The croquet one was laughably bad.
Like a single croquet hoop bought in poundland by a producer probably and a few glasses of Sainsbury's fizz. |

I think the losers should get a punishment, make them clean Karen's muddy boots with a toothbrush or something

Judging from the trailer, candidates have more fun on boatshow demos than on treats.

Courtney in the cafe certainly was very grumpy about not getting a treat!

I think I'd rather have a beer and burger deal down the local Wetherspoons than half these treats!

They can't even seem to rustle up the dough for the rather limp abseiling down a little-bit-famous minor landmark type stuff from two series ago.
Next up: Duke Sir Lord Viscount Alan Sucrose: 'Prime truffles are one of the greatest and most expensive delicacies known to man. So we have a prize-winning pig lined up to treat you all to a demonstration of how to sniff them out. Once you do, any you find are yours to keep, eat or trade as you see fit! Now there aren't that many truffles in Stratford Karen tells me - and I trust her because if anyone's been on their knees enough to know it's her, but once you've spent all day on your own snuffling around following our master class from this gen U ine pig, you better believe me you'll be so hungry you won't care if it's grass or mud that you find. And so to top it all off we'll even lay on a Michelin banned chef to help you prepare that. You've earned your treat, enjoy it, and I'll see you on the next task'. Contestants: Hurrah!!! |

Unless you're a diehard Olympic rowing fan, I agree. There wasn't anything special about that at all. I suppose with a program like The Apprentice, you get uber-competitive people who enjoy that sort of thing. Definitely not my idea of a treat though.

Has any member of the winning team ever REFUSED the 'treat'? Asking cos there's a lot of them that I wouldn't be interested in. More than that, that I'd positively REFUSE to do.
"Sorry Lord Sugar, I'm not going. Doesn't interest me remotely." "P*ss off back to the house then." |

Looked like an event the candidates would arrange! If they were going to do sword fighting it could at least have included a film set tour to Leavesden or Elstree! |

The reason for the poor rewards is obvious - BBC cutbacks. If a winning team received an expensive day out, the anti-Beeb media would be onto it like a shot. Hugely popular BBC quiz shows give away traditional tiny prizes to the winners. Anyone want a Blankety Blank Chequebook and Pen? The Apprentice winner is going to receive a huge amount of money. A prize that makes the task winning rewards irrelevant, at least to the winner.

The sword fighting was at Warwick Castle wasn't it, so a relatively long way to go for that.
I'm sure Dillon enjoyed the dressing up though
