Another Wednesday has graced us with its presence and that means another episode of The Apprentice. I really enjoyed discussing last weeks pet food task with you all and this task looks to be really promising as well.

Today, the contestants have to start a rubbish removal company and there are tears to be seen!

I thought I'd try showcasing some of the threads started by our members in the blue box (not the Tardis!) above. This way those who are waiting for the episode to start, or looking for more threads to post in can see a little selection up above. What do you guys think? Would you like to see a 'thread showcase' every week?

'Helen is still the only candidate I cannot recall anything she has done'

Wholeheartedly agree. In fact, before last week I wasn't even aware there was a candidate called Helen! I honestly thought she had been brought in midway through the show cos someone dropped out for family reasons or something.

Some people must have incredibly poor attention skills - or memories - or both.

I wonder if it ties in with being unable to understand thread structure.

Thanks Andy - the thread showcase looks like a nice idea.

*Sits back and waits for the rubbish task to start*

Thanks for the thread Andy.

This one's fine by me but I have no objection in principle to a showcase.

Yes there is nothing as revolting as dealing with rubbish and I predict nothing more enjoyable than sitting back and watching a bunch of numpties doing it. I have cotton wool on standby for when the screeching starts. Would rather like to have seen Vincent on this task.

Will Team Logic finally win a task?

Pity for me that the computer and the TV are in different rooms, means I can't comment live during the task. Will do after the show though.
