The Apprentice: The Final Five [Tonight at 9pm BBC1]

[Marc]

Just thought I'd remind everybody that there is a special programme on tonight at 9PM, BBC1 that about the final five that 'profiles the remaining five candidantes, revealing the true stories behind their super-confident egos'. It was really interesting last year, its worth a watch!

[Lewis.]

I'm looking forward to it - In the final few weeks of the show, apprentice fever takes over me :hugesmile: Watched the first episode this morning on my sky+ planner, it's always interesting to see the final 5 in week 1 and how they've changed!

I might actually do that! Very good idea :) the BBC website is good as it details everything that the remaining candidates have done every week e.g. their contributions each week

[Lewis.]

I was LOLing at the first guy who went, Edward Hunter. His management skills were awful.

[Marc]

Oh god yeah, he was awful! :laugh2:

[Lewis.]

... and Edna <3

She shouldn't have gone so soon!

[Brad.]

So is someone going to get fired tonight then?

[Lewis.]

So is someone going to get fired tonight then?

Nope. It's basically just a show that talks about the last 5 contestants, their backgrounds and their time in the show in a bit more depth than the main show.

[Marc]

... and Edna <3

She shouldn't have gone so soon!

Oh she should have. Hahaha I LOL'ed hard when she was like 'So guys -big beaming smile-' somebody else: 'That went terribly' LOL

[Lewis.]

It was almost as cringeworthy as the roleplay between Melody and Tom :crazy:

LOL What are you on about? That was genius.. oscar worthy

[Lewis.]

It was just so funny that in the car Melody was going on about how it couldn't be cheesy and then when they did it I'd never seen so much cheesiness in my life! Gotta give it to them for trying though! :hugesmile:

I did watch it through the holes between my fingers LOl

I can't believe that they repeated it again though - surely they knew it was BAD.

[Marc]

Haha I know! They should have known!

LOL this whole thread has been just me and you.. no1elsecurr!

[Jords]

Might watch if nothing else on.

[Lewis.]

I hope it explains a bit more about their current jobs as it all seems very hazy at the moment.

[Doogle]

This was brilliant last year, I'll be watching.

[arista]

Loads of repeat clips
no new tasks.

No Ch4HD - The Killing
is better.

But a lot of new information and analysis so we can get to know the final 5.

[InOne]

Looking forward to seeing Jim's past

[Harry!]

I am going to watch it :)

[reece(:]

i miss felicity :(

[Marc]

Can't stand Tom... :bored: pathetic

[GypsyGoth]

Tom shouldn't be in the final five, same goes for Natasha.

[reece(:]

exactly should totally have melody and leon/edna

[Shaun]

Natasha :love:

[Lewis.]

There's something about Natasha that's very hot :love:

[Marc]

Natasha :love:

Ew.. really?

[Marc]

Melody instead of Tom.

That's all I suggest. Natasha kinda deserves it

[Marc]

(to Shaun)

As in she's attractive or you love her personality?

[Lewis.]

I think it's her confidence. Confidence is always attractive.

[reece(:]

susie:love:

[Harry!]

Susan <3

[Shaun]

I think she's a nice person. She's determined and has been pretty successful - won both her tasks as PM and only lost 4 times overall.

[Lewis.]

Edna :love:

Poor Susie though, Edna was a bitch that week.

[Marc]

She is a bit of a mess though.

Susan's baby picture was hideous :laugh2:

[Lewis.]

I think she's a nice person. She's determined and has been pretty successful - won both her tasks as PM and only lost 4 times overall.

She's very under-rated I think. If you look at her stats she is second best after Helen.

[Marc]

Edna :love:

Poor Susie though, Edna was a bitch that week.

Susan was a complete mess when she was explaining that though!!

[Shaun]

Awww, Susan and her mum :love:

[Marc]

That's both Susan and Natasha giving the.. "I was so unprivileged" spiel!

[Lewis.]

Susan was a complete mess when she was explaining that though!!

Nerves definitely got to her I think. Like it said, she was the youngest. That'll probably be her downfall if LS is comparing her to someone like Helen or Jim - experience.

[Marc]

Helen and Tom are probably the most employable people left.

[Lewis.]

Helen and Tom are probably the most employable people left.

Probably, but remember he's not employing someone this year, he's partnering with them.

[Marc]

Probably, but remember he's not employing someone this year, he's partnering with them.

Oops.. that's what I meant. They are both the experienced people who know how to deal with what's thrown at them the best.

[Marc]

Susan's grump face is so annoying :laugh:

[Lewis.]

Oops.. that's what I meant. They are both the experienced people who know how to deal with what's thrown at them the best.
Still don't think Tom would be able to manage a team of people. He did an awful job in the Paris task, although he did have Melody to contend with.

[Lewis.]

In a way it's quite sad that Helen thinks that about her personal life.

[Shaun]

In terms of likeability for me:
Tom > Susan > Jim > Natasha > Helen

In terms of good business acumen:
Helen > Tom > Natasha > Susan > Jim

[Harry!]

Desperately Seeking Susan to win <3

[Lewis.]

In terms of likeability for me:
Tom > Susan > Jim > Natasha > Helen

In terms of good business acumen:
Helen > Tom > Natasha > Susan > Jim

Agree with the majority of this :hugesmile:

[Marc]

He's useless but the 'product' making/selling side of the prize would be great for him and LS knows that he would be good at dealing with that. Helen can manage people very well

Intriguing!
Definitely don't know if Natasha is THAT great. I hope she proves me wrong next week

[Lewis.]

I think is LS was looking for an apprentice again, Tom would be in with a chance, but I'm not sure that LS would be willing to take on someone like Tom.

[Marc]

Oh trust me I don't think he should win at all! He doesn't stand up for himself and he's not very clear with his ideas and direction. I'm just trying to think of reasons why he is still in the race..

[GypsyGoth]

Tom is not a business person.

[Marc]

Tom is not a business person.

Tom isn't a person! Have you seen his robot eyes?!

[Shaun]

I don't understand what he's supposed to do - completely overrule his team leader?

[Marc]

I don't understand what he's supposed to do - completely overrule his team leader?

Stop being a little bitch. That's what he's supposed to do

[Shaun]

you should try that some time marc :idc:

[Marc]

you should try that some time marc :idc:

I did and I wrote a book about it.. perhaps you should get it out of the library one day and take note :idc:

[GypsyGoth]

:laugh: and his automatic nodding head.

[reece(:]

no wonder he was brill at selling the nodding dogs

[Lewis.]

no wonder he was brill at selling the nodding dogs

He caught their eyes and lulled them into a trance.

[InOne]

Susan :love: She's so cute

[Lewis.]

"The mouse that roared", as LS said. I love a good old rant in the boardroom, especially when an underdog seems to climb to the top of the ladder and make the others look like complete nobs, as Susie did to Glenn and Jim in the magazine task :love:
