That was the best episode of The Apprentice I've seen in years. What an absolute car crash.

I wouldn't even know where to start on prepping food
Let alone making baby food.
Lord Alan's idea for who he wants as a business partner is weird. "You can't cook! You're Fired"

I was literally about to say, I've often wondered whether Suralan gets prior info about the business plans when he comes to fire someone, particularly in the last few rounds, as sometimes the decision can seem a little inexplicable.
Last night's episode put paid to that notion!

I wonder if he has a selection of basic business templates ready to deploy, so that regardless of which candidate he picks, if their business plan is plainly an unworkable, doomed mess then he can simply impose an appropriate template on them and tell them that's what they're doing instead.

Do they not have a look over these things before letting them in the process to begin with? Why on earth would the protein booze lass even be given a shot when there must be hundreds of people with an idea out there.
I think they should be chosen on the strength of their business plans to get into the process then have them fight it out instead of just bundling a bunch of tumshies in the back of a clown car and hope it’s entertaining. They don’t let people on Bake Off just because they microwaved a lettuce one time.

And someone really needed to tell her someone already came up with the idea:

Watched this the other day and had much the same thought processes. With the exception of Harpreet Hitler who has an undefined role in an existing business, the others are all just aspirations with no real plans waiting to be kicked off. Piss awful, not only from the candidates perspective but also the fawning over Sralan as he wheels out his awful fucking puns. I imagine Karen Brady looking in the mirror having fake-laughed her way through yet another Sralan segment and hating herself.

It is 100% Big Brother but with some tacked on 'business plans'.
I bet the interview process for access to the Apprentice is more along the lines of how they look and act on camera rather than their business acumen.

Didn’t Sralan Sralan shoot Bobby Kennedy?

I watched it a couple of days ago with my wife and sat here now, I can't remember who won.
I think that says all that needs saying...

I remember which business proposal won, I can't remember the contestant.
