Watchimg in delay, but I've a question: how were they having the product in the adverts when the bottle label was (apparently) designed after the advert was filmed

SkyOfficer · 16/03/2025 10:59

Where do they find the graphic designers from and why are they using software that looks like clip art?

I always wonder why the graphic designers are so shit. The bangin hot sauce label was dire

I got an A in Drama….fuck me

She really is holding onto that qualification isn’t she

These are very short conversations on the threads. Not many comments at all

at least I was awake though this episode not like last week

i just kept hearing suralan saying ‘where’s the bloody product'

WatchOutMissMarpleIsAbout · 20/03/2025 23:07

Right so
called it with dh
Mia is decent
Sugar likes Deano I reckon

Think he likes Anisa (?) business plan something he said but I can’t remember now.

let’s see what happens with Amber Rose next week

is it 12 episodes total and I think this was no 8. So interviews soon 👏

Historically, there's always been one person who unexpectedly turns out to be a complete natural at the shopping channel task - last time, it was that dentist selling a neck pillow; he was on about the importance of jaw muscles and they flew off the shelves. Wondering if that will hold true for this cohort.

I give you James Max and the wolf coat. Epic tv.

murasaki · 20/03/2025 23:32

Amber Rose's eyeballs scare me, and the more stressed she gets, the more I think she's going to go the full Beetlejuice.

PlumpHobbit · 20/03/2025 23:35

They're all abysmal aren't they?

Amber Rose has a face like a slapped arse

Emma's gormless expression was annoying me

Woman in purple should have gone too "i have my reasons" obviously has a good business plan, its her fault they didn't have the stupid sauce to use in the advert! And she's in the food business so surely could have made the damn thing come out the bottle at least!

Oh God next week the shopping channel task, love that one 😂

PlumpHobbit · 21/03/2025 00:09

Reading back through the threads didn't realise about Kier and AR - she was freely available to fire tonight but he didn't, how is that fair, especially as she was pm

Says it all about the type of contestant they're getting now that he's desperate to go on bloody love island 🙄

For all that banging on about the drama GCSE - both the ad and acting in it, were crap...

Can we just have no winner none of them stand out. The interviewers will destroy them

Maybe that wasn't the reason he got fired after all?

Everlore · 21/03/2025 08:58

I haven't watched last night's episode yet as I fell asleep a few minutes in, not a comment on the quality of the show just a side effect of having a ten week-old who had finally fallen asleep for a few hours!
Anyway, slightly off topic, but I just wanted to congratulate posters on the splendid Apprentice themed user names, articsaviour and i lovemytissues in particular bringing back happy memories of classic TA moments from the past!
I also thought it was scandalous that Dean wasn't fired, he's got none of the charm or enthusiasm of Thomas Skinner who was one of my favourites, Dean is just a basic old-fashioned sexist bloke.

sovielverloren · 21/03/2025 10:26

I don't watch You're Fired generally, but did last night as was waiting up for OH. The awards reel at the start really showed up the quality (and I use the word lightly!) of the previous task outputs, which I think is likely because of the time given and the ludicrous split team in two before there is a clear brand/style/idea thing.

Piggywaspushed · 21/03/2025 17:18

However will they manage on the Shopping Channel without Malika's acting talents??

With any luck there might be someone who got a B, or maybe a C in GCSE Drama.

Did anyone see the Amal Rajan interview with Suralan last night? He said it's very confidential (!) but he has signed up for three more series . He was also asked what he thought about people who obviously went on there hoping for a social media career. He replied that he can spot them from the start, flicking their hair and doing their lipstick, but they are part of the entertainment package and they never get the investment anyway.

Interesting. Next year will be series 20 - I was wondering whether that might be the last, but seemingly not. I have a feeling that there might be a shake up in the formula next year.

I wonder what kind of shake-up they could do???

TitsInAbsentia · 22/03/2025 00:10

It's that time again then!

c

17 years ago...how? Interesting both have gone on to have success since the apprentice, can't say that of too many in the last few years.

I might actually have to go back and what that year all over again!

CurlewKate · 22/03/2025 07:06

I thought Sugar’s comments on Brexit were very interesting.

billysboy · 22/03/2025 07:52

NorthernGirl1981 · 21/03/2025 20:27

I could think of a few
1 . ban the word passionate
2.stop the farce of the 4am call and the cars are outside in 20 mins ( even tho you won’t leave for 2 hours )
3.no food prep
4.allow contestants to say what they think when they have been fired rather than the standard “ thank you for the opportunity “

more like “ well you can stick ur job “

IHeartMyTissues · 22/03/2025 07:57

The stats (from Wikipedia) of the remaining candidates make interesting reading. Dean is doing well, and so is Amber Rose. Anisa isn't looking great, I think Suralan must really want a piece of her business to be keeping her in.

Brilliantly funny and both candidates came across as so genuine and normal. I'd forgotten how good this programme used to be.

workstealssleep · 22/03/2025 11:21

Melica didn't really seem to get along with many of others. There didn't seem to be much to say for her best bits in the You're Fired programme.
