Can we summon the energy to Apprentice? Will it improve on last week's tedium?

Anyone in?

Artex - which pound shops sell the bugs?

Tee - just stay and chat :) It's more fun than actually watching!

Get the tan... then get some tan remover wipes and exfoliating scrub.

give me a job EmperorSugar

Why is that a problem? Just buy what they have and find something else to buy...hot water bottles?!?!

Gobby cow isn't going to help!

They are so going to be in bother for not buying the bugs

Who is Thomas? Where did he come from? baffled

Gabrielle - gah.

'Bronze Ambition'!!!

Where has Thomas been? He's quite cute though. Bet Boggle hates him.

Wait...who is Thomas?!?

Why aren't they showing Boggle and Ricky selling the fake tan? If it's so easy?

Yes, Ricky and Boggle - you are effectively relegated to Yodelmen.

They have pitches?!?!

If he says strategy one more time...

And why does it always take two of them? It's like going to the loo in Reception class.

Tom just seems to have appeared.

Azhar. The strategy is to buy stuff and sell it. That's it. You're not Don Draper, love.

As the best sales people they didn't seem to do that well at the market.

Tom was good in the vintage tat task, remember? He had taste and did nice arrangements of old cameras.

Sometimes in life you make a tit of yourself...

I love the way Kimberleh's strategy is to do half the victim's customer's arm, thus forcing them to buy the bottle so as not to end up looking like a trucker.

But it's okay to have stock left...has she forgotten that?

Artex -thanks for that :) I'd need SatNav to find Sheffield, let alone the independant pound shop

Sue - I don't think they have enough camera crew for them to split up any more than pairs
