8. Katie

The infamous Skeletongate episode, which I've been long waiting for. I did find it unfair that Sugar practically told Tenacity that they won only to revoke their win and make Summit the winners by default just because of the paper Skeleton which actually didn't go against the task brief in the first place. I also feel that Felipe's firing was quite bias.

I really like Roisin, I think she's my favourite tbh. It was Sarah but she didn't last long and Roisin has been brilliant. I'm liking Daniel, I think he's an interesting character. Katie just irritates me tbh. Should've been fired weeks ago.

I thought Felipe was a clear winner so I welcomed it

Justice for Katie

The skeleton didn't fit the brief at all

Didn't really dislike anyone in this episode. I thought Katie came across well. I like her. She often has her annoying moments, but then she has her good moments, so I'm 50/50 on her in general, but I like her.

Karren exposing Sanjay's bitching about Bianca in front of Bianca in the BR was classic. Queen Karren

Mark choking during the third pitch was hilarious purely for the fact he's been picking at people's faults only for him to mess up himself and embarrass himself.

Overall, I'm happy with the Final 5.

The Apprentice 10 (2014)
Episode 11 - Interviews

1. Bianca
2. Roisin
3. Solomon
4. Daniel
5. Mark

I'm liking everyone left in this episode tbh. I don't mind Mark, but he has this arrogant and cocky demeanor about him, especially in the BR, always putting other people's businesses down and saying he'll do better than them. Sad thing is he was right (well Lord Sugar thought so) as he ended up winning the thing

This episode for me was brilliant as this year is my first time watching TA, so it was interesting seeing what happens in the later stages of the process. They all had interviews with different advisers (including Claude Littner) about their proposed business plans.

Claude ripping into Solomon was brilliant. I was creasing. Solomon's 4-page business plan consisting of little doodles of boats. Claude telling him to leave and Solmon walking to the window instead of the door.

Yeah, I really enjoyed this episode. I can't wait to see this years interviews. I've got one more episode to watch now and it's the final and I'm really excited for it (even though I know the result). But I just want to see what happens and how the winner is announced etc. I also never knew fired candidates appear in the final episode to help the Final 2 with launching their businesses. I saw it on the Next Time at the end of the episode. Very excited in seeing some of the fired candidates again. Sarah, Steven, and Lauren

Now that I'm almost done with TA10. I understand when people say this years series has been rubbish/bland/boring. I mean don't get me wrong I've enjoyed TA11. But it is bland and basic as **** compared to last years series. The boot order this year has been tragic. And even most of the good ones in TA11 aren't on par with the good ones in TA10. Plus last years cast and tasks were better.

Can't wait for TA9 which is apparently better than 10.

Really? Personally, I've preferred Series 11 so far. I feel more invested in the candidates this year than last year. I never got the Roisin love.

And I most definitely cannot agree about the tasks being better. Last year's tasks were literally dire - the wearable technology and YT channel ones were impossible tasks, the latter having very little to do with business, and there were too many product design tasks.

BIB - Because she's a brilliant candidate.

I understand where you're coming from with the invested in this years candidates as last year had about 20 of them - some of which had hardly any airtime (Jemma being a prime example)

She was a good candidate but I never strongly felt I wanted her to win.

And yeah, it came from there being too many candidates. I still think 18 is too many tbh. They should go back to 16.

(also because his business had the fastest turnover of any winning Apprentice business or summit like that)

Reported for implying Bianca's business plan is ****.

I'm starting it tonight too. After I watch the final of S10. If not, tomorrow.

[Lostie!]

If anyone ever comes across a decent place to watch Series 5 let me know.

I love the boardroom music and the music they play when the fired candidate does the walk of shame. So suspenseful <33

It was so much more suspenseful in the earlier series... Watch this firing! They changed the music to something much more vapid in Series 9...

A week and I've finished this series. I've thoroughly enjoyed it and it's a brilliant series.

My overall ranking of the series. With there being 20 candidates, most of them I haven't really formed much of an opinion on because they either got fired early (Chiles, Scott, and Robert) or were hardly featured in the show (Jemma), so some may be quite low on the list because of that. Mark was okay in the last few episodes, but I've spent the majority of the time disliking him, so he had to 2nd worst behind James. Ironically I like James on CBB, but on TA he was just irritating, aggressive, and really snappy. And out of a good cast like TA10's he stands out as one of the least-worthy characters of the series. But overall as a cast, I don't strongly dislike anybody - even the ones in red.

The final was good to watch. It's my first time watching a final for TA and it was very good. I love how the show is split into two parts. The first being the actual show where the Final 2 launch their businesses and then the second part being the spin-off where they interview the runner-up and the winner. It was nice seeing all the candidates back again, especially the ones that helped the F2 with their businesses. Personally I'd have preferred a Bianca win, but Mark was a good business person. I'll give him that.

I loved the ending where they showed Lord Sugar's favourite moments from the last 10 years and the nice farewell to Nick for leaving the show after 10 years and showing his best bits from the last 10 years. It made a nice ending to a good series imo.

Starting S9 this evening.
