For folk who've had some shit times to come out the other side via her gym? Rochelle has had a shop for 10 years and still has the one but thinks she'll now be opening one a year? WTF? Marnie can't lose this surely. I have just been watching a fair bit of Limmy recently and I am monitoring egregious acts of trauma dumping as a consequence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 It’s a travesty if Marnie doesn’t win this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albertlegend Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 Every year I watch the apprentice, never miss an episode but always lose interest in the final, especially since it became the business partner, always think the folk who come back seem even thicker on their return or they just don't care! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 Counting down the days until a 92-year-old Lord Sugar eventually takes it just a bit too far with his cheek to one of the candidates and gets a hiding in the boardroom. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The interviews are always the best part of the show. "You say you're a Director of a multi million pound company but I called the Managing Director and he says you're a cleaner" Karen Brady in particular was being a deliberate arsehole this year. They've spent an entire series referring to her as 'Karen' alongside 'Tim' in context only for her to come over all "its Baroness Brady to you" in the interviews. Smug cow! I've ranted before too about Sugar insisting on massaging his ego by having contestants constantly refer to him by "Sir Alan" or "Lord Sugar" in person. Anyway, final was completely pointless this year despite Sugar's attempts to pretend there was any closeness or tension in it. It was obvious within about 10 mins of the interview stage who was winning. I'm actually surprised the final 5 wasnt more manipulated unless all of the other fired competitors really were appalling. Two of the final five had no viable business at all (& shit business plans) and Megan's was too left field and far away from working to go any further. I'm certain Sugar had zero interest in opening a 2nd London branch of a hairdressers either but at least it was a working business so Rochelle made the final by default. The alternative was to call the series a week early! Edited March 24, 2023 by Skyline Drifter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbornbairn Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 It's depressingly sexist to look at what the female winners do in business - 2022 - cake shop 2019 - bakers 2018 - fashion swimwear 2017 - sweets 2016 - cake shop 2013 - make up This year we had hair extensions, a hairdresser and sweets. Marnie at least was doing something less stereotypical. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When she got to the final 5 I had a think and thought she had done well in tasks and couldn't really remember being in the boardroom a lot, or at all. As soon as I found out what her business plan was I stuck the money on her. I knew she had won last week when, as I said after last weeks show, Sugar's mates were going into the intricate details of the lease she already has, while the rest of the candidates weren't even getting the basic numbers of their plans correct and getting them torn to shreds as a result. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizfit Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Glad to see Marnie win. Rochelle was fucked when she chucked teammates under the bus, and then decided to pal around instead of designing her salon, Marnie had the intelligence of designing her own and entrusting others. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine the furore (just from Brady too) if they had been all male...... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
