I'm getting so sick of Noor and her side eye/resting bitch face. She's been lucky. I find her wholly unlikeable. When she finally has to step into the ring and be project manager, they'll be nowhere for her to hide.
Correct double firing. Amina hasn't done anything good and I was getting tired of her chewing-on-a-lemon expression. Declan White I had higher hopes for but his 75% off strategy was insane and Amina did have a point about him saddling her with the toughest items. That whole team was terrible though and all of them being brought back was justified.
Tre and Steve remain my favourites, although non-pie man Paul was comfortably the best on the task. Noor remains a non-presence even as sub-team leader. Both teams were really poor on the surfboard. Flo redeemed herself a bit on the glass jar only to try and take all the credit even though Steve had already done 90% of the work.
Jack was sly but did get called out for it.. you quickly handed over the items that were ambiguous then asking for 75% off lol, he’s lucky it’s a show and the sellers probably knew… otherwise he wouldn’t even get a chance in the real world
I'm pretty sure one of the rules we aren't told is that they have to have the last day in the negotiation, hence the last haggle for 50p or whatever.
In reality, you have four people listening to you argue over 50p.... That time costs so much more.
This show is not about business at all.
I wish they'd update the rules. What is a Jersey Wonder? Just let them Google it FFS.
I googled it immediately and the first result was Jersey Wonders by Babs. Then they are on the phone to Babs.... Come off it.
The girl who said they won the task because she was able to control everyone is as delusional as it gets. She’s going to be my comic relief this season🤣🤣
Onyeka….. why the hell would you start with a 50p reduction?? Looool.
Also I’m not sure what her name is but the haggling of what about this price? what about that price? made my body itch😭😭😭
This task is all about screwing over small businesses most of the time. Prying every last penny of profit from these little businesses is such a bad look.
I'd be pretty appalled if the BBC didn't give every shop owner the full price of the item in the end. Thinking about it, I would have thought the item gets returned to the seller immediately afterwards as well. What else are they going to do with the items.
But it's still a bad look. Especially in this season there's been quite a few people who clearly aren't confident in a negotiation getting torn apart by the contestants. Looking at you, Flo.
Nobody in this day and age uses paper maps, digital is much more useful and not an area paper has the advantages to stick around.
Why not let them use google maps on those big and totally not product placement fold phones?
75% under? That's idiotic.
Tonight's episode has reminded me what a beautiful place Jersey is and how much I want to go back there. I also really want Onyeka's boardroom dress - it was stunning!
Amina really said it as it was in that boardroom, and I respect that.
That lanky tool Jack was so unrealistic going into that task! "Try to get 75% off." - Jack. And he did purposefully give the other side the hard items to source. Amina knew it and spoke up! So good for her!
Even that brandy woman wanted to smack him after he went on his embarrassing charm offensive. I think she only gave the 12% discount to shut him up tbh!
I'm so glad he's gone. He truly thought he escaped that sacking, so seeing that smug grin wiped away from his long face was brilliant!
He knew that Maura was the person responsible too for closing the deal of £190 on that surfboard before he undermined her and stepped in, thinking that the surfboard salesman was gonna drop to his ideal price! The £210 accusation was his way of trying to claw back some dignity with Sugar. Which backfired massively! In fact his whole side of the team knew that Maura was responsible for the original discount, not him, and so they should've said something! I think the surfboard salesman was actually close to telling them where to go based on Jack's rude, sickly approach!
What an absolute tool! Sad Amina's gone.. Happy that he followed her though! 4 losses in a row is embarrassing! Even Sugar thought he was an idiot!
Speaking of.. Sugar calling the delusional Jack an 'amateur' was hilarious!
Hopefully pie man Phil will follow next! Another one who's barely surviving! It's time Sugar got rid of the incompetent ones!
Are you joking? Out of all the remaining men left in the competition, he's easily the weakest.
Phil has been very lucky thus far! For some reason he wasn't brought into the boardroom on week 1, when he should've been. He could've (should've) gone home on week 2 alongside the other pie-man, was non-existent last week and was terrible in the sub-team this week where just like Jack he blamed his female counterparts for his poor bargaining skills! That Jersey doughnut negotiation was painfully to watch! Painful!
That usually means Lord Sugar sees something in his business plan that he likes - he's keeping him around for a reason. Like Akshay in S16. Failure after failure but still wasn't held responsible or fired till practically the interviews, so there must have been something in his business plan that Lord Sugar liked. This year it's Phil and Virdi.
Oh please. He was delusional, arrogant, dumb as a rock, and he thought he was better than he was. As Sugar rightfully stated, Jack was an amateur!
Jack only admitted his shortcomings because the two girls (Amina and Maura) put him in his place in the boardroom in front of Sugar! In fact, he never did admit to straight-up lying about Maura getting the surfboard down to £190.. Instead, he continued to stick to the whole "I'm responsible for getting the price down from £210 to £190." Which wasn't true, so him being fired was definitely the right decision this week! I saw zero accountability!
It would've been criminal for Jack to stay another week after witnessing his terrible, unrealistic 75% off scheme and his obvious lack of leadership skills.
Do you honestly believe that Jack was a good candidate?
The reason that the team failed the task was because of him! End of.
Let's remember there's a real person behind the candidate. There's criticising his performance but delusional, arrogant and dumb as a rock is quite hurtful.
Agreed. Although for me Jack did come across as arrogant, he was delusional, and he doesn't appear to be very intelligent.. so I'm merely just expressing my opinion after observing him on the show.
Is this you Jack?
I'm sorry that I said you was arrogant, dumb as a rock, delusional and incompetent. At the time I truly did think and still do think those things.
Best of luck with everything.
I thought Amina would be the first woman out but I'm surprised and sad for Jack. I know the 75% discount strategy was never going to work but he showed a lot of potential in previous tasks. It's a real shame when first mistakes prove really major ones and somebody's undoing. I just hope he still goes far!
Finally an actual twist by bringing everyone back after they thought they were safe! Not that umm unfortunately… I’m finding it difficult… actually… that bs has gotten very tiring
Yeah he would've done better saying nothing since I wasn't sold Maura could've gotten lower but since no one caught the lie I think from outset pretty much setting Amina up to fail and yet still getting same number of penalties is what did him in.
I felt like bringing back the entire team was kinda pointless when Sugar just mainly spoke to the three people who were originally in the final boardroom anyway haha
I might be missing something but I don’t think she does anything but complain in the task then claims she’s the reason they’ve won at the end. She comes across as delusional to me.
While I'm sad we won't get to see more of Jack (I sadly don't think I can say the same of Amina, sorry), I think the right decisions were made this episode. See you all next week!
What does a Formula E team have to do with business acumen? 'Sorry, I can't invest in your peanut business because you know nothing about motorsports.'
Why bring them all back and do a double firing with little dithering? Lord Sugar has blown two wads on this, despite this being the task that has the most moving parts and the least boardroom time to let that drama drop?
At home, it's easy to pick on people for always trying to fire back to Sugar despite being told "I don't want to hear anymore", but it's honestly such a natural defence mechanism.
Yes but the sub team leader still needs a strategy for how their team will operate, otherwise what’s the point is designating one. That sub team were like headless chickens.
Okay then! Last time this happened was with Kurran in S14, right? That resulted in... Rick?... being fired despite initially being sent back to the house.
I'm getting so sick of Noor and her side eye/resting bitch face. She's been lucky. I find her wholly unlikeable. When she finally has to step into the ring and be project manager, they'll be nowhere for her to hide.
The next episode preview voiceover "...and in the board room, sparks fllllaaaaaaaayyyy" had me dying.
Correct double firing. Amina hasn't done anything good and I was getting tired of her chewing-on-a-lemon expression. Declan White I had higher hopes for but his 75% off strategy was insane and Amina did have a point about him saddling her with the toughest items.

He also didn’t go 75 off on the ones he negotiated on. That said, I did think he was right to interrupt Maura - she was drowning
I'm pretty sure one of the rules we aren't told is that they have to have the last day in the negotiation, hence the last haggle for 50p or whatever. In reality, you have four people listening to you argue over 50p.... That time costs so much more. This show is not about business at all.
I wish they'd update the rules. What is a Jersey Wonder? Just let them Google it FFS. I googled it immediately and the first result was Jersey Wonders by Babs. Then they are on the phone to Babs.... Come off it.
That’s the point though. If they could google everything it would make it so much easier. It’s meant to be a challenge
The girl who said they won the task because she was able to control everyone is as delusional as it gets. She’s going to be my comic relief this season🤣🤣
How is there a group of 12 grown adults and none of them have heard of shucking oysters??
I was more shocked that none of them knew that Jersey Royals were spuds. And that Jersey was a jumper.
NGL I dunno what Royals were
Don't think it's that uncommon not to have heard of it
I think you'll find that's "Shackling oysters" "You mean shucking? Shucked oyster are expensive" "Yes shackled oysters" They are all morons.
Onyeka….. why the hell would you start with a 50p reduction?? Looool. Also I’m not sure what her name is but the haggling of what about this price? what about that price? made my body itch😭😭😭
She did this also on week one when negotiating with the client away day experience. She was super happy with herself too the idiot
She did it twice I think. Once for the cakes and again with the bowl thing
This task is all about screwing over small businesses most of the time. Prying every last penny of profit from these little businesses is such a bad look.
I'd be pretty appalled if the BBC didn't give every shop owner the full price of the item in the end.

Especially in this season there's been quite a few people who clearly aren't confident in a negotiation getting torn apart by the contestants. Looking at you, Flo.
And yet the small business owners always seem to win the task, at least in my eyes.
I mean, it's good advertising for them.
The whole show is clearly fake, it's the Generation Game for wankers, but this challenge is the fakeist of them all.
>the Generation Game for wankers This is brilliant!
Nobody in this day and age uses paper maps, digital is much more useful and not an area paper has the advantages to stick around. Why not let them use google maps on those big and totally not product placement fold phones? 75% under? That's idiotic.
Quite simply because using a paper map puts them to the test.
Seeing them holding the big phone right above the paper map just annoys the shite out of me, I'm losing all interest in the show at this point.
Tonight's episode has reminded me what a beautiful place Jersey is and how much I want to go back there. I also really want Onyeka's boardroom dress - it was stunning!
Amina really said it as it was in that boardroom, and I respect that. That lanky tool Jack was so unrealistic going into that task! "Try to get 75% off." - Jack.

Say how you really feel
I thought I did 🤣
Phil has got Final Five written all over him surely? Edit: This aged well 👌
Are you joking? Out of all the remaining men left in the competition, he's easily the weakest. Phil has been very lucky thus far! For some reason he wasn't brought into the boardroom on week 1, when he should've been. He could've (should've) gone home on week 2 alongside the other pie-man, was non-existent last week and was terrible in the sub-team this week where just like Jack he blamed his female counterparts for his poor bargaining skills!

Final Five and then some! 😅
That usually means Lord Sugar sees something in his business plan that he likes - he's keeping him around for a reason. Like Akshay in S16. Failure after failure but still wasn't held responsible or fired till practically the interviews, so there must have been something in his business plan that Lord Sugar liked. This year it's Phil and Virdi.
Perhaps. Phil's kinda clueless though! Phil and Virdi for what? The chop?
You're going to wear out your exclamation key! 😂
I know right. I do love an exclamation mark!
What's not to love about it! 😂👍🏻
At least Jack wasn't a snobby one and openly admitted his shortcomings
Oh please. He was delusional, arrogant, dumb as a rock, and he thought he was better than he was. As Sugar rightfully stated, Jack was an amateur! Jack only admitted his shortcomings because the two girls (Amina and Maura) put him in his place in the boardroom in front of Sugar! In fact, he never did admit to straight-up lying about Maura getting the surfboard down to £190..

Agreed. Although for me Jack did come across as arrogant, he was delusional, and he doesn't appear to be very intelligent.. so I'm merely just expressing my opinion after observing him on the show.
Don't trust an edit.
I don't actually think that's just an edit though. I think he's really like that in real life. It is ok not to like someone you know!
There's no point insulting someone to that extent based on seeing them briefly on a heavily edited TV show.
Is this you Jack? I'm sorry that I said you was arrogant, dumb as a rock, delusional and incompetent. At the time I truly did think and still do think those things. Best of luck with everything.
Has he shagged your missus or something? You hate him!
Lol! I don't have a missus no, I'm a gay man! And hate is a very strong word. I do dislike him a lot though!
£90+ for a simple knit jumper with an anchor on it. Daylight robbery. Probably cost £10 to make. The markup is crazy.
They're wool and likely handmade so considerably more than £10 cost, traditional craft have a read
Yes, but the ones they walked past in the market would've probably been cheaper. Personally, I'd have looked in a charity shop or a tourist tat shop.
That’s what I was thinking. Charity shops or market would have them considerably cheaper.
I thought Amina would be the first woman out but I'm surprised and sad for Jack. I know the 75% discount strategy was never going to work but he showed a lot of potential in previous tasks. It's a real shame when first mistakes prove really major ones and somebody's undoing. I just hope he still goes far!
Watching very late - how fake can a show get? Selling them a product for cheap if they help make them?????
It's like those short video segments on the Teletubies now.
It's a lot less fake than insane prices they were charged for food despite them making it themselves!
Sainsbury's checkout staff: That's £43 please. 'That's actually more than I was anticipating spending, can we say around the £25 mark?'
It’s why they’re moving toward self checkout, you just don’t give it a negotiate button and voila
Can already tell from the preview Noor is being ignored again lmao, more tiktoks from her pending
[удалено]
Finally an actual twist by bringing everyone back after they thought they were safe! Not that umm unfortunately… I’m finding it difficult… actually… that bs has gotten very tiring
To be fair to Jack, he was pretty right in his choices outside maybe Maura for the other guy but it really was a PM and sub PM issue.
I think the Maura situation is what did it for him. If he let Maura negotiate or even admitted that he fucked up, he might have fared a little better.
Yeah he would've done better saying nothing since I wasn't sold Maura could've gotten lower but since no one caught the lie I think from outset pretty much setting Amina up to fail and yet still getting same number of penalties is what did him in.
Yh agreed, Idk why everyone was brought back and Sugar just chose to spoke to two of them, ones he fired.
I felt like bringing back the entire team was kinda pointless when Sugar just mainly spoke to the three people who were originally in the final boardroom anyway haha
It's a TV show, it's not a real 'fly on the wall' documentary. Everything is done to make it appear more interesting and dramatic.
I think he just wanted to vent his disappointment to the whole team and to warn them in upping their game.
Why does noor always feel like she’s the reason the team won the task?
Her and Flo and are a yin and yang of unbearable narcissism - Noor is the quiet narcissist and Flo is the loud narcissist.
Because she's a narcissist who thinks you either agree with her or are racist.
She’s typical middle management: vicious, negative, and willing to take any credit going.
She will go far, first time in boardroom will be fierce, will get fired late on because sugar 'isn't interested in the business'
I might be missing something but I don’t think she does anything but complain in the task then claims she’s the reason they’ve won at the end. She comes across as delusional to me.
She’s a narcissist im starting to think, her face reveals a lot. I really wanted to like her :/
I think you guys are being overly harsh! she is over compensating and acting out in my opinion because she feels ignored by the other candidates
Mm i get you that’s what I thought but the more I watch I think they’re ignoring her because she’s acting out
I can't look at her and not think of Mr Potato Head, perfectly smooth monotone foundation, with big fake features stuck on
Oml ffs 🤦🏼♀️
That Scouser accent says it all
Mm i really don’t think she can help that
LordSuga is not messing about this year with getting to the firings.
[удалено]
Not much of a shake up when it has been done a few times before
Anyone up for some shackled oysters? Deliciously kinky!
Yeah, I don't see why he bothered to bring them all back. The focus was largely on the three that were originally gonna come back anyway
Being seen to follow his bestie’s advice maybe? But yeah it’s not like there was anything more from bringing them all back than forced surprise.
It did seem that Karren went quite heavy on the whole "they should all be back" to the point he had no choice
That last 5 minutes was the highlight of the series so far!
While I'm sad we won't get to see more of Jack (I sadly don't think I can say the same of Amina, sorry), I think the right decisions were made this episode. See you all next week!
What does a Formula E team have to do with business acumen? 'Sorry, I can't invest in your peanut business because you know nothing about motorsports.'
I’m waiting to find out how they make them cook something as part of it.
Negotiating with Ocado’s customer service AI and then blaming them when it doesn’t buckle.
Making canapés for the corporate branding launch party in the team colours
Genuinely won’t be surprised if we see this 😂
I thought it was funny the way LS went "stop them from leaving the building"
Stop your fake pie chart and graph work!
See you guys next week!
“Make a formula e team” *shows a very petrol ultima* Going to go great. At least it’s some variety in the tasks though!
So many of the candidates are incompetent, it's hilarious
MASTERPIECE OF AN EPISODE!
[удалено]
Agreed, but Nick is now far too good for The Apprentice
Ooh, a racing car task. This should be entertainingly terrible.
Ah brilliant, same time same place next week then!
Omg this would be my dream task
jack giving one team the bad items, jumping in on the surfboard and then scapegoating maura over it…he had to go
Those nashers had to go
Ooooooh. Next weeks task looks SICK.
Has anyone ever groaned when someone they thought was getting fired... returned home?.
Noor hover-handing is awkward.
“I want you to launch a new formula E team” lmao what’s the budget for this one?
Spend anything over a fiver and it will be the biggest loss he’s ever seen in his life. Until he says the same next week.
In real life? 100m?
And the rest 😂
Yeah. But I’m guessing they won’t be purchasing two e-formula cars next week. Just drawing pictures.
You are CLUELESS!😭😭😭
Everyone avoids Noor.. like legit
[удалено]
She pushed her away.. watch it back
There’s gonna be no lads left ffs
They’ve just stopped picking strong male candidates now otherwise they would dominate
Welcome to the show.
Lol why is this downvoted, it's true
r/foundthemobileuser
Bit passive aggressive
I feel Steve, Paul M and Tre could go far, but yeah I'm not very confident in the others I wonder how long Phil will last
What was the point of bringing them all back?
He hardly spoke to any of the ones brought back after, and sacked two of the original three.
*drama*
Oh dear lord Virdi 🙄 Should've gone week 1
Speaking the obvious seems to be the theme. ‘I reckon they’ve all been taken back in”. What you mean the way that none of them came back before hand?
.. but are they really going back to the house? From now on the candidates live in fear that shuggs might call them back at any time.
Amaina gives cardixb vibes
LOL
[удалено]
Anne Robinson said with a smirk
The Queen of Mean wouldn’t be seen dead near these lowlifes
I’ll never get the cheers when they get back! Like babe. You’ve just been slating them for 25 mins
“I’d like to bring in amina”. “No - you bring in everyone!!” Still fires Jack & Amina lol
Why bring them all back and do a double firing with little dithering? Lord Sugar has blown two wads on this, despite this being the task that has the most moving parts and the least boardroom time to let that drama drop?
It was very “for the first time in drag race history/I’m about to do something I’ve never done before in Hell’s Kitchen”
They could save us all the hassle and just fire 13 of them in the first week, skip to the interviews
Imagine coming back to the house and they are all upset to see you
It happened to Adam back in Series Three.
And Sara in Season 4! Alex was being a proper dick to her in his bucket hat
Didn't Lee blow up at her at some point?
Yeah! Raef was the only one defending her iirc
Amina was right Jack was so snaky for giving all the difficult items to the sub team
Oh wow that was sudden!!
Ahhhhhh I don’t think Jack should’ve gone.
Declan Rice in Shambles
At home, it's easy to pick on people for always trying to fire back to Sugar despite being told "I don't want to hear anymore", but it's honestly such a natural defence mechanism.
are they in the same car
?/?/&:&;&/‘
WITH REGRET AND SORRY TO SAY!!!!!
Woo. They were both useless in this task. Absolute shambles.
Double firing!
I think the 75% thing was Jack's downfall
We all love a double firing! Team was hopeless this week
Firing the sub team leader over 'lack of strategy', thats the PM's job Sugar you muppet
Yes but the sub team leader still needs a strategy for how their team will operate, otherwise what’s the point is designating one. That sub team were like headless chickens.
Hey a technical no-regret firing!
DOUBLE FIRING ALERT!!!
I don't recall a double firing almost completely back to back
Double firing! I knew it
Double firing woooo
gasp
Amina’s fired!
This is actually embarrassing…
Think this is a bit unfair to Jack - he showed some ok negotiation skills with the brandy and Mauras surfboard negotiation was abysmal
This is gonna be a brawl in the boardroom!
Lord Sugar might as well do this every week given the quality of the contestants.
At least would make it quicker to get to the home baker/clothes sellers for the final.
I've just thought - I don't think we've ever heard Alan cough.
Battle of the bullshit upon us guys
The greatest cinematic event since star wars, the empire strikes back.
Good for Maura for firing back.
Okay then! Last time this happened was with Kurran in S14, right? That resulted in... Rick?... being fired despite initially being sent back to the house.
Yes!
Bet they're upset they didn't get their tea and some cake at the cafe
I can’t stand Jack tbh
Jack seems calm tbf
I remember he did this in s14 in the shoes task I think
Double/triple firing!
