Anyone else think Nick and Karen were very harsh on Sanjay?

I thought it was harsh just attacking him like that. I felt like Nick really wanted to save James....so the tight git had to pick on Sanjay....well lets see what Nick has to say on you're fired....

I'm frankly beginning to value Nick Hewer's opinion less and less now. He thought Daniel was more competent than Lauren last week, and this week he clearly thought that James' treatment of Roisin was acceptable..?!?!? Unless he never saw his behaviour?

No, they weren't. Even Sanjay himself couldn't put up a convincing case to demonstrate what he has done so far. Absolutely a dead man walking.

I could be wrong, but I think there's an element of someone having to play devil's advocate with those soundbites to try to make it sound as if any one if the three can go.

I just didn't like the way he spoke over him. The "no name" comment was unnecessary too; the point had already been made.

Yet he was praising James who had performing dreadfully in the task

It was signposted too as a selling task which they would be judged on. Mark, Katie, Roisin, and Bianca passed. Solomon may have.

Totally agree. it was just like boom where did that come from? Sanjay looked like he was going to cry but I'm glad he held himself together.

I hope Nick apologises to Sanjay. He's really sucking upto James on You're Fired.

But it's not a pure selling task - product selection is a key part of it, and James fell down badly there.

"Solomon may have?" From the fact that he sold that awful hanging chair (RRP £495), I think we can safely assume that he was the top seller on the sub-team by a distance.

It's a fair point that he hasn't been a great candidate, but that doesn't give Nick a licence to be such a dick about it.

I suppose "reality show" "judges" feel it's part of their shtick to be horribly rude to people who aren't in a position to answer back.

I felt that, providing that the edit is accurately reflecting Sanjay, it was a very truthful comment. Granted, perhaps a little too brutal and merciless, but still very true. Sanjay has been one of the most invisible candidates to get this far in Apprentice history - only Lohit from Series 3 surpasses him - and it is NOT a good quality in this process. He's letting other people take the fall and slipping through the cracks. I think the reason Nick got a bit forceful was because for better or worse, both James and Roisin have given their all to every task, and Sanjay had a lot of catching up to do.

True I didn't think Nick would be that Nasty/Rude.

He's been flying under the radar to a certian extent

He's one of the poorest left in the show. Nick isn't very likeable though. Preferred him in the early days when he had relative anonymity outwith the Apprentice

That was quite cutting and uncalled for by Nick, and I felt sorry for Sanjay there. Nick really liked James and was trying to put the boot in there, as he knew Roisin wouldn't get fired.

I think they were looking for him to speak up about why he should stay; as he often was on losing team and never had anything to say. He chose strange examples to prove his worth by saying he sold £20 in first task and then nothing on second task. I was stunned he stayed in to be honest.

Maybe if he hadn't been such an unholy snot to Jemma about how she "didn't do much" I'd feel a bit more sorry for him.

What task was that? this week he sold exactly the same as the "so called Queen of the Apprentice" (1), both were dreadful and couldn't sell "ice cream to children" He is an idiot but performed no worse than anyone else in the long run.

I'm not much of a fan of Sanjay. We haven't seen too much from him, and when he does appear he's often moaning. Yet Nick, I felt, was incredibly harsh to the point of being quite rude. I'm glad Sanjay answered back to that and didn't just bow down and take it. One thing I will say about Sanjay is that he speaks very well in the boardroom.

Nick and Karen see a lot more than we do and certainly fill Sugar in with all the things they have observed before the 3 fighting it out are brought into the board room. We only get edited highlights and that's what the producers deem to be most entertaining.

Sanjay wasn't responsible for the failure of the task but he hasn't proved to have much worth either.

No, it was about time he was told. Sanjay has contributed zilch in the entire process (as has several others) and has just been lucky enough to be on the winning team/out of the firing line.

Except he wasn't just selling, was he? He was the PM and did a crap job at it, disregarding his team's advice at the earliest opportunity. The loss of the hot tubs fell squarely on his shoulders too.
