0:00:02 > 0:00:05'Useless. Totally, absolutely useless.'
0:00:05 > 0:00:06I feel so angry.
0:00:06 > 0:00:08I can't put up with loose cannons.
0:00:08 > 0:00:09You're fired.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11You're fired.
0:00:11 > 0:00:13You're fired.
0:00:13 > 0:00:16CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:00:27 > 0:00:30Good evening and welcome to You're Fired. I'm Rhod Gilbert.
0:00:30 > 0:00:31In this week's task,
0:00:31 > 0:00:34the candidates competing for a £250,000 investment from Lord Sugar
0:00:34 > 0:00:37had to organise sophisticated after-hours events at some of
0:00:37 > 0:00:39London's most famous landmarks.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42And the teams found themselves up against one of the toughest
0:00:42 > 0:00:45deadlines ever seen on The Apprentice.
0:00:45 > 0:00:49- We've got 15 minutes.- You don't. Your first guests have arrived.
0:00:49 > 0:00:50We've got no minutes.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52LAUGHTER
0:00:52 > 0:00:53In Apprentice News tonight...
0:00:53 > 0:00:56BIG BEN GONGS
0:00:56 > 0:00:59Nobody wants Dillon's hot food, but later on, with stomachs rumbling,
0:00:59 > 0:01:02there's bedlam when he drops his Mint Imperials.
0:01:02 > 0:01:03Go!
0:01:03 > 0:01:05THEY ALL SHOUT
0:01:05 > 0:01:07Dillon!
0:01:07 > 0:01:09Come on, people, I have faith in you!
0:01:09 > 0:01:11LAUGHTER
0:01:11 > 0:01:14Worried that Paul and Jessica's argument is getting out of hand,
0:01:14 > 0:01:17Claude employs a stunt double to watch over them.
0:01:17 > 0:01:18It's completely, like, the wrong way.
0:01:18 > 0:01:22You're trying to use whatever will sell to cover it. That's not how you do business.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Paul, do you know how you do do business?
0:01:28 > 0:01:30He's smiling.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33Courtney's attempt at a bloodcurdling pirate comes off
0:01:33 > 0:01:35a bit Hugh Grant.
0:01:35 > 0:01:36Oh-hoy there.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38LAUGHTER
0:01:38 > 0:01:41"I say, would anyone care to walk the plank?"
0:01:41 > 0:01:42After years of feuding,
0:01:42 > 0:01:45Blofeld and James Bond finally put their differences aside.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47HE LAUGHS
0:01:47 > 0:01:48GLASSES CLINK
0:01:50 > 0:01:53LAUGHTER
0:01:53 > 0:01:54He's no longer smiling.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58Paul suspects one of the party guests is trying to smuggle out all the cocktail sausages.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01- Having fun.- You're having fun.
0:02:01 > 0:02:02You're having fun.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04LAUGHTER
0:02:06 > 0:02:08And that was tonight's Apprentice News.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Let's meet our panel,
0:02:17 > 0:02:20ready to stick on their best frocks and party until 10:30 tonight...
0:02:20 > 0:02:24Internationally renowned entrepreneur and founder of the Mobo Awards Kanya King,
0:02:24 > 0:02:26aide to Lord Sugar, our very own Claude Littner
0:02:26 > 0:02:28and comedian and Apprentice fan Joe Lycett.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30Welcome to You're Fired.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:02:36 > 0:02:39So, after witnessing this week's exclusive social events,
0:02:39 > 0:02:43Lord Sugar challenged his inner nightclub bouncer and strong-armed
0:02:43 > 0:02:46Paul out of the process.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48Paul, I think that you made a very,
0:02:48 > 0:02:52very big error in the pricing strategy, and you can't lose
0:02:52 > 0:02:55your rag at every single time that something goes wrong.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58And you did lose your rag on this task in representing
0:02:58 > 0:03:00me in front of customers.
0:03:00 > 0:03:05And I think I've seen enough in the case of you, Paul, to say that...
0:03:06 > 0:03:09..you're fired.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19Please welcome Paul Sullivan.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:03:26 > 0:03:30- You all right, big man?- How are you doing?- Grab a seat. Grab a seat.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Paul Sullivan, ladies and gentlemen!
0:03:35 > 0:03:39So, Paul, how do you feel now?
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Um...
0:03:41 > 0:03:42Angry I think, I'm still angry.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44LAUGHTER
0:03:44 > 0:03:47- Still?- No, yeah, I'm a little bit deflated.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- I still think that I could have won it.- Yeah.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Were you surprised to go out?
0:03:52 > 0:03:55Not after that performance, no, but I think if it was judged over the previous week's,
0:03:55 > 0:03:57I don't think that I should have gone.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59No goodbye, there was no "thanks for the opportunity"
0:03:59 > 0:04:01- or none of that nonsense, straight home.- No.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05I don't think anyone really says "thanks for the opportunity" when you're getting fired, but I mean,...
0:04:05 > 0:04:09- They do, that's what they do. Haven't you noticed? Have you not watched this programme, mate?- I do.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11LAUGHTER
0:04:11 > 0:04:14It's not often we can pinpoint the exact moment that somebody
0:04:14 > 0:04:18loses interest in the 250 grand, but I think with you, I think as soon
0:04:18 > 0:04:22as you kind of went, "You can think what you bloody like, Lord Sugar!
0:04:22 > 0:04:24"Take it or leave it, mate. I don't care what you think."
0:04:24 > 0:04:27- That was the point where at home we kind of went, "Er... I think he's out."- Yeah.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30LAUGHTER
0:04:30 > 0:04:31Oh, God.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33LAUGHTER
0:04:33 > 0:04:36- Is it haunting you, the thought of it this haunting you?- Yeah.
0:04:36 > 0:04:40Sometimes I think that things just get the better of you,
0:04:40 > 0:04:41and I think that was one time where I was thinking,
0:04:41 > 0:04:43"You should have just shut up, mate," but I didn't.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45- What, him or you?- No, me.
0:04:45 > 0:04:46LAUGHTER
0:04:46 > 0:04:49In the taxi, you said you looking forward to seeing your mum.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52- I didn't see that coming.- Oh, listen, when your ego gets bruised like that,
0:04:52 > 0:04:55you definitely want to run back to your mum. Well, I do anyway, so...
0:04:55 > 0:04:57- Yeah. Was she looking forward to seeing you?- No, definitely not.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59LAUGHTER
0:04:59 > 0:05:01I didn't see that coming, Joe, did you,
0:05:01 > 0:05:03wanting to run back to your mum there.
0:05:03 > 0:05:04- No, I saw it coming.- Did you?
0:05:04 > 0:05:07Whenever I feel a bit hurt, I always run back to Paul's mum as well.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09LAUGHTER
0:05:09 > 0:05:12APPLAUSE
0:05:15 > 0:05:19That would have been very odd if you'd got home and he was out there.
0:05:19 > 0:05:20"Hiya!
0:05:20 > 0:05:22"Just watching The Apprentice."
0:05:22 > 0:05:25Kanya, you've organised lots of exclusive events,
0:05:25 > 0:05:27this kind of thing, over the years.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30Would you let Paul organise an event for you?
0:05:30 > 0:05:31Not immediately.
0:05:31 > 0:05:32LAUGHTER
0:05:32 > 0:05:34In time perhaps.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36I mean, I think running any exclusive event you need
0:05:36 > 0:05:38a number of key skills.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41Obviously good communication, people skills,
0:05:41 > 0:05:46working under tight deadlines and of course working under pressure.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49And I think that's when you truly see whether you are fully
0:05:49 > 0:05:54equipped to be able to produce those kind of high-level events.
0:05:54 > 0:05:55I have to ask you about this,
0:05:55 > 0:05:57because I'm going to show you a little clip and we have not
0:05:57 > 0:06:01interfered with this, it's not on a loop. We have done nothing to it.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03This is how it was. THEY LAUGH
0:06:03 > 0:06:06Can you explain what's going on here? Have a little look.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25We have not put that on a loop or anything!
0:06:25 > 0:06:28- I have got some Carmex if you want something. - LAUGHTER
0:06:28 > 0:06:30It's like, you go on the internet sometimes and you see
0:06:30 > 0:06:34people have put peanut butter on a dog's lips and that. I thought...
0:06:34 > 0:06:37Claude, you shadowed Paul for a number of weeks.
0:06:37 > 0:06:41Was he on borrowed time or was it this task that it was...?
0:06:41 > 0:06:42Well, this task was the defining one,
0:06:42 > 0:06:46because I think you made some really key bad decisions, Paul.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49I think throughout the tasks we never found quite what you
0:06:49 > 0:06:52were good at, and I don't mean that to be insulting, but just I
0:06:52 > 0:06:55never saw you comfortable in any particular week that I followed you.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58- OK.- That's cos you were following him I think!
0:06:58 > 0:07:00LAUGHTER
0:07:00 > 0:07:03So, this week Captain Dillon led his merry Titans to victory,
0:07:03 > 0:07:06and in the boardroom it was Paul who was left looking like a dummy.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Let's see where it all went wrong.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Project management any good?
0:07:12 > 0:07:14I'm thinking a full price ticket could be £50.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17- 'We're going to have to reduce our ticket pricing.'- OK.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19So if you've got the one drink on arrival,
0:07:19 > 0:07:22- the two canapes and the hot food, haven't they?- No, you've not got the hot food.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25- They've got to pay for the hot food.- No, no, they've got to pay for the hot food.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27- CLAUDE:- 'Paul's price drop is quite farcical.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30'It will be a miracle they can make a good enough margin on the
0:07:30 > 0:07:31'prices that they're selling at.'
0:07:31 > 0:07:33So, basically there's no salmon in the...?
0:07:33 > 0:07:35HE PUFFS IN FRUSTRATION
0:07:35 > 0:07:38When you were sold the tickets by Jessica, you were sold on the
0:07:38 > 0:07:41basis you were getting free drinks, canapes and hot food.
0:07:41 > 0:07:42OK, fine.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45- Just bear with me.- Just one second. - Bear with me a minute.- Please don't shout at me.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49Well, just stop talking when I'm trying to talk. I'm trying to explain to you about your situation.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53- LORD SUGAR:- Some of the guests thought that they were actually watching a remake of EastEnders.
0:07:54 > 0:07:59Let's start with the pricing comes up a lot. What happened with the pr...?
0:07:59 > 0:08:03- You started off at 65... - Right, so we start off at 65.- Yeah.
0:08:03 > 0:08:07And that's on the basis that we don't really know how much everything else is going to cost.
0:08:07 > 0:08:11And then I thought to myself, "Well, £65 is probably a little bit high,
0:08:11 > 0:08:14"£50 roughly is going to be about the right sort of price,
0:08:14 > 0:08:16"so before they got to the first venue,
0:08:16 > 0:08:19"give them a quick call and change the structure."
0:08:19 > 0:08:22I weren't really that confident that we were going to do that well
0:08:22 > 0:08:27in ticket sales, so it was a matter of trying to make the best of a bad day.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30We pretty much had lost it at the first point of sale.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33- It was 65, 55, 50, 40... - And then...- 35, 28...
0:08:33 > 0:08:36- Giving it away at the end, yeah.- 22, 21...
0:08:36 > 0:08:40What was the Bonus Ball again? I've forgotten... LAUGHTER
0:08:40 > 0:08:42- Whose fault was that, Paul?- Mine.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45- Are you just being magnanimous in here?- No, seriously.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48No, honestly, I made those decisions and, you know,
0:08:48 > 0:08:51I've got to stand by those, but I still shouldn't have been fired.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53LAUGHTER
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Would you have asked for a refund off that event?
0:08:55 > 0:08:56I wouldn't have gone in the first place.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59LAUGHTER
0:08:59 > 0:09:01Mainly cos I'm frightened of waxworks, so I'd just be
0:09:01 > 0:09:05having a panic attack in front of Prince William or something.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Claude, how much was it,
0:09:07 > 0:09:09Paul's very magnanimously said, "It was my fault,"
0:09:09 > 0:09:10but how much of it was Jessica for kind of going
0:09:10 > 0:09:13a bit rogue and suddenly putting it at 35 quid and brushing everybody
0:09:13 > 0:09:16off with a "Go away, I'll tell you later, use your common sense?"
0:09:16 > 0:09:17She just wanted to sell,
0:09:17 > 0:09:20and I think she got carried away with the price, really.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22And to be fair, cos I was there,
0:09:22 > 0:09:24it was hard to maintain the top price, because nobody was
0:09:24 > 0:09:26interested, so they had to drop the price to get some sales.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29They dropped the price a bit too quickly, but there was no control of the thing,
0:09:29 > 0:09:33and I think even you weren't sure whether the food, hot food was included or not.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36I think Frances was the one that said, "No, it's not included.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39They did know, but maybe you can get confused when you get somewhere when you're under pressure,
0:09:39 > 0:09:43and I think maybe it was the pressure of not selling the tickets that actually made people
0:09:43 > 0:09:45start to crumble and start doing their own thing.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47Jessica's line of common sense as well,
0:09:47 > 0:09:50"Just use your common sense," just wasn't helpful in that way, was it?
0:09:50 > 0:09:52It wasn't at all! "Use your common sense!"
0:09:52 > 0:09:57It's a good job she's not teaching people to do brain surgery, is it? "Just use your common sense!"
0:09:57 > 0:10:01Kanya, you have Rihanna, you've had Tinie Tempah.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04People like that, guests of that ilk,
0:10:04 > 0:10:06would they have been happy with what they...?
0:10:06 > 0:10:08LAUGHTER
0:10:08 > 0:10:12- Stormzy, would Stormzy have asked for a refund at one of these events, do you think?- Oh, my God.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15I think you know what I'm going to say. I mean, the thing is,
0:10:15 > 0:10:17we all know that celebrities and talent get invited to
0:10:17 > 0:10:21so many events, so when you're putting on a high-profile event,
0:10:21 > 0:10:23you really have to make it a memorable experience,
0:10:23 > 0:10:25you know, it really has to stand out.
0:10:25 > 0:10:29The beginning when they arrive, to the customer service in between, to when they leave,
0:10:29 > 0:10:34- you really want to pull out all the stops, and, well, OK.- Yeah. - LAUGHTER
0:10:34 > 0:10:35It was memorable.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38It was memorable in not the way you wanted it to be.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40Well, poor Claude.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42It's quite a job having to keep an eye on all the candidates and
0:10:42 > 0:10:44observe all the dramas,
0:10:44 > 0:10:47so it's no wonder he tried to blend into the background this week.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00- And that is a recognisable face. - It's just a little bit realistic.
0:11:04 > 0:11:09- Would you like to have a waxwork? - That's it!- I can see you breathing.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11I can see you breathing.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14Let's talk about the food. We've hinted at the food!
0:11:14 > 0:11:17Paul, talk me through the canapes please. PAUL SIGHS
0:11:17 > 0:11:20- Right, so where do we start? - I don't know!
0:11:20 > 0:11:25I made some dry Jacobs crackers with a bit of olive oil chucked on some diced tomato.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28Oh, Claude saying "It's a cracker bite" is the most frightening thing I've ever...
0:11:28 > 0:11:31LAUGHTER
0:11:31 > 0:11:34I think it was funny I was trying to convince myself that this was a bruschetta bite, and Claude
0:11:34 > 0:11:37was like, "So it's just crackers with tomatoes."
0:11:37 > 0:11:40- "It's a cracker bite." That was it. - LAUGHTER
0:11:40 > 0:11:43Why didn't you spend more money on food?
0:11:43 > 0:11:46When it comes down to it, and you know the end goal is to try
0:11:46 > 0:11:49and make profit, I think I went for the profit and not the customer service,
0:11:49 > 0:11:51and that's blatantly obvious there.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53And whose fault was it, cos Frances was going,
0:11:53 > 0:11:55"It's all right, I can play mum and I can get a lot for a little."
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Whose fault was it between you two?
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Frances did run the budget and she chose the ingredients,
0:12:00 > 0:12:03- so I think she's get to take some responsibility.- Frances, then. - Yeah, Frances.
0:12:03 > 0:12:04THEY LAUGH
0:12:04 > 0:12:07Frances took a lot of flak, Claude, for the canapes.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10Unfairly, because actually Frances was very, very good.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13She was prepared to work with you, which isn't easy,
0:12:13 > 0:12:16and she was then prepared to go onto the other team and try and
0:12:16 > 0:12:18sort of smooth it out with Jessica.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20But she set the budget for the food.
0:12:20 > 0:12:21Did she scrimp and save too much, would you say,
0:12:21 > 0:12:25or was it her ingenuity with little money that...? What...?
0:12:25 > 0:12:29Look, you've got to have ingenuity, but you can't make something with nothing.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31No, but it was her decision to go with nothing.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33Well, yes, I think she had nothing to go with though.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36- It was her decision to go with nothing.- Well, if you say so.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39- How does that work?- Yes, badly. - She had nothing to go with,
0:12:39 > 0:12:41but it was her decision to have nothing to go with.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44- Oh, the tables have turned now, Claude, haven't they? - LAUGHTER
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Right, I'm off. LAUGHTER
0:12:47 > 0:12:53Joe, at what point do you give up on a salmon, cream cheese and chives canape?
0:12:53 > 0:12:56Is it when you haven't got the smoked salmon or do you plough on?
0:12:56 > 0:13:00A bag of Monster Munch would have gone down a lot better than what you produced there.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03Yeah, I think you've got to, I think that's one of the key things
0:13:03 > 0:13:06- that you got wrong there is that salmon.- Do you think?
0:13:06 > 0:13:09Smoked salmon is so, I mean, I eat it all the time and, I mean,
0:13:09 > 0:13:12I'm on telly money, so, you know, who gives a...? But, you know...
0:13:12 > 0:13:13LAUGHTER
0:13:13 > 0:13:16But it is cheap. It's cheaper than I think you realise.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19I like crackers as much as the next person,
0:13:19 > 0:13:24but calling them bruschetta bites, I mean, that was genius, wasn't it?
0:13:24 > 0:13:26I appreciate the creativity.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28I think there's a fine line that you can cross, to be honest,
0:13:28 > 0:13:31and if you want to have a long-term, you know,
0:13:31 > 0:13:35be in the business for a long term in the way of delivering more events,
0:13:35 > 0:13:39you need to put on something that people will remember for years to come, because people don't forget.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42You can say they won't remember that for years to come. LAUGHTER
0:13:42 > 0:13:44- Bruschetta bites! - You left your mark!
0:13:44 > 0:13:47- None of us are going to forget bruschetta bites.- Bruschetta bites.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50They do it a lot, though, with food, don't they, where they sort of...
0:13:50 > 0:13:54I hate when they say pan-fried. What else are you going to fry it in?
0:13:54 > 0:13:57- It's just a...- Toast, toaster-toasted. - LAUGHTER
0:13:57 > 0:14:01Yeah, exactly. We're used to this, a bit of creative license. There's nothing wrong with it, is there?
0:14:01 > 0:14:03What would you call Monster Munch if you're having a party?
0:14:03 > 0:14:06- Monsur mange. - LAUGHTER
0:14:06 > 0:14:10Time now for any information-hungry budding entrepreneurs to prick
0:14:10 > 0:14:14up their ears as we offer another highbrow educational take on the week's events.
0:14:19 > 0:14:23- If you want to call it a name or... - This is a bruschetta bite.- OK. - Simple.
0:14:23 > 0:14:24What shall we call this, Paul?
0:14:24 > 0:14:26Um...
0:14:26 > 0:14:29- Mate, you created it. - Sof's Cucumber.
0:14:29 > 0:14:32I'm definitely not calling it Sof's Cucumber.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36APPLAUSE
0:14:37 > 0:14:39Er, Jessica...
0:14:39 > 0:14:43How did you get on with Jessica? You seemed to have your ups and downs?
0:14:43 > 0:14:46- No, I didn't, I think that Jessica's a lovely girl.- Yeah.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50I think I learnt more about Jessica on that last task than at any other time.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53Do you think ultimately that it was the right decision to move
0:14:53 > 0:14:58- Frances across to bump Jessica on the sub-team?- I think that I made the right decision.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00I mean, if I could go back and do it again,
0:15:00 > 0:15:03I would probably explain it a little bit more.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06I think I half expected a little bit of confrontation,
0:15:06 > 0:15:10which I tried to, like, avoid from an emotional perspective,
0:15:10 > 0:15:14and it just came across as blunt and uncaring, but I'm not really like that.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16Well, Paul may have led his team to a loss this week,
0:15:16 > 0:15:18but he didn't do it alone.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21Alongside him was his best mate, I mean his worst enemy.
0:15:21 > 0:15:26Either way, she was always there. A friend, a frenemy, a Frances.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28- Frances, you're going to work with me.- Yeah. I like working with you.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30I really like working with you.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32MUSIC: I'll Be There For You by The Rembrandts
0:15:32 > 0:15:34I think you've got three strong people on that team,
0:15:34 > 0:15:37but I don't think anyone's a natural leader like me and you.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40That is... Do you know what, Paul? I think that me and you are on the same page.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45- I might switch you into that team to sort it out tomorrow.- Hmm.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51- I really enjoy working with you. - I'm easy to work with.
0:15:51 > 0:15:56I was getting very little from Paul, and it was literally I was on a deadline and had very little...
0:15:56 > 0:15:58- You were just sat there. - I don't think so.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00# I hate you so much right now... #
0:16:00 > 0:16:04- Don't try and paint the picture like you've done it.- I'm not.- We were sitting in the room together.- Yeah.
0:16:04 > 0:16:08- And we was going through what we could do because of the restricted budget.- I was giving suggestions...
0:16:08 > 0:16:09And I was working with you.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12APPLAUSE
0:16:13 > 0:16:17Man, that was a... Such an emotional rollercoaster. What, what...?
0:16:17 > 0:16:19It was like watching a romcom in reverse.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22Characters normally start, they hate each other and then they fall
0:16:22 > 0:16:25in love and stuff, and this was, you did it all the wrong way round.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27She was kind of a little bit, a bit of betrayal there,
0:16:27 > 0:16:30and actually from that point she talked herself into coming
0:16:30 > 0:16:32into the bottom three, cos I would have took Sofiane in,
0:16:32 > 0:16:35- so I actually had Sofiane planned.- JOE:- Oh!
0:16:35 > 0:16:39- Yeah, it was a bit of a...- Oh!- Oh! - Joe. Joe, by all means. By all means.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41LAUGHTER I'm so excited.
0:16:41 > 0:16:42LAUGHTER
0:16:42 > 0:16:45- Isn't he? So you had no intention of bringing her back in?- No.
0:16:45 > 0:16:46I debated over it.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50I was actually thinking, "No, don't do it, don't do it, don't do it. Take Sofiane in,
0:16:50 > 0:16:51"you know it's him." "No, it was you."
0:16:51 > 0:16:53- So it was like... - LAUGHTER
0:16:53 > 0:16:55Does that surprise you, Claude, to learn that?
0:16:55 > 0:16:59You can't underestimate the stress and pressure there is in that boardroom.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02- It really is... It's a horrible place to be.- Even you! Even you!
0:17:02 > 0:17:03LAUGHTER
0:17:03 > 0:17:07On this side of it it's all right, but it is difficult, it really is.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09- There's not many candidates left. - No.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11Trishna, what did you make of her?
0:17:11 > 0:17:15I kind of, sort of, cottoned to myself that she was someone
0:17:15 > 0:17:17- that could definitely go on and win this.- Claude?
0:17:17 > 0:17:21- She did the great job on the tour at the waxworks.- She was unbelievable.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23- You were impressed. - Well, yes, to have...
0:17:23 > 0:17:26To memorise everything so quickly and know every single detail,
0:17:26 > 0:17:30- she really was outstanding. Really unbelievable.- Yeah.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33She was up till about two in the morning I think just doing that.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35- Was she? Just learning the stuff? - She just put the effort in.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37But it's that preparation really paid off.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39She was just very impressive.
0:17:39 > 0:17:45You can tell she's got a very level-headed business head and just, kind of, took clear instructions,
0:17:45 > 0:17:47she listened very well and then she actioned.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Joe, you would have enjoyed that tour of the waxworks, wouldn't you?
0:17:50 > 0:17:53- She did do a great... She's done a really good job.- It was impressive,
0:17:53 > 0:17:56but, yeah, up till 2am doing... I mean, what a square.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00LAUGHTER
0:18:00 > 0:18:01Have a drink, get to bed.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03LAUGHTER
0:18:03 > 0:18:06So, Dillon led Titans to victory this week and he clearly had a ball.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09For those of you missing his bubbly vocals, don't worry,
0:18:09 > 0:18:12we have a very special Christmas treat just for you.
0:18:12 > 0:18:16# Spend your life, your jolly life, just sailing on the sea... #
0:18:16 > 0:18:18'Sailing On The Sea,
0:18:18 > 0:18:21'it's the brand-new album from the singing sensation Dillon St Paul.'
0:18:21 > 0:18:23I'm your captain for this evening...
0:18:23 > 0:18:26'16 classic sea shanties for you to enjoy.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29'Miming With Mermaids Makes Me Emotional...'
0:18:29 > 0:18:32# And when they sail day and night... #
0:18:32 > 0:18:35'If the party's bad, just blow some bubbles.'
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Blow some bubbles. Create some atmosphere.
0:18:37 > 0:18:38Bubbles!
0:18:38 > 0:18:41'And the number one hit I've Forgotten The Words.
0:18:41 > 0:18:46# I love that girl with all my heart, I did not... the other part.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49# I did not like the tail, woo! #
0:18:49 > 0:18:52Give' your family the gift of Dillon St Paul this Christmas.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56'And the first 20 people to order will get a free glass of prosecco.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:19:02 > 0:19:03Joe...
0:19:03 > 0:19:06You enjoyed Dillon's singing sailor this week, Joe!
0:19:06 > 0:19:10- It looks like a video out of a Scientology convention, doesn't it? - It does!
0:19:10 > 0:19:11LAUGHTER
0:19:11 > 0:19:13- I loved it.- Did you?
0:19:13 > 0:19:16I don't think he did anything for gay stereotypes particularly.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19I mean, he was obsessed with dressing the venue,
0:19:19 > 0:19:21show tunes and mermaids. I mean...
0:19:21 > 0:19:24But... I love Dillon.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26But he's just being himself and that task suited him, didn't it?
0:19:26 > 0:19:29Oh, yeah, totally. Dillon for Prime Minister.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31LAUGHTER
0:19:31 > 0:19:33Dillon for...
0:19:33 > 0:19:35For everything in my...
0:19:35 > 0:19:37If you're watching, Dillon, I love you.
0:19:37 > 0:19:38LAUGHTER
0:19:38 > 0:19:40APPLAUSE
0:19:40 > 0:19:43Considering his starting point, his starting point was
0:19:43 > 0:19:47people turning up expecting to see a real live mermaid... LAUGHTER
0:19:47 > 0:19:51As promised by Grainne who went berserk on the side there, going...
0:19:51 > 0:19:52She just got more and more extreme.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55She can hold her... Minute after minute under the water.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58She can dive hour after hour. She lives in the North Sea.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00She once even got beached in Cornwall.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02She was rescued by Greenpeace.
0:20:02 > 0:20:03She's got girls.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07I mean, she sold the most ridiculous mermaid event of all.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09I mean, he rescued that, come on.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12Look, every single task, Dillon is enthusiastic.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14He throws himself into every single task,
0:20:14 > 0:20:16and this one's just tailor-made for him.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19Joe, what do you think it would have been like without him there?
0:20:19 > 0:20:21It would have been a woman dressed as a mermaid in a chair.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23LAUGHTER
0:20:23 > 0:20:26- That's what it was. - I mean, that's...- It was.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Effectively, it was a woman in a sleeping bag, and he pulled it off.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33He pulled it off and made it quite a decent party with 100%...
0:20:33 > 0:20:35- Yeah, a sleepover.- Kanya, that was incredibly impressive.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37I mean, it was impressive. Courtney had a much harder job
0:20:37 > 0:20:40and you could see he was just so uncomfortable
0:20:40 > 0:20:41when he had to do the public speaking.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44I mean, he was practically holding on to a tank,
0:20:44 > 0:20:46you know, for dear life!
0:20:46 > 0:20:50And just the body language - it was just so uncomfortable to watch.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Claude, that was painful to watch - Courtney's tour of the aquarium.
0:20:53 > 0:20:54It was pretty awful, yes.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57Well, he said, "And we're now in the..."
0:20:57 > 0:21:00- He didn't know where he was. - LAUGHTER
0:21:00 > 0:21:03- So, he wasn't great.- Yeah, he had a bit of a prompt from Grainne.
0:21:03 > 0:21:04(Aquarium!)
0:21:04 > 0:21:06But to be fair, in the room he was in,
0:21:06 > 0:21:08I'm not surprised he forgot where he was.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11I mean, out the front, where the normal punters were,
0:21:11 > 0:21:15was, like, shark and turtle, stingrays, incredibly...
0:21:15 > 0:21:17Out the back, it was like a Reading pet shop.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19I mean, it was... LAUGHTER
0:21:19 > 0:21:23- I mean, Courtney is not Mr Charisma, is he?- Not exactly.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26So, put those two things together and that was a tough call,
0:21:26 > 0:21:28- that tour, wasn't it? - You can't be good at everything.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31That's not Courtney's strength, but he has other strengths.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33I think that's the point, is that, you know,
0:21:33 > 0:21:35you're not looking for Mr Perfection or Mrs Perfection.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38It's somebody who can run a business, can create value.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41And if he's weak at presenting, then he's going to have
0:21:41 > 0:21:43to get somebody in the real world to do that bit for him.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45But it doesn't make him a nonstarter.
0:21:45 > 0:21:46Were you impressed with Courtney?
0:21:46 > 0:21:51"Oh, hi." Wasn't that what he said? "Oh, hi."
0:21:51 > 0:21:54No, Courtney's, um... Courtney, for me, is just floating along.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56I know that he's...
0:21:56 > 0:21:58- I think he's been... - He should have got in the tank!
0:21:58 > 0:22:00LAUGHTER
0:22:00 > 0:22:02See, now, that would have been a better tour,
0:22:02 > 0:22:03if he'd got in the tank.
0:22:03 > 0:22:07He can breathe for minutes and minutes. He's incredible!
0:22:07 > 0:22:09"Here's me being stung by a jellyfish."
0:22:09 > 0:22:12LAUGHTER My favourite line of it was just,
0:22:12 > 0:22:14when you're trying to say something interesting, going,
0:22:14 > 0:22:16"The reason they're going round and round..."
0:22:16 > 0:22:18You thought, "Here we go. Something interesting here.
0:22:18 > 0:22:19"Blue Planet DVD coming up."
0:22:19 > 0:22:22And he goes, "Oh, no, that's just the pump in the tank."
0:22:22 > 0:22:24LAUGHTER
0:22:24 > 0:22:27Now, Karren seemed really impressed with Dillon earlier in the task,
0:22:27 > 0:22:29but by the time she got to the boardroom,
0:22:29 > 0:22:31she was back to her usual self.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43I'd like to meet the people that thought that it was a great event
0:22:43 > 0:22:45sitting watching the mermaid singing.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47- You also sang, didn't you, Dillon?- I did.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49It's not as bad as it sounds.
0:22:49 > 0:22:50It was actually much worse.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58We had Karren on the show and she didn't seem that...
0:22:58 > 0:23:02- Are you scared of Karren, Claude? - No, she's great. No, she's great.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05- LAUGHTER - I'll say that again.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08- No, she's great. - LAUGHTER
0:23:08 > 0:23:10- OK.- No, she's...- She's great? - She's fantastic.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13- No, she's fantastic on the task. - Is she scared of you?- Slightly.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15- LAUGHTER - Quite right, too.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17Who's most scared of whom on your side of the table?
0:23:17 > 0:23:20- We're both really scary. - LAUGHTER
0:23:20 > 0:23:23Well, Paul, unfortunately, Lord Sugar won't be, as you know,
0:23:23 > 0:23:25investing in you,
0:23:25 > 0:23:28- but he did have this advice for your future.- Oh, gosh.
0:23:29 > 0:23:32Well, Paul is a straightforward, clean-cut fellow.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35There's no frills about Paul. He says it as it is.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37Where he went wrong was he started to row a lot
0:23:37 > 0:23:41with his own staff in front of customers.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43I mean, the positive thing about Paul was his enthusiasm.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45He didn't step back and hide.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47What Paul's got to try and do
0:23:47 > 0:23:50is to be a little bit more tolerant with people,
0:23:50 > 0:23:53and if he can do that, I think he's going to go a long way.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58Going to go a long way if you can be more tolerant with people.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00Yeah, I think...
0:24:00 > 0:24:04You know, in my own business, I've got a good set of staff
0:24:04 > 0:24:07that I've chosen to work with me, so, yeah, I'll go a long way.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09What was your business plan?
0:24:09 > 0:24:11To further invest into my own business,
0:24:11 > 0:24:12which is a marketing agency.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15- It's a marketing...? - Agency.- Agency.- Yeah.
0:24:15 > 0:24:19Fair enough. Not going to get into it in any more detail than that.
0:24:19 > 0:24:24Lord Sugar made his decision, but do our panel feel it was the right one?
0:24:24 > 0:24:28- Kanya?- Yes, I do.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30- Claude?- I think so, Paul.- Yeah.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33Just unfortunate. I think you argue too much, you lost your cool,
0:24:33 > 0:24:35- and I think that did it for you. - Mm-hm.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38I would have liked it if you said, "No, Lord Sugar's rubbish."
0:24:38 > 0:24:40LAUGHTER
0:24:40 > 0:24:43It was a tricky one, but I think, yeah, I think he did get it right.
0:24:43 > 0:24:47- OK. It's not great so far.- Well... - LAUGHTER
0:24:47 > 0:24:49- There's still time.- It's still 100%. - LAUGHTER
0:24:49 > 0:24:53- 100% satisfaction.- Yeah. - THEY LAUGH
0:24:53 > 0:24:55Let's see what our audience think, though.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58If you agree with Lord Sugar, then hold up Fired.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01If you disagree, then hold up Hired now, please.
0:25:04 > 0:25:09Oh, God, it's like the Red Sea. LAUGHTER
0:25:09 > 0:25:14It is fairly decisively red, I'm afraid, Paul.
0:25:14 > 0:25:18But nobody leaves here, Paul, empty-handed.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20Now, Christmas is coming,
0:25:20 > 0:25:24so we thought we would get you something a little Christmassy,
0:25:24 > 0:25:28so we got you a beautiful Christmas hamper.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30I'm never good at waiting for Christmas,
0:25:30 > 0:25:33so let's get it open and see what's in it.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35Let's see what's in it now. I should warn you, Paul,
0:25:35 > 0:25:39that we did leave Frances' controller budget for this.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42LAUGHTER I'm really sorry.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47You've got your cucumber, your cream cheese.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50There you go, look, I'm going to do you a bruschetta bite there.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53LAUGHTER Beautiful.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55- There's a tomato on that! - LAUGHTER
0:25:55 > 0:25:58It's been a pleasure having you on. You've been a great sport.
0:25:58 > 0:25:59- I hope you've enjoyed the show. - I have.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Let's have a look at your highlights.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03I definitely don't shy away from conflict.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05Make no mistake about it, I'm here to win.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09I've spent quite a bit of time watching Bargain Hunt.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11I really do need a deal, otherwise I can't buy them.
0:26:11 > 0:26:12We need to get this done.
0:26:12 > 0:26:13Paul. Do you know what?
0:26:13 > 0:26:16Paul's actually really funny, but very friendly.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19- ALL:- Yay!- An all-round nice guy.
0:26:19 > 0:26:22I think I'd like to maybe work a little bit closer with you
0:26:22 > 0:26:23to give you the support.
0:26:23 > 0:26:24So, we'll take this one.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26It is quite an on-trend thing.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29I do get on really well with Paul, to be honest.
0:26:29 > 0:26:31He's a good laugh and, yeah, a good lad.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34It's like kind of futuristic meets modern contemporary.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38- I think this is very hipster, East London, Shoreditch.- Yeah.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41It's mad just running around in your neck of the woods.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47Ladies and gentlemen, Paul Sullivan.

0:27:24 > 0:27:26What do Martians look like?
0:27:26 > 0:27:28He could have, like, a big quiff, couldn't he?
0:27:28 > 0:27:30Do you think we should, like, put a helmet on it?
0:27:30 > 0:27:32What planet are they on?
0:27:32 > 0:27:34I actually like this.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37- Does my bum look big in this?- Wow!
0:27:39 > 0:27:42Instead of bubbles, it could be jellyfish. Is that a badger?
0:27:42 > 0:27:46- It's just tragic.- It's just getting weirder and weirder, isn't it?
0:27:46 > 0:27:48- Let's go.- Get it, get it, get it, get it!
0:27:48 > 0:27:52- Many magical artefacts have been stolen.- Oh!
0:27:52 > 0:27:54It doesn't sound so much of a game, more a cry for help.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57- If I tell you I love it, I'm lying to you.- Oh, OK!
0:27:57 > 0:27:59She certainly has a personality.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01I would like to be a little bit more involved.
