The Apprentice 09
« on: March 25, 2009, 09:28:32 PM »
20 mins in and I'm already squirming at these bunch of utter utter tossers.

I know it's the same every year , that this is a TV show at the end of the day and that this 'mixture' of personalities is allegedly what is required to make entertainment TV - but wouldn't it be refreshing to just see 1 competent person  noooo:

Mind you that was probably the person that left before the programme started and maintained his 'reputation' as is  rubschin:

I just think it has turned into a soap opera full of absolute pathetic shites who are there for 'entertainment' only... perhaps it was always like that...?  Shrugs:

I don't think that it was BM when it first started it did have novelty value but IMHO did make quite good watching.  Have not watched it for a while but did last night, crap IMHO more like Big Brother than The Apprentice, the failure even has a show of their own WTF is all that about? shrugs:


If that lot is the best this country can come up with then we really are going to hell in a hand cart. evil:

I met him in a kebab shop opposite White Hart Lane (The Spurs Ground not the street which is somewhere else actually) at about 11.30 one evening. You are right.

Sir Alan Sugar's Apprentice sidekick Margaret Mountford announced she was to leave the show.

Ms Mountford, 56, has quit after five years to concentrate on her academic studies of ancient Egyptian manuscripts.

She was Sir Alan's eyes and ears alongside Nick Hewer, with the pair reporting back to their boss on how contestants did in their tasks.

Margaret said: "I have really enjoyed making The Apprentice and it was a very hard decision to say goodbye.

"But I am working on a PhD in papyrology and I would like to concentrate on finishing this before I need a Zimmer frame to get on the platform to receive it.

A PhD in papyrology -  eeek: - she should be well qualified after all the gibberish she has had to decipher  noooo:
