The Apprentice 2026 - starts tonight - first stop Hong Kong!

[IHeartMyTissues]

Anyone else looking forward to the new series?

First task is the classic buying task, but it's taking place in Hong Kong.

There's also a new companion show - 'Unfinished Business' - let's hope it's a return to form after several years of the 'All About Tom Allen' show 😆

Maybe there’s no treat this time because they got tired of rewarding a teams for winning by being, for the best part, marginally less incompetent than the losing team.

I read the treats were stopped due to BBC budget cuts. To be fair some of them looked awful. I would have rather had a cup of tea in the cafe

Walk like an Egyptian ...

Um, midrange and luxury are not the same.

And Karishma, profit is not just about getting it cheap. The client has to like it...

I don't think I've even seen this bloke before

There's a massive gap in price expectations for both teams.

Oh dear, splitting the food between two. Bad plan.

I was thinking that. Also where do you have to work to get an away day to Egypt? I occasionally get to go to the local zoo

keiran, looks like an extra on Death on the Nile with that hat & linen suit

A spivvy extra who you think might be the villain but isn't important enough.

Yes exactly!

I would quite enjoy the pottery.

The food will obviously be a disaster.

They won't know what they're doing with the pottery at all.

Why did that giphshow up in my post? I can't even see it to delete it.

If the food comes out in 6 bowls, it will be funny.

The clients really don't want to hear about shit disposal.

The boat trip is falling flat.

no idea! But a 6-7 mouse made me chuckle

They're not going to fish the parsley out of the bin, are they?

The best tour guide was that chap from a couple of years ago who’s name I’ve forgotten but liked canons or something

Wash it and no one will ever know

Connor is doing a good job.

Yes Conor is going down really well

Personally I never think parsley adds anything worthwhile.

Me too, fine to leave it out, but not fine to replace it with a full hard core spice rack!

Raw potatoes!

Tbh it’s ridiculous to expect them to be able to cook to a high standard.
