You've got to hand it to the casting team on this for finding such twats each series.

Does anyone else watch and, when they are all in the boardroom to get the results of the task, think who the hell is that? I’ve never seen them before! There were several last night for me.

I was glad Dean won by the end. I found him very genuine. I know of loads of people who have installed AC in their house in the last 5 years so I think it’s definitely scalable.

I always think that , surely in the modern 'business world' you have access to the internet Google translate, etc....
It's a wierd concept now isn't it?
What 20 something has ever used a physical map? They're asking modern dynamic thrusting entrepreneurs to rely on things that were virtually obsolete when they were children.

And I'm always curious when they use graphic designers for the product why the results are always absolutely shit and beyond basic. Where do they find these awful designers?
And are they going to pretend AI doesn't exist now?
I get The Apprentice is 20 years old but surely they have to acknowledge at some point that times have changed?

Levi seems nice but I think he had a lucky escape, he would've gone if they lost.

Karishma irritated me at first (because everyone irritates me in the first couple of episodes) but I think she's by far the best one there. Switched on, capable, adaptable. She's proven herself in a variety of tasks now.

I can't remember if it's 4 or 5 of them that make it to the interviews but I think it will be Karishma, Rothna, Kieran and Connor. Dan or Priyesh if it's 5 of them.

I actually really enjoyed last night's episode. I've felt like for years The Apprentice has slid away from serious business ventures and towards silly, laugh-at-idiots entertainment, but that last night was a bit of a return to form.

I was getting a bit tired of producers rewarding TV-entertainment stupidity in previous episodes (and seasons), like offering 50p for an item marketed at £30. And there didn't seem to be any real consequences for it, like sellers in the item-finding challenge having the ability to go 'that's disrespectful, I'm not selling to you' - like they would in real life over that. It paid for smart candidates to be TV-memorable, loud, and bolshy, even if in the real world it would get them nowhere.

But last night, they actually rewarded a more 'boring' but workable and likeable design and rightly criticised something ridiculously unwearable. I was glad to see it for once. I hope next week we see some viable business plans that we could actually get behind, as well as a bit of entertainment.

Rajan is smug and unpleasant and gives weaponised incompetence, so I'm glad he's gone.

I really wish Lawrence got the boot too. He's skittish and frantic and looks constantly on the verge of a breakdown. It'll be for his own good to fire him. Plus I'm sick of looking at his toupee/hair transplant/wig/whatever that is on his head that gives me the boke.

If Kieran gets through to the interview round he will absolutely be ripped a new arsehole and I’ll enjoy every second.

I can’t stand snivelling Lawrence the backstabber.
What a poor set of finalists this year.

I was really disappointed that Chisola didn’t have a good business idea, she was great. Glad Anisa is in the final, surely hers to lose now, she’s been more competent than Dean. I’m so bored of Sugar keeping on the cockney wide boys because they remind him of him 🥱
