I'm not impressed with any of you. This is a bloody shambles.

0:00:020:00:04

You didn't follow the money.

0:00:040:00:06

I've got two teams here and they're both rubbish.

0:00:060:00:09

You're fired. You're fired. You're fired.

0:00:090:00:12

APPLAUSE

0:00:120:00:14

Good evening.

0:00:250:00:27

Good evening and welcome to The Apprentice: You're Fired.

0:00:270:00:29

I'm Rhod Gilbert. This week saw our candidates laying on hospitality boxes

0:00:290:00:33

for guests at Wembley Stadium.

0:00:330:00:35

While the women battled it out in the FA Cup final on the pitch,

0:00:350:00:38

the candidates fought it out on the terraces -

0:00:380:00:41

with wine, canapes, cheesy crisps and even cheesier singing.

0:00:410:00:44

It was always going to be a challenging task.

0:00:440:00:46

And in a candid interview, Karren gave us a glimpse

0:00:460:00:49

of what it was going to take her to get through the day.

0:00:490:00:52

One bottle of white wine, six bottles of red wine,

0:00:520:00:54

three bottles of champagne, that's not going to last six hours.

0:00:540:00:57

-Not even close!

-LAUGHTER

0:00:570:01:00

Here to help us figure out who are our star strikers

0:01:000:01:02

and who should have been our left back in the changing rooms,

0:01:020:01:05

please welcome tonight's panel of Apprentice fans and guests.

0:01:050:01:07

International entrepreneur, Frances Dickens, actor, Sally Lindsay,

0:01:070:01:11

and comedian, Tom Allen. Welcome to You're Fired!

0:01:110:01:13

APPLAUSE

0:01:130:01:16

Frances, what did you make of tonight's shenanigans?

0:01:170:01:20

Well, I thought it was a cracking episode, actually.

0:01:200:01:24

The boys desperately needed to win. They did.

0:01:240:01:27

Or, perhaps more accurately, I should say, they lost by less.

0:01:270:01:30

Sally, what did you make of it?

0:01:310:01:33

I couldn't believe the mistakes they both made on both sides.

0:01:330:01:37

But especially the boys, actually,

0:01:370:01:39

I'm still astounded that the boys won. I'm astounded by it.

0:01:390:01:43

To the point that I was screaming at the television, going,

0:01:430:01:46

"I would hate to be in that box! There's no booze!"

0:01:460:01:50

-But that was me.

-Tom?

0:01:500:01:53

I thought it was a great week for finding out how to display

0:01:530:01:56

cheesy puffs in a plastic bowl.

0:01:560:02:00

Wonderful episode, wonderful.

0:02:000:02:01

You'll get more post-match punditry on this week's task

0:02:010:02:04

when they meet the fourth candidate to be fired.

0:02:040:02:06

But first...

0:02:060:02:08

BONG

0:02:080:02:10

In Apprentice News tonight...

0:02:100:02:12

When Lord Sugar looks for one of the girls to move to the boys' team,

0:02:120:02:15

Sarah Jayne tries to make herself invisible.

0:02:150:02:18

-LORD SUGAR:

-So, choose which one of these ladies

0:02:180:02:20

you want to join your team.

0:02:200:02:22

-Sarah.

-Yeah.

-Sarah.

0:02:220:02:24

LAUGHTER

0:02:240:02:26

Lord Sugar is so busy talking about Bushra's football presentation,

0:02:260:02:29

he doesn't even notice that over on the boys' team,

0:02:290:02:32

Andrew's head actually falls off.

0:02:320:02:35

Like, there's a stadium and it's called Wembley

0:02:350:02:37

and they play football here and that's it.

0:02:370:02:42

LAUGHTER

0:02:420:02:44

Tasked with selling candyfloss to kids,

0:02:440:02:46

Elizabeth channels the Child Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

0:02:460:02:50

Who would like some candyfloss toda-a-ay ?

0:02:500:02:52

Just in case there were still any kids hanging about...

0:02:550:02:57

Who would like some cotton candy toda-a-a-a-ay?

0:02:570:03:01

LAUGHTER

0:03:010:03:04

Expecting a simple illusion, James is terrified

0:03:040:03:07

when he sees actual impossible magic.

0:03:070:03:09

-That's quality, innit?

-That just makes no sense!

0:03:100:03:13

LAUGHTER

0:03:130:03:15

And that's tonight's Apprentice News!

0:03:150:03:18

APPLAUSE

0:03:180:03:20

So, after putting the loss into candyfloss

0:03:220:03:25

and the sweet FA into the women's FA Cup final and project managing the

0:03:250:03:28

girls to their first defeat, Siobhan was shown the red card by Lord Sugar.

0:03:280:03:33

Siobhan, not having a strategy when this is your area of expertise,

0:03:330:03:38

over-ordering is really a crime, as far as I'm concerned.

0:03:380:03:45

And on that basis, Siobhan, I regret to say

0:03:450:03:48

that you're fired.

0:03:480:03:51

Thank you, Lord Sugar.

0:03:510:03:52

Please welcome Siobhan Smith!

0:03:570:04:00

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:04:000:04:04

-How are you feeling?

-Yeah, not too bad, a bit nervous, but...

0:04:120:04:15

-Yeah, that's natural.

-Yeah.

-How is it, watching that back?

0:04:150:04:19

Yeah, it was hard in some aspects because, you know,

0:04:190:04:22

it was a hard task.

0:04:220:04:23

I didn't lose for doing something catastrophically wrong,

0:04:230:04:26

you know, I just oversold on alcohol

0:04:260:04:28

and, to be honest, for me, in events,

0:04:280:04:30

it would be catastrophic not to have enough alcohol and to run out.

0:04:300:04:34

So, it was a hard task to go out on, really.

0:04:340:04:37

And I was a bit sad about it.

0:04:370:04:38

I thought you might have put up more of a fight in the boardroom.

0:04:380:04:41

-Were you hungover? Is that what it was?

-I wish! God, it would have been good.

0:04:410:04:45

No, it got to the stage in the end where, you know,

0:04:450:04:47

I took maybe one of the wrong people in, you know,

0:04:470:04:50

I had to take Elizabeth as sub team leader.

0:04:500:04:52

Probably, looking at the episode now, she didn't deserve to come in.

0:04:520:04:55

I do actually love Elizabeth and Joanna, but, you know,

0:04:550:04:57

they're very good at talking a good game and, you know,

0:04:570:04:59

they're not narcissists, but they love to talk about how good they are.

0:04:590:05:02

I'm one of these people in life, I would never ever say, you know,

0:05:020:05:05

"I'm the best, I'm the best," because I prefer to prove myself.

0:05:050:05:08

Sally, Joanna and Elizabeth

0:05:080:05:10

are the two people that Siobhan took into the boardroom.

0:05:100:05:13

-Were you surprised that Lord Sugar fired Siobhan?

-I was astounded.

0:05:130:05:16

-Really?

-Yeah.

0:05:160:05:18

Because if my friends didn't have the right amount of drink,

0:05:180:05:21

that would be it!

0:05:210:05:23

It would be the worst thing ever because we're British

0:05:230:05:25

and that's what we like to do. And especially in those football boxes.

0:05:250:05:28

-I've been to a few of them. They've never gone dry.

-Yeah.

0:05:280:05:31

Frances, Siobhan said in the taxi, "I wanted to make the client happy,

0:05:310:05:34

"in my line of work, that's what you do." Was that the right thing to do?

0:05:340:05:37

Yeah, I mean, you're absolutely right about that

0:05:370:05:39

but I think the thing to remember is that making the client happy

0:05:390:05:42

and making a profit aren't necessarily mutually exclusive.

0:05:420:05:46

You've actually got to do both.

0:05:460:05:48

And if you sort of put it into context,

0:05:480:05:50

box holders at Wembley pay something like 37 grand upwards

0:05:500:05:54

for a box for the season,

0:05:540:05:56

so, they want to make sure they're having a great time

0:05:560:05:59

and what this task actually boiled down to was balancing delivering

0:05:590:06:02

a good time, which you undoubtedly did do, and making a profit as well.

0:06:020:06:05

I don't think there's any doubt,

0:06:050:06:07

if any of your future clients are watching this, they're going

0:06:070:06:10

to be going, "Great, let's go and get pissed with Siobhan!"

0:06:100:06:13

Tom, you're a comedian, a stand-up comedian.

0:06:130:06:15

We know all about trying to keep people happy.

0:06:150:06:18

-Trying to keep clients happy.

-I think if I was doing the task,

0:06:180:06:21

I'd be obsessed with trying to please Lord Sugar.

0:06:210:06:23

Because I think everybody watches the programme going,

0:06:230:06:26

"Yeah, these people on it, they're all idiots, but if I was there,

0:06:260:06:29

"I'd have got it right from the beginning, oh, Lord Sugar would absolutely love me!"

0:06:290:06:33

But I think in the situation, it must be so stressful,

0:06:330:06:35

-it must be...

-You've been up since five, you know.

-Yes!

0:06:350:06:38

That phone call in the morning from that strange...

0:06:380:06:40

Who is that person on the end of the phone, by the way?

0:06:400:06:43

Who phones up first thing in the morning,

0:06:430:06:45

"Lord Sugar will meet you at blah blah in five seconds."

0:06:450:06:47

Who are you? Is it that receptionist as well?

0:06:470:06:50

Does that receptionist do that phone call at four o'clock in the morning?

0:06:500:06:53

And she's still there at the end of the day when they go into the boardroom!

0:06:530:06:56

What are her hours?

0:06:560:06:57

They go into the boardroom, she gets some sleep.

0:06:570:07:00

Lord Sugar will see you now.

0:07:000:07:02

I'll call you a cab. Oh, no, you survived?

0:07:020:07:04

This week saw Team Graphene lose to Team Vitality for the first time.

0:07:040:07:08

With project manager Siobhan slotting home a few own goals

0:07:080:07:11

and leading her side to defeat. And in the boardroom,

0:07:110:07:14

Lord Sugar crossed her name off the team sheet for good.

0:07:140:07:17

Let's see where it all went wrong.

0:07:170:07:19

The thing all went wrong on that fatal phone call, which was chaos.

0:07:190:07:22

THEY TALK OVER ONE ANOTHER

0:07:220:07:25

They're just so confused.

0:07:250:07:26

You're meant to be doing the calculations.

0:07:260:07:28

Stop, I need a clear understanding of costs.

0:07:280:07:31

You can't keep the clients waiting!

0:07:310:07:32

-ALL TALK AT ONCE OVER PHONE

-Are they for real?

0:07:320:07:35

So we've got more order, I'm going to put Bushra in charge of numbers.

0:07:350:07:38

Why put Bushra, who doesn't drink, in charge of ordering wine?

0:07:380:07:42

Quick question, roughly how many glasses can you get out of one bottle?

0:07:420:07:46

21, I think, yeah.

0:07:460:07:48

I think we've ordered 20 bottles of wine, which is

0:07:490:07:51

about eight classes each. To me, that sounds like a lot.

0:07:510:07:54

Siobhan is supposed to be in this business.

0:07:540:07:57

I can't believe that if she is profitable that she does it like they did.

0:07:570:08:01

For me, it's more about making the client happy.

0:08:010:08:04

-No, this is about making me happy, you know?

-I know.

0:08:040:08:07

You said that your strategy was to get them relaxed

0:08:070:08:10

and lower their expectations.

0:08:100:08:12

Does that translate as get them hammered?

0:08:120:08:15

No, I think it came across as wrong.

0:08:150:08:16

It came across as, "Let's get 'em trolleyed, they'll be too drunk

0:08:160:08:19

to complain!" That's what it came across as! LAUGHTER

0:08:190:08:22

It probably did actually. Actually, once they've had a couple of drinks,

0:08:220:08:26

they hopefully can enjoy the evening more.

0:08:260:08:28

And if there are a couple of things that aren't perfect...

0:08:280:08:31

They'll be too drunk to notice. LAUGHTER

0:08:310:08:33

-Too relaxed to notice!

-Well, they'd enjoy it

0:08:330:08:35

and go away with the end feeling they'd had a fun time.

0:08:350:08:38

Even Bushra, who doesn't drink, Frances,

0:08:380:08:40

thought that it sounded too much.

0:08:400:08:41

Should Siobhan have put somebody else in charge of the numbers on drink, what do you make of it?

0:08:410:08:45

Yeah, I mean, to be fair to Siobhan,

0:08:450:08:47

she put Bushra in charge of numbers, not just ordering the wine,

0:08:470:08:50

which is the full picture, the food, the entertainment, and everything as well.

0:08:500:08:54

Erm, even I think a bottle and a half a head was probably too much!

0:08:540:08:57

And I think that overspend was where you lost the task.

0:08:580:09:01

But you ended up, you probably should have taken that task yourself

0:09:010:09:05

because you ended up doing it, but on the back foot,

0:09:050:09:07

where at the last-minute, there weren't any tangible numbers,

0:09:070:09:10

so, yeah, I think Bushra was a mistake there

0:09:100:09:12

and you should have kept hold of that task yourself.

0:09:120:09:14

-Sally, you've been to a few parties. In a good way.

-In a good way!

0:09:140:09:18

-I like a party!

-What did you make of Siobhan's strategy?

0:09:180:09:22

I thought it was brilliant!

0:09:220:09:25

I thought it was lovely, you were really welcoming

0:09:250:09:28

and really smart when you came in.

0:09:280:09:30

And the food was fantastic.

0:09:300:09:32

There was no dire entertainment, which I can't stand.

0:09:320:09:35

Apart from Bushra's speech!

0:09:350:09:37

Just sort of out of nowhere, like everybody's having a nice time

0:09:370:09:40

and then she appears and goes, "In 1966, Wembley..."

0:09:400:09:43

-LAUGHTER DROWNS SPEECH

-What is this?

0:09:430:09:45

-Can you all see her?

-I've not revised!

0:09:450:09:48

"Wembley Stadium was built in 1946..." Oh, God, please stop.

0:09:480:09:51

Please! Please! It's like a horrible Halloween trick.

0:09:510:09:54

LAUGHTER

0:09:540:09:56

Let's talk about that fatal phone call, as Lord Sugar put it.

0:09:560:09:58

I've never seen a buck passed so much. You blamed Elizabeth.

0:09:580:10:02

Bushra blamed Sarah Jayne and Jade.

0:10:020:10:03

Elizabeth blamed everybody in the Wembley postcode apart from herself.

0:10:030:10:07

LAUGHTER What was going on there?

0:10:070:10:09

I think where we really went wrong was the fact that

0:10:090:10:11

I did put Bushra on numbers and I said to her throughout,

0:10:110:10:14

"Make sure you get per head, per bottle," because I know how Elizabeth works.

0:10:140:10:17

Elizabeth is one of these people, she needs to know the numbers.

0:10:170:10:20

And that's how she works. And that's why I put her as sub team leader,

0:10:200:10:23

as I knew she'd be good for that.

0:10:230:10:24

And then all of a sudden, everyone was throwing out different figures

0:10:240:10:28

and then Bushra shouted out a figure.

0:10:280:10:29

And then Elizabeth was like, "What the hell's the figure?

0:10:290:10:32

-"What does it include?" You know?

-In summary, it's Bushra's fault.

0:10:320:10:36

No, but it is Bushra's, but at the same time,

0:10:360:10:38

I would never have taken Bushra in out of loyalty because she was

0:10:380:10:41

very supportive to me in the house and in other situations.

0:10:410:10:44

So, I would never have brought her in. And this is probably my downfall and that's probably why,

0:10:440:10:48

on that side of things. But that's just how I am.

0:10:480:10:50

Elizabeth clearly felt she went into that meeting blind,

0:10:500:10:53

that she wasn't armed with the information.

0:10:530:10:55

What should have happened in that situation?

0:10:550:10:57

The only thing she could do was exactly what she did do,

0:10:570:10:59

her best chance was to go in there, get the maximum budget,

0:10:590:11:02

whilst giving the least possible information.

0:11:020:11:04

And that's a really hard thing to do and I felt for her, going in

0:11:040:11:07

so unprepared, but actually, that's what she came out having achieved.

0:11:070:11:10

Maximum budget and all she said was, "It won't be a dry day, leave it with me."

0:11:100:11:14

So, she really sort of saved the day there by going,

0:11:140:11:17

-"Look, leave it with us."

-I think she did.

0:11:170:11:19

She did very well to come out without being

0:11:190:11:22

pinned down about exactly what was going to be delivered.

0:11:220:11:25

It was like an episode of EastEnders, wasn't it, Sally?

0:11:250:11:28

I don't know, I've never really seen EastEnders.

0:11:280:11:30

LAUGHTER

0:11:300:11:33

That is the diplomatic answer.

0:11:330:11:35

I think it was sort of, yeah, it was highly dramatic.

0:11:350:11:37

But I did feel for Elizabeth going on with no numbers at all.

0:11:370:11:41

Literally making it up, I think.

0:11:410:11:43

And the difference between how much they thought it was going to be

0:11:430:11:47

and how much they were prepared to pay was phenomenal.

0:11:470:11:51

I mean, she must've gone... "OK!"

0:11:510:11:54

Orange squash and biscuits, you know!

0:11:540:11:57

-Tom?

-Yeah?

-Think about this very carefully before answering.

-OK.

0:11:580:12:02

Before promising a client a free bar,

0:12:020:12:04

a duet with Justin Bieber and Elvis,

0:12:040:12:06

unlimited Chateauneuf-du-Pape - mille neuf cent quatre-vingt-six,

0:12:060:12:10

a free Ferrari with every baked Parmesan custard,

0:12:100:12:12

would you find out how much money they had first?

0:12:120:12:15

Er, well, I probably would've done.

0:12:150:12:17

I mean, I think the main problem with that meeting was,

0:12:170:12:20

British people are very polite and they love to save face.

0:12:200:12:23

So, I think anybody in that situation would have been

0:12:230:12:26

terrified, terrified of that woman there because after the end of it,

0:12:260:12:29

she eventually, when they went, like, "So, you want all of these things and you've got £2,500?"

0:12:290:12:33

And the woman just went...

0:12:330:12:35

LAUGHTER

0:12:350:12:38

I think she's been taking lessons off Karren Brady.

0:12:380:12:40

You know, that's all Karren Brady does.

0:12:400:12:42

She barely says anything in any episode, all she does is go...

0:12:420:12:45

-It's powerful, though. It's powerful.

-It's very powerful, she's built a whole business empire on that.

0:12:450:12:50

People who work for Karren Brady, they're like, "Er, Baroness Brady,

0:12:500:12:53

"would you like a sandwich for lunch?" And she just goes...

0:12:530:12:56

-And then they're dead!

-LAUGHTER

0:12:570:13:00

Well, in the boys' box, the limited number of amuse bouches

0:13:000:13:03

were amusing a limited number of bouches.

0:13:030:13:06

While in the girls' box, the unlimited booze was amusing everyone.

0:13:060:13:09

All that they needed was some top-notch entertainment.

0:13:090:13:13

Are you hosting a corporate event? Need an entertainer?

0:13:130:13:16

Then look no further than The Appr-entertainers!

0:13:160:13:19

We provide entertainment for all events.

0:13:190:13:22

Cheer the mood with a fun-packed sing-along!

0:13:220:13:24

# And now, the end is near... #

0:13:240:13:28

That's too quiet, innit?

0:13:280:13:30

Blow them away with one of our engaging public speakers!

0:13:300:13:33

I don't know if any of you know Geoff Hurst?

0:13:330:13:36

-Yeah?

-And new for 2017, our executive catering service.

0:13:380:13:42

We got a lot here for £4.80, didn't we?

0:13:420:13:44

The Appr-entertainers, let us Appr-entertain you today!

0:13:440:13:48

APPLAUSE

0:13:480:13:51

-You're a massive football fan, Tom, as I know.

-Yes, sport, I love it. I love it.

0:13:540:13:58

-I love both the ends and...

-LAUGHTER

0:13:580:14:00

I don't know that much about football

0:14:000:14:02

but what were you going to ask?

0:14:020:14:04

I was going to ask you which hospitality suite

0:14:040:14:06

you would have preferred to have been in?

0:14:060:14:09

Well, I like Twiglets as much as the next man.

0:14:090:14:11

But I don't think I would have very much liked being in the boys' suite.

0:14:110:14:16

I know they ran dry, but you would have felt like you were drunk

0:14:160:14:19

by the time Harrison got up and just did that awful singing.

0:14:190:14:21

Like, what? Am I imagining this sort of huge man

0:14:210:14:24

doing this terrible rendition of My Way, like, reading out the words?

0:14:240:14:28

"And now..." Everybody knows the words of My Way!

0:14:280:14:31

I think I would much rather have been in the girls' suite, yes.

0:14:310:14:34

Let's talk about the teamwork on the girls' side -

0:14:340:14:37

if I can call it teamwork...

0:14:370:14:39

It hasn't always appeared to be that teamworky!

0:14:390:14:43

-What's been your take on that?

-You know, I think the thing is,

0:14:430:14:46

everything's heightened a little bit because we're all living together,

0:14:460:14:49

we're all put under incredible pressure to get the job done,

0:14:490:14:53

even myself, you know, for me, it's never been personal,

0:14:530:14:55

nothing about anything, I just want to win the task, you know?

0:14:550:14:58

It's not about, you know, and probably I'm not the easiest

0:14:580:15:01

person to work with because I've always worked on my own.

0:15:010:15:04

Well, I've worked in a male dominated environment

0:15:040:15:06

probably my whole life, and I think, women get bitchy.

0:15:060:15:09

I'm not saying I do. I don't. I'm just saying, for me...

0:15:090:15:12

-LAUGHTER

-Oh, I don't know!

0:15:120:15:13

No, I think, for me, I call a spade a spade,

0:15:130:15:16

-I try and keep it real.

-Keep digging!

0:15:160:15:17

-Talking of spades...

-Take it in the hand, dig, dig, dig my hardest.

0:15:170:15:21

I think, with all due respect, it depends on the women

0:15:210:15:24

and I think, with all due respect, it depends on the men,

0:15:240:15:27

because I've worked in a male-dominated environment

0:15:270:15:30

and you get a bunch of male actors together and they are the bitchiest

0:15:300:15:33

people ever, so I think that's a bit of a sweeping statement.

0:15:330:15:36

I think these particular women... a few of them

0:15:360:15:40

wound each other up the wrong way.

0:15:400:15:42

In everyday life, you know, if you have an argument with somebody,

0:15:420:15:45

you can walk away and see them the next day.

0:15:450:15:47

It's like at work, but we're so... we have fire-ups with everybody

0:15:470:15:50

and arguments, but then we just have to get on with it, really, so...

0:15:500:15:54

How hard is it in that house and being in this process?

0:15:540:15:57

It's really, really hard.

0:15:570:15:58

In particular, for me, I suppose, I found it very hard.

0:15:580:16:00

I live in London as well and it was quite hard for me every day

0:16:000:16:04

driving past the restaurant that I go to with my best friend.

0:16:040:16:07

-It was just...

-Were you literally driving past your home,

0:16:070:16:09

-going, "Boo-hoo-hoo!"

-And driving past my house as well.

0:16:090:16:12

It was probably easier for the people that were coming

0:16:120:16:14

from up north or from other places or who don't actually

0:16:140:16:17

live in London, but for me it was so hard just in the fact

0:16:170:16:20

that my family was so close yet so far

0:16:200:16:22

and I have a small daughter, four years old, so I really struggled.

0:16:220:16:25

Did she wave as you drove past in the big van?

0:16:250:16:28

"She's coming home, she's coming home, she's not..."

0:16:300:16:33

"Bye-bye, van, bye-bye, van, bye-bye..."

0:16:330:16:35

"See on Wednesday at nine, Mummy!"

0:16:350:16:37

Siobhan, you and Elizabeth,

0:16:390:16:41

not exactly best friends through this process, but after the boardroom

0:16:410:16:44

this week, you made up in gloriously awkward fashion.

0:16:440:16:48

Let's remind ourselves, shall we?

0:16:490:16:51

Yes, join us live in the boardroom as Elizabeth

0:16:550:16:57

and Joanna make their way to the dressing room.

0:16:570:17:00

Oh-ho!

0:17:000:17:02

Elizabeth has sold Siobhan a dummy there.

0:17:020:17:04

Let's take a look at the replay.

0:17:040:17:06

Elizabeth shakes to go to the right,

0:17:060:17:08

then at the very last minute performs a hug.

0:17:080:17:10

Siobhan can't believe it and is left sick as a parrot.

0:17:100:17:13

That's classic Apprentice.

0:17:130:17:15

We have the same thing.

0:17:190:17:21

-We had exactly the same thing.

-Oh, dear!

0:17:210:17:24

Let's talk about some of the other candidates.

0:17:240:17:27

-Jade had a big week.

-Yeah, she's very good.

0:17:270:17:30

She's been pretty good at selling throughout, to be honest.

0:17:300:17:34

You know, she's very good at it, she just gets out there

0:17:340:17:36

and gets the deal done. She's good at that.

0:17:360:17:38

Frances, it's still early days,

0:17:380:17:40

but did Jade make you sit up and take notice this week?

0:17:400:17:42

Yeah, absolutely, I've noticed her before, she can clearly sell,

0:17:420:17:47

she's got a good work ethic,

0:17:470:17:49

I'd like to see that she's got some other skills as well

0:17:490:17:51

and she's not too much of a one-trick pony,

0:17:510:17:54

-but, yeah, I like her.

-Joanna, well, a tricky week.

0:17:540:17:57

She hadn't had a proper chance to sell, but Elizabeth said,

0:17:570:18:00

"Well, you have had your chance and you said you couldn't do it."

0:18:000:18:03

-It was frustrating for her, I think.

-Yeah, no, I think she wants to be

0:18:030:18:06

out there and she's a good salesperson as well

0:18:060:18:07

and she's very good at articulating herself, so, yeah,

0:18:070:18:10

I think she just wanted to be out there. I think that's the thing

0:18:100:18:12

and she felt a bit restricted, so, you know,

0:18:120:18:14

hopefully in the next few weeks, she'll succeed.

0:18:140:18:16

I really like Joanna, I think she's got lots of potential which has yet

0:18:160:18:19

to be seen on the screen and I felt really sorry for her

0:18:190:18:23

because I think we've all had those days where you want it to go

0:18:230:18:25

better, you want to be involved, but you're just tired and exhausted.

0:18:250:18:28

You've been living with all these people for so long,

0:18:280:18:31

but what I would say, there is nothing funnier

0:18:310:18:34

than watching somebody make candyfloss miserably.

0:18:340:18:36

I just want to go out and sell it! I just want to go out and sell it!

0:18:430:18:47

-It's an interesting juxtaposition.

-Do you want candyfloss?! No.

0:18:470:18:52

Frances, she evidently had a bad week,

0:18:530:18:55

Lord Sugar said next week he wants her to be project manager.

0:18:550:18:57

Do you think she'll come back fighting?

0:18:570:18:59

Well, I hope she doesn't come back fighting,

0:18:590:19:01

cos that's half the problem. They need to not be fighting.

0:19:010:19:04

Do you think she'll come back not fighting?

0:19:040:19:06

I think it's going to be fascinating.

0:19:060:19:08

Next week, critical week for the girls.

0:19:080:19:10

They've absolutely got to sort it out.

0:19:100:19:12

They've got to stop shouting over each other and fighting.

0:19:120:19:15

Um...

0:19:150:19:16

It will be very interesting to see how Joanna as project manager

0:19:170:19:22

manages that and don't miss it.

0:19:220:19:24

I won't be.

0:19:240:19:26

Sally, are you a Joanna fan?

0:19:260:19:27

Well, to be fair, she's not struck me as anything...

0:19:270:19:31

"Oh, she's going to be amazing,"

0:19:310:19:33

but I did think it was unfair of her to say,

0:19:330:19:35

"I just want to shine, I've not been given the chance,"

0:19:350:19:37

cos she was given a chance and she did come back and say,

0:19:370:19:40

"Look, they're just looking at me like I'm stupid,

0:19:400:19:42

"saying it's £4 a bag," so...

0:19:420:19:45

And also if she was so upset and so riled about it,

0:19:450:19:48

I would have just gone,

0:19:480:19:49

"Right, can you just do this for a minute, Elizabeth?

0:19:490:19:51

"I'm going to go out there and try again." And she didn't.

0:19:510:19:54

-She just kept sort of moaning.

-Exactly.

0:19:540:19:57

Well, project managing Team Vitality to their historic first win

0:19:570:20:01

was Andrew.

0:20:010:20:02

After a relatively quiet few weeks,

0:20:020:20:04

where it seemed like he wouldn't say boo to a goose,

0:20:040:20:07

this week the geese were sent flying as he burst out of his cage

0:20:070:20:09

like a gorilla in a fitted suit... I mean, like a man on a mission.

0:20:090:20:13

Welcome to Andrew In The Wild.

0:20:130:20:17

Ah, yes, see how Andrew and the rest of the pack groom themselves

0:20:190:20:24

in preparation for another potential mauling at the hands of the females.

0:20:240:20:28

As alpha male, he uses facial expressions

0:20:280:20:31

to assert dominance over the pack,

0:20:310:20:33

as well as physical displays of strength and an unusual roar.

0:20:330:20:38

Rarrgh!

0:20:380:20:39

Come on! Are we going to win this?!

0:20:390:20:41

As pack leader, Andrew leads the way to the hunt.

0:20:410:20:45

Oh, my God.

0:20:450:20:46

And after facing down a rival pack, the male emerges victorious.

0:20:520:20:58

Yes!

0:20:580:21:00

I think, like, Andrew as well, he's so alpha all the time,

0:21:060:21:09

he's so trying to prove how, like, macho he is.

0:21:090:21:11

At one point they were saying, "What about sushi as a canape?"

0:21:110:21:15

and he was so repulsed by it.

0:21:150:21:16

He was like, "Oh, to be honest,

0:21:160:21:18

"I think sushi's more of a London fashion concept

0:21:180:21:21

"and it's not really...

0:21:210:21:22

"People don't really like it, it's just in London, sushi."

0:21:220:21:25

I want to say, "Andrew, you're so stupid!

0:21:250:21:27

"Don't you know sushi is from Japan?"

0:21:270:21:29

It didn't just get invented by, like, posh soft Londoners, going,

0:21:300:21:34

"Oh, no, just a bit of raw fish, that will do me, thanks."

0:21:340:21:37

Oh, I found him... Oh, he's driving me mad.

0:21:370:21:40

I've got to say, Rhod, he's driving me mental, that one.

0:21:400:21:43

I think somebody's given him a book on how alpha male

0:21:430:21:46

business people work and behave and he's actually read it.

0:21:460:21:50

He's like the Wolf of Wall Street but really

0:21:500:21:52

he's like a Wolf Cub of Wall Street.

0:21:520:21:54

He's doing this 1985 standard

0:21:540:21:56

of what he thinks is an alpha male and it's absolutely...

0:21:560:21:59

Like that thing when he does, "Shall we do it, team?

0:21:590:22:01

-"Shall we do it, team?"

-Oh, yeah.

-And you just go, "Shut up!"

0:22:010:22:04

Controversial, but to play devil's advocate, does that work?

0:22:040:22:08

People seem to be responding to it. They've won the task.

0:22:080:22:11

He does sort of motivate them, and at the end, they all went,

0:22:110:22:13

-"Yeah, he's been good."

-Really?

-I mean, can that alpha...

0:22:130:22:17

I know what my team would say to me if I start behaving like that.

0:22:170:22:20

I can't repeat it here, but it wouldn't be motivational.

0:22:200:22:23

Well, Siobhan, unfortunately, Lord Sugar won't be investing in you,

0:22:250:22:29

but he does have this advice for your future.

0:22:290:22:32

Well, Siobhan is a well-travelled lady.

0:22:330:22:35

She's used to putting on events in Dubai and things like that.

0:22:350:22:40

I think where Siobhan went wrong on the task was that she over-ordered

0:22:400:22:45

a lot of the alcohol, whereas the other team under-ordered

0:22:450:22:49

but, as and when they ran out,

0:22:490:22:50

they went off and replenished their stocks.

0:22:500:22:53

This task was kind of tailor-made for Siobhan

0:22:530:22:55

but I think for the future, what she has to do is keep her eye

0:22:550:22:58

on the costs and the consumables, such as alcohol,

0:22:580:23:02

and if she does that, she should do all right.

0:23:020:23:04

-Good advice?

-Um, you know, it's...

0:23:060:23:09

Um... I... I mean...

0:23:090:23:13

-I think...

-No?

0:23:150:23:18

No, I agree with some of what he was saying,

0:23:180:23:20

but I think I did a good job and I gave over...

0:23:200:23:23

They walked away happy and I made money.

0:23:230:23:25

That's what I need to get over, I made money and I think hopefully

0:23:250:23:28

my clients will continue to be happy with the way I work.

0:23:280:23:31

What was your business plan?

0:23:310:23:33

So I'm looking to expand my wedding planning business into China,

0:23:330:23:36

so I'm looking to grow the Chinese market

0:23:360:23:38

for Chinese looking to get married in Dubai.

0:23:380:23:41

Well, Lord Sugar made his decision -

0:23:410:23:43

does our panel think it was the right one? Frances?

0:23:430:23:45

Well, I think there's quite a few candidates that could've gone,

0:23:450:23:48

-but, yeah, I do agree with him this week.

-Sally?

0:23:480:23:51

No, I don't think she should have gone at all.

0:23:510:23:53

I thought you were great.

0:23:530:23:54

-Tom?

-No, I don't think Siobhan should have gone. I think there's loads

0:23:540:23:58

of people who should have gone before her.

0:23:580:24:00

Like, what about James? Has anyone even heard from...?

0:24:000:24:02

I didn't know who he was. He cropped up this week

0:24:020:24:05

and I thought he was the chef who was the prize on the first week.

0:24:050:24:07

I was like, "Who's that? What's he doing there, mincing around?"

0:24:070:24:10

And I was like, "There's lots of people who've been a lot more bland,

0:24:100:24:13

"a lot more uninspiring," so I think it was a real shock.

0:24:130:24:16

It was a very exciting episode to watch,

0:24:160:24:19

but it was really frustrating, actually.

0:24:190:24:20

-I think you were great.

-Tom, this is a no?

0:24:200:24:22

-I think Siobhan should have stayed.

-OK, thanks, well, good so far.

0:24:240:24:28

It's time to find out what our audience thinks.

0:24:280:24:31

If you agree with Lord Sugar, then hold up "fired".

0:24:310:24:33

If you disagree, hold up "hired" now, please.

0:24:330:24:36

-Oh, wow!

-Really split.

-Oh, wowser.

0:24:370:24:40

Oh, wowser.

0:24:400:24:41

That's as close as it gets, Siobhan. Look at you, busy counting.

0:24:410:24:45

Now she's on the numbers, now she's on the numbers.

0:24:470:24:50

-Ladies and gentlemen, it is green.

-Oh, that's good.

0:24:500:24:54

You are hired.

Back in you go, back in you go.

0:25:010:25:03

You've been a great sport. Thanks for coming on the show, Siobhan.

0:25:050:25:08

Let's have a look at your highlights.

0:25:080:25:09

Right, let's get going.

0:25:090:25:11

Siobhan. Very nice to meet you.

0:25:110:25:12

Siobhan is someone who I didn't expect to warm to, actually,

0:25:120:25:17

but I love her quirks.

0:25:170:25:19

Don't...don't touch that.

0:25:200:25:22

Although she has this hard exterior, she's got a soft heart.

0:25:220:25:25

Whatever's happened, we need to just let it go, let it go, let it go.

0:25:250:25:30

Siobhan actually doesn't realise how funny she is.

0:25:300:25:33

I spend a lot of time at these kind of hotels

0:25:330:25:36

and in particular in the hotel rooms.

0:25:360:25:38

The fact that she wears her heart on her sleeve, tells you what it is.

0:25:380:25:42

-Sinead...

-It's not Sinead.

0:25:420:25:44

-It's Siobhan.

-Oh, sorry.

0:25:440:25:45

If you don't remember it, don't say it.

0:25:450:25:47

Siobhan, I love you, girl.

0:25:470:25:49

-That was nice.

-Yeah, very nice.

-"I love you, girl."

0:25:570:26:00

So no-one leaves this show empty-handed, Siobhan.

0:26:000:26:04

We managed to get a lovely evening card for you

0:26:040:26:09

and get it signed by some of your fellow candidates.

0:26:090:26:12

It's goodbye, good luck, just one bottle of champagne -

0:26:120:26:15

disappointing, I realise. There it is.

0:26:150:26:17

We've even got from Lord Sugar here.

0:26:170:26:19

"Siobhan, I've changed my mind! Come back to the house!

0:26:190:26:21

"Only joking! You're still fired.

0:26:210:26:23

"LOL, LMAO, Lord Sugar, mwah."

0:26:240:26:28

Elizabeth, look,

0:26:290:26:30

"Who's going to stop me faffling in the future with you gone?

0:26:300:26:33

"Good luck, Sinead."

0:26:330:26:34

I really don't like that.

0:26:350:26:36

"So sorry we never got a chance to work with you.

0:26:360:26:39

"We love a good piss up!" from the boys. They're all on there.

0:26:390:26:43

-Take that with our thanks for coming on the show.

-Thank you very much.

0:26:430:26:46

Unfortunately, as well, Siobhan,

0:26:460:26:47

I think I made the same mistake as you did,

0:26:470:26:49

because I asked for... Well, I didn't know how many cards to get

0:26:490:26:53

and I just think I may have slightly over-ordered on the cards,

0:26:530:26:57

so feel free to take as many of those as you can.

0:26:570:27:00

Siobhan, Siobhan, there you go.

0:27:000:27:03

-So, ladies and gentlemen, Siobhan Smith.

-Thank you.

0:27:030:27:06

And last but not least, thanks to tonight's Apprentice fans

0:27:070:27:10

and guests, Frances Dickens, Sally Lindsay and Tom Allen.

0:27:100:27:13

Join us next week when the teams scrabble about London to find

0:27:150:27:19

all the right presents for Lord Sugar's 70th birthday celebration.

0:27:190:27:22

Who will be the party poppers and who will be the party poopers?

0:27:220:27:26

Your task today is all about acquiring nine items

0:27:260:27:31

which mark some of the milestones of my life and career.

0:27:310:27:36

In, price, out, bam!

0:27:360:27:38

We're heading north, aren't we?

0:27:380:27:39

Well, the thing is, though, ultimately, we're heading...

0:27:390:27:42

Yeah, we're heading N.

0:27:420:27:43

Doe, a deer, a female deer.

0:27:430:27:46

Oh!

0:27:460:27:48

They're going around like headless chickens.

0:27:480:27:50

Do we want to go to Lewisham?

0:27:500:27:51

Are you asking me or are you putting any input

0:27:510:27:53

or are you trying to stray away from actually making a decision yourself?

0:27:530:27:56

Let's go. Let's go!

0:27:560:27:57

Come on, we have to get a good price, one that works for me.

0:27:570:28:00

Go, go, go!

0:28:000:28:01

Thank you so much, thank you.

0:28:010:28:03

Go, go, go!

0:28:030:28:04

We can't control them, they're like wild animals.

0:28:040:28:06

Go on, Sarah!

0:28:060:28:07

BIG BEN CHIMES

0:28:080:28:09

Join me next Wednesday at 10 for more You're Fired. Goodnight.
