Robroysboy Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Really enjoyed previous series. Looking forward to this one. Wonder if we will get any scots ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandydunn Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Isn't there a bird from Aberdeen in it? First time I ever watched it tonight,never recognised an accent. So maybe I'm wrong. Was good though,think I'll watch again tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pool Q Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 The Apprentice is brilliant. It means I get to go to a pub quiz on a Wednesday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RenfrewBlue Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Is there anyone in it who isn't a self-serving whank?Nope. That's why it's so enjoyable when they fail dismally at the relatively simple tasks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khana Lagur Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Apparently the application form for this show asks potential candidates a heap of stuff about business plans, business acumen and their track record in business. But it doesn't apparently ask if they have ever applied common sense to anything, or even been introduced to the concept of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marky Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Isn't there a bird from Aberdeen in it? The burd who got papped out last night kept breaking into a Scottish accent. So much so I gave her a mild Googling. Just said that she lived in London. Was from Nigeria but came to the UK when she was 15. Suppose she might have come to Scotland and then moved to London.

McExpat Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Terrible programme, doesn't realistically represent business / entrepreneurship in the slightest. From what I've seen the majority of sales are carried out by desperately running after members of the public, with a TV crew in tow, to spew a terrible sales pitch at them, no business does that as part of their daily operations / sales process! What we don't see on TV is the part where they will be saying we are from 'The Apprentice on BBC', 'if you buy you'll be on TV' etc, even with that leverage factored in the sales are usually poor. The only good thing about the programme is the impressive camera work that gives us great shots of London. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErsatzThistle Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Who on here actually bought an Amstrad computer back in the 1980s ? And did anyone throw away their money on a Amstrad GX4000 game console in 1990 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And did anyone throw away their money on a Amstrad GX4000 game console in 1990 ? We had a CPC 464 I think it was. Then we were given an attatchment that converted the monitor to a tv. It was amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flora MaDonald Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Watched this shit last night. It's refreshing to know the alleged future UK business leaders: (i) Don't know where Dover is (ii) Can't speak decent French (or English) (iii) Think a wee East End barrow boy is the second coming (iv) Can't find snails in France Pathetic.

Wouldn't take the programme too literally.its trashy telly dressed up as some kind of business game show. It's first and foremost for entertainment - hence why they let the rockets in that they do. I don't watch any "dumbed down" TV but find The Apprentice very enjoyable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, but in the real world, these clowns get wheeled out to give advice to folk. There's a jobsfair on at the Grand Central in Glasgow, featuring 'Stars from The Apprentice' to assist jobseekers. I suppose that's why the country's so fecked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
