On the apprentice website there is a video of Lee being interviewed. When asked "why should you be Sir Alan's next apprentice? In his answer he had spelled tomorrow, fulfil, ambition, recognised, and whom wrong. The answer is roughly two sentences long.
This is the next apprentice? Watch the video, you'll fall over laughing.
:D:p:D

I firmly believe Lee will win and he's a nice guy but all he does when he makes a mistake is go "I'm disappointed with myself" and it's all forgiven
I personally would not employ him after that.
Simon was described as an "underachiever" by the interviewers last year but he won. Sometimes it's hard to work out how SAS' brain works!
He can't spell, he swears constantly, he has a bad temper and he can't pitch.
He's utterly useless.
Simon wasn't an underachiever. Simon was in Mensa, he went to Oxford University.
Yeah but they said he had all that yet he still hadn't put that to use in terms of employment.
And because he does pterodactyl impressions and the fact he can't spell pterodactyl is by the by.
Urgh. Can't stand him - there are better candidates. I think Claire would be the best apprentice.
I am not sure if Nick is good at spelling but he talks a good talk
If the role is regarding the suppositions on here, I would suggest he probably doesn't have the right (hate to use the term but what the hell) portfolio of skills!!
Can he spell "wan*er"? Does it matter? Apparently not. It seems it is now safe to leave Britain's business potential in the hands of someone who can't spell accent. I wouldn't regard the ability to spell as paramount in a business employee but I would be a little suspicious of someone who couldn't spell such a basic word as accent.
I think Lee is a gutsy, hard working nice individual, a rough diamond that needs polishing, perfect apprentice material
Did he really say "grammical errors" or was it just his thick accent?
Can anyone tell me what is so shaming about having a Milkman for a father? His tearful confession was dreadful.
There's nothing shameful about having a milkman for a father and I'm quite sure Lee never intended to imply there was.
All he was saying was that his family did not have a lot of money. He may have felt that this contributed to the stresses that split his parents up. He may have felt this made him stand out from other children.
He evidently believes that he should do his best to make sure he can give his children what he didn't have which is a fairly common sentiment even if the more thoughtful will realise that a stable, loving environement with parents that have plenty of time for them is far more important to most children than money (no matter what the ungrateful little bas**rds may think
Sorry but the teary eyes, the looking off into the distance, the hesitations suggested otherwise. I'm all for bettering oneself through hard work but I would have had more respect for him if he had simply said "my parents worked hard to provide for us and that was a valuable lesson". It came across as disrespectful to his parents really.
No I still think he was more upset with having a father who was a milkman rather than the split.
I agree money does not equal happiness. Giving your children everything leaves them with very little to strive for themselves.
I agree.
Of course. So that we can write about how nice the whether is today, and inquire weather people think Lee is good apprentice material. We can place an order for office stationary, and put up a sign prohibiting stationery vehicles at the entrance to the car park.
And so on...
Haha - yep spellcheck will only help you so much...that is why it is better to actually pay attention at school.
I have a spelling chequer,
It came with my pea sea,
It plane Lee marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye cannot sea.
When eye strike a quay, right a word,
I weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar wright
It shows me strait aweigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
I nose bee fore two late
And eye can put the error rite
Its rarely, rarely grate.
I've run this poem threw it
I'm shore your pleased two no,
Its letter perfect in it's weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.
