So far, my least favourite candidates are Melody and Edna.

Melody: Smug, CONSTANTLY blowing her own trumpet, and most likely exaggerating about her training with Al Gore and Co. And don't even get me started on the voice.

Edna: Rude, patronising, terrible pitcher. For a psychologist, her empathy levels are rock-bottom.

No-one is really bothering me right now, but I would say Vincent. So far he hasn't been interesting or quirky at all, just smug and self-satisfied in a lame, non-funny way.
Also Tom is incredibly wet "sorry Lord Sugar" and 'no-one would dare mess with you Lord Sugar', or whatever he said. lol Ewww cringy.

I wish some of the girls would speak up though, I have yet to form any kind of opinion on Felicity, Zoe or Natasha.

I agree with you. Other than Melody, Edna, Susan and Helen, I find myself forgetting who the other girls are. And I only remember Helen because she works for Greggs!

Am not that keen on Vincent either, and yes, Tom should quit the lap-dog approach. It doesn't suit an intelligent lad like him!

From what we have seen Susan - too little girly, Melody - too up herself but... Edna looks ok if a bit brash. But is in fact the Angel of Death. I like her Not to win mind but please be around spreading the disease - might be cause I can relate (he,he).

Go getter, overly chirpy people???? what normal person wouldn't be dragged down into the pits of hell double quick?

I wholly agree with the OP; Melody and Edna are my least favourite candidates.

Both seemed to have pulled off wins as PMs; though you get the sense that this wasn't due to their 'leadership' qualities - the second task definitely struck me as being a complete fluke.

Edna is the most irritating person by far. Melody isn't too bad and the reason I say this is when susan ma kept moaning at her, she just flatly said she didn't want to get involved.

Vincent for me. Apart from the "I'm good looking too" comment he bragged he was the best sales person since sliced bragged and then proceeded to totally dry up at a pitch - only to be rescued by the lovely Jim. I know it's edited to make them look like plonkers but so early in the game he's the only one who's really annoyed me.

There is "something about" both Edna and Melody but can't for the life of me decide whether it's something good or something bad - only time will tell on that one.

Edna and it was Edward - couldn't stand him!

The rest I either like or are too inoffensive for me to dislike at the moment

So far, Edna by a country mile.

However there is one amongst the ladies who has only uttered one sentence so far, so it's pretty hard to tell what she is like.

Edna without a doubt, 'something of the night about her' to pinch someone else's words! The fixed grimace, rudeness to others, unpleasant, knows it all ...oh yeah, isn't she in HR

I couldn't agree more! And I think the only reason Melody didn't get involved in the gossip about Edna was because she agreed with Edna's view of Susan. Just check out the expression on Melody's face when Susan tried to explain her app idea!

Edna by far! Although I really don't like Vincent either, he just comes across as a bit of a slime to me!

I disliked Melody in ep1, but warmed to her in ep2. She doesn't seem bad. The Dalai-Lama/Al Gore stuff sounds a bit laughable but so far she's got the look of somebody who'll go quite far.

Edna is horrible, though. But Edward was pathetic, and thankfully booted. Don't think I can ever remember a more laughable Apprentice candidate. It was like they just dragged him in off the street 15 minutes before filming after the real contestant was tragically killed in a coconut-related accident on set.

Edna is a horrible person. Melody is good (& bonus points for being hot).

Vincent without a doubt, terrible pitch, terrible candidate.

Gavin is pretty rubbish too.

I really like Edna and Susan actually.

Glenn. Just can't warm to him.

I really like Edna, Melody and Susan. I also liked Jim's sudden evil streak rearing it's head and Gavin is nice to look at

Wow... I agree with everything you wrote.

I'm not too keen on Glenn at all thus far.:sleep:

I'm loving the entertainment the women are bringing to the show and anticipating more passion filled competition to come

Jim's fight to stay in the competition was something else. I'm not sure whether he should get the props though or whether Leon is just spineless but that was great to watch. Hopefully Leon will learn a little assertion and we'll see more of Jim's 'tactics' throughout the series...

..and having looked at the candidates photos prior to my vote for 'hottest candidate' I believe Gavin is the most attractive male.

Glenn... he seems to ALWAYS be speaking. Shut up.

Also, Leon. A weak candidate, the push over of the series.

I have a thing about lanky geeks, so I fancy that scruffy one with the glasses. However, he's coming across so far as a right sneaky, slimy, smarmy git.
