After being annoyed by Big Brother ( all women), i watched the Apprentice only to be even more annoyed.

No way did Naomi deserve to go, and it was an outrage that both Tre and Simon got away with it.

I like Simon but the way it turned around on him and he came out pretty much smelling of roses annoyed me.

Also anyone else notices he wears white socks with his suit and shoes, err hello whats all that about.

And when they both left the Boardroom, i caught Tre giving that sly smirk as he left what a P***K.

There we go rant over.

I don't know if I should put it here but I'm annoyed with myself. I forgot to set the timer on the VCR and missed it. I should be able to catch up with the programme but, You're Fired isn't repeated.

Back on Topic.


That doesn't surprise me, the past few weeks he's stopped being funny (imo) and has been coming across as a nasty piece of work. This became apparent when he turned on Jadine in the BR before he found out their team had actually won!

I didn't think Tre deserved to go...but I liked the way Sir Alan said, "And for that reason..." and made it look as if Tre was going home. But I was AMAZED that Simon didn't get fired. I mean, okay the wheelchair sales bought in more money than the other items, but still only sold two!! Not only was Simon's presenting car-crash television, but when he was supposed to be giving directions to Tre and Naomi, he was RUBBISH!!! Sorry for all the capitals - I'm still shocked that Simon didn't go. I thought Sir Alan was really going to have a go at him about the wheelchair, but in fact, he stuck up for him.

I didn't think Naomi deserved to go on the strength of that task, but I do think she's been pretty weak generally.

Simon should have went deffo he was awful at producing

Simon was bloody terrible, he really should have gone. Naomi has not been 'dynamic' over the series, but nor has Simon. Simon was lucky last week not to be in the boardroom.

It's like he's guaranteed the job because he's so wet, Sir Alan clearly thinks he can mould him.

Producing doesnt matter though. Sir Alan isn't looking for one of these guys to produce adverts or tv spots for his company.

Simon was clearly the weakest on the task so should have been fired. I was glad that SAS was making fair decisions over the past couple of weeks but last night was ridiculous. Simon and Tre are so sly it's unbelievable. I hope it comes down to them two in the boardroom next week and both get fired.

Simon stayed because he did make valid and rational decisions and his record over the previous weeks, yes he was appalling at presenting and producing but these are not key skills. Naomi was a better presenter and producer but her product selection and business skills were clearly lacking and her record over the previous weeks had been indifferent. She or Tre had to go, and Sugar prefers the ruthless and unscrupulous Tre to the charming, presentable and principled Naomi, which is a pity.

All you guys are missing the point.

SAS is not looking for a good TV producer or presenter. The task was about picking the right products. Simon picked products that sold. Naomi didn't.

I think he sees something in Tre - ambition, I presume - whereas Naomi is a bit "meh." and last time he hired a good-looking blonde it didn't work out too well...

So Naomi had to go.

I think the Michelle factor was definitely the main reason why Naomi had to go for Sralan - he is definitely still not over being made to look a fool for choosing her over Ruth Badger.

I thought that the board tried to use the excuse of judging them over the entire series, as justification of dismissing Naomi.

Without doubt she took to much of the task like a duck to water, yet her number already seemed up, irrespective.

I thought it was a ridiculous decision and proved that the actual assignment was pretty much useless. SAS already knew who was going through and who was out.

Simon was bloody awful at everything. It annoyed me that Nick didn't bring up how useless a producer Simon was. Naomi was much better.

Reminds me of Miriam's firing in the first series, does this...

Simon's product choices were bad too. And if he'd been a better salesperson he would have been able to at least sell the trampoline.

Simon also didn't listen to direction as SAS clearly told them not to go for the high priced products.

they sold the wheelchair more by luck than judgement - even SAS was slagging off the choice

I do wonder whether the placement of the items throughout the hour made a difference. If people hated their presenting so much they were likely to have turned off by the end of the hour, meaning that whatever the last item was it wouldn't have sold. You could have had the best salesperson/presenter in the world on there (I am not saying Simon was - quite the contrary in my opinion!) and still sold nothing because of a lack of audience.

I was disappointed with the boardroom, when they left the room they NEVER mentioned Tre, only Simon, but mainly Naomi. So she said it was a bad choice, well hello everyone apart from Simon said it was, Tre sulked about it too.

Really disappointed, was it Nick that was sat near Simon and saw he gave no direction? No excuse to keeping Simon there just a poor, poor decision.

Agree Simon sold nothing because he was useless and admittedly the decoupage was a stupid choice. But poor Naomi had to sell that wheelchair. It was her skill that got them any money more than Simon's choice which was appalling. Have never seen a more biased episode. Sir Alan's choice was appalling. And Simon was rubbish last week too!

It's reminiscent of last week's firing as well. It doesn't seem to be based on performance. Maybe he wants to employ Simon. Well, it's either that or Tre or Lohit.

Sralan is messing with our minds.
