    Katie seemed like such a bitch in her candidate video but she seems really quiet now, I don't know what to make of her.

    As for Ricky, there's no hope for humanity is there really.


    .... and Jane? She makes me want to estrange myself from my Irish heritage. Everyone's wrong but her.

    He works in recruitment, therefore doesn't count as a part of humanity.

    The only thing more annoying about how stupid most of the people in that show are is that they all believe exactly the opposite.

    Alan Sugar should use the hunger games method to select the best candidate.

    Really pleased for Duane, lovely guy. I also though what Ricky said to Micheal in the board room was a bit cold/ruthless but that's the game I guess :dontknow: ultimately i though micheal was out of his depth

    I feel as though Katie should leave next week. She looks like this full-of-life person who puts herself forward, but in fact she doesn't really do much and becomes overwhelmed by the responsibility; she's easy to influence. I'm beginning to hate the fact that she's still here. lol.

    I find that, once the later episodes start, they can get a bit 'meh' because the useless people have been removed already ... so the tasks, by and large (I can think of notable exceptions ), aren't going badly. I watch the boardroom afterwards and LS is ripping them a new one over a minor flaw, and I'm just thinking, "Yeah, I suppose they could have done that differently, but would it have really made a difference?" Someone gets fired because their team lost, but really they didn't do anything wrong, the other team were just better or luckier.

    Oddly, I felt like that after watching this episode - Sterling won mostly due to luck, Phoenix were unlucky. Their product wasn't as salvage-able when it went wrong, the buyer LS lined up didn't have any use for it, the good sales people were all put on the other team...

    I think Katie should have got the boot solely for having "men can be manipulated" on her CV, I mean, talk about equality in the workplace! If I put "women can be put in their place" on my CV I'd never work again! I think its great that women can reach boardroom positions but why some of them feel the need for "oneupmanship" is beyond me.

    I think Duane is an early candidate for winning this year. He seems to have an idea of whats going on which can't be said for the others.

    How about Ricky Martin saying that she would be easy to influence, or Katie putting herself forward as project manager and one of the guys saying "are you sure? it's a lot to take on, it's very complicated".

    That team was unbalanced tbh, with a bunch of males and only one female.
