0:00:02 > 0:00:03You haven't used any of your skills,

0:00:03 > 0:00:06any of the things that you claim you're experts in.

0:00:06 > 0:00:09A disgusting result. I don't want to hear anything more from you.

0:00:09 > 0:00:10You're fired.

0:00:10 > 0:00:11You're fired.

0:00:11 > 0:00:13You're fired.

0:00:13 > 0:00:15APPLAUSE

0:00:19 > 0:00:21CHEERING Thank you very much!

0:00:21 > 0:00:23Thank you, good evening. I'm Jack Dee.

0:00:23 > 0:00:25Welcome to The Apprentice: You're Fired!

0:00:25 > 0:00:29This week, the candidates organised two children's parties

0:00:29 > 0:00:32and Selina realised straight away she had a dilemma.

0:00:32 > 0:00:34I don't have children and I don't like them.

0:00:34 > 0:00:37Well, that's sorted then - book some clowns.

0:00:37 > 0:00:40Gary showed off his expert knowledge of how the human body works.

0:00:40 > 0:00:43Not only was it the lost revenue of just under £200,

0:00:43 > 0:00:46he left a sour taste in the client's eye at the end of the day.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48LAUGHTER

0:00:48 > 0:00:50Just don't ask to look at his elbow.

0:00:50 > 0:00:53And in the boardroom, Joseph showed off his knowledge

0:00:53 > 0:00:55of the crazy '90s rave scene.

0:00:55 > 0:00:56A glowstick is a glowstick.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58There's not an amazing-quality glowstick

0:00:58 > 0:00:59or a poor-quality glowstick.

0:00:59 > 0:01:02A glowstick is a glowstick.

0:01:02 > 0:01:05LAUGHTER It's going to be an all-nighter.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08Joining me on tonight's exclusive, invitation-only guest list,

0:01:08 > 0:01:09our honoured guests,

0:01:09 > 0:01:12CEO of Quintessentially Events, Anabel Fielding,

0:01:12 > 0:01:14life and soul of the party, Gabby Logan,

0:01:14 > 0:01:17and his name wasn't down but he still got in, Romesh Ranganathan.

0:01:17 > 0:01:19Welcome to You're Fired!

0:01:19 > 0:01:21APPLAUSE

0:01:25 > 0:01:26So in tonight's task,

0:01:26 > 0:01:29one candidate was hoping that the fun would go on and on,

0:01:29 > 0:01:32but, in fact, for him, it was "de-party" time.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34MIXED CHUCKLES AND GROANS

0:01:34 > 0:01:37I take full responsibility for the pun,

0:01:37 > 0:01:41but I hope you'll agree that everything else has been spot-on.

0:01:41 > 0:01:45David, I do believe that today you have a lot to answer to.

0:01:45 > 0:01:49£175 wasted on these T-shirts.

0:01:49 > 0:01:50I wish you well,

0:01:50 > 0:01:54but I have concluded that you are not going to be my business partner.

0:01:54 > 0:01:58- You're fired.- Thank you very much for the opportunity, Lord Sugar.

0:02:03 > 0:02:05Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome David Stevenson.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:02:09 > 0:02:11Please.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17- David.- Hello.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20Good to have you on the show. Very popular, from the reaction there.

0:02:20 > 0:02:24- It's a bit overwhelming, to be fair. - Yeah?

0:02:24 > 0:02:26Well, you made it to week eight, which is fantastic.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29You can say, "I've been there, done that, got the T-shirt..."

0:02:29 > 0:02:33- Literally!- Sorry, I didn't mean to mention the T-shirt.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35- On the whole, has it been a good experience?- Absolutely.

0:02:35 > 0:02:38When I first went into the process,

0:02:38 > 0:02:40I wanted, obviously, to win the show.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43Unfortunately, I didn't, but just to get as far as I did,

0:02:43 > 0:02:45I learned so much and I've met some great people.

0:02:45 > 0:02:47You said in the taxi that you felt in the boardroom

0:02:47 > 0:02:49- that you'd been ganged up on.- Yes.

0:02:49 > 0:02:53And that the whole mood of the teams had changed

0:02:53 > 0:02:55and had become very cut-throat.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57Because Gary couldn't make a decision,

0:02:57 > 0:02:58he didn't know who to bring back in.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00The easiest thing for Joseph and Charleine

0:03:00 > 0:03:03was just to keep attacking me, but you know what?

0:03:03 > 0:03:05That's business. It happens in life.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07When you commented about Joseph to Charleine,

0:03:07 > 0:03:10what about Charleine's previous behaviour made you think

0:03:10 > 0:03:11she'd keep that a secret?

0:03:11 > 0:03:13LAUGHTER

0:03:15 > 0:03:17I guess hindsight's a wonderful thing.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20You know, you had some very difficult customers to please in this task.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22Let's have a look at how you got on.

0:03:22 > 0:03:24The big loss was obviously the T-shirts, which was £175.

0:03:24 > 0:03:27A lot of people are going to point the finger at myself.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29That one's not come out very well at all.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31In terms of the eight that I managed to do,

0:03:31 > 0:03:34- the pictures did actually come out. - But he wasn't going to buy eight

0:03:34 > 0:03:35when he had ten kids.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38Two bags of sweets, two balloons, a water pistol

0:03:38 > 0:03:39and a pair of sunglasses in each one.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42I would definitely pay £9 now for one of these bags.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45I can't see more than £5 value in those bags.

0:03:45 > 0:03:47If we've got to lead these activities in the morning,

0:03:47 > 0:03:49you're going to need a professional to do it and, frankly,

0:03:49 > 0:03:51I am that professional.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54We want to have as much fun as we can today as we possibly can,

0:03:54 > 0:03:55but I'll also stress as well

0:03:55 > 0:03:57that we have a no-running policy around here as well.

0:03:57 > 0:04:00Can I get you to slow down, please? Don't move anywhere. Thank you.

0:04:00 > 0:04:02It was supposed to be about fun.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04It sounded to me like an Ofsted inspection.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09On your marks! Get set! Walk.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11LAUGHTER What surprises me, David,

0:04:11 > 0:04:12is that right from the beginning,

0:04:12 > 0:04:15- everyone identified you as the fun one.- Yeah.

0:04:15 > 0:04:17Then you get put in charge of a children's party,

0:04:17 > 0:04:19you turn into a probation officer.

0:04:19 > 0:04:20What went wrong there?

0:04:20 > 0:04:23The problem is Gary.

0:04:23 > 0:04:25- Gary's fault?- It's Gary's fault.- Why?

0:04:25 > 0:04:27The thing is with Gary,

0:04:27 > 0:04:30he's very corporate and I don't think he's that fun as a person,

0:04:30 > 0:04:33to be fair, so what it came down to, I had to be fun,

0:04:33 > 0:04:36but professional at the same time

0:04:36 > 0:04:38and it was hard to basically marry the two.

0:04:38 > 0:04:42So you've done a course in, what is it, rope climbing?

0:04:42 > 0:04:45Yeah, I did high ropes and low ropes when I was...

0:04:45 > 0:04:47Where do you do a course like that?

0:04:47 > 0:04:48Across the pond.

0:04:48 > 0:04:51- Why do you...? - In America, it was pretty fun.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54OK, right. And what are you qualified to do, in fact, with that?

0:04:54 > 0:04:58So I'm qualified to lead groups of people,

0:04:58 > 0:05:00team building, leading activities,

0:05:00 > 0:05:02but also a low ropes course, high ropes course.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04You name it, I can do it.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07It's amazing that you did both high and low,

0:05:07 > 0:05:11cos some people just do low ropes and they're next to useless.

0:05:11 > 0:05:14- This guy's thorough.- It's good. - He knows his ropes.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16LAUGHTER

0:05:16 > 0:05:19Gabby, would your children have enjoyed a party like this?

0:05:19 > 0:05:21Not at all, no. You're 26.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24It wasn't that long ago you were going to children's parties,

0:05:24 > 0:05:26so did you...?

0:05:26 > 0:05:29Just last year you attended loads of them, didn't you?

0:05:29 > 0:05:33Did you not tap back into your inner child at any point there?

0:05:33 > 0:05:35I was a boring child.

0:05:35 > 0:05:37- LAUGHTER - What was your idea of fun as a child?

0:05:37 > 0:05:42- My idea of fun? I love ropes courses...- We know that!

0:05:42 > 0:05:44LAUGHTER

0:05:44 > 0:05:48You're into your ropes and you went to America and did a course in ropes,

0:05:48 > 0:05:52which is further than most of us go with ropes.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55It was quite edge-of-the-seat stuff, cos I was watching it thinking,

0:05:55 > 0:05:57"God, when is he going to mention the gaps in that wood?

0:05:57 > 0:05:59- "Oh, thank God." - LAUGHTER

0:06:00 > 0:06:02Anabel, your events,

0:06:02 > 0:06:04everyone going there, they're expecting fun,

0:06:04 > 0:06:05they want to have a great time,

0:06:05 > 0:06:08they're very excited, but you have to keep them safe as well,

0:06:08 > 0:06:10so given that that's the case, David,

0:06:10 > 0:06:12was he right to try and keep them safe?

0:06:12 > 0:06:14They're kids, after all.

0:06:14 > 0:06:16Of course, he's ultimately responsible,

0:06:16 > 0:06:17but in the party planning business,

0:06:17 > 0:06:20you want to indulge people's imagination,

0:06:20 > 0:06:23you don't want to say no, you want to create some dreams,

0:06:23 > 0:06:27but the reality is, when it gets to too many health and safety concerns,

0:06:27 > 0:06:29you do start to lose the fun of the party.

0:06:29 > 0:06:33You did try to cheer the kids up on the bus, didn't you? The sing-along?

0:06:33 > 0:06:36When I worked at this low ropes course...

0:06:36 > 0:06:38Was it hands together, it went like that?

0:06:38 > 0:06:41- HE RAPS IN AMERICAN ACCENT:- # I'm going to teach you a brand-new dance

0:06:41 > 0:06:43# It's not complicated, it's not too hard

0:06:43 > 0:06:45# You can even do it in your own back yard

0:06:45 > 0:06:48# You put your left hand out, you're coming around

0:06:48 > 0:06:50# You're going to pull it back and twist it around

0:06:50 > 0:06:52# And go boom, boom, boom. #

0:06:52 > 0:06:54That is catchy, yeah.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56APPLAUSE

0:06:57 > 0:06:59Let's move on to the T-shirts.

0:06:59 > 0:07:03- Yeah.- Now, you said yourself you've only just learned to iron.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06I still can't iron.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08When you say you've just learned to iron,

0:07:08 > 0:07:11do people learn to iron? I don't remember learning to iron.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14- In the house...- You see an iron, you know what to do with it.

0:07:14 > 0:07:17Did you go to America to do a course in ironing?

0:07:17 > 0:07:18The thing is, right...

0:07:20 > 0:07:22Do you know how you do ironing?

0:07:22 > 0:07:24- HE RAPS:- # You take the iron there

0:07:24 > 0:07:25# You put it on the shirt... #

0:07:25 > 0:07:28LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:07:31 > 0:07:33- SHE RAPS:- # And then you boom, boom, boom... #

0:07:33 > 0:07:35LAUGHTER

0:07:40 > 0:07:41What about...?

0:07:41 > 0:07:43LAUGHTER CONTINUES

0:07:43 > 0:07:45What about the party bags?

0:07:45 > 0:07:49Now, they were a real bone of contention between everyone

0:07:49 > 0:07:51on the team and you were adamant

0:07:51 > 0:07:53- that people wouldn't pay that much for them.- That's right.

0:07:53 > 0:07:55But then you didn't help much by taking things out.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58You took the glowsticks out before they'd even got to them.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00Yeah, I knew that the customer wasn't going to buy them,

0:08:00 > 0:08:04so I felt that the easiest way to do it

0:08:04 > 0:08:05was, I guess, force the sale upon them

0:08:05 > 0:08:08by getting them to play with them, getting them to use them.

0:08:08 > 0:08:10- It's not the right tactic.- OK.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13Well, at the centre of Team Versatile's troubles this week

0:08:13 > 0:08:15was project manager Gary.

0:08:15 > 0:08:16Let's have a look at how he did.

0:08:18 > 0:08:21Gary, you want to start an events company.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24I'm going to suggest that you are the project manager again.

0:08:24 > 0:08:25Is there any no-nos?

0:08:25 > 0:08:27I've got a nut allergy.

0:08:27 > 0:08:28It's a very severe allergy.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30There was an issue with the cake, wasn't there?

0:08:30 > 0:08:32In the chocolate cake there's a chocolate spread

0:08:32 > 0:08:34and it says it may contain nuts.

0:08:35 > 0:08:40Gary, I think this is so serious that you need to phone your team.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43It just said, "May contain nuts."

0:08:43 > 0:08:44Gary, could we just have a word

0:08:44 > 0:08:48- and get that thing sorted out with the cake?- Yep.

0:08:48 > 0:08:50- KARREN:- The whole point of being a party planner

0:08:50 > 0:08:52is that you take the stress away

0:08:52 > 0:08:56of organising a party and doing the food from the parents.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59You knocked 100 quid off for that stupid, stupid mistake.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02You wouldn't want to go into an events business with him,

0:09:02 > 0:09:05having watched that party. I can assure you it was bad.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07I don't know about you -

0:09:07 > 0:09:10I'm getting fed up with Karren beating about the bush.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12Anabel, in terms of party planning,

0:09:12 > 0:09:16what did Gary do wrong? Remember, we only have half an hour.

0:09:16 > 0:09:20Fundamentally, he lost the trust and confidence from his client.

0:09:20 > 0:09:24Then he actually lied to his client about something very important,

0:09:24 > 0:09:26which you just shouldn't be doing

0:09:26 > 0:09:28and I think he just didn't have control of the team.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31Gabby, would you employ Gary to...?

0:09:31 > 0:09:33No, there's nothing about Gary that says,

0:09:33 > 0:09:37"You're going to have a great time with me." I'm sure...

0:09:37 > 0:09:39LAUGHTER

0:09:39 > 0:09:44Listen, Gary, he always delivers. That's what we know about Gary.

0:09:44 > 0:09:48One catastrophe that you weren't directly involved in was the cake,

0:09:48 > 0:09:52which may or may not have potentially killed the client.

0:09:52 > 0:09:55Anabel, that's got to be chapter one, page one

0:09:55 > 0:09:58of How To Organise A Successful Event - food allergies!

0:09:58 > 0:10:01It is more and more, actually, yes.

0:10:01 > 0:10:03Both children and adults alike.

0:10:03 > 0:10:05In anything... In fact, actually,

0:10:05 > 0:10:08what anyone suggests at the beginning is a no-no,

0:10:08 > 0:10:10that goes straight to the top of the list.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12You have to make sure that that's one or two things

0:10:12 > 0:10:14that are attended to immediately.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16Let's get to the bottom of this -

0:10:16 > 0:10:19who do we think was most to blame for the cake disaster?

0:10:19 > 0:10:22Was it Joseph, Charleine or Gary, do we think?

0:10:22 > 0:10:24I think Gary is very much to blame for this

0:10:24 > 0:10:26in terms of the way he communicated.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29Once the dad had actually seen the packaging,

0:10:29 > 0:10:30he was totally happy with it,

0:10:30 > 0:10:32so that means that there wasn't a problem,

0:10:32 > 0:10:34but they felt there was a problem

0:10:34 > 0:10:36because of the way Gary put that message across,

0:10:36 > 0:10:38and then they lost faith in the whole party process,

0:10:38 > 0:10:40because he'd made it stressful.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43The client was very concerned in front of his wife

0:10:43 > 0:10:45about it not containing nuts,

0:10:45 > 0:10:48but when she wasn't there and they showed him the jar

0:10:48 > 0:10:50that said, "May contain nuts," he said,

0:10:50 > 0:10:52"Oh, that'll be all right."

0:10:52 > 0:10:53LAUGHTER

0:10:55 > 0:10:57I think that Joseph and Charleine,

0:10:57 > 0:11:00- it shouldn't have gone any further than them.- Mm-hm.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02"May contain nuts," hello?!

0:11:02 > 0:11:04But speaking of Charleine,

0:11:04 > 0:11:07do we want to see that boardroom moment again?

0:11:07 > 0:11:09LAUGHTER

0:11:09 > 0:11:11I'm going to bring David and Joseph back in.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14- CHARLEINE:- Good luck, boys. - CLAUDE:- Where are you going?

0:11:21 > 0:11:23Oh, God, has it finished, has it finished?

0:11:23 > 0:11:26David, what was it like being in the boardroom at that moment?

0:11:26 > 0:11:28I thought I'd won the lottery.

0:11:28 > 0:11:30I thought I was going to get off scot-free.

0:11:30 > 0:11:31Talk about team player.

0:11:31 > 0:11:34As soon as the others... "See you later, mate."

0:11:34 > 0:11:36LAUGHTER

0:11:36 > 0:11:38Considering there are only four of you in your team,

0:11:38 > 0:11:41there was a lot of friction there and I have to say,

0:11:41 > 0:11:44I think that some of it was due to Charleine. A little bit, anyway.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46Throughout the tasks,

0:11:46 > 0:11:50there's a lot of people who have been good at one particular thing.

0:11:50 > 0:11:52Joe, for example, is a very strong salesperson,

0:11:52 > 0:11:56but I think there's other things that he hasn't proved yet.

0:11:56 > 0:11:59David, in the morning, he was pinpointing people

0:11:59 > 0:12:02that he thinks need to prove themselves

0:12:02 > 0:12:03and one of those he mentioned was yourself.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05What does he think he adds each week?

0:12:05 > 0:12:07Cos I don't think he adds a great deal, to be fair.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10All I'm saying is, glowsticks and glasses is pathetic.

0:12:10 > 0:12:15He was pissed because all the T-shirts were...shit.

0:12:15 > 0:12:16Cheers, Joseph.

0:12:16 > 0:12:18Stir it up, stir it up. LAUGHTER

0:12:20 > 0:12:23Let's move on to the winning team, Team Conexus,

0:12:23 > 0:12:26and quickly remind ourselves of how the two birthday parties compared.

0:12:26 > 0:12:28MUSIC: Agadoo by Black Lace

0:12:28 > 0:12:31On your marks, get set, GO!

0:12:31 > 0:12:33THEY WHOOP AND GIGGLE

0:12:33 > 0:12:35A few rules before we start the game.

0:12:35 > 0:12:38You are not allowed to go round the back.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40MUSIC: Agadoo

0:12:40 > 0:12:41Yes!

0:12:41 > 0:12:43You are not allowed to climb to the top.

0:12:43 > 0:12:45MUSIC: Agadoo

0:12:45 > 0:12:47OK, go! Go! Go!

0:12:47 > 0:12:50I also need to point your attention to these gaps

0:12:50 > 0:12:52in the wood as well, OK?

0:12:52 > 0:12:54It can be very dangerous if we get our fingers in there.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57- MUSIC: Agadoo - Party bus!

0:12:59 > 0:13:01THEY WHOOP

0:13:01 > 0:13:02- Did you like that? - FORCEFULLY:- No.

0:13:02 > 0:13:04LAUGHTER

0:13:04 > 0:13:07Yeah, those glowsticks come in handy, don't they?

0:13:07 > 0:13:10Cos you can strangle yourself with them if you've had enough.

0:13:10 > 0:13:12Anabel, what did Team Conexus do right,

0:13:12 > 0:13:14did you feel, when you watched that?

0:13:14 > 0:13:17I think they just got it, they just identified a bit better

0:13:17 > 0:13:20with the birthday girl and it was a bit more appropriate,

0:13:20 > 0:13:24a bit more fun. As I said, a little bit more appropriate

0:13:24 > 0:13:25for what she wanted to do.

0:13:25 > 0:13:29Yeah, I think Brett and Scott really threw themselves into it, though.

0:13:29 > 0:13:30There was no holds barred there.

0:13:30 > 0:13:32They kind of repaired their relationship after last week

0:13:32 > 0:13:35and they appealed, I think, to those young girls as well.

0:13:35 > 0:13:37They connected quite well.

0:13:37 > 0:13:40The girls liked them, they were being fun, so...

0:13:40 > 0:13:44The other thing is, kids have got very short attention spans.

0:13:44 > 0:13:47You have to minimise the amount of actual instruction

0:13:47 > 0:13:48and talking you do to them.

0:13:48 > 0:13:51With those guys, the dodge ball, you just explain it

0:13:51 > 0:13:52and then they're off,

0:13:52 > 0:13:54whereas you, obviously, it was...

0:13:54 > 0:13:56- it was longer. - LAUGHTER

0:13:56 > 0:13:59You're sort of losing them from the offset there.

0:13:59 > 0:14:02They had their own party bag controversies as well, of course,

0:14:02 > 0:14:04Selina deciding to go ahead

0:14:04 > 0:14:06and buy the bags without the client's consent,

0:14:06 > 0:14:08not knowing if she'd be able to sell them.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10Was that wise, or did you think that was shrewd?

0:14:10 > 0:14:11That was the classic moment,

0:14:11 > 0:14:14when she was sitting on the sofa going, "But we've bought them!"

0:14:14 > 0:14:17"But I don't want them." "But we've bought them."

0:14:17 > 0:14:20I'm in favour of party bags as a rule, just in terms of,

0:14:20 > 0:14:23they are a clear signal to the children that it's time to leave.

0:14:23 > 0:14:24LAUGHTER

0:14:24 > 0:14:26Last year at my elder son's birthday,

0:14:26 > 0:14:28I brought them out 15 minutes in.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30I thought, "I can't be bothered with this any more.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32"It's party bag time - just get the hell out."

0:14:32 > 0:14:35Selina was trying to give a fabulous party.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38At the same time, behind the scenes,

0:14:38 > 0:14:40Richard was trying to keep the spending down.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Did he overdo that? Was he being a bit stingy

0:14:42 > 0:14:44and a bit mean, did you feel?

0:14:44 > 0:14:46Well, I think it was important to keep an eye on the cost,

0:14:46 > 0:14:48but, yes, I think there was certain things

0:14:48 > 0:14:51about the experience of it, particularly for the kids,

0:14:51 > 0:14:53that a bit of glitter and a bit of something would have gone

0:14:53 > 0:14:56an awfully long way and I think he probably got his...

0:14:56 > 0:15:00You know, I think perhaps he got his objectives a little bit muddled up.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Well, Selina did say in the boardroom

0:15:02 > 0:15:05that she was glad Richard was there to keep things in check

0:15:05 > 0:15:08and she did personally pick him to be on her team,

0:15:08 > 0:15:11not that Richard would let a thing like that go to his head.

0:15:11 > 0:15:12Hello!

0:15:12 > 0:15:13Hello, super sub team.

0:15:13 > 0:15:16I'm the figures man, so I'm just going to tell you the facts.

0:15:16 > 0:15:18Barbecued food - cheap.

0:15:18 > 0:15:20Sub team extraordinaire?

0:15:20 > 0:15:21Yo, yo, yo!

0:15:21 > 0:15:23- Super sub team? - 'Hi, guys!'

0:15:23 > 0:15:25Let's keep it simple.

0:15:25 > 0:15:28You're breaking my heart, you're breaking my heart at that level.

0:15:28 > 0:15:29Stop spending money.

0:15:29 > 0:15:33I'd smash that kitchen on my own, I'm more than happy to do that.

0:15:33 > 0:15:34OK!

0:15:34 > 0:15:35Might put my feet up!

0:15:35 > 0:15:38# You're the best around... #

0:15:38 > 0:15:40According to Claude, Vana was a bit like a slave.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42I don't want any help, honestly.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45I don't even understand - I've got everything sorted with the cake.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48You won it due to Richard's stinginess.

0:15:50 > 0:15:53I can't even remember what it's like to lose.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55- VANA:- Richard, you're the worst.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57LAUGHTER

0:15:57 > 0:16:02Gabby, Claude mentioned that Richard was treating Vana like a slave.

0:16:02 > 0:16:05Would you have been happy with Richard as your boss?

0:16:05 > 0:16:09If they had lost the task, I think it could have backfired on Vana,

0:16:09 > 0:16:10because she didn't stand up to him

0:16:10 > 0:16:13and she did appear to be very subservient to him

0:16:13 > 0:16:16- and I wanted her to be a bit more assertive.- Yes.

0:16:16 > 0:16:18She's obviously a clever woman, she knows her own mind,

0:16:18 > 0:16:20I'm sure she's also quite frugal

0:16:20 > 0:16:22and quite able to work figures out herself

0:16:22 > 0:16:25and see if they were overspending and she just seemed to be there.

0:16:25 > 0:16:29- She did end up looking like she was his skivvy, really.- Yes.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31You've experienced Richard as your project manager

0:16:31 > 0:16:33- in the shampoo task.- Yes.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35- Was it frustrating? - He was an irritant.- Was he?

0:16:35 > 0:16:37The thing is with Richard,

0:16:37 > 0:16:40the way that he delegated all the roles,

0:16:40 > 0:16:43he didn't actually do anything himself in the shampoo task

0:16:43 > 0:16:45and then to take the credit for everything,

0:16:45 > 0:16:47I thought was very much unfair. The thing is with Richard,

0:16:47 > 0:16:50he's trying to be very manipulative around a lot of situations.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52He's saying the right things to the right people

0:16:52 > 0:16:54at the right time sometimes,

0:16:54 > 0:16:57but then sometimes he's pushing the boundaries a little bit.

0:16:57 > 0:16:59Richard's a dark horse. He's playing a game.

0:16:59 > 0:17:01Is he? Ooh.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04You heard it here first.

0:17:04 > 0:17:08The thing is about Richard is his behaviour is not great,

0:17:08 > 0:17:11- the way he conducts himself, but he keeps winning.- Mm.

0:17:11 > 0:17:14I have never wanted so much someone to have a loss.

0:17:14 > 0:17:18He needs to be defeated in a horrible, crushing way,

0:17:18 > 0:17:21where he's just crying, naked in the boardroom,

0:17:21 > 0:17:24just begging for his life or whatever.

0:17:24 > 0:17:28He needs that, and then after that, he'll be bearable as a human being.

0:17:28 > 0:17:31So what you're proposing - a kind of extreme Apprentice,

0:17:31 > 0:17:35- where...- Yeah, just for one. We need to keep Richard in check, so...- OK.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38One of the really simple things, which he hasn't got enough,

0:17:38 > 0:17:41he hasn't been lambasted enough about is the catering.

0:17:41 > 0:17:43The food ran really late.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45That usually makes everyone really grumpy.

0:17:45 > 0:17:46Everyone will know that,

0:17:46 > 0:17:48and he didn't seem to get enough stick for that.

0:17:48 > 0:17:52Plus, he was so cocky about being on top of that cake

0:17:52 > 0:17:54and the cake was crap.

0:17:54 > 0:17:55It looked dreadful.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58They messed up the icing, "Just throw a load of marshmallows at it."

0:17:58 > 0:18:01He said, "I can put my feet up now," and he hadn't got the glitter

0:18:01 > 0:18:04so I think he got away with it this week.

0:18:04 > 0:18:06Is he emerging as the Teflon candidate?

0:18:06 > 0:18:08He just gets away with everything, doesn't he?

0:18:08 > 0:18:11- A bit. - What are your thoughts on that?

0:18:11 > 0:18:13As much as he is annoying, he's brilliant as well.

0:18:13 > 0:18:16- Yeah?- He's annoyingly brilliant.

0:18:16 > 0:18:17- Is he?- It's really frustrating.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20LAUGHTER

0:18:20 > 0:18:22- Well... GABBY:- Do you recognise that, Jack?

0:18:22 > 0:18:24Yes, yes, something I've lived with all my life.

0:18:24 > 0:18:26LAUGHTER

0:18:26 > 0:18:29As we know, this series Romesh has been investigating

0:18:29 > 0:18:32what it might be like to be an Apprentice candidate.

0:18:32 > 0:18:34What have you been looking at this week?

0:18:34 > 0:18:38Well, I sort of felt that this task is something I could lend myself to.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40I've got three children, I'm very fond of two of them

0:18:40 > 0:18:42- and I thought that... - LAUGHTER

0:18:42 > 0:18:44..for that reason, I could organise a children's party

0:18:44 > 0:18:47and I felt like I really connected with the kids

0:18:47 > 0:18:49and just threw a really nice shindig.

0:18:49 > 0:18:51Let's have a look at that, then.

0:18:51 > 0:18:53What would you like for your birthday party?

0:18:53 > 0:18:55I want a unicorn.

0:18:55 > 0:18:57A unicorn? Listen, I can't do you a unicorn.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00What I can do is stick an ice cream cone on a horse.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02LAUGHTER

0:19:02 > 0:19:05Look, I'm going to teach you a valuable life lesson now.

0:19:05 > 0:19:07Lower your expectations.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10Guys, I present to you...

0:19:10 > 0:19:12Mr Tumble!

0:19:12 > 0:19:13No, it's not Mr Tumble.

0:19:13 > 0:19:14Romesh the Clown.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17Had a slight mishap with the cake.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19- Oh,- BLEEP!

0:19:19 > 0:19:21It's Romesh here from Team Romesh.

0:19:21 > 0:19:24I'm just wondering if you could source me a birthday cake.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27Why don't we all play "sitting quietly on the floor"?

0:19:27 > 0:19:30CHILD YELLS

0:19:30 > 0:19:33Romesh the Clown's had enough now, guys.

0:19:33 > 0:19:35BLEEP.

0:19:35 > 0:19:37Right, guys, we're going to play hide and seek in here,

0:19:37 > 0:19:39but only in this room.

0:19:39 > 0:19:41Don't even get me started on hide and seek.

0:19:41 > 0:19:42I've lost one of the kids.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45I've actually lost one of the kids.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48And I think I accidentally swore in front of one of the kids.

0:19:48 > 0:19:50- Mummy, what does- BLEEP- mean?

0:19:50 > 0:19:52- LAUGHTER - This isn't fun.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54I'm going to be calling all of your parents.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56All in all, I think I've thrown a good party.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58I think the client will pay me for what I've done.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01- Excuse me, did you call my daughter a- BLEEP?

0:20:01 > 0:20:02Uh...

0:20:02 > 0:20:06- I was, uh...- Are you going home?

0:20:06 > 0:20:07I think I might be, yeah.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11APPLAUSE

0:20:11 > 0:20:15- Romesh, that was horrendous.- Well, no, I don't think it's horrendous.

0:20:15 > 0:20:17I connected with the children.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20There are certain things I couldn't do because I had to leave.

0:20:20 > 0:20:21LAUGHTER

0:20:21 > 0:20:26I did do a party bag. I avoided your mistake, it's not see-through.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28I'll show you what I've got in here.

0:20:28 > 0:20:32I've got a little bit of cake, because, basically,

0:20:32 > 0:20:36you get stuck with cake, don't you? So I put a bit of cake in there.

0:20:36 > 0:20:40Then I thought, well, kids often have a lot of sugar at parties

0:20:40 > 0:20:43and you want to chill them out at the end of the day,

0:20:43 > 0:20:45so I put a bottle of whisky in there...

0:20:45 > 0:20:47- LAUGHTER - ..just as a little snifter,

0:20:47 > 0:20:51just to relax and chill them out. I use that with my second one a lot.

0:20:51 > 0:20:55And also, a little toy, entertainment, a lighter.

0:20:55 > 0:20:57- LAUGHTER - Kids love setting fire to things.

0:20:57 > 0:21:00You had glowsticks, you can make anything glow with this.

0:21:00 > 0:21:01LAUGHTER

0:21:01 > 0:21:06And finally, I included a free copy of my own publication,

0:21:06 > 0:21:07Santa Isn't Real.

0:21:07 > 0:21:09LAUGHTER

0:21:09 > 0:21:11Well, Christmas is coming up,

0:21:11 > 0:21:14so I'm sure bookings for Romesh the Clown will come flooding in.

0:21:14 > 0:21:16Now, David,

0:21:16 > 0:21:19although you took a bit of criticism on this week's task,

0:21:19 > 0:21:22over the process, you have had a reputation for being the most

0:21:22 > 0:21:25enthusiastic person probably ever on The Apprentice, which is

0:21:25 > 0:21:29why we were so pleased to find this unseen footage.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31David is entertainment.

0:21:31 > 0:21:34DISCO MUSIC PLAYS

0:21:35 > 0:21:38# He's the greatest dancer... #

0:21:38 > 0:21:39Oh! Oh! Oh!

0:21:39 > 0:21:42# That I've ever seen. #

0:21:42 > 0:21:46David will do anything, dancing, singing or even rapping.

0:21:46 > 0:21:47# ..It makes me want to twitch.

0:21:47 > 0:21:49# Creeping over me just like an itch. #

0:21:49 > 0:21:51If he's any good, that's a separate question,

0:21:51 > 0:21:53but ten out of ten for commitment.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57ALL EXCLAIM

0:21:57 > 0:22:00- Oh, David... - Fucking hell!

0:22:00 > 0:22:02- Oh, my God... - LOUD THUD

0:22:02 > 0:22:04LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:22:08 > 0:22:12Now, that might look dangerous, but in fairness, he wasn't running.

0:22:12 > 0:22:16So, David, we first became aware of your enthusiasm,

0:22:16 > 0:22:20your excitability, if you will, during the shampoo task.

0:22:20 > 0:22:22But it really served you best

0:22:22 > 0:22:25when you were the project manager for the pet show task.

0:22:25 > 0:22:28So tell us about that. Were you pleased with how that went?

0:22:28 > 0:22:29Yeah, absolutely.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32One of the best things to do is to be as enthusiastic as you can to get the products you want.

0:22:32 > 0:22:37And I made sure that my team was going to deliver. I wanted that.

0:22:37 > 0:22:38And overall I'm really happy.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41Anabel, David had a lot of praise for this task.

0:22:41 > 0:22:45Schmoozing the client, is that always a good thing or sometimes can that backfire?

0:22:45 > 0:22:46It depends who the client is.

0:22:46 > 0:22:49Lots of clients don't want to be schmoozed at all,

0:22:49 > 0:22:52they just want you to get on and do your job.

0:22:52 > 0:22:55But let's face it, you're in a people service business -

0:22:55 > 0:22:57you have to have charisma.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59You've got to have some charm. You've got to bring things to life.

0:22:59 > 0:23:02- I think you did a really good job. - Thank you.

0:23:02 > 0:23:06I thought your gerbil T-shirt enthusiasm was terrifying.

0:23:06 > 0:23:08LAUGHTER

0:23:08 > 0:23:11The thing is, you open yourself to have the mickey taken

0:23:11 > 0:23:15out of you in that regard because you're so over the top enthusiastic,

0:23:15 > 0:23:18but actually it's a tool at your disposal, so it is a good thing.

0:23:18 > 0:23:20- Thank you.- Seeing you here now, as well, you can see that you take

0:23:20 > 0:23:23stuff on board and you're very aware of your environment.

0:23:23 > 0:23:27So I think your enthusiasm will only stand you in good stead.

0:23:27 > 0:23:30Yeah, that's really nice words to hear.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33Did you actually really like the guinea pig T-shirt?

0:23:33 > 0:23:34No.

0:23:34 > 0:23:36LAUGHTER

0:23:37 > 0:23:41- Well we know, sadly, Lord Sugar isn't going to invest in your business plan.- Yep.

0:23:41 > 0:23:44Let's look at the advice he's got for you for your future.

0:23:44 > 0:23:49David was an interesting candidate and I observed him

0:23:49 > 0:23:53through the previous tasks as being very resourceful.

0:23:53 > 0:23:54A standout moment, of course,

0:23:54 > 0:23:59was when they were on the kids' book task, where he wrote the song and

0:23:59 > 0:24:01sang the song about the busy bee,

0:24:01 > 0:24:03and I thought that was very, very good.

0:24:03 > 0:24:06So he's an all-rounder that threw himself into things.

0:24:06 > 0:24:10David had a business which specialised in generating

0:24:10 > 0:24:14ticket sales for things like women's football,

0:24:14 > 0:24:17and I think it's quite a good idea, and I think he needs to pursue it.

0:24:17 > 0:24:21Stick to what you know is what I say, as far as that's concerned.

0:24:21 > 0:24:25Stick to what you know - is that a thing that you can take on board?

0:24:25 > 0:24:28Yeah, absolutely, and it's something I'm still doing today.

0:24:28 > 0:24:32- So I started that business before. - And what is that? What are you doing?

0:24:32 > 0:24:33It's sports marketing,

0:24:33 > 0:24:36so we're trying to promote a lot of women's sports in the UK.

0:24:36 > 0:24:41Women's sport is thriving, and I want to bring the women's game,

0:24:41 > 0:24:44- in all aspects of all sports, to where it needs to be.- Yeah, yeah.

0:24:44 > 0:24:46- Good luck with all of that. - Thank you.- Good to hear.

0:24:46 > 0:24:50Well, it's time to find out whether we agree that David was the right person to be fired.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53Anabel, do think Lord Sugar fired David at the right time?

0:24:53 > 0:24:55For me, it's a no.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58I respond very much to enthusiasm and energy, and if you can combine

0:24:58 > 0:25:01that with a good business plan, I think you've really got something.

0:25:01 > 0:25:04For me, it should have been Gary. Dull, boring, poor management.

0:25:04 > 0:25:06LAUGHTER

0:25:06 > 0:25:09All right! All right, all right! LAUGHTER

0:25:09 > 0:25:10Gabby?

0:25:10 > 0:25:14I have to agree, and I think Gary got away with it, really, because

0:25:14 > 0:25:18I think too many of the things that went wrong stopped with him.

0:25:18 > 0:25:19Romesh?

0:25:19 > 0:25:23I agree with the ladies - I don't think you should have been fired.

0:25:23 > 0:25:25I think the ironing thing, too much of a big deal was made

0:25:25 > 0:25:27out of that.

0:25:27 > 0:25:31I do stand by my comments that your rap thing was dreadful,

0:25:31 > 0:25:35but I do think that Gary mismanaged the situation.

0:25:35 > 0:25:37His communication of the cake thing was dreadful,

0:25:37 > 0:25:39so I think he should have gone.

0:25:39 > 0:25:41Wow, interesting! So, to the audience vote.

0:25:41 > 0:25:43If you agree with Lord Sugar, hold up Fired.

0:25:43 > 0:25:46If you don't agree, hold up Hired.

0:25:51 > 0:25:55- That is a Hired from the audience, as well.- I'll take that!

0:25:55 > 0:25:58- Well done!- Thank you very much.- Hired from the audience and from all three.

0:25:58 > 0:26:02So, as you know, nobody leaves You're Fired empty-handed,

0:26:02 > 0:26:05so I had to think about what we get.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08Knowing your love of T-shirts, especially ones with giant faces

0:26:08 > 0:26:11and so on and so forth, I had a go at doing...

0:26:11 > 0:26:13LAUGHTER

0:26:13 > 0:26:15..doing that one for you. There we go.

0:26:15 > 0:26:18I'm sorry The Apprentice came out backwards, but it's...

0:26:18 > 0:26:20- It's the first time I've ever... - You went over my face!

0:26:20 > 0:26:22That was deliberate. LAUGHTER

0:26:22 > 0:26:26It's the first time I've ever ironed anything, so...

0:26:26 > 0:26:28- So that's for you, there you are. - Thank you very much.

0:26:28 > 0:26:30You've been a terrific candidate and a lot of fun.

0:26:30 > 0:26:32Let's have a look at your highlights.

0:26:32 > 0:26:36David, David, David... Oh, David.

0:26:36 > 0:26:38What a cheese-ball, but what a lovely guy.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40# Wind your body... #

0:26:40 > 0:26:44They should have given YOU a name, Billy The Kid.

0:26:44 > 0:26:46They'll be putting their hands in the air, going like this,

0:26:46 > 0:26:49enjoying themselves. There's going to be a lot of movement.

0:26:49 > 0:26:52Swishing and swishing, tumbling and turning...

0:26:52 > 0:26:54CHEERING

0:26:56 > 0:26:58David is really cute and quirky.

0:26:58 > 0:27:02He's a really unusual guy and he's one of those people that never fails

0:27:02 > 0:27:06to surprise you with something unusual or interesting about him.

0:27:06 > 0:27:07Bang on!

0:27:07 > 0:27:09You can wear it with almost anything.

0:27:09 > 0:27:11I'm wearing it with a bit of a suit.

0:27:11 > 0:27:13CHEERING

0:27:13 > 0:27:17# Do the Boom shack-a-lak-a till the dance hall full up. #

0:27:17 > 0:27:19Wow.

0:27:19 > 0:27:20LAUGHTER

0:27:20 > 0:27:23Ladies and gentlemen, David Stevenson!

0:27:23 > 0:27:24CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:27:27 > 0:27:32Well, that's all for tonight. Thank you to Anabel, Gabby and Romesh.

0:27:32 > 0:27:36So it's on to task number nine for our candidates.

0:27:36 > 0:27:40You're going to sell the priciest product of them all - property.

0:27:40 > 0:27:42OMG.

0:27:42 > 0:27:44Have you ever bought a house?

0:27:45 > 0:27:47These are obviously the walls.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49Some people love the greenery...

0:27:49 > 0:27:51How are you doing? Are you OK?

0:27:51 > 0:27:54- I think that went well.- Mm-hm.

0:27:54 > 0:27:57Clearly there was no sophistication in what you were doing.

0:27:57 > 0:28:00- Milk Tray?- Jam tarts.

0:28:00 > 0:28:02Just a plate of biscuits!

0:28:02 > 0:28:04You were like a bull in a china shop.

0:28:04 > 0:28:06Won't move, promise you. Don't try it.

0:28:06 > 0:28:09Give us some good news, buddy.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11You could buy a street in Wales for that money!

0:28:11 > 0:28:13I've tried to mimic him this morning,

0:28:13 > 0:28:15so hopefully he's going to be impressed.

0:28:15 > 0:28:17Showed no reaction whatsoever.

0:28:17 > 0:28:20Go to...

0:28:20 > 0:28:23for everything you need to know about the series.

0:28:23 > 0:28:25We'll be back next Wednesday at ten for more You're Fired,

0:28:25 > 0:28:28when, alongside Romesh, I'll be joined by Greg James

0:28:28 > 0:28:31and international business consultant, Allyson Stewart-Allen.

0:28:31 > 0:28:32Goodnight.
