Perhaps whilst there, they can get some of that famous Finnish education because they sure as hell need some.

Wrong decision Suralan.

SmilingButClueless · 13/11/2019 21:57

Now want Marianne to go.

PurpleDaisies · 13/11/2019 21:57

Don’t agree with that choice.

SmilingButClueless · 13/11/2019 21:58

Should have been at least a double firing.

Screamqueenz · 13/11/2019 21:58

RM is a nasty little poo

Wizzbangpop · 13/11/2019 21:59

That was a slinky way to get out of doing pm there rm "it depends if you vote for me " Hmm

Midgey91 · 13/11/2019 21:59

Right who is applying for 2020 Grin

SmilingButClueless · 13/11/2019 22:00

I’m about 20 years too old looking at this lot

mummyofcutetwo · 13/11/2019 22:00

Love the way RM has planted the seed that people don’t have to vote for him to be PM 😁

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 13/11/2019 22:00

That was wrong but I guess they need to keep a creepy little hate figure and a pushy woman. I don’t like either of them.

Doesn't this mean every candidate of non white ethnicity has been fired? I'm not normally once to call that sort of stuff out but ...

Userwhatevernumber · 13/11/2019 22:06

I just came on to say the same thing Nigesfakewalkingstick

As someone who is non-white/ non English I am quite sensitive to that sort of thing and yes, so far, there has not been a white candidate fired 😡

dillite · 13/11/2019 22:06

Oh great, there are dressing gowns on BBC2. And some very embarrassed looking half-dressed men.

I think it's ridiculous having to advertise a country without being allowed to do some research about it first and just by being taken to a single filming location (a fucking sauna!) and then expecting them to come up with a massive variety.

I would have focused on the food and the forests- and that you can forage there freely. I don't really know what else is Finland famous for?

DH just pointed out that the names of the candidates fired so far make for interesting reading.

GeordieTerf · 13/11/2019 22:06

I would see being fired as a compliment given the abilities of those still there.

What about Rhiyonn? A couple of weeks ago?

Yes 1 person out of 6 isn't great stats I agree

Userwhatevernumber · 13/11/2019 22:18

Ryionn Fasard is mixed with Arabic heritage.

Userwhatevernumber · 13/11/2019 22:19

Sorry I meant Riyonn

Screamqueenz · 13/11/2019 22:20

I had no idea, that's actually made me feel very uncomfortable.

NigesFakeWalkingStick · 13/11/2019 22:21

1 in 6 is pretty poor, particularly when someone like Iesha was fired last week for allegedly doing nothing (same as Pamela this week) but had brought home one of the biggest wins in Apprentice history.

Wizzbangpop · 13/11/2019 22:28

Sorry I stand corrected

dillite · 13/11/2019 22:30

Has a minority candidate ever made it into the finals?

OP posts:
SmilingButClueless · 13/11/2019 22:32

That makes me feel uncomfortable as well. Other than Iasha, I’m not sure anyone was fired completely unfairly, but there have certainly been white candidates brought back into the boardroom who deserved to have been fired and weren’t.

Userwhatevernumber · 13/11/2019 22:32

Yes I believe a black man won the first series

SmilingButClueless · 13/11/2019 22:34

@dillite A few, I think. Certainly at least one winner (Tim Campbell)
