View Full Version : The Apprentice [Series Five Disscusion]
Lucinda looks so beautiful in the boardroom.
I have a feeling Lucinda's team have lost. :sad:
Spike

I think Lucinda's team has won but not by much.
You can sometimes tell how it's been edited which team has lost.

Margaret just smirked!
Spike
14-05-2008, 08:40 PM
:cheer: Lucinda's team won
YAY Alpha kicked a*se.
Bye Michael.
Lucinda's team has won! by loads! Lucinda's still in it.
Mrluvaluva
14-05-2008, 08:41 PM
Claire did well!
I love Margaret. I think she's hilarious.
Personally I think Sara will be fired. She didn't really sell anything at all. Michael will stay mark my words.
Spike
14-05-2008, 08:42 PM
Its hard to guess who will be fired, hopefully it will be Michael.
I have started to like Lee and Alex tonight.
Alex is definitely safe. It's close between the other three though.
Spike
14-05-2008, 08:44 PM
I think Alex is a contender to win. I want Helene or Michael to be fired but I think it could be Sara she did nothing.
Mrluvaluva
14-05-2008, 08:45 PM
Michael to go.
Sara is fired. Michael stays and wins
Thought so. Bye Sara! :sad:
I hope that spoiler isn't true tp! :shocked: :bawling:

I absolutely despise Michael. A shame about the spoiler.
Spike

I liked Sara but she hasn't really done anything so far so she probably deserved to be fired. He should of fired Michael then too.

I've lost a huge amount of respect for Alan Sugar now. Not only did he fire the wrong candidate, but he missed an opportunity to fire that useless whiney ****. NOT happy.
And if that **** wins, I'll be livid.
Spike

Next weeks task looks good, I like the advertising tasks.

Agreed 100%
I can't stand Michael.
Get him out. =[
I honestly thought he was gonna fire him TOO.
That would have made my night.

I swear these tasks make no sense. What do they involve that would possibly be beneficial to the position that's available? Sure, you can clasp at straws and throw out words like "sales" or "advertising", but they're selling and advertising embarrassing **** just made up to make them look stupid.

Can't believe Sara got fired, that was the wrong decision!
Michael should have gone, all he does is moan and whine, and makes pathetic excuses when something goes wrong.
Next week's task looks good. This has defenitley been the best series of the Apprentice so far.
Another good episode tonight, didn't have a problem with Sara being fired as she did stuff all on this task anyway.
I think Helene made the wrong decision by splitting the teams on viewing the dresses, that just created a bit of uncertainty and in the end cost them the task.I feel it should've been up to the Helene to view all the dresses as that was always going to be the key choice in the task, the other thing to sell was always going to be secondary.
There was always going to be a risk on picking the high priced dresses but all you'd need was to sell one or two to basically gazump whatever the other team was going to do.Claire did a really good job in selling the dresses,she's one of the best people in terms of ability on the show,I only wish she would learn to keep her mouth shut because she'd probably win.
Michael continues to be the biggest moron on the show, it's quite astounding at how annoying the guy really is.He always seems to be wise after the event and wishes to shift the blame onto others.He was very arrogant in his own ability but there was little reason for him to be arrogant considering what a mess he made of selling the cakes.Did he really think being so pushy would entice people into buying them? Sara wasn't any better in terms of selling technique and practically talked her way into being fired.
Raef didn't look at all comfortable on the task, just milling around before rather amusingly putting on the teddy bear outfit.
Next weeks task looks a fairly dull one.Hopefully something controversial will happen or Michael will get the long over due sack.
I'm glad Sara was fired, but only for her own good because I did like her and I wanted her to go far. I don't know why I get the impression of this but I get the impression she is being bullied and targetted by the others.
I've already forgotten what next weeks task is ...
And I have a feeling Claire is going to win this.
Christina
14-05-2008, 09:36 PM
I knew Sara would go, after tonights show i quite like Claire (before i couldnt stand her) i think that its because Jenny went and Jennifer too x

It's make your own tissue brand, and an advert to go with it.
It sounds ok, I think the advert ones are quite funny as there normally really crap.

A strange episode last night. Where as Surallan was up for it last week this week he'd turned into a little mouse. On the strength of firing two last week he should have fired all three this week and as for Michael talking his way into a reprieve? What was Surallan on?
To fire any of those three would have been a good decision. I'd have picked Helene because despite losing her second task as PM she still acts like she's the best candidate. I dont mind a bit of bravado at the beginning of the competition but for her to have perfromed as poorly as she has and still act like she's the best is beyond comprehension.
I dont mind Michael staying, I just dont like the way he got to stay. He gives the viewers a comedy factor that not even Raef can surpass. I think he's useless but I enjoy watching him.
Cody
15-05-2008, 10:19 AM
Im very disappointed with Raef from this episode. I want Lucinda to win now!
Was disappointed that Sara went so soon. I think maybe 2/3 weeks more she could have stayed.
Barbie
15-05-2008, 10:26 AM
Michael should have gone and for a while it looked like he was going to
he whines.. backtracks and begs like a dog... he is only good at sales and that raises question marks! him to go next week!
I despise Michael! Why the hell did Sir Alan give in and why the fook did Sara go!
And Michaeals voice is so annoying, hes such a snobby little twat.

Shaun

Lovely. What a meeting of minds that must be.
Perhaps they will start up a kosher chicken business.Lindi can open up a hotline to detail the progress of Michael carrying out the process.

Well Lindi does have a massive arse, mabe he get's her to lay face down and imagine he's shagging himself :blush:

I think Michael likes a bit of the cock :dazzler: haha, I do have a soft spot for him, although he's really quite redundant!
Lee and Claire are my favourites, I'd like either of those to win - but I think they may have a threat in the shape of Alex!
Sam1994
21-05-2008, 08:01 PM
I really hope Lucinda, Claire or Lee will win! :hugesmile:
I love Lucinda. lol. When they had that kid come to audition and shut the door and went "He's gonna be work". lmfao.
Sam1994
21-05-2008, 08:52 PM

I'm sure Claire is safe in the boardroom now, there might be a double firing tonight :shrug:
their ad was abysmal

Claire, Raef, and Michael.
Claire shouldn't have been there IMO.
she nailed the pitch.
Helene got away again.
Helene and Michael need to go home like now.
Lucinda or Claire to win.
Cheers btw.
Poor Raef. Micheal is really crap and should have been fired!!

I have a feeling Lucinda will go next week, Sir Alan will not fire Alex or Lee and they will both gang up on her if they lose. Lee's temper is getting worse also I hate michael even more, dident think that was possible.

CassetteFinger
21-05-2008, 10:13 PM
Is there a final 2 or 3 this year? I swear there was gonna be a final 3 last year but Katie quit?
I didn't get the chance to see it properly this week, as I was flicking between it and the football but I'm bemused as to how that little cheeseball, Michael managed to stay yet again!
Alex's team didn't exactly work well together, most of the project was a complete farce to be honest.What with Lucinda not getting along well with the two guys and then Lee totally bumbling his way through the presentation, which was no surprise may I add, considering all the confusion in the planning of the speech.It was quite astounding that they managed to pull off the victory after all the problems that they had.Lucinda was a bit uptight for me throughout the task, fair enough she had differing views but she was didn't exactly put her point across to well.
Raef's team were a much more organised unit and put everything together well apart from the most important thing and that was the advert.The choice of Sian Lloyd wasn't exactly a clever move on their part but to not actually show off the product,well that was just suicidal.How was anyone watching that supposed to know the name of the tissues?
It was always going to come down to Raef and Michael for the firing due to the direction of the video.It made me laugh at the sickly mutual appreciation of each others work, only for them to lay into each other when it came to the boardroom.Raef's been good for most of the tasks and I felt he conducted himself pretty well in the boardroom but Sir Alan saw differently.How many more lost tasks and stupid errors is Michael going to get away with?
BigSister
21-05-2008, 10:53 PM
I didnt really watch it tonight either Dan but my mouth just dropped when I saw Michael had been saved
I read there might be a final 4 so the final might be week after next week if thats true
Spike
21-05-2008, 11:26 PM
Just watched tonights episode, can't believe Michael managed to stay yet again, what does Sir Alan see in him I have a bad feeling he will win.
I liked Raef didn't think he should have been fired of his team deserved to lose with that awful pitch made by Lee and the awful ideas of the other team.
Next weeks episode doesn't look that good.

I cant believe Surrallan fired Raef over Michael. I'll have to watch the Saturday repeat.

I'm shocked that Raef went, I was certain micheal would have been sacked. I think he could very well possibly be out next week though, he's the weakest contestant.

Another great episode last night. Shocked Raef went though, that git Michael managed to be saved yet again. I hated how Michael said how he was responsible for all the good ideas in the task, when clearly he wasn't. Clare's still my favorite, I hope she wins.
Cody
22-05-2008, 02:51 PM
Now that Raef has gone, im rooting for Lucinda big time! Lucinda to win!!! :D
If not Lucinda, then Clare. But i dont think Sir Alan Sugar is too fond of her.
Spike
22-05-2008, 02:53 PM
Two of my favourites gone in the last two weeks.
Lucinda or Claire to win

Claire is still my favorite, but I can't see her winning. I quite like Michael too.

24-05-2008, 01:43 PM
Lucinda and Claire are the only employable ones left, I think.
I was one of the few that didn't like Raef but I was shocked to see him go. Lucinda and Claire are still my favourites but I've started to warm to Alex.

He seemed so desperate when he was following that man to the meeting.
I just hope Lucinda sells well because if her team loses I think she will be fired tonight
BigSister
27-05-2008, 08:30 PM
i was thinking lucinda might go from the your fired clip its not as strong as it is which must mean its some1 he likes
I cringed with embarassment at Lucinda.
Spike
27-05-2008, 08:32 PM
It might be Alex because Sir Alan seems to like him.

Michael has got to get fired, I can't see how he is going to manage to stay again
Sam1994
27-05-2008, 08:42 PM
I know, even if he wasn't so annoying, he probably still would be fired, Claire and Helene are much more competent than him.
Thank God Alpha won. Lucinda got a bit of a grilling though.
Michael has to go. I bet he'll bloody stay though.
BigSister
27-05-2008, 08:43 PM
woooop they won
I just switched it over and was so pleased
Michael has to go

I really hope Michael gets the boot. He has to. I have a feeling it will be Helene though. I'm glad Lee's team one. Go Lucinda! Woo!
Sam1994
27-05-2008, 08:46 PM
Michael is only good at begging Sir Alan to keep him in, not a very good salesman like he says.
Helene didn't sell anything. She's a gonner. He likes Michael, which really pisses me off :mad:
BigSister
27-05-2008, 08:47 PM
lol when sir alan said but you didnt sell anything did you
Spike
27-05-2008, 08:48 PM
I have a feeling Helene will go, I can see Sir Alans points about her but so what if Michael is young he has just been a failure throughout the series.
Sam1994
27-05-2008, 08:50 PM
Ooooh! Sir Alan needs more time, lol
I think Helene and Michael could both be fired

ooooh get rid of them both lol

27-05-2008, 08:55 PM

I would of been happy if either got fired!

hopefully helena should go next week then its anybodys final. Even though i think claires going to win
Bright-Eyes
28-05-2008, 12:44 PM
It was about time he got fired to be honest. But there was no one in that board room I would not want like to see the back of. Lucinda to win all the way! I think she will do well in the interview next week.
Oh , Lucinda has to win this. :whistle: Haha. I just think she's brilliant but...
I think.. Helene out next, then Lucinda, then Lee. With Alex and Claire in the final.
It's going to be very close I think.
I think that Claire will defenietly win. Which I'm ok with. I'm happy with all of the final 5 this year. I would love Lucinda to win though :wink:

Well, your 'spoiler' was wrong wasn't it :wink:
I want Claire to win, I've loved her ever since Week 2.
I wouldn't mind Lucinda or Alex winning though.

I love Lucinda, and would love her to win, but she wont. I think/want Claire to win now.

yes it was as I said previously :rolleyes:
Finally got round to watching last nights episode and I'm so pleased that Sir Alan finally sacked the incompetent weasel otherwise known as Michael.
I was surprised at how uninterested Michael seemed at the start of the task after all the pleading he had done to try and stay in the past, you would at least expect him to give his all as project manager.
Once again the final result came down to taking a risk on the highest priced item.It's a calculated risk that often seems to pay off, all you need to do is sell one of those high price items and you've basically won, barring an extraordinary amount of sales by the other team.
Well done to Lee on a good decision with the cars but his handling of Lucinda was all wrong.He's meant to guide his other team members as the leader but he just pushed her aside and left her to her own devices.I can understand him wanting to stay with Alex to sell the Zonda but a little more help along the way would have been appreciated.It did show Lucinda's limitations with sales though.
Michael was the obvious choice to go.He's meant to be a very good salesman but this task just illustrated his faults once again.He picked the wrong location to try and rent out the Ferrari and he was far too pushy in making sales.Helene's pretty much a non entity but with Michael being the salesman he had to deliver and he quite obviously didn't.Any more chances and you would have had to seriously question Sir Alan's motives.
Now we are down to the final 5 and it's getting really serious.Helene should probably go next as she's just not shown enough potential to go on any further.After Helene you've got to look at Lucinda as the next in line to go.As much as Lucinda is a nice lady, this is business and not just a personality contest.She's good at managing people but I have got serious doubts over her ability to fill the role that Sir Alan is looking for.Claire might be a big mouth and that can really grate on me but she's about the best overall candidate left imo.

The only 2 people I can see winning now are Alex and Clare but hopefully it will be Lucinda and Clare in the final

Lee & Claire for the final 2 (:
Lee to win! <3

Finally Surallan got rid of Michael. I think even surallan was amazed that the snake lasted so long.
Why do so many people like Lucinda? I just dont see it. She completely got on my nerves last night. Apparently, some say they didn't like the way Lee spoke to her and he could have helped her more by briefing her on the cars. Why? cant she find that stuff out by herself? She's such a precious little Princess at times. As I see it Lee simply told her to get on with it. I dont see anything wrong with that.
I hate to say it but Claire must be one of the front runners at this point. She's changed her motormouth ways, She now listens and takes things in, she has a talent for sales. I think she's going to be in the final two.
I've just watched it back then. I like Lucinda but dear god did she get on my nerves last night. I hate Lee but I sort of agree with him that it doesn't take much to go up to someone and ask are they interested. Then if she thought she had a customer but didn't know what to say I think Lee or Alex would have been quite happy to step in if they weren't doing anything. And I think practically crying over whos idea the raffle tickets were was a bit OTT. But I really hate Lee too, he was being pathetic. She needed a bit of help especially with the Aston Martin and she clearly doesn't know a thing so should have been given some help, or she should have stayed with the Zonda and Lee or Alex do the Aston Martin.
I've started to like Helene, we haven't seen much of her and I think its down to bad editing for her. I think she does more than Suralan was letting on.
Michaels sacking was long overdue. I want Lee out next week and after that episode I want Clare to win, but I still like Lucinda and Alex.

Now that Raef is gone :( I think, and hope that Claire and Lee are the final two. That would make a great final. It will be Lee,Alex and Claire in the final unless something drastic happens!
Can't wait for next week. The interviews look really exciting, especially after watching the trailers.

Damnit, I accidently found out who gets fired next week...or one of the people, I don't know how it works
Lucinda

My thoughts:
Noooooooooo....hopefully it's not true, but I could see it coming if it is...
Aww not them! I dont want that person to go! How did you find that out?

I was on DS and I accidently clicked on the Spoilers thread instead of another one. Needless to say I was pretty annoyed as now I know what happens on Wednesday (I may have read it wrong, I left the page as quickly as I could but it caught my eye).

I never thought that person would be fired this week, there is at least 1 more incompetent candidate. :sad:

Isn't this the penultimate one? Where 3 get fired on the basis of the interviews?
Happened last year... with Tre, Katie walking and Lohit.
Shaun
03-06-2008, 08:20 PM
If 3 are fired on Wednesday, I reckon it'll be Lucinda, Helene and Lee.
Yeh that normally happens with two in the final and I agree with Shaun even though I want Lucinda to win.
Christina
03-06-2008, 08:42 PM
Noo, i hope Lucinda dosent get sacked.. but i reckon she will as in the preveiw i think she burst into tears in front of the interveiwer :conf: x
I think that Lucinda will get fired tomorrow tbh. I like her but it is time, she doesn't deserve to stay anyway reallly. Claire to win!
I think Helene should go before Lucinda. Definately. But after that? I think she will go, which is a shame, as I want her to win.
Shaun
04-06-2008, 02:15 AM
In the clip "next week, on the Apprentice" at the end of last week's - it showed someone accusing Lee of lying about how long he was at University- that might be important.
Spike
04-06-2008, 08:02 PM
Its on now. I am looking forward to this task, it was so good last series.
I think Claire and Lucinda will reach the final or maybe Alex
I want Lucinda and Claire for the final.
This one is so cringey with LOTS of awkward silences lol
He bullied Lucinda. Leave her alone :mad:
Bright-Eyes
04-06-2008, 08:12 PM
I really did not think 3 people would be going I had not thought about it. All I want is for Lucinda to get past.
Spike
04-06-2008, 08:15 PM
Lucinda was hilarious in her interview.
Impressed by Claire's answers, she did well.
Bright-Eyes
04-06-2008, 08:18 PM
Poor alex he's comming out a fool. He should stop talking about being 24.
Alex has no chance now haha.
I REALLY want Lucinda to be in final 2!
Spike
04-06-2008, 08:19 PM
I am bored of hearing about Alex's age, don't know if he will be making the final now
I have a strange feeling Helene might make it =/
Helene is doing really good, I'm surprised!
Bright-Eyes
04-06-2008, 08:21 PM
I still want her gone though.
LMFAO Did Lucinda just say she drives a scooter!
Spike
04-06-2008, 08:23 PM
I am starting to think Helene might make the final, she did well
Magic
04-06-2008, 08:26 PM
I dont think Lucinda will make it :sad:
Lmao he can't spell, bless.
Spike
04-06-2008, 08:27 PM
Those spelling mistakes were bad, he shouldn't be on the program.
It doesn't look good for him
Oh Lee lied aswell. Ouch, he's done for.
Woo!
So far Helene and Claire have been the strongest.
Come on Lucinda!
Spike
04-06-2008, 08:28 PM
Sir Alan doesn't like liars, he wont make the final
Spike
04-06-2008, 08:30 PM
It looks like its between Claire, Lucinda and Helene for the final. Claire looks the strongest.
Magic
04-06-2008, 08:30 PM
What did he lie about, I missed it! COME ON LUCINDA! (In Lee Voice)

He said he was at uni for 2 years when he was there for 4 months.

Oh dear!
YES! Lets hope that gives Lucinda a lead.
I suppose Claire will win, which I dont mind about.
Bright-Eyes
04-06-2008, 08:34 PM
All female final me thinks.
I'm thinking a Helene and Claire final.
Why are they bigging Alex up? He's annoying.
Spike
04-06-2008, 08:37 PM
I thought Alex didn't do well in the interviews, so I am surprised at the good comments.
I think Claire will be in the final and win.
Magic
04-06-2008, 08:37 PM
Yeah Lucinda wont make it!
Claire is definately in.
It's just between Lucinda and Alex I think.
is this on now? :puzzled:
Spike
04-06-2008, 08:41 PM
Claire has a job off Karen if she doesn't win
Bright-Eyes
04-06-2008, 08:42 PM
What one of the guys said about Lucinda was appaling and almost sexist.
Magic
04-06-2008, 08:43 PM
Yeah, I agree. Hope Lucinda does, but i doubt it alot.
It's either
Claire & Lucinda.
Claire & Helena
Claire & Alex.
lmao.
I really don't think Lucinda will make it tbh

Spike
04-06-2008, 08:56 PM
I thought Claire was going
4 in the final!
He could of kept Lucinda....bastard :sad:
Magic
04-06-2008, 08:57 PM
OH MY GOD!
He kept that horrible little Click. That was the twist this year then!
I really wanted Lucinda to win!
Oh well, Claire to win!
Bright-Eyes
04-06-2008, 08:57 PM
I do not think that was fair poor Lucinda.
Spike
04-06-2008, 08:58 PM
He should have got rid of Helene there is no need for that waste of space in the final
Spike
04-06-2008, 08:59 PM
I think its clear Alex of Claire will win with the teams they are in.
Next weeks task looks awsome. Lucinda isn't there!
Magic
04-06-2008, 08:59 PM
I am gonna watch your fired now!

Guess I will be watching your Fired for the first time.

04-06-2008, 09:03 PM

I really liked Lucinda and wanted her to win but the past 2 weeks she has really got on my nerves. I don't think she was right for her business either but I knew that all along and still liked her.
I want Clare or Helene to win. I've warmed to Helene lately and we've not seen much of her. Alex I've just gone completely off and Lee is a liar.
But I think Clare & Lee will have to win next week. If Alex and Helene win then Alex will get hired. If Clare & Lee win Clare will be hired.
Lucinda looks different, mainly because shes dressed quite normally and had all her hair chopped off.
Shaun
04-06-2008, 09:08 PM
I knew this moment would come, but still... :bawling:
And Helene shouldn't be there. Je ne care pas about her upbringing. She has all the charisma of blu-tack.
Spike
04-06-2008, 09:12 PM
Its obvious Claire or Alex will win. I don't get what Helene is still doing there she is a waste of space, she isn't no winner.
beanny
04-06-2008, 09:14 PM
Ive wanted Claire to win since day 1.
and she will. trust me :laugh:
Spike
04-06-2008, 09:17 PM
Lucinda is in a few papers tomorrow.
Jack_
04-06-2008, 09:20 PM
So glad Lucinda went tonight, I wasn't exactly her biggest fan. :laugh:
4 in the final! :shocked: Wasn't expecting that! But I still don't know what Helene is doing there!
She has nothing to add, she is just a piece of furniture imo, it should of been a final 3.
Anyway, I think it's between Claire and Alex now, and I don't mind which one of them it is as I like them both. :tongue:
