We are now halfway through this so far interesting series and I'd like to know the thoughts of members who actually watch it.
Who's been your most standout candidates so far and which ones would you like Lord Sugar to get rid of?
I would personally like to see Daniel & James gone soon - Both in my opinion don't have the attitude to be Lord Sugar's business partner and at times can be annoying too to other candidates.
My standout candidates so far are Solomon & Roisin, both seem to have been impressive in this series at present.

As one of the very few programs I actually bother following, it's been quite entertaining this year, and am enjoying it. I presume we can post spoilers here... Last week's task was entertaining and the winners were deserved, even though their advert was awful. Get some energy into it... I'm not sure I'm happy to see Lauren getting fired yesterday, wouldn't have minded seeing the end of Daniel, to be honest. As for the remaining candidates: Bianca - makes a lot of foolish fundamental errors. Daniel - rather irritating but can't help but feel a bit sorry for him at times... Felipe - a nice guy, but doesn't really seem to be doing much these days. Hope to see him project manage again. James - quite unsupportable, a massive annoyance. Doesn't seem very competent, but I want him to survive until week 11, to see him get ripped to shreds by Mr. Littner. "This interview is terminated." Katie - nice enough girl, but due to the edits isn't really seen to be doing much. Wouldn't mind her seeing the final, to be honest. Mark - also rather irritating, though the Dan/Mark feud is quite amusing. I rank him over Daniel as he is shown to be more competent business-wise, but is always whining... Roisin - My favorite to win, she's been doing very well without the unlikability that so many candidates have had. Sanjay - Not one I've really paid attention to too much. One of the quieter ones, but he did seem a bit whiny in the previous task. Solomon - Has this funny smirk on his face all the time, but I've nothing against him, seems to be quite good at the business game! My favourite task was definitely the YouTube video channel one featuring Fat Daddy... though it was sad to see both the hilariously incompetent Sarah (though to be honest she was right to be fired) and Steve (we didn't get to see much of him! )

I have to say I was a bit surprised to see Lauren fired but tbh she didn't really do much. Of the remaining candidates, I think Bianca, Daniel and James will get fired soon. My favourites to win are Roisin, Katie and Mark. Sanjay, no opinion. Solomon I think will last long. And Felipe is a nice guy but doesn't do much.

Anyone seen today's episode yet... James finally gets fired after somehow becoming PM and acting like a d*** as usual. Roisin found her voice when pointing out James' flaws, full respect to her. Sanjay very nearly got fired, he needs to up his game.
On the other team, the tension between Mark and Daniel escalates, even Felipe is beginning to dislike Daniel. I honestly feel sorry for him. Katie seems to be the only one with no problems with Daniel. Now that James has *finally* gone, I think the next person to get fired will be either Bianca or Sanjay. Roisin also need to be more outspoken, that was one issue Lord Sugar made very clear. Who do you think will be going in the near future?

I quite like Felipe, but like the 89, his performance as of late hasn't been impressive. I'd like Mark to win, he seems to be the best overall candidate IMO; Katie and Roisin have really impressed this episode, all three are potential finalists in my eyes. Solomon and Bianca are okay, not standing out enough for my liking. And Sanjay seems to be very good at talking... But yeah, Mark to win! (or Katie or Roisin )

(or Katie or Roisin ) Love the sneaky bus reference ;D Yesterday's episode was nothing short of hilarious, and FINALLY that dunce's been fired, no less after a pathetic soppy and overly-saccharine speech. Then again, I do wish he made it to the interviews to be grilled by Claude! ;D My opinions on the candidates... Roisin - Already a big fan of her and would like to see her win, but for her to fight James like that, gone up even higher in my estimations! Katie - My estimations of her have also gone up, she's very nice and would like for her to go far. How could you not like her? She also got 3 hot-tub sales in, which is quite impressive. Mark of course got the 7, most likely as they guy who bought them was looking for 7 - a good enough discount and even... uh... the worst salesman in the world could pull that off. Sanjay - I have little respect for anyone who claims he's better looking than 9 out of 10 people he walks past on the street, when that couldn't be further from the truth... Certainly, more dead wood for Lord Sugar to have fired. Mark - He's very competent, which is why I rank him over Daniel. Can't really like the guy though, to be honest. Daniel - I can sympathise with him after what Felipe did. Must've been a kick in the nuts to hear of Mark selling the seven, pretty sure he could have pulled off that deal... after all the man was looking for 7 hot tubs. Felipe - Very nice guy, Lord Sugar agrees with me on this one. Bit of a pushover though, seeing as Mark 'got into his brain' No change of opinion towards Solomon and Bianca - they did decently on the task at hand.

I can see the final three being Solomon, Roisin & Katie - Daniel & Sanjay can't sell, Mark failed as project manager the task before and got lucky with selling 7 hot tubs, Bianca makes ridiculous gaffes & Felipe isn't commanding enough.

Sometimes it's nice to have absolutely no idea what people are talking about. I've never watched the Apprentice and can't bring myself to. The trailers showing the "candidates" (for want of a better word) makes me want to shoot them all. So much ego and over confidence in people who know little about how the world works. I've been the young arrogant "big gob" in the past (not as bad as those on the trailers) and it makes me cringe to think how I spoke to people. The world doesn't need people with egos the size of the universe.

But i remember in 2008, two men who were participating turned up at my primary school in Old Lodge Lane. That was one of 2 times I've been on TV. A DWL on the 455 was also caught in the scene. But we did something in ICT to come up with an idea based on something the guys did about Wearable Technology. And the person sitting next to me came up with something REALLY weird. Trust me, you won't want to know what he suggested

A bit of a bizarre episode today. Poor ol' Felipe fired for outsmarting the Sugar. It matched the brief... but I guess Sir Alan doesn't like smart-asses... Felipe will be missed. Of course the dream situation would be that Sanjay's team would lose and he would be fired... but alas he stays... Roisin: Was a bit disappointed with her until at the diamond store - she should have just listened to Bianca and headed for Hatton Garden - this cost a lot of time. Still one of my favorites. Bianca: Gone right up in my estimations and did extremely well in this task! She's made some silly mistakes but I think she could be a contender to win this now! Katie: I'm disappointed. Not as much of a fan anymore, but maybe she can redeem herself in the next task. A bit devious in the boardroom trying to deny she knew about skeletongate. Sanjay: Managed the task rather awfully, and lucky that he won otherwise he would have been fired. Never was a fan of the guy... Solomon: Still a big meh... always got that smirk on his face. Not sold on him... Mark: Still smarmy, can't warm to him. Daniel: Blehhhhh
