"Rewatch" ? Maybe you should start a thread about made up words heard on "The Apprentice" ? (Not including Melissa's little gems)
Surely rewatch is a proper word? Watch something again? Bears rewatching? I'll go check it out... Hmm. OK, I stand corrected. I always thought that was a real word....

It's one of those words only used in the coprorate world, but not to worry, you know now

Just a reminder to get your cliches in for this week's ep. Closing date for entries is as ever Wednesday at 8pm!

"My own skill-set is so right for this task..."

(Or similar.)
Sorry - doesn't get my vote. Melissa has gone now

How about:

"I don't know what you/he/she/Stuart was/were thinking".

...or even just a raised eyebrow from Nick.

I think a raised eyebrow from our Nick could be accepted!
You need to choose that or the sentence though....

(Anyone for "Feedback" this week?)

Can I de-lurk to join the gang? I have a new laptop so I can now join the "simultaneous watching and posting" multitaskers!

We haven't heard 150% for a while so I'm hopeful that someone (probably one of the embarrassingly aggressive girls) will come up with it this week

Please could I have "I am a good all rounder" or claims along similar lines this week?
Thanks

OK guys, just slightly over four hours to go. Remember, you need to have your cliches in before 8pm tonight to be eligible to play this week!

Last call: just over 90 minutes left if you want to be in for this week's episode!

I don't think to be honest there's sufficient interest in this to make it worth my while rescanning the episode for a few cliches (three or four this week I think), and even the one in the lead didn't post this week, so if that's the level of interest it becomes a little pointless continuing.

If anyone wants me to keep it going let me know, but in fairness I'd need a few more people playing, and playing regularly, to make it worthwhile. This thread has already slipped to near the end of page 2, and we're only three days after the episode....

In on the button, and the only entrant!

I'd like Lord Sugar saying "not no, yes!" when one of the candidates contradicts him. Always brings a smile to my face

Also; Trollheart- why not keep it going, but allow people to self-report, so you don't have to scan each episode twice within 24 hours? I doubt if people would cheat, and if they did, well...

"You're fired!"

Apologies for not posting. I hadn't actually realised I'd scored another point that week. To be honest this series isn't really holding my attention and this is the first time I've watched it as it's aired for a few weeks and been on the boards. Thanks for starting it though and trying!
