New intro clips from this ep:

LOTS! I'll be going through them properly after the ep but here's a few I've managed to get so far.

Charleine running
BR clips of Scott, Brett, Richard on their own - also team of Scott/Charleine/Selina/? (Gary I think), also team of boys to the left hand side with Mergim (not sure on other 3)
Joseph in Losers' Cafe with Selina and Charleine (looks like same clip as the BR with the 2 girls and Scott)
Selina in a car in pink
Elle taking what looks like some clothes upstairs
Elle, Mergim and A N Other doing DIY
Vana, Brett and A N Other leaving the BR

I'm as in the dark about YF as anyone else. Previews are only released for the main programme.

Also next week - looks like Team Blue (aka Elle, Mergim, Richard, Charleine) lose whilst Team Red (Scott, Gary, Selina, Sam) triumph.

Elle was PM I think

Looks like Mergim messes up as well

My guess Elle, April, Mergim and David are fired in a 4 way firing

I think that was Richard with Vana and Brett, do you think it is the final 6? 3 vs 3 teams? Richard, Vana and Brett team win and Charline, Selina and Jospeh lose the task before final 5 (interviews)

Surely he wouldn't go that balls-to-the-wall crazy, I mean losing 4 candidates in one go would surely cut this series short by an episode or 2 AND would make You're Fired hectic as all hell.

Hes going to fire more than one for sure, the 4 named are not seen in future tasks so my guess is either all 4 are fired or 3.

Ella is PM so if her team loses I cant see her surviving as she has not been that great so far

Mergim has been invisible and been a idiot apart from tonights episode but looks like he messes up

April also has been invisible and not very impressive

David seems capable but again he is not seen in any other clips. If one of the 4 survives I think he would have the best to survive.

Not gonna lie, I want to see an entire subteam get fired all in one go, could be good for a laugh or two

I imagine if it's a four-way thing, Selina will be fired - not doing YF and such.

Selina is seen in coffee place with Charline and Jospeh so she makes it to at least final 7/6 if she is on a 3 person team. She could make interviews and get fired then reason why she is not on your fired side show

Donald Trump did it so

Elle doesn't appear to be in the losing boardroom even though she's PM so either she's fired immediately or sent back to the house (has that clip of her carrying the rack of clothes upstairs been shown yet?). Mergim and April are definitely done, though.

Well supposedly Lord Sugar makes TWO unprecedented moves in the boardroom, could one of them be letting the PM off the hook so the final 3 are all non-PM team members?

Looking at closing credits again

Brett is PM off the other side

Shows a clip of RIchard, David, Joseph, Megem and Charline in final Boardroom and Ella is missing so looks like she is fired straight away

Another clip shows Mergem in the boardroom and April to his side so that must be the final 3 boardroom? - April, Mergem and ????

But it could be firing Ella straight away and Sugar himself picking the final 3 for the boardroom; which we know is all ready Mergiam and April. He has never done that before in my know league of the show

Prediction - Ella fired straight away and Mergiam, April and one off David/Charline/Richard are forced to return to boardroom and April and Mergiam are fired

Well, if Elle is indeed the PM then there probably isn't a third person in that final boardroom.

Having only seen the new intro clips once, I think that the boardroom clip and the clip of the team walking out of the boardroom (as in winning style) are from the same episode.

Which would mean the following teams:




With team 2 obviously losing. And it would mean either week 9 or week 10

Interestingly, the warehouse clips could still be from week 10 (and probably is!).

I thought the same as you, but missed Gary

So looking like the next few to be fired are Ella, Mergiam, April, Sam, David and Scott

Shocked about Scott and David tbh they seem the best of a bad bunch really.

Not really liking this final 7 if it is what it seems. Joseph and RIchard seem the best. Brett, Vana and Selina making it that far is shocking as they are so bad. Charline is not that great either and Gary is... well who is Gary

I really do hope Scott and David somehow pull through and we're just being slightly mis-led. Would be a shame to lose either of them because as you say, they're the best of a poor bunch.

Don't see what is so great about them myself. Think that my only problem is that Selina makes it that far and we will be getting our weekly dose of newspaper articles from her for a while. She also lied (or was that Charleine?) that the producers would keep her and Charleine apart for the rest of the series.

Perhaps we are indeed being misled, but that foursome in the boardroom was very clear to see and we didn't even need the confirmation of the other team as provided (we had already seen Vana with the other boys in future tasks).

LOL at Elle going with a 0-6 record


P.S. Pretty sure now that I know at least one of the finalists. Also makes it likelier that their team wins the final task in week 10 (offcourse, they could lose and this person is spared).

I know, the Selina staying in is what depresses me the most, I would be willing to lose Scott and David if it meant Selina goes with them, read an article today about her and how she was claiming Brett kept "eyeing her up" and I just couldn't help but feel pity for Brett that he's been now roped into her BS.

As for that finalist theory, do tell (in spoiler tags obviously)

LOL, Brett is on team Charleine, so not surprising she is claiming that

Mind you, it does mean that the old intro was a major spoiler, as neither of them can go before that happens (the shouting contest).



This is purely based on some twitter observations (one of which could be from someone who misunderstood it):



Again, this is all reading between the lines. This candidate is certainly not a favourite of mine, but it was something that got my attention while surveying the twitter accounts of the candidates.

If those are the final 7 (in the intro; both the boardroom clips), it will be interesting to see which two will not make it to the interview rounds.

Just to confirm, her name is ELLE, not ELLA

Also, the clip that they've got for task 6 on the Apprentice site is brilliant (basically Mergim cannot screw in a nail nor see if a shelf is straight, April and Charleine have to help and Karren looks like her meds are wearing off)

New intro clips, in further detail:

Blimey, that IS a surprise. But it's entirely feasible.

Btw @slouchingthatch, with regards to YF, I meant more the guys on the thread who trawl Twitter, I know there's no spoilers about YF (just worded it awfully).

No worries. Often someone in the audience leaks who the fired candidate is though, right? (Despite the fact the audience are asked politely not to.)
