I actually do, but... 58 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,000 Not that much normally. 59 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,000 That was you looking extremely happy when you got fired there. 60 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,000 Yeah, you're right. Yeah, I smiled a lot. 61 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,000 Obviously, I felt that it was the right choice 62 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,000 for Lord Sugar to fire me first, because, my God, I went in 63 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,000 and changed my whole business plan in front of him. 64 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,000 So it wasn't a surprise? No, it wasn't a shock to me, like, 65 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,000 I knew I was out the door. Yeah. Yeah. 66 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,000 Ricky, you've been through this process, what is it like? 67 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,000 It is a hell of a lot harder than I think anyone has any idea. It's... 68 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,000 You've got ten weeks' worth of getting absolutely battered 69 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,000 week after week, and you want to give it your A-game, 70 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,000 but you're probably on your Z-game. 71 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,000 So it's really hard. So, anyone even to get there has done well. 72 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,000 So, well done. Thank you very much. 73 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,000 Mark, when Grainne was questioned about her previous business stuff 74 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,000 and her business plan, she said... 75 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,000 I think the words you used were, "I've been spendy happy." 76 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,000 If you're getting ?250,000 from Lord Sugar, 77 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,000 he probably doesn't want you to be spendy happy. 78 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,000 That will make him spendy unhappy. 79 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,000 If you won... If you won that money, I mean, 80 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,000 you could go out and buy an expensive tailored suit 81 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,000 or, like, a natty polka-dot tie, 82 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,000 but I think he would really frown upon that one, really. 83 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:02,000 Yeah, well, do you know what? He loves the tie. OK. 84 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,000 Well, one long day, 85 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,000 five nervous candidates and four terrifying face-to-face 86 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,000 interviews that make Jeremy Paxman look like Barry Chuckle. 87 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,000 Let's see where it all went wrong for Grainne. 88 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:14,000 Grainne, I'm a little bit confused about your idea. 89 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,000 You want to be an agency for beauty counter staff. Yeah. 90 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,000 You want to be an agency for make-up artists. OK. 91 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,000 You want to run a physical and online store. 92 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,000 It's just too much in one go. 93 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,000 So she is maybe shooting too high there? 94 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:29,000 I am half qualified... 95 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,000 You're not even qualified yet? Nope. 96 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,000 Not certified yet. 97 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,000 Sounds like I might need certifying 98 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,000 to actually invest in this, then. 99 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,000 You said those interviews are worse than childbirth. Yes. 100 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,000 Mike, Linda and Claudine are in our audience. 101 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,000 Mike, contractions times 20 worse than childbirth? 102 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,000 I guess that's a fair enough analogy. 103 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,000 You're going to take that comment? 104 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,000 Linda, Grainne's business plan, 105 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,000 where...an online and retail store, 106 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,000 you want to be the managing director, be the brand, 107 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,000 do all the training, do all the make-up yourself. 108 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,000 Do it all. You are going to clean. I was going to take over the world. 109 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,000 Did you think she tried to take on too much there? Yeah. 110 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:12,000 I think her problem was there was four or five parts to Grainne's 111 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,000 proposed business with Lord Sugar, 112 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,000 but she had no experience in any of them, bar one. 113 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,000 I think that was her downfall. 114 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,000 Yeah. I agree. 115 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,000 LAUGHTER 116 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,000 I totally agree.

Where... 120 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,000 I don't know quite how to put it. How would you put it diplomatically? 121 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,000 Drunk.

Bladdered, you got bladdered. 125 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,000 I think it was the scent in the distillery, 126 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,000 it wasn't the actual sipping. Yeah. It could've been that. Could've. 127 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,000 Let's go with that one. Yeah, let's go with that.

Yeah, he's right. 180 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,000 And, you know, I'm chuffed with the words that he said cos 181 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,000 I know I worked very hard through every task, 182 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,000 so I'm very happy with that, yeah. 183 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,000 Well, he decided, you agree with him, 184 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,000 let's see what the panel thinks. Ricky. 185 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,000 I think you're a standout candidate, 186 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,000 but your business plan wasn't worth a quarter of a million pounds. 187 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:37,000 So, it was the right decision.

Erm... 378 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:09,000 I would just get so nervous, and then I just used to waffle. 379 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,000 But, Lord Sugar made his decision - 380 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,000 but does our panel think it's the right one? 381 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,000 Ricky? Based on that business plan, it was the right decision. Yeah. 382 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,000 Matt? I'm sad to see you go. 383 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,000 I think you're one of the best Apprentice candidates of all time... 384 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,000 Oh, my God! Thank you! ..but, I think, on this occasion, 385 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:23,000 right decision. 386 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,000 I disagree. I think you'll be able to buy these people one day. 387 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,000 You're my new PF - personal fave. 388 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:34,000 So, it's time to find out what our audience thinks. 389 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,000 If you agree with Lord Sugar, hold up "Fired". 390 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,000 If you disagree, hold up "Hired," now, please. 391 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,000 That's tight. That is close. It's definitely hired, Rhod. 392 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,000 I think you might be right. I think you might be... 393 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,000 I like the way you wore a suggestive green dress, 394 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:51,000 to try and subliminally project your messages. 395 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,000 It is green!

I want a big business. 439 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:11,000 I wish you the best of luck, but I'm not going to be investing in you. 440 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,000 You're fired. Thank you.

I'm over it. 445 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,000 You said in the taxi you have a bright f... What was it you said? 446 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,000 "A bright, brilliant future"? 447 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:49,000 Yeah. I mean... You still feeling chipper? Yeah! I, you know... 448 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,000 Lord Sugar even said himself I've got a good business, 449 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,000 and that was known throughout the process. 450 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,000 And I love my business, and I love what I do, 451 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,000 and I can't wait to get started. 452 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:02,000 Yeah. Oh, well, crack on. Yeah, get on. 453 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,000 Er, well, ex-karate champion Frances 454 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:08,000 was the third and final candidate to get the chop this week, 455 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,000 so let's see how it happened. 456 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,000 You put in your application that you're really disorganised, 457 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,000 and your filing is in your handbag. 458 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,000 So, I previously had a business partner. 459 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,000 She did the accounts and the figure side. 460 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,000 Good. Well, I can see you miss her. 461 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:27,000 Your business plan says you've got two stores. You actually had three. 462 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:31,000 This business plan is trying to pretend that the mistakes 463 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,000 that you've made, they don't matter. 464 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,000 Well, they do matter. 465 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,000 Matt, did Frances sell herself...? 466 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,000 You seem very honest at times, 467 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,000 forgive me, but you were sort of, "Oh, I'm horrific at figures, 468 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,000 "I'm totally disorganised, all my filing's in my handbag" - 469 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,000 was that the most sensible thing to do, or was it...? 470 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,000 Well, I don't know. I think you're possibly too nice, Frances. 471 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:49,000 That's the thing. Aw! 472 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,000 You're too nice, you're too honest about these things. 473 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,000 The whole point of The Apprentice is you're meant to go on and say 474 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,000 that you're going to be a billion dollar unicorn, you know? 475 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,000 Yeah, yeah. Which is obviously the carpet standpoint. 476 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,000 I think to go on and say, "I'm human, I've made mistakes" - 477 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,000 I find that endearing, and that makes you seem trustworthy. 478 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,000 But, I guess in a situation where you're trying to fight 479 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,000 against all those other people, who aren't taking that approach, 480 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,000 it's a little bit difficult. 481 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,000 Sara, what's your CV like? Oh! 482 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,000 Does it lean to the over-honest, or the over-embellished? 483 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,000 I think maybe, similarly to Frances, my CV does have the truth on it. 484 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,000 Like, it does have all the places I have worked, 485 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,000 but also I'm always hoping that they do not ring any of those places, 486 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,000 and find out why they fired me. 487 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:32,000 Over to our interviewers - Linda, Frances said, and I quote, 488 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,000 "They tore me a new one". 489 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:40,000 Was that the intention? Not at all, I think I was very kind to Frances. 490 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,000 LAUGHTER 491 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,000 Love you, Linda. Now. 492 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,000 Let's look back at the process. 493 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,000 Matt, on the virtual reality task, 494 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,000 Frances had a real problem with suspending disbelief. 495 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:55,000 I mean, we can see it here. There were certain elements of it... 496 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,000 I mean, we were dealing with a virtual reality, 497 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,000 we were in space, we were badgers. 498 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,000 Frances was fine with most things, 499 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,000 but seemed to have a problem with one thing. 500 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,000 The branding is frankly pathetic. 501 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,000 What planet are they on? I mean, he's got a bloody quiff. 502 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,000 The badger's got a quiff! It's just embarrassing. 503 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,000 It's utterly embarrassing. 504 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,000 I was very angry, wasn't I? I know! 505 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:17,000 The one big problem you had was the badger's hairdo. I couldn't quite... 506 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:20,000 Would it have been all right if he'd had a centre parting? 507 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,000 Was it...? Yeah, I mean, I draw the line... 508 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,000 Or a Rachel, would that have been all right? 509 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:25,000 No, I just drew the line at a quiff. 510 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,000 I just think that you were in a bad mood about that badger, 511 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,000 because it seemed like Courtney and Jessica had just gone off, 512 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,000 had a lovely time, gone, "What's the craziest thing we can think of? 513 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,000 "A badger in space. That'll do, let's have the afternoon off." 514 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,000 And, actually, it was a good idea, as everyone said, in the end. 515 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,000 You've got to get on board with that quiff now, surely. 516 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,000 Yeah, I'm going to have to. 517 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,000 I mean, you know, I won a task, so I have to get on board with it, 518 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,000 cos I actually did win one, finally. 519 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,000 Well, Frances, unfortunately Lord Sugar won't be investing in you, 520 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:55,000 as you know. No. But he does have this advice for your future. 521 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:01,000 Frances started her own business, and she had multiple shops, 522 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,000 actually, and employed people already, 523 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,000 and I think that is very commendable. 524 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,000 Frances needs to stick to what she knows. 525 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,000 I think she needs to scale it up a bit. 526 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,000 She's got a great concept there, very determined young lady, 527 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,000 and I know that she will succeed 528 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:21,000 if she focuses primarily on building her business up. 529 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:28,000 Focus on scaling it up. Is that the plan? Yeah. Erm... 530 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,000 Next year, I want to open an additional two more shops, 531 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,000 and then get a warehouse, and... 532 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,000 Yeah, smash it! 533 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,000 Big plans. Smash it! Yeah, smash it! 534 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,000 Well, Frances, Lord Sugar made his decision, 535 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,000 but does our panel think it was the right one? Ricky? 536 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:43,000 I'd LIKE to disagree. 537 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:46,000 I actually think that the investment wasn't right for you 538 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,000 and your business proposition, either, so based upon that fact, 539 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:50,000 it was the right decision. 540 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,000 Matt? Despite losing most of the tasks, 541 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,000 you have been incredibly consistent, and I think... 542 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,000 LAUGHTER No, no, but I mean as... 543 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:02,000 Cos as a force for good on the teams that you've been on, 544 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:06,000 I think you probably should have been in that final. 545 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,000 Aw! Yeah! OK.
