She was the bully from series 4, LS found her out in that task, after she lied over an incident in the task & brutally fired her in front of her whole team[whish there was an applause smiley], & then fired the other Jenny.
yeah fired on her birthday
I loved the
Jenny: It's my birth day Siralan
Sugar: well good for you :yawn:

I loved it when she was trying to explain to LS how they were trying to get the chicken killed in a kosher way... I believe it went something like this:

"We went to the man with the chicken and he asked Allah to bless it-"

LS: "Who?"

"Allah"

Lord Sugar makes a funny face


That broad was dumber than a fly lol

It looks like the editor of Wired is suffering a bit of a backclash over his overtly-PC decision to snub the boys and go for the girls.... He took to his twitter page to say the following about it

@suziperry ... I've not enjoyed the fallout afterwards on this one!

Most of the comments on the wired page about this seems to confirm that a lot of people disagreed with their decision to feature the girls app. In fact, quite a lot of them are saying they shouldn't have featured either of those since they were both sub-par.

Oh dear lol.
I was wondering if the sites had an agreement with the Beeb that they had to pick one of the 2 (thereby guaranteeing a result), so not picking either wouldn't have been an option.

i wouldn't be that interested in finding out the temperature on this day a year ago
Although I did burst out laughing when I turned over after Youre Fired to see the BBC 1 weather presenter smugly telling us "did you know that the temperature a year ago was -6 overnight?"

Ok, that actually WAS interesting.

Well, sort of.

How did the girls win with that awful app is beyond me.

10,000 people must have been duped by that wired magazine promo.
But that is the thing with apps..........you download the free ones, see that they are rubbish and then delete but...........they have been downloaded!

Collective thickness!!
The remit was an App for global use.
Their, the boys', App was restricted to the UK.
Couldn't believe what I was watching.
All the prats should have been fired.

Ah but you see I'm different... i go by the reviews it gets... If it has some pretty hideous reviews, then I will not download it. Of course the reviews have not always been that reliable... But most of the time they are

Collective thickness just about covers it, combined with a complete lack of wit and imagination.
