    Not sure if I've got the name right (Saira Kahn?) but there was a female Muslim contestant some years back who has made a bit of a TV / journalistic career for herself subsequently.

    Watched it last night but won't bother again. All of the contestants came across as complete arseholes. Add them to Karen Brady and that twat Claude and Sugar's the only one who I can (just about) stomach.

    I even bet the receptionist at the boardroom is a cow.

    Watched it today as yesterday evening I chose to watch a programme that had better and more intelligent characters, namely, Orangutang school on More 4.

    Which former Apprentice contestants have become "reality stars"?

    I know that awful specimen Katie Hopkins has carved out her own type of infamy, but i can't think of many others who have ditched enterprise in favour of a "reality" career.

    okay all may have been a bit flippant but a few turn up in these awful reality shows and arent they supposed to be business people.
    OK. So a couple of people have been on The Apprentice and then gone on to appear on other reality shows too.
    its more than 2 contestants in the history of the show.

    I thought she looked like that old woman Les Dawson used to play.

    Yes. She's on Loose Women & is about to start on Dancing on Ice.

    Hate the majority already.

    Can’t wait to see Lord Sugar’s face when he sees the octopus purchase.

    We were in stitches when we realised they were actually going to buy a bloody octopus... and when they got the tape measure out to mention the tentacles!!! Wet myself!
    What a bunch of cretins.
    Run a company? Wouldn't trust them to run a bloody bath! Funniest TV moment of the year.

    Didn't Katie Hopkins and Michelle Dewberry also start there?

    Maybe the '40 inch hose' may have given it away?

    It's not true to say "they all become reality stars afterwards". In fact, I'm still struggling to find more than one or two. Depending on how far you stretch the definition of "reality star".

    Or made you suspect the Octopus might be exagerating!

    Yer it's really easy to be smug in hindsight but in their position I'd of definitely ended up buying an octopus.

    I haven't seen the programme but I'd have bought an octopus and a 40inch garden hose from Argos.

    Hardly need to be a rocket scientist to work out that it probably isn't an actual Octopus though.

    That said, the other team took about 20 minutes to work out that you need 40 x 250 g bags of salt to make up 10 kg, so I think it's safe to say there are no rocket scientists amongst the teams this year.

    And what the fuck is an "out of work film extra"? Aren't all film extra's essentially out of work actors, or just hobbyists?

    The opening few weeks are always pretty unbearable as the cunts are usually at their most cuntish. After a few weeks they tend to tone it down a bit or get fired and then it gets easier to watch but, when they were parading them and showing snippets of their interview videos at the start, I said to the Missus that this was definitely going to be the worst bunch yet and reading the comments here I don't think I'm alone in thinking that.

    They ruined one of the best tasks by moving it to week one as well. The entertainment there is watching them flounder about not knowing what to buy or where, but week one always gets overtaken by the dick swinging contests.

    They've shoe horned too many contestants in now too, just so they can guarantee some double firings, totally missing the point that the thing that made double firings fun was they were unexpected. As usual with these shows the producers end up over egging the pudding trying to keep some fresh shock factor to them (apparently being shocked is the only way to be entertained in 2018).

    I'll still watch it all of course, and still enjoy it, but it's definitely losing some shine, and has been for a few series now.

    And why did he fire that mouthy northern bird? I mean, I could understand if he'd stoved her in with a shovel just to shut her up, but she was pretty blameless for the massive logistical screw up that meant they lost.

    That's another thing that has suffered over the years - Sugar's decision making on the firings is getting more and more erratic and less and less about what happened on that week's task. It's tainted by the fact you know he's seen the business plans and will always have in the back of his mind which one's are the most viable.

    That gobby northerner (Sarah Byrne) looks like the parody Miranda Singh. She couldn't wait to air the chip on her shoulder about being "werking class" and about others looking down on her. They will keep her in for comedy value for a few weeks longer than she deserves. Why do these women always turn on each other like a bag of cats as soon as the ante's upped? One of them (Sian Gabbidon) at least kept her composure and stayed out-of-it. Kayode Damali can't stop talking drivel and he won't be long in exiting stage left.

    What was hilarious was the amount of credit the person who worked out they needed 40 bags wanted for the maths calculation, as if she was the next Carol Vorderman or Rachel Riley!

    Wasn’t Sarah the one booted out?
