With these tasks do they genuinely make a fully functioning product?? I'd ruddy love a copy of 'The Relationship Guru' for some board game fun on Xmas evening, I've tried ebay and google and can't see any for sale. You'd think if these shops they sold to in the programme had genuine products they'd eye an opportunity to make some cash out of the apprentice and sell them online.

When the phone rings at 6am and tells them the car will be round in 20 minutes, most are still in bed, so they get up, shower, poo and wee, iron stuff, talk, apply make up, get dressed and eat breakfast, all in 20 minutes, amazing.
It takes me longer just for the poo and wee bit (including checking NSC whilst on the khazi)
Hardly professionals getting ready for a busy couple of days is it.
If it is real which i doubt why dont these so called clever people set their alarms for 5am.

The only apprentice product that I have ever seen is the 'drunken jellies' from a sweet-making task a few years back. These were basically alcohol flavoured sweets for adults, and were (possibly still are) available in Selfridges,

Say what you like about the Aussie Mark but the way he managed to shifted 60 units of The Relationship Guru for £480 was incredible, AND the way he polished the turd in the presentation meeting was impressive too. He's nailed on for the interview stage but I don't think Sugar will hire him because he too up himself.

For me I fancy he'll hire Roisin, I've thought that from Week 1. Her and Mark are the standout contenders so far.

In her defence she actually offered exclusivity to the borough of WestminIster. Which shouldn't really have caused them any problems at all.

All about opinions but I think she is the second most attractive woman left. (Just behind Roisin, of course).

Oh, and another thing, they have 2 days to complete these tasks, so by the time they have been told what to do, had a meeting to decide who is PM and then come up with the best idea, go to a focus group for some feedback, and go to a company to thrash out the design. This must take at the very least the whole of the first day, yet both games were manufactured and delivered the next morning ready for sale, I don't think that is possible.

I called the delightful Geordie to win after Week 1, and I stand by it. I called Yasmina early on, and was on the money. I've held off predictions again until this series, Katie Bulmer-Cooke will win.
