An Apprentice riddle...
Okay, I was bored, so I thought I'd come up with an Apprentice-themed puzzle for people to enjoy... if anyone looks at this after the event, try to work it out before looking at people's responses!
All of the following candidates have something in common with each other. It's something that relates to their time on the show, and everyone who has it is listed. What links them all? (I've listed them in order of how long they were in the series, but the order doesn't matter.) Series 1: Saira Khan Rachel Groves Lindsay Bogaard Adenike Ogundoyin Series 2: Ben Stanberry Series 3: Kristina Grimes Ghazal Asif Gerri Blackwood Andy Jackson Series 4: Jenny Celerier Shazia Wahab Series 5: Howard Ebison Majid Nagra Rocky Andrews Junior Apprentice, Series 1: Kirsty Cleaver Hibah Ansary Series 6: Raleigh Addington Dan Harris Series 7: Edna Agbarha Young Apprentice, Series 2: Ben Fowler Mahamed Awale Series 8: Jade Nash Maria O'Connor Bilyana Apostolova I'm interested to see how easy or difficult people find this... to me it seems really obvious, but these things always seem obvious once you know them. Have fun! |

I had worked out that those were the only two before though, so I didn't have to think about it. |

Okay, here's another one. The last one worked quite well, so I came up with a different one.
What do the following three candidates all have in common? Tim Campbell Claire Young Zoe Beresford Also, from the three there is one who stands out more than the other two. Who is it, and why? |

I'm not that much of a devotee to have got any of those answers: I enjoy it while it's on but don't make any effort to retain any more detail than the candidates themselves, my personal favourites/least favorite and the winner.

Without looking anything up, did your first set, TXF, all lose twice as project manager?
Jim and Zoe Beresford tipped me off, then Ricky, then Harry Hitchens... |

Your second set:
Spoiler
There is still a bit on mine that you missed out. You were right about what all links them, but there is one person out of the three who is more significant than the others, for a particular reason connected with the thing that links them. Who is it, and why? |

Is the order they are written important? |

The only thing I can find right now, is I believe, aside from the ones who reached interviews, they all seem to have been fired on tasks they project managed. Certainly the series four ones, the Young Apprentice ones, the series six ones, the series five ones, the series two ones... but Ellie Reed wasn't, she never PMed.
And it doesn't explain Yasmina, Tim, Nick, et al. Hm. Am I on the right track? |

I did notice this, but couldn't find the connection between this, Ellie & Ifti and those who reached interviews.

Still not got it, just... narrowing it down! Stephen Brady and Gabrielle Omar not included, though. |
