Watched again last night. I think all member of the team are dispensable to Lord Sugar. If you are inept or become inept you are out.
I could never go on this show due to the backstabbing and "lets see who is the best".

That Girls Team PM was horrible... Dictating her way to win the task... What a horrid woman...
I see it all the time... Women in business trying to succeed... And I'm not being sexist here...
But some women are power mad... And let it go to their heads... They also think that if they are more bossy... Then no one will mess them about...
But that isn't the way to earn respect... Being able to listen... Take on board what other people are saying... Even if you don't agree...
And sometimes running with someone else's idea... Even if you think it's a load of clap trap... They are good qualities that a successful woman should have...
Plus wearing short skirts and high heels... Being able to brew up... And cleaning the office can also help...

I thought their gender fluid cartoon character comic was crap, mainly because it’s meant to be about absorbing culture and as soon as they hear some French they said “I don’t speak it” and the dialogue goes back to english.
The boys team, whilst very traditional and quite sedate had the basis for a very good idea learning about space etc and had they had more time could have developed it into a very strong concept.

They seem to have forgotten that Claude Littner is fluent in French. Nick Hewer always helped the team though.

I think its difficult to create something in the time frame they are given. I think both comics could have been OK if they had been tweaked and worked on. Its also down to luck, if the girls team hadn't got those on line orders then the woman who pushed can't remember her name, would have been vilified and probably fired, but luck would have it they did and she won the day and she was feted as the heroine. I do feel a lot of them are on there these days to become 'reality' stars rather than business people.

Alan Sugar looks like Don Fisher from H&A, just Don never had stubble.

I know this is ageism but I think stubble on an old man is silly and laughable. What is he trying to prove ? It’s like an old woman wearing a mini skirt (Liz) . Act your age and I don’t care if it is ageist.🤣

Long blonde hair on an old woman is wrong... I'm sick to death of beeping my horn at a blonde beauty from behind... Only to drive past her... And realise she looks like a dead lizard...
Wrong, totally...

Alan Sugar is 71 years of age now. He'll probably keep doing the show until he is in incontinence pants and has to use a zimmer frame.

Who in their right mind would pay £5 for a nicely iced and tasty doughnut never mind the amatuerish efforts from these idiots! ....... and some folks were even buying them. If Holey had watched this episode her would be having nightmares tonight. By the way LS doesn't have stubble he has a beard.

It is very difficult to produce en masse a restaurant quality donut unless you are a masterchef contestant. Mine would have looked like a dollop. Why is the Indian actor still there or Mr Um as we call him as he seems in his own little world and can hardly string a sentence together. A lot of them seem to be under the radar. Am liking Kayote for his positivity and his piano mouth smile.

I keep forgetting that in London there are idiots willing to pay £5 for an “artisan” doughnut. Even if it’s tastes bleedin’ awful.
I liked the ideas they came up with but hated the execution of them, chocolate and chilli is very popular but the chilli is the mildest form in the weakest dose to just contrast with the sharp bitterness of the chocolate. You don’t buy the strongest stuff and pour it in like jam!
Anyone who believes Alan Sugar didn’t know about Actor Boy’s broken arm before he came into the boardroom is a gullible fool. For H+S reasons he would have known as soon as it happened.
It does raise an interesting angle, will he be exempt from manual labour? Can he be fired? It’s not like he can carry his own case now!
Totally agree about Kayode. Very friendly positive chappy who has already impressed Claude. Hopefully he will go far.

Nice to see Sugar add some humour and puns to the boardroom. It does lighten the atmosphere. Just dont let any Senegal football team members in the boardroom Shugs, as they will not like your humour.
