Zone Competition The Apprentice Sweepstake 2025 and Draw.

[Tangled up in Blue]

Just got back from the theatre yesterday in time to see the 2nd half.Notice my lass Amber managed to be in the winning team again.A nice trick if you can pull it off! Final 5 & interviews next time:

Well, an interesting interview episode.

Amber-Rose's bubble tea venture never even got considered seriously, and she was eaten alive by the 5. Exit in 5th.

My girl Chisola was well received and was praised for her competency but her business plan (a kind of dating app for investors and entrepreneurs) was not viable, 4th place.

Jordan, arguably got the best result over everyone, in being told by Shuggs to "come back to him when his business was at the next level", and passing over his personal contact details. 3rd place, but probably the biggest winner.

And so, we are down to the final two, Dean and Anisa, who've been two of the least successful candidates throughout the tasks. Dean with his existing air conditioning unit, who thinks it appropriate to have a photo of a dildo on one his air conditioning units in a social media post, and really wants mentorship rather than the money, which he sees as a safety net, and Anisa, who was praised by all 5 of the interviewers (is Claude going soft in his old age?!), and makes pizzas with Indian food toppings in "dark kitchens" (yes, had to Google it!).

Could go either way, but wouldn't surprise me if he went for Dean as Anisa, talented though she undoubtedly is, has a model which is easily copied.

@Suffolk Shrimper In Dorset - Dean Franklin vs @BILLERICAY BLUE - Anisa Khan

Not surprised about Dean making the final. He seems to have the entertainment factor, a little like Tom Skinner. There for the viewing figures me thinks.

Not suprised that Amber didn't make the cull.FWIW think i got a lot of bang for my buck with her.

Woo hoo! I'm better at this than the Prediction League.

@Cricko please keep 50% of the prize money to go towards SZ running costs, and then can the other half please go to the SUEPA Fund (which has as its primary aim building up monies to help fund a future club museum which I'm sure all Shrimpers will love to see). There is now a donate button on the Shrimpers Trust site and from there a drop down menu will show SUEPA as an option. Hope that ok .

UTB, Andy

 

[Supernaut]

What a joke. That ****ing prick had a total 'mare at the interviews, and had his total unprofessionalism highlighted to Sir Alan, and yet he still hired the ****. I despair.

You callled it right OBl.Always like it when an Essex boy wins.

Very surprised Dean won it, being a bit of a Cockerney wide boy always seems to go far with Sugs. Anisa seemed a much brighter candidate, despite messing up when she was PM on the hot sauce task.

Did you know Dean has two kids? He only mentioned it 742 times in the final.
