Love the programme but you have, like all shows to remember, it's edited for dramatic purposes. they always portray one team as being in control and the other in disarray, then turn the tables, I suspect a lot of it is shown out of sequence as well.
I reckon they were only at the cider farm for half an hour or so but the editors loved them laughing and portrayed them as getting pissed.

I notice they tend to focus more on the losing team in each episode, and on the ones being brought back to the boardroom, which is why you hardly saw anything of Claire's team and the car saleswoman ( can't remember her name) became invisible.

Metro described Kevin as "Half man - half Pooh Bear" Geeenius.
I thought Lucinda did well as a manager but the "let's mix the teams up" decision showed she has no determination. She is fine when everything is nice, but the first sign of conflict and it's tears and flapping. she suggested they mix the teams up, and no-one disagreed, they just were silent and a bit grumpy. And she immediately reversed the decision. Can't see Alan Sugar going for that in the future.

Still loving the fact that Frances answers the phone as if she doesn't know who it will be?
"oh, hello, yes Sir Alan....."
Why is it never - "Hello, no, he's about to go into a board meeting, can I ask who is calling?
Surely, it's not a Studio set?
And WHY is it that the phone always goes off really early in the morning and no-one is up? If I was on that show iIwould want to be up nice and early to be ready for what the day was about to throw at you - instead of tearing around like a lunatic for 30minutes, and make sure I got the last of the Shredded Wheat.

Lums, I think she reversed her decision because she felt that everything was going well at that stage and they were all working well (though not necessarily together). Her suggestion introduced an element of unrest that I guess she thought might send things pear shaped.

I love the overhead shots of Canary Wharf, when it's really filmed in Neasden.

Because they all stay up late drinking and bitching about each other? How many days do you think there are between tasks? What do they do on their days off? It's obviously not working on their management skills.
