A good start. Usually there are at least a couple of females I root for, but I'm finding it difficult to feel any liking for any of them at the moment. The one who kept pretending to drop things could be very irritating. As for the guys, the one with one long eyebrow is the most unlikeable so far.

Very good opening, seems more promising then last years.

Glad rebecca stayed, I like her and think she has the under-dog appeal now, hope she does well

The girls were abject. No negotiations no basic understanding of value and no common sense. Dreadful bunch

@James @Josy

If y'all could update The Apprentice cast when you get chance so we can set our profile favourites that would be great

why is jessica the forum favourite when she's made the same "lol catch!" joke with the antiques an estimated 48 times in this episode?

my faves are:

- woman who looked really proud of coming up with the name Nebula (apparently Aleksandra)
- Karthik for asking permission to hug some bloke's girlfriend
- Rebecca (bc sweepstakes)
- Courtney for being pretty
- and Alana for taking the rejection of her team name well

on the other hand i kinda hate dillon st. paul already and want him dead

Oliver is like Jason from series 9 so I'm automatically a fan

Grainne seems fairly competent. I'm expecting a lot from her in future.

Karthik is like BB17 Chelsea Singh so I'll probably be a fan of him while he gets OTT hate on this forum.

Sofiane seems like he'll know what he's doing.

Natalie comes across like she'll be funny but probably leave Week 4-6.

Frances was so incompetent in the first episode yet never got punished for it <3

Samuel seems smart.

Alessandra comes across like she'll be one of the stronger candidates and this is the same woman good at cat noises. She's basically good at everything.

Jessica is just a delight. She'll either be fired next week or last extremely long via her being on a team with a winning streak due to them having stronger candidates (just like Scot last yet)

Not sure I like this task, how are they supposed to know how much everything is worth? I can't see where the skill is in it.

Rebecca seems awful That convo about how low she's allowed to take the price was embarrassing

Not bothered about Michelle being fired but I think I'd have preferred Rebecca to go.
It was an ok first episode but the task was a bit bland, a basic selling task (when they're not even going to know how much the items are worth) wasn't the most interesting way to start the series. Hoping for some more imaginative tasks.

*Loses task due to selling less than the other team*

"I am not responsible for the failure of this task. The task was not about selling!"

Jessica is as mad as a box of frogs!!! seriously it's like she's full of energy drinks , and she's already clashing with Trishna who kept giving her daggers lol . ohh this show always entertains me . I agree Michelle didn't communicate well with her team as project manager so it's no great loss really

They had time with an expert beforehand, who pointed out what he deemed 'valuable' or worth selling to trade rather than on the market. How much of his advice sunk in though is another matter.

Jessica is an immediate fave <3 and Karthik is an early fave as well <3

It was an OK episode, a fairly disappointing start if I'm honest, hoping tonight's is better.
