Thanks to everyone who voted, I'm sure some of you will be more happy than other about the results, but personally I think they pretty much represnt how DS forum members as a whole have viewed the candidates this series....

Here's a link to the thread with the voting..

So let's get started....

***16th - Jenny Celerier - 112 points***

Best Moment: Erm, no idea!

Worst Moment: There were many, but trying to bribe a shopkeeper not to help the other team in Morocco was, as Nick observed, a real cheap shot.

Quote: ‘Throughout this process it’s felt like I’ve had to breast feed you’

No suprise that Jenny C finished last.

And i can't think of a best moment for her either.

***15th - Alex Wotherspoon - 170 points***

Best Moment - Securing some good last minute deals in the car task

Worst Moment - It’s hard to pick one back-stabbing moment from the many that have taken place, but perhaps the totally needless snitching on Lucinda in the boardroom interviews week edges it because it’s so fresh in the mind.

Quote: ‘I’m not trying to pass the buck or the blame’

LOL , great stuff "I'm 24" would have been a good quote from Alex too

***14th - Michael Sophocles - 180 points***

Best Moment: Securing a fluky win as PM the week of the card task due to the hard work of his team mates while he spent three hours trying decide where to place an apostrophise….

Worst Moment: Spoiled for choice, but the sheer desperation Michael displayed in stalking a customer who (wisely) decide not to buy from him during the car task takes the biscuit!

Quote: ‘Those people are dumb dumbs. Their dumb dumbs. They don’t know what their doing’

I did consider it.....

Not to be pedantic Mutters but it was the card task.

Good to see the idiot Michael down at the bottom of the barrel.

whoops, looks like i knocked a d off there, I blame Michael myself...

***13th - Ian Stringer - 245 points***

Best moment: Pointing out to Nicholas that if you could p*ss you could paint!

Worst Moment: Proving to be arguably the worst project manager of the entire series during the pub restaurant task, his lack of organisation, commen sense and any kind of leadership skills were then compounded by the fact he chose to take Simon back in to the boardroom with him, thus effectively signing his own death warrant….

Quote: ‘ In life there are two types of people: winners, and the second one…. I can’t say it and won’t say it’

NB - I'll say it for you, Ian...your a Loser....

***12th - Nicholas de Lacy-Brown - 257 points ***

Best Moment: God this is tough…he left in week 1 after making a hash of it from start to finish…erm…providing us with an early example that it’s probably not a good idea to stand with your back to Alex if he has a sharp knife in his hand?

Worst Moment: Acting as though he was on some kind of speed dating exercise in the board room in week 1 by telling us all he liked arts and culture but was less keen on football rather than pointing out it was Alex that priced the lobster at £5 not him.

Quote: ‘I could practically dangle a bell around my neck from being such a scapegoat’

eta: I understand Nicholas has had a bad accident recently, hope he'll be back on his feet soon...

Bottom 3 don't come as any surprise whatsoever.

I don't think bringing Simon back signed Ian's death warrant - who else would he have brought back, Michael? If Simon had been saying " A good PM would do this/that" in my ear all day I would have brought him back too (although he was spot on about Ian's management style). Ian's death warrant was signed by the silence pre-selection when SAS asked about his management skills I think.

**11th - Kevin Shaw - 266 points***

Best Moment: Tenaciously defended himself in the boardroom during the pub restaurant task, thereby exposing Ian for the lying little toad he was...

Worst Moment: His dire attempted pitching of his dire greetings card concept during the greetings card task.

Quote: ‘If you don’t put your weight behind this it is just the same as the US saying we don’t care about pollution’

Im enjoying these results. Thank you for all of the hard work Muttley76 I know I wouldn't of wanted to count up the scores - maths isn't my strongest skill! Jenny C came last yay!!!!!!!!!!!! Nice touch not telling us the results all in one go, it makes it more exciting.
thanks again and looking forward to the rest of the results,

Jack

10th - Lindi Mngaza - 309 points***

Best Moment: Had a bubbly personality, but have been unable to find one example of anything she did especially well in spite of making every effort to do so!!! Suggestions would be welcomed!!!

Worst Moment: Recklessly guarantying exclusivity on a deal during the ice cream task.

Quote: ‘You’ve got a 24 hour hotline’

Surely Kevin's best moment is "chicken carbonara"?


Poor Lindi, rubbish at just about everything.

***9th - Helene Speight - 365 points***

Best Moment: Pointing out to SAS that Michael’s age is completely and utterly irrelevant in the board room after the car sales task.

Worst Moment: Her non-existent project management of the wedding dress task that lead to her team getting trounced.

Quote: ‘I’m just not used to being surrounded by 15 gobshi*tes’

You could have just left it at that!

*** 8th - Jennifer Maguire - 454 points***

Best Moment - See Lindi, except minus the bubbly personality.

Worst Moment - Complete and utter inability to control her team members during the Morocco task, followed by a dreadful attempt to take the moral high ground by challenging SAS to fire her if he wanted dishonest people working for him….

Quote: ‘As a sales person, I rate myself as probably the best in Europe’

***7th - Shazia Wahab - 500 points***

Best moment: The sea of green cards she was awarded by the audience on Your Fired..

Worst Moment: Somehow being blamed for Jenny’s failings as project manager during the laundry task.

Quote: ‘my contribution right now is making sure everything is labelled so we make sure the right person get’s the right clothes’

If only Jennifer came across as well in The Apprentice as she did in the post-show interviews with Holy Moly etc.

***6th - Claire Young - 552 points***

Best moment: Excellent salesmanship during the wedding dress task

Worst Moment: Treating Simon like dirt during the photography task (ably asissted and then later back stabbed in the boardroom by Alex).

Quote: ‘My nickname at work is The Rottweiler , and I thought I was going back to more poodle like, but now I think I’m back to more like Rotweiler again….’

That line always cracks me up! The looks on the Clinton Cards representatives said it all.

Claire only 6th? I suppose Sara will only be 5th then...

***5th - Lee McQueen - 559 points***

Lee just edges out Claire to be the highest rated finalist, however if DS forum members has had their way none of this years finalists would have made it to the final! Lee's 'inarticulate enthusiasm' could be a bit much at times, and he needs to watch his temper, but he generally came over as a sound enough bloke, though Apprentice finalist? Maybe not so much....

Best moment: Running a very cohesive, united team during the Morocco task.

Worst Moment: Getting caught out for fibbing on his CV

Quote: ‘That’s what I’m talking about’

Well the final four didn't do great did they? I suppose Helene, Lee, Alex and Claire aren't too popular with the audience....
