Last night's episode of the Apprentice was another corker!The task was to set up a photographic business in the Bluewater shopping centre, take pictures, sell them and make a profit. Easy!
There were many many priceless moments. Lucinda (Tim "nice but dim's" sister surely?) announcing that she had never used a digital camera and could not even take a photo with her mobile phone. Yes, you guessed it, she was given the job which only involved technology with the expected comedy moments.
Then there was Simon who volunteered to lead his team (Sir Alan mixed the teams up this week) because his best mate was a photographer and he knew a thing or two. Simon became the living embodiment of "pride comes before a fall"
My favourite moment was when one team decided to use "look-a-likes" and during the auditions one girl turned up as a Britney look-a-like in a tight red vinyl cat suit. Sir Alan's side kick Nick did a facial double take of which Leslie Phillips would have been proud (Ding dong!). It's those moments of camera work that make this such a great show.
While both teams were fairly successful at taking photo's, neither could then get them out of the camera onto whichever medium the punter had chosen. And when they could they put them on upside down (step forward Raef, who clearly would normally have staff to perform such tasks).
The end result was that Simon's team made a loss and the other team didn't, so exit stage left for Simon (after a bit of argy-bargy in the boardroom) and Sir Alan sending Claire home for an early bath. "Get out" he said making us all think she was fired "get back the house". What a tease he is!
Next week they make ice cream....
