She maybe gorgeous. But she has got to be the most annoying candidate in the history of the Apprentice. Her loud voice and accent does not help either
I don't think she was gorgeous at all. Just loud and annoying. Pretending to drop that vase was funny once. She repeated it a few times and it rapidly became attention seeking. She clearly doesn't know when to stop.

Yes, in fact without Jessica this series would have been heavily lacking in personality
Having too much personality is worse than not having enough. If she was a performer then it's a basic requirement. For sales it gets some initial interest, but as a business person it soon starts putting people off.

In previous years they've chosen a lot of big characters for the Apprentice. Having some quieter people has made a pleasant change and makes for a more representative mix.

Sofiane and Paul were far more annoying. As for ever, have you forgotten about Selina?

Have you forgotten Katie Hopkins was a candidate?

I'm not sure Katie Hopkins was annoying in the process. Machiavellian, perhaps, but she was probably in objective terms one of the best candidates -- at least until it became apparent she was more interested in a media career than in working for Lord Sugar, and I guess she succeeded even in that.

Her boardroom putdown of a candidate who attacked her -- "your best friends are Mr Pinot and Mr Grigio" -- lingers in the memory.

She was annoying but not the most annoying ever. Her foghorn voice was a little much at times, along with clearly a lack of general intelligence.

Didn't find her in any way attractive either.

She was a wee bit annoying but not the worst IMO. Trish and Francis annoyed me much more with their complaining and back stabbing.

The big bald guy irritated me the most. Very negative and shouty, rarely making any contribution but quick to criticise.

Not surprised he was last to be picked in the final.

I didn't particularly take to her but I found the likes of Jenny (series 4) and Melissa (series 6) far more annoying.

I have recently watched series 1 and thought Paul Torrisi was incredibly annoying.

Was Jenny of series four the woman who didn't know what 'kosher' meant? If so I agree. Also Michael Sophocles for his tantrums whenever anyone questioned him, Kate Hopkins because...well, just because, and, for all I don't want to make a career from speaking ill of the dead, Stuart Baggs was really unpleasant. The battle of Trafalgar Square episode should have had him fired on the spot, for unprofessionalism.
To quote Nick 'Who does he think he is?'

Surely they were all more annoying than Jessica who meant no harm to anyone.

Oh God I forgot about him. If he spoke to me how he did to other people on his series I'd still be in a jail cell now....

Yes I did find her annoying, I found her to be too much at times, she would give me a headache working with her. Didn't mind her accent at all though and she reminded me very much of Michelle Keegan.

In spades - like her or not she is a clever woman.

She might not like your accent either.

She is a long way from the most annoying...

Katie Hopkins
Luisa Zusman
Selina
Sofiane
James Hill
Claire Young
totally agreed with the list above. I'd like to include Maria from series 8, but thank goodness she didn't last long.
