Kate Walsh - Winner of The Apprentice?


The past few weeks I thought Kate Walsh was fantastic. Has has a tendancy to state the obvious, she has definately watched all the previous series of The Apprentice, but shes good. When she was Project Manager she really was fantastic.


But last week she really let herself down in the group with Philip Taylor. Her, Philip or Ben really didnt care at all. Its was a real shock how different she was from week to week. Thats what flirting does!


Kate stood a good argument in the board room and think when she said what she did about Philip thats what made her stay. Although I think Sir Alan had definately had enough of Philip`.


So will Kate Walsh win the Apprentice 2009?

Raef To Be Presenter On Richard And Judy Show

Apprentice fave, Raef Bjayou, has accepted an offer to work on the Richard & Judy show, starting in the autumn.

His ambition, aparently, is to become a chat show host, and after a live audition on the show, Richard was describing him as 'a natural'.
He was definately one of my faves on The Apprentice, so i'll be looking out for him later in the year - i think he'll be very entertaining. And who could forget the man who boasted: 'The spoken word is my tool'!

Simon Smith - Winner of the Apprentice 2008

Simon Smith is the oldest of the men at 35 years old.

I dont recall much of Simon from last weeks Fish Challenge just in the programme afterwards with Adrian Chiles they showed a clip of him in the car making some stupid comment which noone found funny.

I think Simon is too old to be the Apprentice but you never know.

Kevin Shaw - Winner of The Apprentice 2008?

Kevin Shaw is 24 years old and is a Bank Manager.

Last week Kevin didnt really stand out either. In the boys it really was just Nicholas, Raef and Alex that stood out for either good or bad reasons.

Lets see what Kevin gets up to tonight? I wonder who will be Team Leader!

His saying for himself is ...."There are two kinds of people in the world. Winners and... I don't know how to spell the other word. I can't say it..."

Lee McQueen - Winner of The Apprentice 2008?

Lee McQueen a 30 year old Recruitment Sales Manager.

He and Alex last week were quite pally and I quite liked the way he stood up for Alex. He wasnt scared in speaking.

I think someone like Lee has a good chance of being the Apprentice - lets see how he gets on tonight. I also think hes one of the boys the girls quite like!

Lucinda didnt really say much last week but with her individual style of dressing she didnt really need to. She was the one wearing the bright pinky purple beret.

Last week when they were showing clips of this week, it showed her crying in the car...cant wait to see it tonight.

Shazia is 35 years old one of the oldest contestants and is a Mosaic Artist and Company Director.

Her saying about herself is this "I'm a stubborn cow who wants to have the last word." mmm...Id give her a job and im sure Sir Alan will love her and let her have the last word...not!

I didnt see much of Shazia either last week, it really was just Claire, Nicholas and Alex that stood out.

Lets see what she gets up to tonight.

Helene Speight is a 32 year old Global Pricing Leader.

I have to say I dont remember her at all last week, I dont even recall seeing her on the programme so I cant even comment.

I will take more care watching out for her tonight.

Sara Dhada - The Winner of the Apprentice 2008?

Sara Dhada is 25 Years old from Leicester.

Every year all the candidates have to have a line how they see themselves and this is hers "I’m a true example of pure class and elegance. I don’t try to be glamorous – I'm just naturally like that." lol!

I found her quite annoying last week, but the first week can always be like that, everyone trying to fight for the limelight.

Lets see what Sara is like tonight.

Claire Young - The Winner of the Apprentice 2008?

Claire Young is 28 years old and is a Senior Retail Buyer.

She was good in the fact that she put herself up for the challenge of being Team Leader last week and Sir Alan likes that. She wasnt great but she did win in the end over the boys and kept quite calm during the challenge.

Claire was really the only woman that stood out last week other than the woman in the background wearing a bright pink beret all the time

Jennifer Maguire - winner of the Apprentice?

Jennifer Maguire is 27 years old and is a Marketing Consultant....

She is also, wait for it...."The Best Sales Person in Europe"! How she came to that conclusion we have no idea, but you really do have to be a special kind of person to big yourself up that much!

Last week you could see she was really getting on peoples nerves and its only going to get worse.

When you watch The Apprentice, everyone wearing black does look boring.

Cant wait for tonight, will pay much more attention to the jewellery tonight and what taste they have!

Michael Sophocles - Winner of The Apprentice?

Michael Sophocles 25 years old Telesales Executive.

He wasnt very good last week, infact although I couldnt stand Nicholas De Lacy Brown I think Michael should have been taken into the room for that last bit of negotiation selling 135 pounds worth of fish for 50 pounds!

He really did look like he was going to cry on a number of occassions, and that little boy attitude in the board room was sooo funny.

But I suppose it was the first episode and maybe theres more of him to come.

Raef Bjayou - Winner of the Apprentice?

Raef Bjayou only 27 years old from North West London is an "Entrepeneur"...well of course he is! He made a real impact on the Apprentice last week.

He reminded me of an Asian Prince Charles....am I allowed to say that? Im not sure what I can or cant say these days.

He was so funny, so cocky but didnt have the confidence to put himself up for Team Leader....."I am a manager, but I only manage myself" was his get out clause.

He has alot of character and could be a posher version of Saied from last year without the swearing.

He managed to cock up the labelling of fish last week, and very narrowly escaped being fired after being pulled into the rum with Nicholas de Lacy Brown and and Alex.

Cant wait for tomorrow.

The Apprentice 2008 The 16 Apprentices

We were excited all day yesterday and the thought of being able to sit down at 9pm every Wednesday Night for the next couple of months and watch a whole load of mouthy, cocky, young people all fight to be The Apprentice 2008.

I just love the ones that have been to university and got BA Hons and Masters in this and that, yet cant add up 1 plus 1...



Last nights show was particularly fantastic, more about that in a minute!



So the 16 Apprentices are....



Raef Bjayou
Jenny Celerier

Nicholas de Lacy Brown - FIRED and Deserved it in the first Programme.
Sara Dhada
Lucinda Ledgerwood
Jennifer Maguire
Lee McQueen

Lindi Mngaza
Kevin Shaw
Simon Smith FIRED
Michael Sophocles

Helene Spieight
Ian Stringer - well the one who couldnt say the word Loser got fired
Shazia Wahab - FIRED in Second Week Unfairly!!!
Alex Wotherspoon
Claire Young




So last night all they had to do was sell some fish, 600 quids worth of fish had to be named and priced....oh and find a market to sell it at....Not one team got it right.



I dont really know the prices of fish but do know that Lobster is always very very expensive in restaurants....well the boys were selling it at 5 pounds a lobster! Even I know that thats far too cheap and I havent even been to University or ever eaten it!

Claire managed the team for the Girls and Alex for the boys....neither of them were particularly fantastic, but they did put themselves forward and Sir Alan likes that, especially in the first programme so I was pretty convinced that neither of them would be fired.

Nicholas who was the one to do the pricing was brought in to the board room with Alex and Raef and the minute he started about "Class and Educated" you knew he would be fired....Sir Alan doesnt like that ....Nicholas basically said that if you speak a little cockney, or more like...not like him you were uneducated. What a X%$&·"&!

Lets see if what Sir Alan calls a "Toff" will win this year....it would a first...I doubt it though.

Its funny, naming all the names above and seeing some of their pictures I only actually saw about 4 of them lastnight. Raef, Alex, Nicholas & Claire.

Cant wait till next week. What did you think? Leave a comment
