The Apprentice - series 2
 
Just thought I'd let you know that †˜The Apprenticeâââ€Å ¡Ã‚¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢ starts a 12-week run tonight on BBC TWO at 9pm.

One of the contestants works for the same company I work for :)

A financial consultant called Tuan Le. I don't know him personally - he works in Bristol, and I'm based in Swindon.

Apparently in tonight's episode, they've got to sell fruit and veg... how hard can that be?!?

I watched this last night..............it's not about who is best it's about keeping people who make good TV. The team leader should have been fired but she is a bit of a hot head so she stayed !:mad:

From personal experience but most sales managers could apply for the title as well.

What is it with the blokes who get fired all walking out to the taxi with their coat collars turned up?

Congratulations to
Spoiler: 
Michelle


A very worthy winner IMO. :tu:

Re: The Apprentice - series 2
 
Yep she deserved it, even though financially she didn't do very well on that last task.

I think the telling point was in the final boardroom when asked why they wnated it. One was too much about what they would do for Sir Alan - not what they wanted from the job, the other was the opposite, what they wanted and less about what they would do.

Re: The Apprentice - series 2
 
I'm gutted I went to the pub then sat outside and had a bottle of wine with Claires dad and got in at 8-45 thinking i'd missed it. Pottered about and then found at 10pm that it started at 9pm....nightmare

Then to make matters worse I know who won and they say all the episodes are supposed to be online but there are only clips from the 12th episdoe available.

Re: The Apprentice - series 2
 
I'm sure there is a complete repeat on sometime - other episodes of the series have been repeated.

They said that the USA version will be coming to BBC2 soon and that the current series 2 can be watched online.

I'm really happy of who won !!! She deserved it !

Re: The Apprentice - series 2
 
I think Sir Alan got this soooo wrong.

Seems to me he was biased
1/ He praised the winner for taking one of his suggestions for the theme of the event, yet the loser had done the same and was torn apart for doing so, despite the fact that it went far more smoothly and tickets were sold out by the time the others got their act together.
2/ He smiled at the winner despite the fact that she had at least 1 person he detested on her team and that she had made the least money. He scowled at the loser as if she had just squatted and urinated in his cornflakes even though she showed she can make more money from an event he said would be 'crap'.

I think he had decided when he saw her walk through the door on day 1, looking back at it, and it showed in the finale for me and it seems to me he went on looks because judging by that event it was obviously not on ability to organise or make money, is this really the criteria for someone deserving to win over the other one who had a proven management track record.

and in closing, this was going through my mind when I saw who was to be in the final;
Badger Badger Badger Badger Badger Badger Badger, Michelle Michelle,
Badger Badger Badger Badger Badger Badger Badger, Michelle Michelle,
Badger Badger Badger Badger Badger Badger Badger, argh Alan Alan, oh Alan
(c'mon it needs to be done :P)
