The Official Apprentice Thread: Series 5, Week 11: The One with the Final Five.

Topics

***Mrs BBV***

As this year's series of The Apprentice draws to a close and the tension mounts, this programme profiles the remaining five candidates.

Revealing the true stories behind their super-confident egos, we discover what really makes these budding business men and women tick.

Parents, friends and former bosses, along with Sir Alan's trusted aides Nick Hewer and Margaret Mountford, discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the final five personalities.

I love, love, love this episode and stage of the process.

My prediction for firing is James and Lorraine and Kate. 'My instinct' is telling me that this is a Debra / Yasmina final now. But I'm usually wrong.....

Don't forget BBC 1, 9.00 p.m. and BBC 2 at 10.00 p.m. for You're Fired.

Good evening MrsBBV.

Good morning Sugarettes.

I too am really looking forward to this interview episode.

I saw Philip on tv today, and heard Philip saying he is still with Kate now.

Evening Sugarettes

I hope this is going to be good - usually I love this interview week, but last year I thought the interviewers were awful, really aggressive and didn't give the candidates any chance to talk at all.

Evening all - looking forward to the interviews tonight. Might not post much tonight - having a new kitchen and bathroom fitted this week and the only habitable room is the bedroom at the moment! Watching on the portable and not comfy with the lappy in bed!

, i'm hoping Debra messes up and gets fired

. James and Kate out of them fit the typical category Sir Alan normally goes for judging by the past winners.

Do you wear your keys out too Capt?

I bought one of those keyboard skins on eBay. Best investment I ever made. It was only 99p plus p&p but it came from China so p&p was £1.69 but, even so, still cheap.

Oh, Kathy, what a pain BUT, never mind, the end result will have been worth the inconvenience.

There were points at which they ALL sounded like the most likely to win. Which I suppose is not too surprising really as they were all selected in the first place.

Oh, well done.

Why not invest in one of the keyboard skins though? It doesn't affect the keys at all as they are so fine but it does protect them from wear and tear, and they're washable too.
