Having read through a lot of these threads with people mentioning various candidates eg Gavin, Ellie etc I think I must be getting too old. With the exception of the main players so far - Leon, Jim, Vincent, Melody, Edna - I still don't know who is who and haven't matched names to faces. Am I the only one?

Found myself tonight coming out with a phrase I thought I would never utter, when he was talking about not "getting" the boys app: "I agree with Nick."

It's too early for me yet, as well !! As you say, the ones getting all the attention at the moment, yes, I can remember those, but most of the others are just generic also-rans at the moment.

I'll be fine 3 or 4 weeksk down the line......................

Looks as if we need to go the X-Factor route and give some of them nicknames - seems to be the only way we will survive this

At least I am on board with Mrs Bun (Helen - and yes I had to look it up)

I've got the men's names down, apart from the one with flappy ears, not sure if he's Glen or Glynn, if Alex hadn't been in the boardroom I wouldn't have a clue what his name was - women, Melody, Edna, Susan and possbily Felicity - the others, not a clue

Its like this every year for me

Once a few have crashed and burnt we'll be fine.

I do find it useful having the bios open on another window though

Who are those ones? I know some of the men. Jim, Leon, Vincent - is he the oily one?, Scouse. the Inventor man and Glenn - the Apps man.

Women - know Edna and Melody, that is it. Susan - is she the youngest one? A couple of women spoke towards the end of episode2 and I hadnt got a clue who they were.. hope they spend a little more time focusing on the women next week so we can find out their names

So far, I can only remember Edna and Jim. I'm not old, though, I'm only 41.

Thanks for that - unfortunately it just proves that I am getting old as it never occurred to me to look at the website. Duh!

The boys, due to their monumental fails so far, have been shown a lot more. I know all of their names/appearances, at least. |D I had no idea who Glenn was until he got called in to the boardroom on Wednesday though...

For the girls though? Ahaha.
Edna
Susan
Melody
Felicity - She's only briefly been shown though. I just remember seeing her and thinking "wow, she's attractive!"
Ellie - I only remember her because of her inability to spell "Vegetable"
Helen - Hair bun. I don't think I remember hearing her speak...

The other two, according to the Apprentice candidates page, are:
Natasha and Zoe

I don't remember EITHER of them? Have they been shown yet??

Think anyone can be forgiven for not knowing who on earth Felicity, Helen (keep wanting to call her Hannah, which is rather annoying lol), Ellie, Natasha and the so far invisible Zoe.
They have hardly said one sentence on camera.
What's the deal with these, are we going to get to know them later because they're in it for awhile? Or are they suddenly going to be thrown in our faces one random episode, epically fail at the task and get fired all in one go?

Of course it always helps to learn all their names before the series starts from the official site like I have started doing.

I re-watched the App task and Zoe 'the invisible' did actually say something! I completely missed it first time round but she def has a voice! ha

The others I know clearly are Medody, Susan, Edna, Felicicty and now Ellie. Of the boys, Tom, Jim, Glenn, Gavin and Vincent. I was only aware of Alex when he got sacked!

I remember Melody, Leon, (Edward & Alex obviously because they are out), Edna, Susan, Jim (I think, if he is the Irish guy) and Glenn. Other than those I haven't a clue.

Apologies to Leatherface!!!

Just realised their thread is on the same topic. When I saw the title, "Be honest, apart from Melody, Edna, (Other Name)... I thought it was going to be about which of the girls was best looking, and have just read it now.
