and then curses via way of stabbing a voodoo doll.

Oh of course, you'd want to stab her after more than 30 minutes in the same room as her. But what Nick said was bang on; she IS right most of the time, but the others haven't yet learnt to acknowledge that, and she still needs to learn to stick her guns a bit more.

 

Nick was also bang on about Howard. Solid, but also totally unremarkable. Bar Margate-gate (which his team lost anyway), he's not had any stand-out moments at all. The other 5 have.

 

In fact, Nick and Sirallun were almost right about everything. They only thing I disagreed with them on was when they criticised Yasmina for not choosing any high-end items. This was odd, given choosing high-end items was exactly what helped bury Ben last week, and it was again the cheaper items which won the day.

Howard had a champion in Margaret though. On the 'You're Fired' show afterwards - she said Sugar had made a mistake and Lorraine should have gone - not Howard. She was right .... Lorraine is a pain in the arse.
