Saira from the first series, who should have one. Ansell from last year who should have been in the final with Ruth. Ms Dewberry - will never understand that one, how did she get so far????
Favourite past candidates

The ol' "When I was 16, I was holding down three jobs every day" .. and, she was never OTT in the boardroom.

Me to, I loved James. Also had very strange crush on Syed last year (cringe)

I was going to post something similar about Adele, but you worded it perfectly for me. And the same goes for Syed as far as I'm concerned. Would not have wanted to miss him for the world.
I also agree with the other ones you mention. Tim and Miriam were my favourites, but the show wouldn't have been the same without Paul and Saira (who kind of 'grew' on me) from series 1.
In series 2 I quite liked Mani (oh the lovely arrogance of that man!) and Ansell.
Karen was good, but I felt she lost because she was too self-conscious.

They are my two as well. SAS must have a soft spot for Jo. She has her owm column on the offical wedsite. http://www.bbc.co.uk/apprentice/column.html
I loved James from series one - a natural team player who won virtually all of the tasks he was on, articulate, kind, intelligent and diplomatic. Easily the best candidate - only for Sugar to not hire him because he wasn't his kind of person. Made a bit of a mockery of the 12 week job interview. 
Wonder how he's getting on.

S1. Tim
S2. Ansell & Ruth
S3. No one so far but am loving watching the new series.

He has his own show on Sunday evenings on LBC at around 7.00PM 97.3FM. I thought he was a good contestant too along with Miriam, though Paul and Saira were the most memorable in a Syed and Jo sort of way
