    Sharon ahead of Lohit is just wrong :(

    Series 4, WINNER

    Top ranking: 30
    Bottom ranking: 85


    Average ranking: 63.0

    "That's what I'm talking about!"

    So, Lee is the lowest ranked winner, and that doesn't really surprise me to be frank.

    Top ranking: 18
    Bottom ranking: 136


    Average ranking: 59.8

    Crazy Jo was a very emotional character, breaking down to tears minutes after laughing hysterically! She was brought into the boardroom every week her team lost, and SIr Alan saved her from the firing line three teams.

    Woah, must confess I expected to see Stella, Michelle and maybe Simon before Lee, so that's pretty surprising for me. Wonder when Stella will turn up.
    #55: Jade Nash
    Top Ranking: 12

    :( I knew it. But since I know both Tom and Sherlock didn't like Jade, I never thought she was going to be high. I top ranked her of course. <3 Oh well, h8rs gonna h8.
    #53: Tre Azam
    Bottom ranking: 125

    Delighted to see Tre this low. I bottom ranked him and he is for me the most overrated Apprentice candidate of all time. It still bewilders me to this day how he survived his second PMship.
    #51: Luisa Zissman
    Bottom ranking: 120

    Considering Luisa is quite mixed, I thought we'd have to wait a bit longer, but I guess people didn't like her in general. I bottom ranked her, which was surprising; I thought someone would dislike her more than me.

    I didn't mind Jade that much - I had her at #52. I actually like her personality - I just don't particularly rate her as a candidate and I feel Gabrielle was the best woman that year. Although I admit Jade was good creatively... but she was a terrible manager in Week 7.

    Sharon clashed with many of the male candidates - Mani, Syed, Paul to name a few.

    I ended up liking Sharon much more when rewatching series 2. Then again anyone battling against people like Paul and Syed is going to win points from me.

    Series 5, 11th place, fired Week 11

    Top ranking: 27

    Average ranking: 62.1

    Kimberly was the PM of the team who came up with PANTSMAN!

    I gave Kimberly her lowest rank. Not really that low though.
    I just didn't like how weak she came off up against Philip's Pantsman idea and Lorraine's misery. She didn't seem to have much of an edge about her, too nicey-nice.
    #53: Tre Azam
    Series 3, 4th place, fired Week 11

    Top ranking: 22

    Average ranking: 59.6

    Tre is probably one of the most memorable characters from Series 3 - "you're nothing to me!"

    I would have expected him to get a higher top rank than 22. he's the sort you'd expect to have a couple of hardcore fans.

    She could draw a very good penguin :D

    Honestly, the only recollection I have of her.



    As for winners, not surprised that Lee is the first one to show up on the list. Think that on average the runners-up are more popular then the actual winners.

    My guess for the placement of the other winners (not on the actual list, but in terms of which one will show up first):

    8. Simon
    7. Michelle
    6. Stella
    5. Tim
    4. Tom
    3. Ricky
    2. Leah
    1. Yasmina

    (4 out those 8 winners are in my personal top 20, by the way)

    Be honest, you were the one who put her at 94, weren't you? ;)

    Paula was a very pleasant team, but was the PM on the sandalwood fiasco, which led to her firing.

    Car salesman Adam was a poor leader on two occasions and was gganged up on by his team mates such as Paul, Katie, Kristina and Natalie. He survived the baordroom three times.
