I honestly thought he was going to cry!

Having not seen him at all in the rest of the programme, was this Raleigh? The same guy who allegedly claims to be "ruthless, even in Monopoly".

Is that ruthless as in "if you put a hotel on Mayfair and he lands on it, he takes his game home and tells Mummy"?

Reminds me of Ben from the last big brother, very posh and a very likeable chap.

I thought he was OK. He obviously felt bullied by the project manager and it was an outpooring of bottled up frustration - and they hadn't slept all night.

Yeah, he did seem very likeable.

It was still funny when he said it though...he went so red I thought he was going explode!

Well I think he's a bit of a wet fish. Just look at his audition tape.

That was hilarious! Isn't he the graduate who hasn't yet had a job? Where's he got all his "business nouse" from, and how can he be the "best salesman around" if he's never had a job??

One of the funniest moments I've seen on the show. He reminded me of the MPs on BBC 1's Question Time attacking the opposition:

"Your tax reforms are shameful!"

He shouted at us and it's not fair !

Too juvenile for Junior Apprentice, but should fit in lovely if Lord Sugar ever does a Primary School Apprentice

I think he didn't really know how to put his frustration into words in the boardroom up until that point, knowing that saying the wrong thing can get you in trouble. But I also don't think he wanted to be seen as a quiet mouse and felt he needed to get his point across to Lord Sugar.
So it all came out in this big release of tension and anxiety lol

I found him quite likeable though, which I must be honest, it was incredibly hard to pick anyone to like out of the boys.

He may be the most naive canidate to appear on the show. With no previous business experience he's like a blank canvas waiting for Sugar to corrupt!

Raleigh (pronounced Rolly?) ticks the posh bloke box. Like most posh blokes, he comes across as being quite courteous and a little bit dim (but treat him as nice-but-dim at your peril). It probably was quite a big thing for him to come out with all that stuff and he likely sees "shameful" as being a big insult.

It'll be interesting to see how he develops.

He reminds me of one of Chris Morris' character on 'Brass Eye' - 0:48 seconds in ('Priests with Guns')

Perhaps Raleigh won't be a complete waste of space after all - at least he'll be good TV!

So beautifully melodramatic, I loved it he can be my favourite for now - since he also seemed quite nice in a room full of monsters.
