The Apprentice 2011: Best quotes. Week 3

The Apprentice logo


This Week Sir Alan, challenged the remaining bright eyed candidates to find 10 items for a hotel in just 9 hours.

The famous 'buying' task is always interesting and full of silly errors and displays of stupidity.

The teams were shaked up and  Zoe looked less than please to be moving teams as her eyes rolled in despair. Perhaps she saw her fate in the bottom three flash before her eyes. 
Zoe Beresford

Gavin WinstanleySusan Ma

Gavin and Susan were the respective PROJECT MANAGERS of the task, but took different stances to the challenge ahead of them.
Susan taking an organised and well polished style i.e. being good. Whilst Gavin took the lets roll with it approach i.e. I have no idea what I am doing

This weeks hiding failure!
Natasha Scribbins
Natasha

She was all over the place in the episode making mistakes with her negotiating tactics and her calling up rival hotels looking for help.
Here is someone who should have been in the firing line, a lucky escape.




This week Gavin, Zoe and Vincent faced the boardroom after a narrow loss but one which was the right outcome.

The Apprentice 2011: Week 1

Lord SugarKarren BradyNick Hewer

Series 7 of Lord Sugar's Apprentice is back on our Television screens and it is 'packing punches'

With a new prize of £250,000 to start a business with Sir Alan, the stakes are higher and there is much more to prove. 

The series already feels different, more passion and drive, however with this comes more idiots and wannabes.

Helen Louise MilliganMelody Hossaini

The two women above Helen and Melody first caught my eye as they exchanged a brief evil stare. Helen (left)  put herself up for project manager and did Melody (right) who won the role for the first week. Helen glared at Melody as she was denied the task and her ideas for the name of the team (Venture) were similarly shot down, here is some tension to watch throughout the series.



 Edna Agbarha

Similarly Edna above showed a high level of evil stares and bitchy looks throughout the program. She got my disapproval within the episode as she come across well in how she acted and worked in a team. She may soon become someone we hope to get rid of. 

Susan Ma

Although not listened to exclusively, Susan shows promise for the series.


Team Logic (the boys) was headed up by the confusing and rather odd Edward

Edward Hunter

The self-hating Accountant pushed himself up for project manager and barely made it into anyone's expectations that he was capable and a rational adult.

Unable to tell what an Orange looks like didn't help his corner. 

Complaining about being short and the youngest candidate didn't make him a favourite it seemed.

His use of short confusing phrases was noted by Sir Alan, however he was entertaining, just hopeless within the task.

Glenn Ward

Glenn (above) got a little bit red when he felt the team wasn't going far, and raged up in the kitchens amongst Orange squeezers to assert his male dominance.

Jim Eastwood

Thank god Jim was there to diffuse the situation for us.
