Just wathced it, what a bunch of arse crawng to55ers :lol:
15 May, 2008 at 12:19 am #322968In tonight’s main programme, a black lady was trying on a wedding dress and Alex was trying to make the sale by saying, “its the colour against your skintone”, the black lady then smiled and pointed at him as if to say thats not a nice thing to say, Alex said “what can i say” and shut up because he feared her reaction.
Earlier, Alex had said the exact same thing, but to a white girl, not one single negative reaction.
Do black people have chips on their shoulders? Have they been given the politically correct green light by white liberals to accusse innocent white people of racism?
In the aftershow, white liberal mark frith-splif (looking very frilly) said of sara “as the series has gone on, i think you’ve been bullied”, the audience applauded.
Later, Sara said she had been attacked, rather than bullied, thus white liberal mark frith-splif was wrong.
Then mark splif had a go at Alex, mentioning what Alex said about the one who sold the least should be fired, Alex didn’t mention anyone specifically, bu mark splif made it sound like he did, again, defending Sara, why??
Amazingly, mark splif, after all the plaudits of Lee by just about everyone else, attacked Lee about his temper. I think mark splif doesn’t like white hetrosexuals.
Then lightning struck twice as the after show presenter made out that the audience voted that sara should not have been fired, saying it was unanomous, it was about 55-45 in her favour. What is it with white liberals and non whites??
Great sly look from Margaret btw.
15 May, 2008 at 12:56 am #322969Alex would attempt the sale of the proverbial Ice to the eskimos..he has been in the losing team for 6 weeks on the trot.
sometimes folks are NOT secure round black people.so i assume it was innocence,albeit with some ignorance thrown in. RE the “skin tone”.. I mean ffs IF he had said ” well frankly MiZZ Scarlet” he might have been to blame.as half of the drresses were like a ebay re-mix of gone with the damm wind :) The best was the posh bint.telling some awkward looking lass ” you look beautiful!” knowing well fine she would NEVER afford the so called ‘designer’ rag.
15 May, 2008 at 6:33 am #322970i got the impression emma that she was merely giving him the,” that ploy wont wash thing” rather than it being race related she smiled at him as if to say cheeky chap trying to charm me rather than what ur saying ,but maybe i missed something there, and if it was a race issue moment wouldnt they have edited it ?
and im glad the one that left did, she was annoying, but Micheal i think his name is really should have gone too what a t it.15 May, 2008 at 7:26 am #322971I thought for a fleeting moment he was going to also fire that Michael sofolofugs or what ever his name is, its obvious the only thing he has a talent for is crying his way out of tough situations. He makes me cringe whenever he opens his mouth.
I started the programe absolutely hating Rafe, but I thought his honesty last night was admirable. Im still confused about what he actually does apart from sit in the back of cars for most episodes on the phone.
When it came to the physical side I didnt see many people skills come through. He was almost resorting to physically grabbing people as they went by!
15 May, 2008 at 9:45 am #322972Alan Sugar ought to fire the lot of ’em !!!
Rarely if ever have I seen such a collection of complete and utter incompetents gathered together in one place. They (collectively) appear to have little or no idea about organising anything; their planning is vague and unco-ordinated at best; their marketing ideas are aspirational and regularly come unstuck at the first hurdle; they are in business terms a complete disaster waiting to happen.
The ‘debriefs’ are a total farce with everybody pointing the finger at everybody else whilst claiming success for themselves – even in the face of a proven failure. They are all arrogant, self-serving, and totally and utterly useless and incompetent.
How they ever manage to get dressed unaided each morning remains a total mystery … not least to themselves.
15 May, 2008 at 9:54 am #322973You have a point lol :lol: alot of them really shouldnt be in business, but i suppose it is an Apprentice position they are trying to win so they can work for and learn from Alan Sugar, so i suppose it’s a case of trying to find one with possible ability, but yes it is a tad dire with most of them.
15 May, 2008 at 10:16 am #322974“A tad dire??????? ” I should say so. The so-called apprenticeship is a total misnomer. They will need some basic business skills to even begin to survive in Sir Alan’s world. This lot probably couldn’t find their way to the toilet.

Ah!…..the voice of reason, a man that calls a spade a spade, well done sir, I enjoyed your tirade. :D
15 May, 2008 at 12:52 pm #322976Isnt it reassuring that these are the businessmen/women of our time… are we supposed to be inspired by them? Surely we are meant to be really impressed at their so called “skills”. They go on a course to be chosen for the program, Id love to see some of the ones who never made it, that would be a good program.
I do think that Margaret is fast becoming the most entertaining person on the program, a woman of few words but the words she does use are so well put.
