Argh no, my favourite Leprechaun has done a runner, what a shame.

was this on last night, it doesn't seem to be "in the usual place"?
*whispers* What's the 'usual place'? I'm wondering if your 'usual place' is different from my 'usual place'

when the PM offers to come back into the boardroom by themselves - they're asking for it.

In addition she was slagging Bill off behind the scenes last week and I think she was ready to walk already and they new it

excellent first episode, brutal in the board room.

It's worth noting that the "Your Fired" feed is viewable from the UK to give a taste to those who've never seen it

I've tried to watch YF ep4 but it wont stream in UK. The Behind the Scenes vid does though.

I know Yinka, she's the nicest person ever Too nice for the show.

That was her problem I think, she needed to throw Louise under the bus and didn't. There's no point in attacking Chris as he's clearly too good entertainment value (and of course male)

The artifical deadline was stupid, but it's a common enough management trick and I'm sure Bill will have used it himself - certainly didn't justify the firing

I feel the same- I have no clear favourite, every year at this point I am rooting for someone- this year , there are a few I cannot stand - mainly Maurice and the rest are just blah! Judging by the ads though it looks like Bill gets mighty cross this week! Go Bill!!!!

Eoin was my favourite, Chris and Connor stand out for me - the rest are quite bland. I think it's the switch to the dragon's den type investment rather than the invented job that causes the problem

I'm hoping they will keep Chris around to the end, otherwise I will lose all interest

Blah is the right word.

Joanne looks like she's shaping up to be a contender. Sandra's voice is driving me nuts, other than that she seems OK. Connor's just too cocky IMO and Maurice....*shudder*.

My this show is hard to track down!
Still, finally managed to 'aquire' episodes 6 & 7 - getting more interesting now
Shame my love interest has now gone - Susanne's a gorgeous girl, but sadly was never finalist material
I'm still mightily confused by what constitutes a "viral" campaign and whats a "guerilla" campaign
I think if it were me I'd just have put Chris in a Gorilla suit and got him to play the drums in the shopping centre

A guerilla campaign is one 'sprung' on the public. One good example is the T-Mobile (?) ads of a couple of years ago where crowds of people started singing in random places like train stations and airports, taking the real public by surprise.

A 'viral' can be any kind of campaign, including 'guerilla', which goes viral on the internet, meaning it gets a ton of hits by being passed person to person via email, social networking and YouTube.

Ironically I've had better luck this week - already 'aquired' and viewed episode 9
I think the trick is to 'widen your net' - remember, Google is your friend

Spoilers re episode 9:
