I actually liked the boxing and it was a worthy winner, everything she did she had the right vision and knew how to promote and design her gym.

It has been a poor season and the ideas arn't the best but we watch it for the crap!


How laughably poor Avi is has been this series one saving grace in my opinion :lol: I really didn’t think Marnie’s was great, it just wasn’t as bad as Rochelle’s….


Avi has been a great source of entertainment

I am sure they could find people with at least some business acumen for the next series, I don’t see how any of the finalists had any ideas that were realistically scalable

Don’t know what the obsession is with Ramsay, all his programmes flop (aside from that travel one with Gino and Fred, which can be entertaining).


Ramsey is on some poor programmes in my opinion, this one was quite decent last year though.

I thought it was too, will be giving it a try at least.

I'm surprised to see it back as I assumed nobody watched it but I liked it.

I’ll be catching up on this this afternoon, in the trailer for it, it says that one episode they have to create a Formula E team, that’s going to be a must watch, one team will be utterly dire and make Haas look like a competent F1 team :lol:

Watching this now, hope the two supposed DJs try and perform only to fail :lol:

I'm already guessing the blokes lose.

Edit, the fishcakes :fp: :slol: The flourless brownies :lol: How are people so bad at such tasks :lol:

Edit, this is an absolute car crash :lol: Lord Sugar could be calling them all the names under the sun and they'd still laugh and smile at him :slol:

Last edit, that guy who started clapping when they were told the client asked for a 52% refund :lol:

I'm hoping he'll be around for at least a few weeks, as we need the chance to enjoy more of his idiocy. :lol:

How you serve corporate clients fish crumble and win the task, I will never know.

These early tasks have been something of a setup for years. It appears to be deliberately structured so that there's very little budget gap between what the teams need to spend and what the 'corporate client' is willing to spend.

The mistakes in the kitchen are probably partially the result of the setup too. Whilst forgetting to put eggs in a brownie mix seems daft, chucking a group of people who dont know each other in a commercial kitchen isn't likely to go well. Especially if they are given vague instructions, tight timescales and confusing machinery.

I enjoyed the episode, but it would be nice to have some where the contestants look competent!

The silly neighbourhood vegetable.
