Haha yes I forgot about that one I think the series with Syed in had some funny moment too

the best was the QVC 'wolf jacket' episode - saw it again recently on youtube and laughed just as hard the second time round

I honestly thought that was the worst episode of the entire series thus far. The only interesting things were Debra yelling at Nick, Ben falling to pieces in the boardroom, and James insulting Ben at the end.

The task itself was a complete wash-out. Boring, confusing, and sloppily edited.

Honestly, I've liked this series a lot so far (far more than series 2, or series 4, which people seem to be insanely over-rating in retrospect - the last few tasks and boardrooms were deadly) but this was not a good episode at all.

I'm so glad someone else agrees.

Even the boardroom went on much too long.

Some people may find it entertaining seeing a bunch of vacuous idiots yelling at each other but I find it rapidly palls.

Nick was incredibly annoying and a lot what Sralan and Margaret came out with seemed either scripted or rehearsed.

No, this week's was possibly their worst performance by far for me, marring the whole thing.

Best this series, definitely.

There have been much better episodes in other series, and involved people like Syed, (100 chicken for 100 pizzas, for example), Katie, Tre, Raef, Jenny (bribery and corruption) Celerier, to name just a few.

There just aren't as many personalities in this one, but there's still time...

+1

There's a woman I occasionally see in town wearing the Wolf in the moonlight fleece and it always takes me back to James and Saira's wonderful performances - best bit ever on The Apprentice.

Yes, I remember nearly peeing myself laughing at that.

You're probably right.

France has been the best episode ever.

Because series 3 was so strong, I find myself saying that virtually every episode from no. 3/4 up to (but not including) the last was better than any in series 5...but for example, episode 9 would not have been good if episodes 3 through 8 had been bad - it's kind of a cumulative thing.

Series 4 didn't have that, it was a bit volatile, but Marakesh stood out along with Sophocles' firing towards the climax

Series 1 and 2 were on a different (generally more proffesional) level and thus I can't really compare!
