[quote=brangdon]At one point, four of them did. We see Andy saying, "If you three are willing to do it, so am I" or words to that effect.QUOTE]

Originally though, not a single one of them wanted to do it. They said they would elect someone, Andy said that could be bullying if the person they all decided on didn't actually want to do (which means he really didn't want to be PM). Which is what ended up happening. Oh the irony!

Who thinks the Apprentice should go to a public vote?
Me personally no, and I cant see Siralan going for that either, if you remember waht he said when they all went into the boardroom at the start you will know why.

I think Gerri should have been fired. She spent the whole task rolling her eyes willing it to fail. Then her comments about Andy 'he shouldn't be here, not for business' pausing for dramatic effect. What a horrible cow.

No way.
At least in The Apprentice someone with an hint of intelligence and knowledge in the subject makes the final decision. All the other 'reality' shows are glorified popularity contests in which ability is secondary.

She looked like she fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way to the ground

If we had relied on the public vote for the last series then Syed would have walked in week one. Just think of all the Syed bullsh*t we would have missed

Gerri - I don't mind her being fat or ugly, lots of people are, but she could try wearing a blouse that fits better if she is supposed to be in the 'business world' looking down on people like Andy.

I'm sure, at one point, I could hear the stitching on that blouse straining under the pressure

Yeah I must admit I agree with you. Jadine was being needlessly long-sighted. Didn't she realise that they were only going to sell the coffee for one day and that they would be judged on short-term profits, not long-term brand establishment?

Maybe she is going to include the Eclipse brand in every weekly task, and hoping that by the final task, the public love Eclipse and can't wait to throw money at her wares. Eclipse cat calendars next week perhaps

There was a kind of public vote at the end of You're Fired, where the studio audience had to decide whether they thought Sugar's decision to lose Andy was right or not. You'd think this scenario would, if anything, favour the fired person, as they've had a whole programme to show their 'human side' and best bits; however the studio audience on Wednesday voted overwhelmingly in favour of Sugar's decision to fire Andy.

Absolutely. This lack of public vote is a major winner certainly for me. Trying to guess who AS will fire is all part of the fun of watching.

Rory and Katie are the leaders so expect one of them having a strong chance of getting fired.

Does anyone know if "You're Fired" is repeated at all - unfortunately missed it as I messed up the recording. Should be fine for tonight, but would be useful to know for future weeks.

I don't think it is but you might check out the BBC Website as they may have clips available online.

I thought it was great when Andy was leaving and he left his leather folder behind that he carried everywhere with him, a useless tool.

Why, during the programme, do they have to show future clips so you know straight away who will survive the wrath of Sugar?
