The American chap isn't doing himself many favours is he!

I'm cringing so bad I've got a cushion to hide. Just how?!?!

He'd done his research! The poor woman with a cold and verbal diarrhoea..

I like the older redundant bloke. He's calm in a crisis.

The older guy has it in the bag I think. The others not so much.

That woman who couldn't stop talking just sold herself well! I like the older bloke too, he's got a nice way about him.

So chuffed for the older guy.

Working mums, particularly those returning to the job market, came out well.

I see they gave the Wickham House job to the posh skinny one rather than the woman who interviewed really well Angry

So painful to watch. I bet I cringed more than you though, the 'American chap' is my XH Blush

Made me laugh when the woman interviewing said 'no, just no' after interviewing him, she's a better judge of character than I was!

Loved that! I had a job interview today (and got the job), at least I knew what not to say (I did know, but still...). Shock at Ametican man being your ex-H Madame - he was a one!

Sorry if I've offended you Madame. Did he come across as himself in his interview?

Wow, American bloke is your ex madame!? Was he just nervous? He really didn't interview well.

I wanted to tell the one with verbal diarrhea to shut the hell up.

I would have hired the one who's dream job it was. She would have been better because of the amount that of passion she had.

The yacht woman was very irritating. She seemed almost bored!

Wouldn't have been able to work out that percentage though. I can never remember how to do it, I Google a website if I need it now, type it in and it tells me the answer. I can do easy ones but not 23% of 57!

Really cruel, manipulative programme and was genuinely despairing when the non-posh, non-skinny woman failed to secure the wedding planner role especially as it will be mostly non-Posh, non-rich women who will be getting themselves into mahoosive debt to have weddings at their big house/'but it's our family pile' venues. I know it will have been edited in a certain way but NOTHING could have distorted the fact that the posh girl wrote a dull, unimaginative xmas piece when the other girl obviously grasped the fact that they were asking for a bit of blog-ready 'copy' - miserable viewing especially in the light of the new Tory era descending on us - The Boris types of this world will win EVERY TIME 😔

I haven't seen him for a long time and I did think he was very nervous but I am embarrassed to say that he did come across as I remember him. He's always been a bit of 'a one'. When he was younger (in my defence I was very young too) he was always a bit of a joker and a charmer and everybody's best mate but I think as he's got older he just comes across as a bit creepy. My marriage was a massive mistake, however my DS (who I raised myself without any input from his dad) is magnificent and nothing like his dad.

Is anyone watching this week? I think I'll need to turn it over. It feels too voyeuristic.

Watching.... I feel pretty uncomfortable too!

They made a big mistake at that vets, the other woman was perfect. Half a morning showing her through computer system would've done. She had plenty more valuable skills then the one they went for.

I agree! I thought the animal loving woman with the long blonde hair would have been perfect. IT skills can be taught. Don't think the ex teacher will stay.
