Just to ask, why did it take two of them to drive to "the South Coast" with the sticks and bags, then turn around and go back to London "with 15 minutes to spare".

Couldn't one of them gone whilst the other sourced the marketing materials in London? Or couldn't they just have sent the car??? And what sort of sweet factory is it without sticks???

I'm assuming the Apprentice rules are that nobody is allowed to go off by themselves?

Of course, a more cynical person than me might suggest that that bit was staged...luckily I'm not cynical

EDITED TO ADD: BTW I absolutely love the show. It's just that that bit didn't make sense

I would be a bit put out by the sweet factory as the eclipse made matching paw print lollies and presumably they were given the sticks by their factory for free, as we saw no issues with lolly sticks for them!

Each team gets two camera-crews. This means they are not allowed to split into more than two groups, because that would mean one group not getting filmed.

It's quite a strict rule which explains many otherwise strange decisions. For example, it is why Jadine had to bring the van back in ep 1. She couldn't just send more people out to the van because that would have been a 3-way split while they were travelling.

That's really good to know that, Me and my mum were shouting at the telly what an idiot she was for not sending people out on the tube or bus to join the other team. They obviously don't want to miss out on one second of bitching!

It is a bit naughty that the contraints the apprentices are under due to filming are not highlighted at all. Another example was the face-painting where apparently a lot of the potential sites weren't available due to restrictions on filming - this made Gerri look bad for not finding good sites.

however, if that was true then her team wouldn't have slagged her off so much in the analasys as they would have known that.
