Upselling Cabbage in the Loser's Caff - The Apprentice Thread Two

[ArticSaviour]

Just to bookmark for next week...

With Mia there were a few times when she spoke to camera and she sounded arrogant and then did her little smirk to confirm it

obviously arrogance is quite a common trait on that show but as the series progressed I thought it came out more in her. I think she thought she was safe based on prior tasks

In a way, Jordan's team were quite clever with their 'breaking free of gender norms' theme in that none of the experts were going to say "but men don't usually wear those kinds of clothes" and they probably felt obliged to buy something to show how cool they were. All that anyone felt able to criticise was the impracticality of the parachute skirt.

Did anyone see them on you’re fired?

No I don’t watch it. I stopped watching it years ago when Dara stopped. I loved him.

No, I used to be an avid You're Fired watcher, but Tom Allen completely ruined it by making it all about himself.

Yeah I don’t watch it either - was just wondering how Mia came across

Exactly how I feel! I tried but no not for me.

As with all contestants, she came across better than portrayed in main programme.

I thought she was one of the few contestants who didn’t come across that badly so wondered if it might be the reverse!!!

I'll be watching it later (was too tired last night).
However, to avoid divorce, I've got to stop myself saying "That's something that really caught my eye" à la Tom Allen every time I notice something.

I think she thought she was safe based on prior tasks

Definitely agree on this. It's the first time I've seen someone actually rock back in their seat when they were fired - it was like Suralan had physically struck her.

In a way, Jordan's team were quite clever with their 'breaking free of gender norms' theme in that none of the experts were going to say "but men don't usually wear those kinds of clothes" and they probably felt obliged to buy something to show how cool they were.

Also very much agree with this.
And I think Mia is one of the very few of the candidates bright enough to work that out too and perhaps was relying on it.

During the process, she came across as her way or the highway. Didn't let anyone else have their ideas, and got quite cocky if people disagreed with her. Not a fan.

Yes cocky is the word

that week when Liam was PM and she kept going on about how she would help him because she’s so experienced

but at least she was competent. Unlike ‘can’t set a table’ melica for eg

I wish they'd realise that they're a team and if they work together to win they're all safe. Instead there's so much infighting. As PM Jordan could have easily taken liam with him to design the clothes and sent Mia with Anisa.

They also all apart from maybe Dean take themselves so seriously, how they didn't all laugh when they saw that damn skirt.

Glad Mia didn’t make it. Very arrogant woman.

I agree @Krampers

Or slightly competent-to look at it from another viewpoint…..

I did like Liam but his accent was grating.

not sure why Jordan is still in it tbh

Wow, didn’t even realise this was the same person. Mia

How is that Mia @Eva98?

wow - she’s a body builder. Who knew!!

She wants to be on Gladiators!

Yes totally different

This is from her instagram. She has been in body builder competitions

Wow! Of all the contestants I would have said Mia was the least likely to be a builder. She always looked like she was going to burst into tears for a start

Wow, thanks @Eva98- would never have thought of her as a bodybuilder!
