Fucks sake. What pisses me off about this show is that the boy team's Box Business would not last longer than a week. They cheaped out so badly.

Yeah it’s bullshit because judging the winner purely on profit for a task like that means you can take the piss massively. There should be client feedback that works as a handicap.

No refund on that made no sense, but I suppose they wanted to make out of control costs a bigger issue.

Women’s football is absolutely loving awful with an incredibly limited market to be fair to that one fella

Dunno why you have to pretend otherwise. Remember when the USA international team got beat by a bunch of 14 year old school boys lol.

Elisabeth is absolutely loving awful and makes me mad to even listen to. I hate this show.

It's silly that on both tasks like this (so this and the hotel) the people who have won have been the ones who did the shittiest job at purchasing stuff.

It also felt like what they were expected to do isn't to go to the client and say "So how much will you pay us" but "Okay, what corners do you want us to cut so you can only spend £2500?" which would have been much more honest.

Kartik from last year posted on Twitter that he was mad about who won. One of the guys from the show this year replied to him and said their group was so happy that they wanted to leave them a tip. I guess we got all the "atmosphere" cut and never got to see what it was actually like.

'Can I have this price?'
'Yes.'
'Ok can I have a lower price?'

e: Promising to hold a product for someone then telling someone else they can race for it? Don't go to this Amstrad dealer guys. Unethical behaviour.

Lol I can't believe the Amstrad thing. Both dealers seem ridiculous. There's definitely going to be a fight about the Amstrad in the boardroom, whoever loses.

Also are those Jewish pastries as tasty as they look?

And I can't believe they're trying to buy a Spurs scarf off someone's mate?

Elisabeth is my favourite. She's the perfect awful Apprentice candidate. I hope she lasts a while longer. This series' entertainment value is high IMO.

Any loving sports shop. Any loving tourist shite shop. And you go to some lad's house to buy a spurs scarf for at least 6x what it should cost.
