Should have kept it on Wednesday and not show the football.Fucking hate T*e A********e but it's probably , probably slighty less painful and annoying than watching England.
River Cottage 9pm on Channel 4 tomorrow. The greatest TV show ever made. The Apprentice gets relegated to SKY+ after tonight.

Dont write Alex off just yet. Hes very strewd.
There are reports in the paper that Alex...
(look away if you don't want to know the score)
Quits the show for personal reasons before the final.

Lee's just permanently pissed, isn't he? Surely, he's pissed? No-one talks like that in the real world, ever.
I really can't figure who'll make the final two. Actually, no, it won't be Helene. But the rest of them are all in with a shout.

Yeah, why not. She proved herself as a Project Manager.
Okay, so last night she was a bit dippy.
Well, a lot.
I think Claire's got it in the bag though. Shame, cos I don't like her. Well, any of them actually.

Thats the whole point of the series though? To see a bunch of totally unlikeable people given the runaround and then embarrased? Surely?

Quite liked Raef, and the Squaddie who had the fcukoff West Ham tattto up his calf.
Was the squaddie Simon? Who fucked up the Photography task? He seemed alright.
As for Raef, the first week he was bloody awful. Hated the fucker. Then he actually became quite entertaining and was by far the best of the a bad bunch. Probably not the kind of person i'd go for a beer with though...
You cant like everyone, but you cant dislike everyone either...
I like Lee the most. Ok he's not the most elequent or well spoken but he's really got stuck in, and has great enthusiasm. He makes me laugh and none of the other contestants has said a bad word about him. He'd be good to have a beer with.
Alex is playing a game and I knew he would do well from episode one when he defended himself well against De Lancy guy. I cant see him winning it mind. Not shown enough qualities throughout series.
Claire is a dead cert to make final two. Has toned down her antics after being too dominant in early rounds and keeps getting better. I dont particulary like her but thats not the point.Dont think Sir Alan likes her enough to win but you never know.
Lucinda is a strange kettle of fish. Cant work a computer, cant tell a make of car, cant wash a handkerchief, cant get on with alot of people. And yet is a brilliant project manager. I can see her making final but under close examination will crack.
Helana will be gone next week. Dull as.
Well thats my verdict for what its worth. Do you know what Im takin about!

Who's she s'posed to work for? Last night the big thing seemed to be that she worked for some tenacious corporate giant, whereas Michael was just the ickle boy still wet behind the ears.
Anyways, three of 'em go next week - it's the semi-finals (sort of)!
Thought that was the right result in the end, though didn't really see it coming.
Clare was a more complete candidate but I'm not sure I'd fancy working with her, and she'd probably be even worse to actually manage.
Thought Lee was an uttercock early doors but they set him up nicely as the underdog towards the end. Everyone always loves an underdog.
And Alex had a little cry in the cab. The wanker. 
right result and glad he won.nice guys do come first :) i didnt think the final task was as good or entertaining as in previous finals. actually helena looked pretty tasty in the 'your fired' studio after.

you gimp. you got that 150% wrong!
Im pleased Lee won as he has been my favourite. Not been a cock at all during the series.
The final task turned out pointless and didnt really give any clearer indication to the candidates capabilities. It did highlight that Kevin really hasnt got a clue when it comes to ideas (stressball bottle indeed!).
Not sure why Suralan didnt choose Claire though. His reasons were vague.
Nothing wrong with Alex crying at the end. At least he showed some emotion. Its been a tense and tough 12 weeks for the final 4.
I thought Renaissance lost the task on a technicality. I didnt hear anything about profit margins or cost of manufacturing product in Suralans spill. No one mentioned how much the adverts cost either. As for Alpha, all they got was critisism for gambling connections. It should have been a 2 hour special really to see focus group meetings and more behind the scenes stuff with the ex-candidates.
A great series though and well done to Lee.

The tirade against timid little doe-eyed Sara? That was totally unnecessary.

I'd disagree with that. I thought their's looked the much more stylish product and Lee/Clare's effort was terribly outmoded at best. But Helene and Alex basically fuct up cos they couldn't work together (unlike Lee and Clare) and their entire product stemmed from the bloke at Givenchy saying to them, "Why not have two bottles?". The unique selling point didn't come from them at all, and they didn't really have a solid name at that point. "Dual" only came about cos the designer suggested the two bottles, they didn't drive it themselves.
Kevin was, indeed, class though.
And I loved their original presentation about Adam ... a dynamic, exciting, vibrant young man ... er, from Leeds!!

Sara probably deserved it. Remember Suralan saying (of the wedding task) "if I was a customer I would have shoved your facein the bleedin cake".
So someone else suggested the concept of "Dual". Does that really matter? The guy suggested it and Alex took the idea on. What was the purpose of those guys if it wasnt to get feedback?
Kevin is a lemon. Full of crap ideas.
Having said that "Roulette" felt very Old Spice/Brut 1970s. They targetted plumbers in a cafe for market research (when Roulette was clearly marketed at James Bond wannabies/gamblers/chancers. But where was the market research from Helene and Alex? Or was this cut?

I didn't get anything wrong. It was reported in more than one paper that Alex pulled out.
Gimp yourself.

Apparently she works for General Electric in their finance department.
Anyway, I thought last nights programme was the worst one of the series. it was obvious they had fucked up on the bottle so you knew which team has won. It was, mostly, dull and uninteresting, apart from that irish tart and Matt Lucas coming across as complete twats.
I retract my GIMP remark. It was totally uncalled for. Sorry.
Its a great put down that should lend itslef to more deserved cases.
