Now the final decision is made...who were your best and worst Apprentice candidates?

[wessexgirl]

I liked Alex the best (not a shallow looks-based analysis at all, oh no!).

I very much disliked red-haired Jenny.

Oof, 'responsive' not 'respondent'.

.

Best of the bunch - hard to say - the worst - most of them!

What had happened to Claire's hair on your hired last night!!! awful mess

best: lucinda and raef (both intelligent, confident and with style)
worst: alex and michael.

cupsoftea - agree on the hair, it was awful!

Toss up between the 2 jennies on who was worst, although there was a huge choice this year

I thought claire would win, didn't rate Lee much and agree with pointydog that he can't speak

funny how that dark haired Jenny was chosen last, not a greatly loved housemate then!

Best - Lucinda and Raef, but also liked Simon, and thought Lee and Sara were OK.

Worst - the Jennies, although also disliked Helene, and thought Kevin was laughable. Also can't see what anyone sees in Alex - I don't even think he's good looking.

Claire I didn't particularly like, but she did improve and learn stuff.

I really liked Lucinda. Agree that Irish Jennifer was a total cow, but didn't much like Alex either.

I LOVED the colour of Red-head Jennies hair.

Simon was also lovely.

Loved Lucinda and really laughed when she mentioned that Helene should have got stuck into task rather than stood over her eating chocolate and drinking tea - DH and I had said that for weeks - Can't understand why the miserable cow got through to the final at all.

I think Claire should have won over Lee though.

Hated cold faced Jennifer - when she was picked last last night I laughed and laughed - oooohhhh no one likes you cold fish girl!

Lee was my man and not cos I fancied him (not my type at all...all the blokes were too metrosexual for me...and the army guy was just a nice bloke, but not sexy). I just watched him and thought, this is his big chance...he really wants this. He's so positive, tried so hard, and yet still managed to stay on the good side of most people.

I liked Claire, but wanted Lee to win so much that I almost cried when he did. And then I felt sorry for Claire.

Alex was o.k. but he was a bit childish. And too good looking in my books. I like my men to look like they don't spend hours in front of the mirror.

Raif was good though....but I just thought he was good.

Least fave? Lucinda was awful when she wasn't in charge. Could never have been an apprentice cos she couldn't work WITH people. In charge of people? Yes...collaborating? No... She's her own woman in the way she dresses, works, everything. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but does not an apprentice make!

Sorry....got carried away a bit. I LURVE this programme.

Oh...and the rest of the women were generally cyap!

I liked RAEF

Wouldn't give Lee a job cleaning the loos never mind anything else. Just don't get the Cult of Lee.

Favourite was Raef and least fave was The Soph.

Lee was so mean to Lucinda the Zonda week. Alex also stabbed Lucinda in the back.

Boys just as treacherous and bitchy. Except it's not bitchy from the boys. It's passion and determination then.

I thought Helene and Lucinda are probably a lot better off staying with ther current companies! Their bosses clearly aren't a sexist.

Alex will end up on Celebrity Love Island.

I thought Simon was lovely and didn't deserve to go so early

I liked Raef and Lucinda (and I am the world's biggest inverted snob !)

Would have been happy with either Lee or Claire winning. I think Lee wanted it more but I think Claire probably deserved it.

Has anyone else heard that Lee left the job after a couple of months ??

I liked lucinda the best...Lee made my skin crawl 'tahs wha i'm talking about!'

I liked Simon, Lucinda, Raef and, of the four finalists, Lee, best.
I thought Alex was vile - in repose his face had a calculating, twisted petulance that looked really off-beam. Horrible creature. Jennifer and Jenny were also both very unpleasant creatures. I thought Klurr was mainly not very bright and self-aware, rather than deliberately nasty. The Jennies were both intelligent women with unpleasant personalities.

I liked Simon best, followed by Raef and Claire.

Least liked Alex. Definitely not good-looking imo. Didn't like Lucinda either and don't understand why she was so popular.

I liked Alex
then Lee
then Claire, who grew on me
then, hmm, erm, none of them.

Agree completely with Marina about Alex. A sly back-stabber as well. Went off Lucinda after last night's programme "let it go, love, let it go"

for me, Simon and Raef most likeable (manners count alot for me). Lucinda was the best of the girls, but was alienated unfortunately.

Worst were Alex, Jenny, Jennifer, Helene and the twat fired in 1st prog, a complete snob.

But overall Lee was one of the most positive team players, a good leader and a permanently enthusiastic personality. These things are of great commercial value.

Don't understand you Lucinda fans, she was such a moaner and hopeless on several occasions, she also bleated about unfairness rather than just bloody getting on with something practical.

Hopeless imo as an employee. She's made to work for herself.

And not knowing the names of the cars just sucked. Why does everyone say how clever she is?

How can you get on in business with such an earth-shatteringly patronising smile? I bet it's the same look one of her aged parents has!!!!! General and Lady Snoothwaringly of Hants!

I loooveeedd Raef.... he was brilliant.

I reckon Claire may have got a job with one of Sralans cronies that doen the interviewing but this really was last chance for Lee.

if i could have employed any of them, it would be claire

I have a soft spot for those gobby sales women (as long as they are working FOR me, working for THEM would be hideous I would imagine)
