Soapbox Moment
Helene - one gets the impression she thinks the world owes her a living. How can you make sales when you are so stand off-ish?!
Alex - horrible little boy who always, always looks like he needs a wash. Lee - no right thinking businessman (ie Sir Alan in this case) would be seen dead on national television hiring a fibber that can't type and/or spell. What would that make his company look like?! Claire - seems to need a husband more than she needs this job. I don't like her much but she's worked hard for it and without Raef in it, I'm not bothered anymore

Terrorism? Yikes! And I thought I felt guilty for one or two of the thoughts that have crossed my mind to post and then decided not to! lol

He thinks he can charm and lie his way out of every situation. Lee - Naive, which is endearing but also annoying. He often speaks without thinking and he doesn't worry about details very much. He only seemed to be enthusiastic about the tasks he liked doing, and I don't think that much of him as a business man. He does seem nice enough as a person, but he's a bit unstable and unpredictable. Claire - Has she applied for Big Brother 3 times? She seems to be an attention seeker and nothing more. If she did get the job, then she wouldn't stick at it for very long. |

I agree about Claire...doesn't have a good track record for sticking at anything. Big Brother three times? LOL
Lee, I have encountered his type in my working life often enough to be pretty sure he'd be a big mistake for Sir Alan, even without the fibbing. I feel a bit sorry for Helene because she's probably more wrong for this post than just a wrong'un in general. She was a bit daft to give up her seven year career, imo. Alex I've just hated the sight of since day one. Needs knocking off his perch bigtime. |

agree totally, without Raef (and to some extent without the army guy simon or whatever his name was) the show is far worse than last series!

I agree actually, I'm amazed they didn't make more of all that. Having said that, I do think he seems a nice enough guy. And that dinosaur impression trick in the interview was below the belt imo.
Had Lee refused to do the impression and said what was suggested that he should have said (ie "No, this is a serious interview"), he would have been accused of not having a sense of humour. |

I totally agreed with SAS and Nick when they said that he was full of hot air and there was nothing below the surface. Simon, however, did seem like a genuinely nice guy but he was totally ineffectual and out of his depth. |

A lie on a CV (not just an embellishment) would instantly render you out of the running.
