Why are the designs always so crap? The ‘bee pure’ with a yellow leaf?!? And the starpod with its ugly mix of pink and green

There's not many candidates on The Apprentice that get a guarantee to be SAFE , I'm glad Akshay got that peace of mind in the boardroom. As it's ridiculous he was even brought back . It WASN'T even his fault.

Anyway this is one of the best FIRINGS tonight! , Sophie was a dreadful drip full of contradictions. She even tried to play victim .why put yourself as PM if you haven't a clue what your "Vision" is. I knew she'd sabotage her own team from the moment she claimed to have "interior design experience".

Akeem was extremely fortunate to WIN as PM for a second time running, otherwise if his team lost then he more than likely would have gone. He should probably stop putting himself forward as PM now ,as he lets people bully & dictate him too much .

would be amazing if Akshay wins it all

the branding was quite okay, nothing wrong with that


the interior was the main problem which limited their customers to only partygoers so of course they weren't going to make major sales




the BeePure hmmm the branding well it had me first thinking of a new brand for Honey or something, not exactly a pod

exterior looked nice and showcased the climate friendly message well and the interior well bit basic but still better to be basic than tacky


i agree once again with Harpreet, she made them win the task again whereas Akeem failed to step things up, really Akeem's leadership skills are questionable

Both branding was awful, as it always is on the show, The party one was, as said, tacky, and ‘beepure’ I honestly thought was worse. The hideous blue and yellow makes it seem like a nursery minibus, on its way to the zoo

When you judge an item created on the apprentice , you have to consider whether you’d actually use, I would use neither of those.

The cast seems to be really lacklustre this year, lacking in ideas and coming up with things ‘just because’. Just because you somehow NEED an environmental message in there. What a idiotic idea. Investors in cars are going to be interested further by the environmental message? No. It’ll dissuade them. Makes them feel guilty.

Why can’t these candidates just do something good for once? The ‘Time’ Game, was mediocre, perhaps the best thing created by this lot then. It just needed working on further. Good in comparison to the ****ty environmental game, why was the professor looking like he’d just thrown himself into a trunk of clothes and picked whatever was at the top?

I know they have a week, but a GCSE student would be able to create something more convincing than what this lot have vomited out.

Not to mention the lack of intelligence between them. The misspellings, the common sense they lack. I often wonder if they pick these candidates on purpos.

I also thought most of them were actually business professionals, or that’s what they suggest they are experienced in, not ‘hotel workers’ with little experience. None of them have actually demonstrated any versatility.

Why put a hotel worker in charge of making an autonomous car? ‘I have experience in making car interiors’. They all voted for her, with no opposition to the fact it’s what’s on the outside that counts. Not to mention her swinging back and forth and lack of leadership. It’s obvious she was gone the second she said ‘no I don’t want a party theme anymore’.

I can’t even judge who might win. Why is the fella with the scruffy hair still there? Doesn’t say a word, hasn’t contributed anything.

Why’s the man with the ugly tash and chin beard there still? Keeps backtracking constantly. Back to the audience, no thought to whatever the small girl with the black Bob said about rounding off the speech correctly.

What about the blonde lass with the fake tan and small eyes? I haven’t once seen a demonstration of leadership from her. She seems to just go along with whatever is said.

Meanwhile Kathryn definitely shows potential. She countered all of the other fella’s ideas when it came to naming a brand, worked with what she was given despite being pretty mediocre, and slated the blonde girl who got fired down to the core. No messing about, that’s what Sugar likes. She has a good chance of winning. If not her, then perhaps the lady with the black bob.

Brittany was annoying in the driverless car challenge,she kept behaving as if she was a 1 woman show . Her & Harpreet are like twins with how they both behave.

She kept saying" I want this" and "IM happy with this" instead of "WE".

Aaron was a bit domineering towards Akeem aswell,they all see him as a pushover . It was as if everyone else was behaving like the PM in that group except for the PM himself.

Are you talking about the other blonde who's still in the competition ,or do you mean Kathryn ? Who was originally brought back?.

The only thing that annoyed me was how she voted for silly drip Sophie to be PM. Oh and the way she left it all to Akshay to brainstorm brand names . I kept thinking why doesn't she come up with something.

But that ridiculous Sophie sabotaged them anyway. And of course she tried to throw them under the bus .

I think Sugar was tempted to fire Nick ,but he changed his mind last minute .

Now looking at a list of the names:

Aaron - just goes along with what is said. Boring, no inspiration, will be gone soon.

Akshay - always seems to be on branding, which is what keeps tripping him up . May have something to add if roles are swapped in the coming weeks. If not, he’s gone.

Brittany - everything is not her fault, always someone else’s. This attitude will lead to her eviction soon.

Harpreet - Strong candidate with a mind of her own. However little mistakes she’s making may eventually lead to her downfall. Definitely a potential for winner though.

It’s between Kathryn who’s a clear leader imho and Akeem .

We are a week or two behind though so they may have already been sacked

Yeah she's a weird one ,I remember a few weeks back when both her & Sophie ganged up on Navid ... he was outnumbered in the non alcoholic task .

She was always butting in and never listening to others. And now all of a sudden she's taken a back seat and did nothing when Sophie sabotaged them all . It's like she can't be bothered anymore.

Kathryn & Akshay even quizzed that side of the team on the confusion of party but not party ' theme' lol. Both Stephanie & Nick knew it was a bad idea yet they went along with it. Shambolic really.

Sugar was wanting to fire Nick from last week as he's so clumsy and dithery , so i'm not even surprised . But i legit thought he'd do a DOUBLE . And tbh Stephanie could easily have gone aswell as she messed up in that task aswell.

I wonder if next week's tv shopping task will have a DOUBLE FIRING . I hope Akshay gets to be PM next week and actually WINS for a change.
