I only see Rory as pompous, arrogant and stuck up. But if that's what people like in a person, then who am I to argue?
i didnt think we saw enough of Rory in earlier episodes to come to these conclusions. Paul was far more pompous arrogant and stuck up

It can be amusing watching someone so delusional.

Quite but then it can reach a stage where you want to kick the TV in (not that I'd ever do that of course ).

I thought Rory was great last night. After Simon and Tre sidelined the others I was v surprised when they went with Rory's idea.

I was cringing at the dancing idea and Rory's take on it....amazingly it seemed good.

Nice to see someone who's been fired being supportive.
(Maybe SAS is employing 3 apprentices!)

I was thinking more along the lines of a furry household pet that likes to purr....
A Bobcat??

Before I email the Beeb, does anyone have details of Rory's agent, or how one can get hold of him?

Thanks in advance

I believe they've reopened Bedlam for him due to accommodation shortages.

Rory's problem in a nutshell, Tre insults him to his face and he just bites his lip and stares sullenly out of the window - if you're not willing or able to come back against such direct aggression you're not going to be Surallans apprentice.

I'm sure he's be fine in a School Prefect scenario but in real life where the gloves are off he seems to flounder.
Rory had already admitted he felt he wouldn't win a fight with tre and his whole demeanour is of a reserved nature. I'd like to challenge this fallacious perception all businessmen\women should have some innate ruthless streak, surely it would be better if they could spot an opportunity, or better yet, create one. I'm glad simon won.
It was a nice touch promising his team a holiday abroad.
I hope he honours it. Jardene must come in for special praise for the pep talk which I felt (depending on whether it was given before his team talk) really woke simon up to the fact he could lose the task if he didn't speak his mind.
Kristina didn't deserve to lose and I hope SAS has the good sense to employ her in some managerial capacity.
All in all I thoroughly enjoyed this apprentice series. If theres another apprentice do you think they'll approach Sir richard branson.
