It also seems that some of the contestants this year have never actually watched the show before, or at least have never taken any notice of the previous series. If they had then Dan and Joanna would not have been so keen to snap up the position of project manager for their respective teams. Surely everyone knows that that is all but signing your own death warrant. With sixteen gurning idiots shouting and swearing over each other as happens on the first episode of each season, it's just easier for Lord Sugar [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], formally Sir Alan, or "Sralan" in Apprentice talk, to get rid of the project manager of the losing team. It's a decision that screams "anything for an easy life" that his hangdog expression backs up.
Apollo Has Terrible Synergy
As often happens in this programme, the fresh-faced business wannabes have a shocking lack of self-awareness, Stuart Baggs describes himself as "a brand" with a straight face as the viewing public sniggers behind its collective hand. Like a cross between Alan Partridge and David Brent, he blunders through the episode, scaring potential customers by essentially barking at them and coming away thinking he is the salesman of the year.
There's No Business Like Bad Business
The first task was announced and the teams had to go off, manufacture sausages and sell them. Karren Brady, Lord Sugar's new assistant followed the boys as they were all but whipped by slave driver Dan into creating some pork 'treats' which appeared to be 98% sawdust. The atmosphere in the kitchen was so raucous that Brady saw fit to comment upon it. Not unusual you may think, but Karren Brady is the Vice-Chairman of West Ham United, she works with a team of Premier League footballers on a daily basis and yet she felt the need to comment on the amount of testosterone in the room. For Nick Hewer, casting his beady eye over the girls' efforts, there was plenty of opportunity for his patented raise of the eyebrow.
Presumably they have been told that they have a place on the programme a month or so before the filming begins, yet still they don't stop to consider the first impression that they make during their introductory interview. Within five minutes of the show beginning, these alleged experts in business strategy, these smooth tongued salespeople, these slick go-getters have already informed us "there's nothing mediocre about me" (a surefire cert to be voted off by Week 3), "Everything I touch turns to sold" (a claim that will be thrown back in his face by Lord Sugar after a task where the utterer of the drivel sells twelve pence worth of goods in three days) and "My first word wasn't 'Mummy', it was 'money'" (Seriously? You had all that time to think about your witty, pithy mission statement and that was the best you could come up with?).
Mind you [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], some of the contestants have been paying attention because we have two teams with the most generic Apprentice names in the book. Synergy, that hideous business-speak nonsense word is the moniker decided on by the boys, Apollo being the girls. Presumably the girls team are named after the moon mission rather than Apollo Creed, Rocky's nemesis, although that would be more fun.
The rousing music, the dramatic camera shots of the Gherkin and Canary Wharf, the keen, young businessmen and women in grey suits striding purposefully over bridges, up escalators and through railway stations, the moment they open their mouths and garbage pours out. Yes [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], The Apprentice is back and the contestants are keener, meaner and infinitely more stupid than ever before.
Recipe For Disaster
For people who pride themselves on being the future of British business, the candidates this year (as every year, to be fair) seem to have plenty of trouble buying and selling. The girls decided just to open up a stall and foist sausages into the hands of businessmen, presumably expecting them to keep them in their filing cabinets all day, attra
