This is the thread for any info (or guesswork) about future episodes.

The BBC has already provided the info that the first task is making and flogging sausages.

The Birmingham Mail has
'During the series, the hopefuls will open a fashion boutique, run a bakery, flog crisps in Germany, design and market a new cleaning product, treat unsuspecting tourists to open-top bus tours around the capital, and invent a new beach product in a string of merciless missions with no second chances.'

    Was going to start one of these :D

    We can certainly rule this candidate out of winning...http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/s108/the-apprentice/news/a279620/apprentice-hopeful-on-bail-for-fraud.html

    Definetly not. Although the fraud story won't be relevant on the show beacuase it's happened way after the show was filmed. I imagine the story will give him a lot of trouble while the show is broadcast and after he's fired however. It may not lose him the job on the show but it's already lost him his current job;):

    http://www.introducertoday.co.uk/News/Story/?storyid=3513&title=%27You%27re_fired%27_%E2%80%93_words_Apprentice_candidate_has_heard_before&type=news_features

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1316429/The-Apprentice-2010-Fraudster-Christopher-Farrells-ex-boss-speaks-out.html?ito=feeds-newsxml

    I wonder if they'll mention it when he's on the YF show?

    As for spoilers, I imagine they'll be quite a lot of them on wikipedia and maybe the apprentice site itself. Remember last year when it said Maj was fired in week 3 before the episode was even shown? Unless they've learned from that cock-up, of course...;)

    They won't mention it on YF as it's yet to come to court, that's if the police and the CPS decide their case is strong enough anyway. Current status innocent until proved guilty. It will be the elephant in the room though!

    If the papers are correct (surely shum mistake..) then he doesn't seem to be in the country. I would have thought not leaving the UK would be part of bail conditions, but maybe they aren't standard. I'm sure the papers would mention it if the police were also looking for him. But there is the chance that when YF is filmed, he's not around. YF now meaning You've Flown. There's little chance the case would have been heard by then, the law is sooo slow (YBU You're Banged Up). So what are they going to do? 30mins of Dara's stand up?

    True to tabloid form however is the statement from his current wife who says 'it's all lies', etc. Also he's not the first or last ex-soldier to end up in court shortly after leaving the army (regarding the actual first conviction).

    There are/were some photos on Flickr that some snapped during filming. I saw them early this year? Some were definately the first task as there were sausages. And the one who we now know as Stella English in a butcher's straw hat.

    From what I see, Stella, Joanna, Liz, possibly Jamie (Trafford Centre) Paloma (muffins) ,Stuart, Chris and Shibby (T5) all survive the first boardroom.

    Yeah, just looked at his video, Jamie is the only one with hair that short. So at least until mid series for the Trafford Centre.

    In that second pic It looks like there's a girl in an apron (Liz?) among the boys working at the sausage stall. Does that mean AS is going to mix up the teams early, like he did in S3?

    I'm so glad that Stuart survives the first task - I'm expecting good TV from him :).

    I don't think that's Liz, looks to be wearing a backpack rather than an apron? Could be a member of the production crew perhaps. As well as camera and sound guys, there's usually several others with clip boards following around like little ducklings.

    So as a brief recap based loosely on our observations, the following appear safe after the first task:

    Stella, Melissa & Alex- seen in a mixed sex task (Pic 1, Pic 2, Pic 3)

    Chris, Shibby & Stuart (with Stella)- seen at Heathrow in a later task (Pic 4)

    Jamie & Liz (with Stella)- Seen at Trafford Centre in a later task (Pic 5, Pic 6)

    Paloma- selling cakes, but not sausages (Pic 7)

    So that leaves:

    Christopher
    Dan
    Joanna
    Joy
    Laura
    Raleigh
    Sandeesh

    … as the candidates for first firing!

    No Joana is still there by the Trafford Centre boutique task

    I think filming started on the 25th Sept 2009. Based on twitpix dating the first tasks could be in this order
    1 Sausages 25th Sept
    2 Open top bus tours 28th Sept
    3 Muffins 3rd Oct
    4 Something connected to cycling/beach? 8th Oct
    5 Fashion Boutique 10th Oct
    6 Cleaning product?
    7 Crisps in Germany?
    8
    9
    10
    11 Interviews
    12 Final

    Feels a bit late for the cleaning product, and a bit early for the open a shop, but there's several Trafford pics
    BB your pics 1,2 &3 are dated the same as Paloma selling muffins.

    Filming seems to be Mon-Sat inclusive and tasks are 1 or 2 day, plus 1 day boardroom/treat.

    You might need to shift them down a step after task 1, as the Radio Times web site says this about Task 2:
    Beach Accessory
    An early-morning call summons the candidates to Heathrow airport, but any thoughts of a glamorous trip abroad are soon dashed when Lord Sugar sets the task of creating a brand-new beach accessory. The teams must also design an eye-catching poster to promote their product, before pitching their innovation to three big retailers.

    Cheers, thought Heathrow T5 trying to grap unsuspecting tourists to London. So they are doing 'market research' there? Or what passes for it. Keeping other tasks in the same order for now.
    Task2 28th get ideas/design 29th shoot advert 30th pitch 1st BR/treat 2nd set up bakery 3rd sell on street. Can't really see how they can get another task in between. The cycle show thing might not be a task afterall? Cleaning & Bus could be later if tasks like in S4

    Added the possible sizes of the teams

    1 Sausages 25th Sept 8/8
    2 Beach accessory 28th Sept 7/8
    3 Muffins 3rd Oct 7/7
    4 Something connected to cycling 8th Oct 6/7
    5 Fashion Boutique 10th Oct 6/6
    6 Cleaning product? 5/6
    7 Crisps in Germany? 5/5
    8 Open top bus tours? 4/5
    9 4/4
    10 3/4
    11 Interviews 6 ?
    12 Final 2 ?

    Of all the clips of upcoming things to happen I've seen, I've never seen Raleigh in any of them.
    Doesn't look too good for him. A shame because he seems unintentionally funny, plus I feel like he really NEEDS this opportunity more than any other candidate. He doesn't seem to have anything else to fall-back on.

    Or maybe the editors are smart and purposely leaving out certain candidates in the future clips who do well in the series, maybe even the winner, so that people will be shocked when they make it so far. Not that I think Raleigh is the winner though, he seems very naive, which is certainly not the quality that Lord Sugar will want in his winner. ;)
    I can really see Raleigh being fired about week 3 though. Shame.

    I don't think he really NEEDS it as such, with that accent etc people usually do well enough. And here's THE SPOILER, he has!
    BelligerentBoss found him listed on a troops charity webside, Tickets for Troops (within hours of his name going up!) He's not a director, but operations manager (which sounds like running it). More worthwhile than banking or working for Sugar. I did see in the online edition of his local paper that his elder brother is an officer who got seriously wounded in Afganistan shortly after TA filming had ended. Can't find the link, but a national picked it up
    http://www.dailystar.co.uk/posts/view/156575/The-Apprentice-Raleigh-Addington-helps-heroes/



    Dunno anymore though as to which task goes wrong for him.

    We never know what goes on in the Apprentice house. Perhaps Raleigh let himself be talked in getting a make over from Melissa or Stuart (there being no end to his talents)
