Surely she will live to regret her comments on TV, what an incredible snob. I think she referred to lving with the apprentice mob as akin to living in a creche? -

No, he's not bad. He is not as arrogant and bloody-minded as the others. And he is naturally very pragmatic. He is also quite happy to accept someone elses opinion/advice. I think he'll do alright.Originally posted by timh..Total.. ..Liability..?Comment

I see what you mean and I think he fits the Alan Sugar mould - hard graft background, limited education - but to be honest, he is a bit sh1t.Originally posted by XTCNo, he's not bad.

If he can turn it around in the next few weeks, I think he could be in the final.
Having said that, at the end of yesterdays show, when they give you a preview of next week, I am sure he was in the firing line again.Last edited by Clippy; 3 May 2007, 11:15.Comment

Nice bloke but limited. Similar to Paul (the ex army chap fired yesterday) in terms of IQ but less arrogant, and therefore more useful.Originally posted by XTCYeah he is a bit sh*t.Hard Brexit now!

I've only seen it a couple of times (and I haven't watched previous series' at all) but the thing that struck me is that they all whinge about each-other given half a chance - and I'd sack the lot of them just based on that.Comment

It reminds me of graduate recruitment days. The company wants to see team working, but the candidates think it's about who shouts loudestThe court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

I've done those kind of things on a number of occasions and it's complete w*nk. We had 2 or 3 really aggressive people who just shouted the others down, but that seemed to be what the recruiters were looking for. Not my style at all and needless to say I didn't get recruited.Originally posted by BagpussIt reminds me of graduate recruitment days.

But the people who win Apprentice are usually the quiet ones. So Lohit would be a strong contender.Originally posted by XTCI've done those kind of things on a number of occasions and it's complete w*nk.
