It seems Lorraine is very popular on here, but from what I've read, in the next few weeks she will be a highly controversial character.

She is going to inform SAS of Philip and Kate's relationship. On the seaside task, she is too drunk to even turn up for the task (and I suspect she will be fired that week.)

All the info is online, but I think she will show her true colours soon...

I don't really understand why she's so popular. She is there as a saleswoman, the "top sales person in every company she has ever worked for" according to her bio. However, her pitch was very poor in the fitness task, and this week she seemed rubbish at selling the soap. As Debra said, she did work hard, which is good, but she doesn't seem very talented within her forte, and I've not noticed her being especially nice to other people, either.

I don't find her that memorable.

I suspect that she is selling in a completely different manner when she is in her normal job.

Despite people lumping all salespeople together there is considerable difference between cold selling and technical selling.

I could never in a million years cold sell - I would find approaching people a gross intrusion, but I have sold complex technical systems.

Then again, I would never put myself forward for any task where cold selling was even a possibility.

I have read that she shows a nasty side soon. She is very stupid to get drunk while doing a task.

Am I the only one who can't wait to see Lorraine drunk? It sounds quite funny.

I know it's evil, but I can't wait either. So far I have found her highly forgettable.

God this is such a farce. Hidden relationships being exposed, getting drunk during tasks, etc. - it's like the EastEnders writers have taken over.

I wonder if Stacey's going to burst into the boardroom next week to tell Siralan's she's pregnant with his baby. DUN, DUN, DUN-DUN DUNDUNDUNDUN

what it shows is the total lack of professionalism on show

they are treating it like it's big brother rather than a job interview and why wouldn't they? the most famous apprentice people are actually those who didn't win (Saira and the Badge... oh and the vile Katie to a lesser extent)

What some people forget is that it is an entertainment show, so it should be just that, entertaining. It is nothing like how it was at the start but the show has consistently gained viewers which must mean something.

Yeah, I agree. The focus has very much moved to fame rather than business success. I presume the reason the winners aren't heard of as much is down to the fact they are achieving success in their jobs and the business world. I think Surallen can tell who is fame hungry, he sussed Katie Hopkins. Read Michelle wrong though.

People also forget how back-stabbing and immature people can be in real life. No one here can honestly say they've never known anyone to come into work with a hangover or had someone gossip about their fellow colleagues. Come now people

She sounds a bit like Omarosa from the first series of the Apprentice in the US. She famously fouled up one task by insisting on having a long lunch in the middle of it and in another managed to lose Jessica Simpson (the singer).

She was hilariously mad:

true, except i think if anyone in real life went on a television show where they are being tested on their professionalism and conduct, whilst being surrounded by cameras 24-7 and being watched by millions, i doubt they would be stupid enough to come in with a hangover. well looks like lorraine will be the exception to that rule!

Has anyone else noticed how she seems to feel the need to flirt between accents week-in-week out? Last week she spoke in an entirely Irish accent for the duration of the show. This week not a sniff of it, going for the neutral/London accent. It's not that she's got a mixed accent. She genuinely seems to just switch them on and off
