The Apprentice - Donald Trump's bad hair battle
2010-05-24 15:10:00
I just can't understand it.  Obviously people have been ridiculing Donald Trump's bad hair forever, but is it possible it's getting worse as the years go on?  I hate to admit that I do sort of love 'reality' shows, but the Apprentice is only good when Donald's head isn't shown.  Last night was a tear jerker with the recent medical scares that Brett Michaels has provided.  I think everyone's thrilled he came out of it successfully, but I bet The Donald loves the fact that  Brett's recovery brought incredibly high ratings.  However, I still can't get over Don's hair (I don't care for his voice all that much either).  Now it's even thinner and exactly what color is it?  With...

Lucinda has failed to make it through to next week’s Apprentice final and was sacked by Sir Alan Sugar tonight.

Fired Apprentice Has More Sex Appeal
2008-06-02 23:00:00
Fired Apprentice candidate Michael Sophocles has claimed that he has increased sex appeal as a result of his appearance on the programme.Though he was one of the most controversial contestants of the series, the 25-year-old telesales executive has received more than his fair share of female attention in recent weeks."I'm a sex addict. I just love women," Michael told the News of the World. "I've slept with over 70 but I've only had two girlfriends, and I haven't been in love. When I'm with someone I always see other women who I want to sleep with."It's great - I can now just go up to someone and not have to make any small-talk. They'll just jump into bed with me."Sophocles also confirmed reports that he worked as a male escort while studying at Edinburgh University. He turned to the occupation after running up gambling debts."I was looking through a dirty magazine in bed and I saw ads for escort agencies. I called one and they wanted a £100 joining fee," Michael explained. "I...

Raef Fired From The Apprentice!
2008-05-22 11:12:00
I can’t believe it! How on earth did Michael survive last night’s boardroom grilling and Raef got sent home? In last night’s Apprentice the teams were asked to design a box of tissues, then come up with a thirty second commercial to promote it. Raef’s team not only made a better commercial, but he and Michael ...

2008-05-20 15:17:00
On tomorrow night’s Apprentice, Michael and Raef reveal their theatrical and musical talents. Michael tells Raef that he once played Fagin in a school play, then launches into an Oliver song. Perhaps he would have been better entering ‘I’d Do Anything’ than ‘The Apprentice.’

Sara Dhada Leaves The Apprentice
2008-05-15 13:41:00
Sara Dhada last night became the latest hopeful to be sacked by Sir Alan Sugar. Sara was probably lucky to have lasted so long on the show, since almost every team leader she has had has blasted her for being lazy, quiet and giving little or no contribution to their task. Sara’s team on last night’s show ...

The Apprentice - Week 7
2008-05-08 12:39:00
I enjoyed this week's episode of The Apprentice, where the teams were sent to Morocco to buy 10 specific items for the least amount of money.Having lived in and visited parts of the world where haggling is a way of life, I thought the teams did pretty well. Some of the things that I was looking for:Know the lay of the land before you start purchasing. Get to know the marketplace, what's on offer, and at what price before you start negotiating prices with a seller. That way you know whether or not you can afford to walk away from an item once you've started negotiating.Be respectful in your interactions. Simply yelling "too high, too high" at a seller or lying about having only a certain amount of money isn't going to encourage them to lower the price. Offer an educated and fair counter-offer to their price. Offering prices in writing rather than verbally is also usually best, as the seller doesn't have to worry about another buyer overhearing the great deal they just gave you.U...

The Apprentice: Lindi Mngaza And Michael Sophocles Get It On!
2008-05-05 22:32:00
Former Apprentice candidate, Lindi Mngaza, has dumped her boyfriend of three years so she can start a relationship with fellow contestant, Michael Sophocles. Mngaza’s ex-boyfriend Donovan O’Hagan is said to be upset by the callous way he has been treated. A friend of Donovan told The People: “He’s a gentle giant who wouldn’t hurt a fly. But inside he is furious about what Lindi and Michael have done. They have humiliated him. He had planned to marry her and start a family but all of that has been blown away now. “As soon as Lindi got involved with The Apprentice she changed and turned her back on her old life in Birmingham, looking for excitement with her new friends in London. From then on she lost interest in Donovan and took up with this bloke Sophocles. But it won’t last. The only person Sophocles really loves is himself.”
The Apprentice: Aggressive Scenes Get Cut!
2008-05-05 22:27:00
Apprentice candidate, Claire Young, has reportedly revealed that some really aggressive arguments and scenes have been cut from the BBC One reality TV show. Whilst on holiday in Spain, Claire confided in fellow holiday makers that during an argument one of the candidates actually got hit! “There are all these egos in one room, there was a lot of bad swearing and it got really aggressive,” she explained. “A lot had to be cut out. On one task someone even got hit.” According to the Sunday Mirror, Claire also admitted that after seeing herself on TV she has become very insecure about her appearance. “I look at myself on TV and I am fat and my face is big,” she said. “Even here in Spain I worry about getting recognised by fans, ’cause I let everything hang out - cellulite, boobs, my tummy. It’s not a good look.”

The Apprentice: Claire Young Couldn?t Get On Big Brother!!
2008-05-01 18:21:00
I just knew it! Didn’t I say earlier today that scenes from last night’s Apprentice show, with Claire and co bullying Sara, reminded me of Jade Goody and Shilpa Shetty from Celebrity Big Brother? It seems I was closer to the truth than I realised. In fact Apprentice wannabe Claire Young is rumoured to have auditioned ...
The Apprentice and the apostrophe
2008-05-01 15:06:00
I know that I blogged about The Apprentice only very recently, but today I'm going to do so again – after all, it's not often that you see a debate over the positioning of an apostrophe on prime-time television.For those who had the misfortune not to see yesterday's episode, the teams' task was to design greetings cards based around a new 'special occasion' of their choice. One of the teams decided to designate February 13 as a national day for single people, but had trouble deciding on the correct punctuation to use (see poll on the right).At one point during the three or four hours of apostrophe-related debate (which, fortunately, was edited down for the benefit of viewers), team leader Michael Sophocles even attempted to phone the editor of national paper the Telegraph to ask his opinion. The nice lady at the British Library was a little more helpful but not too authoritative.I've embedded some of the footage here (thanks, YouTube), so you can see what Sophocles finally ...
The Apprentice: Watch The Apprentices? Bully Sara!
2008-05-01 14:08:00
Did anyone else feel uncomfortable when watching The Apprentices’ gang up on Sara last night? It was almost like watching Jade Goody and Shilpa Shetty all over again! I was seriously proud of Raef when he tried to stand up for Sara and bring the discussion to a close, but with poisonous characters like Jenny and ...
The Apprentice: Watch Kevin Shaw Get Fired!
2008-05-01 14:06:00
Last night’s Apprentice was great and for once, I felt the right person got fired. Kevin, the Matt Lucas lookalike was arrogant and big headed. That would have been ok if had the business skill to back it up, but one look at him pointing his finger in the face of the Clinton Cards buying team ...
The Apprentice - Week 6
2008-05-01 11:30:00
This week's episode of The Apprentice was more of the same - another product design, product pitch task where the teams needed to create a holiday, design greeting cards, and then pitch the cards to retailers. Despite going through the motions and some good processes, neither team did very well, mostly because of two main factors.First, common sense trumps just about everything, and the teams just don't seem to have any (or at least don't use it). The team that proposed creating paper cards to make people aware of environmental/green issues was simply operating in a plane of reality that doesn't connect to mine. Whether you have loads of experience or education, you should have at least a little bit of common sense. If you use it every now and again, you'll get ahead.Second, at points during the show, both teams defined their market as 'everyone'. 'Everyone' is very rarely a good market. If 'everyone' truly is your market, you are either selling a commodity product (a tou...
The Apprentice: Two Girls Evicted For Cheating!

The Apprentice - Week 5
2008-04-24 12:06:00
An apology to my regular readers for missing last week's Apprentice. I had the good fortune to see Speed the Plow at the Old Vic instead, a fantastic night out! A key business message from the play: Canoodling with your assistant is never a good idea.This week's challenge on The Apprentice was for the teams to work with two boutique dairies to develop new ice cream flavours and sell them into new customers in London - a pretty straight-forward product development and market introduction task.It surprised me that the teams had few problems this week on the operational side, which has always been weak in past episodes. I attribute that to the fact that someone from each dairy was coaching them through the production process.What didn't surprise me was that the teams again failed to get their head around who their customers would be, what they would want, and how they would sell to them. While there are some candidates on the show with very strong communications skills, I still don...
Pose and Smile ? You Are On The Apprentice
2008-04-20 17:25:00
Be warned – this posting reveals who has been ‘fired’ from the forth episode and the rest of the post is only my observation and opinion based upon 60 minutes of edited TV, nothing more. This week Sir Alan Sugar came up with a great task. To succeed the team will need to show creativity, teamwork, organisation, budgeting, relationship building ...

Do you watch The Apprentice?  Candidates for the position of apprentice to Sir Alan Sugar are set business tasks in teams.  The losing team then has to face trial by ordeal by Sugar and his henchman and henchwoman.  Ultimately, with a great dramatic flourish and an accusatory pointed finger, Sir Alan announces, ‘You’re fired!’  And ...

The Apprentice: Watch The Candidates Meet David Beckham!
2008-04-13 20:31:00
Ok, so maybe thats a small white lie! In this weeks Apprentice episode the teams will have to set up their own photo agency, and though they don’t actually meet Mr Beckham himself, they do get to shoot a pretty good lookalike. It might sound very easy, but the candidates don’t just have to take the ...
The Apprentice - Week 3
2008-04-10 13:46:00
Last night's episode of The Apprentice was right up my street - they asked the teams to transform two pubs, bringing in new customers and seeing which team could make the bigger profit.In my blog on last week's episode, I said that I'd be looking to see if the teams would approach the 4Ps (product, price, place, promotion) in the right way in this task. They didn't.One of the things that is special about restaurants is that their location (i.e. place) is a defining factor for the product. The teams never got their heads around this. They dove into the task by brainstorming and agreeing what their pubs would serve without doing any homework on the neighborhoods they were in, who lived there, what other restaurants were around, what they served, or what they charged. It's obvious that none of the contestants have ever watched Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares - one of the very first things Gordon Ramsay does when he visits a new client is to walk around the neighborhood to identify wh...
Watch The Apprentice Boys Make A Mess Of An Italian!
2008-04-10 12:36:00
This clip proves that men are rubbish in the kitchen. In last nights Apprentice on BBC One the teams were both asked to set up a restaurant for the night. The boys went for Italian, the girls opted for Bollywood. Now I wouldn’t say that the girls had great organisational skills. In fact they failed to ...
