why, if you're a multi-millionaire entrepreneur (allegedly) would you take a junior position in Amstrad?  ;D

It's another example of yet more tedious and easily produced 'watch to see the colours and marvel at controversial participants' television.

Agreed. The "winner" is taken on by Sugar and the runner-up is as well. At the end of six months with the company Sugar then makes a decision whether to keep one, both or none

the thing that bugs me the most about the show is the way it portrays business, now lets take a random task...say making bread rolls, now all they have to do is buy ingredients with the money the programme gives them, tout for business and then sell the rolls for a profit and they go into the boardroom and discuss who made the most money. now correct me if i'm wrong here, but all they had to pay for was ingredients, the bakery was free, the labour was free, the delivery costs were free, the heating, lighting, fuel, water, rent, council tax was all free....so lets be honest, under those conditions with literally no overheads a trained monkey would turn a profit  ;D ;D

I`ve never seen a single competitor on any series of the apprentice that I`d want to call an acquaintance; let alone a friend or employee.......it`s like an advert for the good old fashioned 'sins': greed, avarice and covetousness, pride, anger, lust and vanity.  ;D

I enjoy it each year. Yes it is a "reality TV" show but a little better (IMO) than X factor, Get me out of here etc. When you strip out the Emerdale, Corrrie, Neighbours, animal programmes, there is precious little else on .

I hope that The Brand wins for the laugh factor but suspect the tall guy with the blond hair will!!
