Jesus they are all just so awful lol

Like there's probably 5-7 of them who I'd class as 1000/1 to ever get on the show.

Alana for example, how?!

Whilst the programme is great fun to watch, its losing all credibility.

They are trying so hard to find people willing to come up with massive catchphrases and with egos bigger than almost anyone I can think of, that the original ethos of the programme is being lost.

How have any of the people got past any sort of filter, unless its sole aim now is to attract idiots? thumbs up

I must be 1.01 to get on next year then if i apply?  Don't think i am results orientated enough though to win it.  Grin  Want me to apply to see how right you are?  I have always been tempted to enter it.  Never been a pro gambler on the show.  Think i would go down well with Sugar with my no nonsense straight talking approach exposing corporate wannabe bullshitters along the way.  What price you make me to get on it if i apply?  

Haha, you;d probably get on and no doubt go far Sugs loves a bit of a punt. 

Half of the clowns on it I am sure I have worked alongside or worked alongsde very similar for years. 

If you could find some IT wizz come up with an app to being a winning punter that could pull in the masses you'd be nailed on.

My business plan to AMS would just be to back the wides at various dog tracks.  Sure he would love it.  Put in the TFT ROI chart as substantial evidence of previous results and away we go.  What can go wrong?

I'm watching and enjoying.

i actually think karthik (sp) is decent.

courtney was my tip (probably optimistically because i have him in sweepstake) but last week looked weak.

irish girl looks feisty and has something strong about her i think.

also think frances seemed decent so far too, but her poor results (lost every task) probably will hurt her in the long run.

Still watching for the comedy mostly.

I think it ends with LordSirAlan saying "fuck it none of you get my £250K" they are that bad!

Watching because of bets.

I have Karthik and Frances left in my 4 person team. Loving the big K but I'm just desperate for him to stay under the radar each week Cheesy

I had high hopes for the sausage supremo, which were misplaced. Michelle shot herself in the foot and u ended up with Dillon instead, Grianne my girl though she's going to make Warbs Goulder and Stato paayyyyyyyyyyyyy

Really I just need soffiane to stop being an A1 bellend every week and I will have a good chance

The nature of our bets make getting pm fired in the early weeks v expensive and that's happened to me twice in the first month.

So nice Jessica goes.....of course before she can use her "skill set" as PM. Yet another one hadn't listen to Lord S in the boardroom the week before!

Happy to leave she says...missing her young child.

I wonder why they don't allow some brief time out for them during the process, like X factor do?

Because it needs to replicate what will be expected of them when Alan makes them his business partner - you gotta work like a dog!

I don't really rate any of them from what I've seen, but am leaning towards favouring the ones that you don't see much footage of. These are the ones not saying/doing stupid things, or making bad deals. So after a few weeks when nothing was heard out of a few of the ladies, that surely bodes well.
