Oh why oh why didn't he sack that bladdy twerp Paul last night ? You know, the one who blathers and blames everyone else but himself. Who paces about and throws his arms in the air and blows his top if anyone DARE critisize? him. I agree that Ben was a wimpish team leader, and that Miriam went a bit mad with the (non - existant ) budget. But that guy is a definate candidate for a long drop form the top of Amstrad Towers !
I find I'm watching the prog. now longing to see him hear those magic words..."You're fired!"

Haven't watched it yet, but I suspect that "ratings advisers" have had a word in AS' shellike to keep Paul & the Asian girl in as long as possible since they make more "interesting" viewing.

I mean, it works - you're watching it to see him fall!

Just an idea

Paul is good TV as is Saira, hence they're still in the prog. It's easy to see who's up for the push as each prog develops as the editing always singles out a few critical moments.
(Can't believe they spent £63 on cheese at my local farm shoppe, when Savacentre is only two miles away !)

fire saira.

james should win it, no question.

I normally hate reality tv shows but I have to say it is one of the best put together programmes I have ever seen.

definitely among the best tv at the mo.

Raj has got to go too, he argues like a child.

Miriam should go soon simply because women should not be 6ft 4! although she has a great pair of cans!

Agreed, her cans are top dollar.

I like Paul, at least he has got some gonads, the rest, aside from Saira, are weak. He is also good TV, lets be honest the rest are pretty dull.

Mind you, James' donkey impression was spot on last night. Makes you wonder what he gets up to in his spare time.

Paul is sharp, funny, quick, and most importantly, stands up to "Sir Alan" which I think takes some guts.

Black guy (Tim I think) to win though.

I tend to agree that Paul has too short a fuse to be an effective all rounder, and can't handle critisism.

I think SA got it about right, although it must have been a close decision.

Ben accepted the team leader role at Paul's suggestion and it cost him.
While he did fail to manage the team's budget, I think SA's comment at the very end that Ben hadn't "shown me anything yet" was somewhat unfair.

Wasn't it Ben that nailed a free motorbike and 50 Chicago tickets in the previous episode?

Anyway, as reality TV shows go, this one is unmissable IMHO

Personally i think SA should sack the lot of them and hire me instead, i'd do a far better job and the lot of them combined

Talking

it's fascinating to see we all react differently to these people.

i like paul - he's gutsy & street - the way he manoeuvred ben to his doom last night was magnificent self-preservation.

it's between paul & saira i'm sure - gripping stuff. paul to win. saira's a walking cliche out of her depth. ag.

miriam. lordy. amazonian ain't the word.
