Once again, the BBC have searched high & low to find another box of idiots, ready to be opened up and laughed at.

Here are this year's prime specimens for your delectation & cogitation.

Don't know if it is just my imagining it, but the average age of contestants seems to be sneaking up a bit. Maybe they want them to be a bit more rounded.

Fat chance.

I'm guessing that 'Online fashion entrepreneur' means that she's sold a few of her unwanted frocks on eBay?

First impressions are that the blonde Welsh girl looks quite TIDY, and that Dillon St.Paul will be this year's absolute WANKER.

Lord Sugar: " What were you thinking? Okay - so you got a good deal on paper, but there was no planning, no thought, no execution. The whole strategy was flawed from the beginning. It's a bloody shambles!"

Contestant: "Sorry, Lord Sugar."

Lord Sugar: "I'm not talking about you. I'm talking about Karen moving West Ham to the London bleedin' Stadium."

Sounds like something you'd probably see on that "Sainbury's Basics" Spitting Image rip off, whatever it's called.

Tough audience.

What were expecting on NSC on a Tuesday lunchtime? Tolstoy?

Sorry Bry, I do normally find your jokes amusing, it's just that this one was a bit POOR.

My Wife is featured this year. I'm not allowed to say anything as I've signed a 200 page book bigger than the official secrets act, but they filmed on the day BHA were at Boro. What a choice I had, 30 seconds of fame or 2 wasted hours in Boro.

Are we allowed to guess which candidate she is? Or is she on one of the challenges? (my sister in law did that last year)

"They don't even give one time to dwink...they keep dwagging the wegiment to and fwo all day". This was positioned to me as a schoolkid as an example of the great wit of Tolstoy. Blimey. Perhaps there's some pun I'm missing in translation...?

Obvious that Dillon will be the first one fired. You can always tell who the first one to go will be when these are released.
