Lol....
Well, I must be honest, and say that every time she opened her big gob, Melissa had me in stitches!.
The idea that this silly woman is in a high managerial position fills me with an awful dread, that the top echelons of many companies have people of her "calibre" filling their ranks..

And you have got the whole idea of the Apprentice in one paragraph!....
But I think "car crash" is an understatement, as I would describe it as "multiple pile up" TV.

Yep..........so she says.
By the way she wasn't wearing glasses in the aftermath show.
A clue that it's style over substance or she's got a manager?

But losing Stuart Baggs would have been worse. He's very entertaining.
Much as she maddened and irritated me with her ridiculous pontifcatoriness and verbal nonsensifications I find I shall miss her tremendously. Well, precisely for those reasons. What an idiot! But so funny.
She was the right person to go this week - she screwed up last week (£1.82 per bread roll!) and this week she was no better (No means no, Mel. Stop annoying the customers!). Her snidely remarks leaving the boardroom and refusal to shake their hands afterwards was really ungracious too. The panelist was right on YF, grace under pressure is a good quality and she didn't have it.
I think she came across better on YF though and she looks so much nicer as a brunette, although I can't believe she still thinks she's a good pitcher!

Of all the weeks Lord Sugar could have chosen to inevitably fire Melissa, I'm not sure if this was the right one.
Although she was still annoying and hopeless again, this time it wasn't completely her fault the task failed. I think the credit for that can largely go to Stuart, since he lost them the baby product which was the decisive winner, in my opinion. He was the worst performer on the team.
Still, Mel's irritating manner meant she was going to be taken into the boardroom. And if she had brought up Stuart's failings in there, rathing than going on about being "ganged up on", she might just have been able to save herself and pull the rug from under Stuart's feet.
But never mind - I won't be missing her, although she came across well on YF. And I've consistently said in my previous posts that she was rubbish, so it would be wrong for me to change my opinion and say she should still be in the competition. And I'm happy that Stuart is still there - for all the wrong reasons!

Stuart has entertainment potential for sure (see the still-pix of him working his magic on the shower head) but he sadly doesn't cut it in the Opaque English stakes.

They are!!
I thought that Paloma, Laura & Sandeesh were very immature last night.
Definitely Baggs should have gone (although there is a case against Jamie, for not explaining to Baggs before the meeting that children should be seen and not heard!).
It was obvious that the baby thig would win, and why were they trying to sell stuff to debenhams that they don't sell. Is debenhams too downmarket?

Hmm. I didn't think his behaviour when the babygro was being presented to them was so bad. It may have been enough to tip the edge and lose them the product, but even though it may have had such big consequences for the task, it was too minor in itself to merit a firing. Stuart's real fault was that he sold so poorly, but then so did Melissa, and Stuart has at least done well in a couple of previous tasks. Melissa was bad in every task.
