I think you're mistaken about Margaret. She's just doing her job, which is to observe them when they're doing their tasks.

I like them both - but Margaret seems to have a drier sense of humour, which I absolutely adore.

".. obviously Edinburgh isn't what it used to be.." lol

This is a tougie because I love them both but it has to be Margaret for me. Her facial expressions are priceless - I crack up every time!

Nick seemed a bit off his game the second half of this series, so I'd have to say Margaret....

Margaret.
Nick really is off his game (especially since he was not able to articulate himself very well in the last episode without using profanity).

That comment sprung to mind for me, too. The way she said it! Brilliant. Definitely Maggie for me.

Margaret for me.

She has been on cracking form this series. Her comments about Alex & Michael have been top notch! And who can forget her shocked expression when Michael went OTT in his celebration in the boardroom?

Me too! Margaret's expressions crack me up at times! I wonder how old she is... my friend and I were talking about her and Nick the other day and we think she isn't as old as her hair suggests!

I like both especially when compare to Sugar's mates who conducted the interviews. Nick and Margarent have class.

Incidentally, at what age does a man need to shave every day to avoid looking like he's homeless?

The fat interviewer was described by Charlie Brooker as looking as though he's just put a packet of chips in his desk drawer before starting the interview. Perhaps he is using an AMSTRAD shaver.

Forget "The apprentice", I want to watch "The Nick and Margaret show".

They'r both FAB, and I love that we've seen much more of them, and their personalities this season.

I think Nick agrees with SAS about everything whereas Margaret's went on record to say that Ruth Badger should have won, and that she thinks Michael and Alex are both pretty poor, so I'd have to say her, she definitley has more of her own mind and is on the money 100% of the time whereas Nick occasionally gets things wrong.

Ohh! Thats a difficult one! I must admit; Nick does tend to speak up a lot more in the board-room. Whereas margaret tends to use her dramatic expressions to show her feelings.

I'd probably go for Nick though.

I couldn't possibly choose! I think the both of them are fantastic and the show really wouldn't be the same without. And they do come as a pair, of course. Bounce off each other marvellously.

I think they're both fantastic, but I feel Margaret can be a bit more perceptive. She talks more sense more often, whereas I sometimes disagree with Nick's assessment. He is a very witty man however.

Picture the scene a couple of decades ago at the interview of Margaret for her post within Amstrad.

AS. Why do you want this job, Margaret?

M. I'm sick of working for f*****g gobshites and want to dive into the ocean of opportunity.

AS. Next.

I don't know if I am old(ish) but I think we've lost a lot of the qualities of reserve, good manners and modesty over the years. Helene personifies this trend.

I don't know; when Sir Alan allowed himself to be persuaded not to fire Michael at the same time as he fired Sara, Nick gave him such a look!

Quite like Nick's "Hen's bottom" lip-pursing though.
