I absolutely despised Week 2 of Series 12 when it first aired. I thought it was a joke, an abomination of the show. But omg I just re-watched it for the first time and I ****ing loved it.
Although the actual campaigns weren't memorably bad, the episode was littered with both small and large moments of hilarity: Natalie's misunderstanding of the term 'strapline', Karren saying that the use of 'Shake It Off' as the soundtrack to the girl's bathroom ad was unfortunate, Jess falling apart, Karthik's rampage. Also, the losers' cafe sessions, and the boardroom were both pretty iconic.
I hated that both teams lost when it first aired, but actually, having both teams lose for ****ty results is way more fun to watch when it happens in Week 2 than when it happens two weeks before the final (I'm looking at you Series 11).
