Zone Competition The Apprentice Sweepstake 2025 and Draw.

That had to be one of the quickest final 3 segments I can remember, they didn't even make any attempt to pad it out for dramatic effect that the other 2 were under any kind of threat.

I guessed it was going to be over quickly when I saw the time counter was showing it was over 55m of a 58m show, knowing there was still a preview of next week, the loser in a taxi, and the surviving candidates going back to the house still be squeezed into the next 3 minutes.
 
Just got back from Cadiz late last nite to see the ending if yesterday's episode.See my lass, Amber, was in the boardroom again.She doesn't look like a winner to me so it's just a question of when she goes I suppose.Won't be too long.
 
Quite fair that nobody beside Jana went, both sub teams were split down the middle and sticking to their guns, and basically it was Janas daft idea to try and come up with a new "Easter Bunny".
 
I thought my girl did ok as PM for the 1st time, but should have taken her sub team leader, Anisa, in, because it was her who made the call on alcohol. If you're paying that kind of money on a corporate day out, then you simply have to have booze!

Jonny was unfortunate, but hadn't really shone much. Frederick was lucky imho, because revealing costs to the client was a huge faux pas.
 
Johnny seemed out of his depth the last few weeks, no complaints. The only thing he did right this week was try and steer Anisa towards actually buying some wine (only to be ignored), I was very surprised more wasn't made of that, as it was one of the biggest reasons they had to refund the clients.

It was clear to see who'd won the task before they set foot in the boardroom, for someone who supposedly had experience of organising work away days, I thought Chisola had a shocker too.

Double firing last night - is that the first time we've seen someone fired before they go back in as a 3?

Tough one last night, I liked Frederick but he was a weak PM, and I disliked the way Mia just took over everything and ignored anyone else's criticisms or suggestions. That dog was way too young for the target age group and that was entirely her doing. Frederick had to go as the PM but I thought she dodged a bullet.

Liam and Keir were both really poor and underprepared for their pitches, thank goodness for my girl Chisola, in saving Liam's a**e, and therefore securing their group's win. Dreadful prize for the winners though! Inevitable that Keir would be the other one to go.

Melica and Anisa spent the whole time bitching, Amber-Rose's eyes nearly popped out of her head for practically the whole episode again and Emma needs to actually do something at some point soon!!!

No clear potential winner as far as I can see, I think Max is strong, but there are now too many women left so expect to see some going next week.
 
Why on earth were they pitching on the set of Dragons Den?

Frederick made himself an instant target for Sugs by choosing Malika and not bringing Keir back in, they didn't even get to go to the Cafe for a cuppa tea first! The only reason I think Dean stayed and Keir didn't was that Dean at least took ownership for the bad app, Keir was still delusional that his pitch was any good. Both Liam and Keirs pitches were awful to the point where I thought their teammates were going to tell them to stop speaking....immediately.

It's definitely happened on a previous series where the PM was so incompetent (and lost money) that Sugs dispatched him before they could get down to choosing a final 3.
 
I have just caught up with this series and I cannot believe some if not all of the candidates - they really don’t have a clue and some of the moments are really cringeworthy. What is all the face pulling and facial expressions from them when someone else speaks?

I didn't remember it happening, but haven't watched all the serieses.
 
Right decision last night, Emma has done absolutely sweet FA all series, and Melica has been so disruptive. Anisa swerved an inevitable firing last night because those two deserved it more. Any other week she'd have gone. FWIW, I dislike Mia intently!

Favourite week coming up next week with the shopping channel challenge!
