I also blame the people coming up with the tasks because the last few have been very underwhelming. It was very unclear to me how they were meant to make money last night, it was a very narrow scope for making money and ultimately it was very unfair on the teams because one had a couple, which always makes it more likely they'd complain about the price and the other had just the one woman - their choices to re-negotiate the amount paid was barely fair and also they didn't get any chance to negotiate.
Going back to the ridiculous "handy man" task, it was the most boring spectacle of an episode I'd seen and it felt like a programme stumbling toward a conclusion. It can't keep going along as it is, either the producers need to come up with better weekly tasks which actually allow them as candidates to do some good business, or they need to seriously re-consider the format.
The firing of Jenny earlier in the series was a ridiculous mistake and ruined the whole series for me. There was a girl who was slated for not harrassing a chef in a restaurant - the suggestion she should ignore the front of house staff and demand to speak to a chef are ridiculous and have no place in the real world and the criticism she received for that was outrageous, especially when Charlene (rubbish name) then got a slagging for trying to negotiate a discount at the wholesalers. You can't criticise one for doing something that someone else was critised for not doing. How both Charlene and the other stupid blonde are still hanging around, when Jenny is long since sat at home, makes me seriously question the integrity of the programme, the "process" and Lord Sugar.
