I just KNEW Zee would be gone by the beginning of last nights episode.As soon as he said to "put the maps away" it was obviously setup that THIS task would be his downfall.Its always the the person who is edited in to be sure of themselves that ends up biting the bullet.
I saw this one coming a mile off BBC!!

I guessed last week he would have gone anyway. That's all the BME candidates gone. Jaz deserved to go. The rest are debatable. Natalie should have gone instead of both Sophie and Zee. And I still think Uzma should have been doubly fired with Neil, but hey ho.

It was predictable because Zee made mistakes and yet I got the impression Sugar was a bit scared of him.
Maybe after last year's fiasco with Stella suing after her non-job Sugar is a bit more cautious on who he takes on.
Sugar may well be looking for a more placid less ambitious Apprentice.

It's creepy how the BME + Nice Tim went right away. It's like he's not even hiding an agenda. Now we're left with identikit white males.

I think bringing back in the two girls was his mistake, was a nailbiter for me because he does get a lot of airtime and talk a lot so if they wanted to keep the show interesting they would have probably kept him in.

Indeed. I totally agree.

Maybe he won't fire any of them anymore as they are all white and they will all get carried to the finals where they all win?

So what you want them to do? Edit out funny lines?

You should of known before this that if Zee ever got the chance to pm he would be fired because he is a total idiot. No amount of editing could hide this fact.

What's BME?

Black Minority Ethnic as far as I am aware.

Jaz was black/mixed race. Sophie was Malaysian. Uzma and Zee were both Indian or Pakistani. Oh and Tim was Tigger (created a new race for him).

Woah woah woah woah!!

So let me get this right- a couple of you think (or at least imply) that LAS/ The Apprentice production team are racist? Seriously?

If only I could think back to season 1 of this show and remember who happened to win and become the first ever UK Apprentice... Probably some pasty white guy I'd wager...

I would of said Uzma was middle eastern or Western Med.
Jaz was just bloody awful with her faux "moral building exercises" how old does she think the candidates are.

She might be Middle Eastern actually. However, she looked more like she just came off the set of a horror movie.

He invested in Susan Ma too.

Zee got fired because he behaved like a brainless dick. What was he thinking? Let the two people who made massive mistakes go back to the house and bring back into the Boardroom two who hadn't done anything wrong.

In which case Natalie is also half a brainless dick. She brought in Sophie who hadn't done anything wrong, but let Louisa off who had done everything wrong in the box task. It was her idea and she should have brought her in.

I don't think LS is racist, all of them had strong reasons to be fired, I would have given Sophie Lau another chance tho.

I've seen it in many threads and it is probably REALLY obvious but what is BME?

I think I have the jist but my words don't quite fit.

Yep, but clearly that time she got away with it, because Sophie hadn't done anything at all, never mind wrong - and there wasn't any footage anywhere of her being ignored by an MCP either.

No, she is of Indian descent, according to a comment she herself wrote in response to a message on one of her YouTube vids.

Either Black and Minority Ethnic or the Body Modification Ezine according to google

Thats because people who make big decisions based on nothing but their own sense of infallability, often do fail miserably. He failed because he didn't listen to anyone else , didn't doubt his first idea when it was clearly becoming suspect and failed to identify people who were smarter than him whose ideas he could use.

Its usually not that obvious, though, because there's a lot of people with some of those issues, and you often have one, or one of the weaker candidates who can't PM leading the other team too. You also have tasks decided by tiny slip ups (the beer task ) that cost more than sustained mediocrity or flashes of brilliance from just one team member (the chair . Thats why most tasks this series have been won narrowly , or won by teams that made multiple errors that would have been fatal against better competition.
