The Apprentice

Ok now I don’t really watch TV but I have to say The Apprentice makes for compulsive viewing. I don’t know if it’s so good simply because the contestants are so bad or simply because it is so good.
The past two episodes have been priceless, last nights was about having to produce a 30 second television commercial for a loyalty card? (I missed the first 15 odd mins so not to sure). Let’s just say the end advert was just too funny.
Last weeks has been the best so far though.
Two teams; both have a marquee in a prime location for the Thames festival.
The task: Host a successful themed eatery for the festival.

One team was a complete joke! The Bengali guy, labelled as slimy Syed by the media ordered 100 chickens for 100 pizzas over the phone without mentioning weight! They bought toppings for 500 pizzas in total and only managed to make 90. Surprise, surprise they made a loss! I know we always think we can do better but let’s face it; we couldn’t really do any worse.
