Lee McQueen Wins Apprentice 2008

Tonight’s Apprentice result was a bit of a shocker for me, as I fully expected Claire Young to win.

Even after Lee and Claire won the aftershave challenge it seemed that she still had the upper hand as she had delivered such an amazing presentation and kept her cool throughout the task.

But tonight Sir Alan preferred Lee McQueen and although I was rooting for loud mouthed Claire, I can see the business strengths and talents that Lee possesses. I like that he is savvy without ever having the benefit of a priveledged education, Continue reading ‘Lee McQueen Wins Apprentice 2008‘ »

It is just over two hours now until we find out who will win this years Apprentice, but it seems as though Sir Alan Sugar may be already having second thoughts over previous candidates.

I think most of us were shocked when Sir Alan fired Raef a few weeks ago and held onto the useless Michael, and it seems that he is now admitting to a serious error in judgement.

‘When Raef went perhaps the right person to have gone should have been Michael. And then who knows what would have happened. Because when they went forward onto the car task Raef may have excelled in that suave and debonair way,’ said Sir Alan to Radio one.

The Apprentice Final: Trouble Brewing Between Alex and Helene!

Uh oh. It looks like there might be another row about to kick off in tonight’s Apprentice final.

Sneak Peek At The Apprentice FINAL!

I’m sure you already know that tonight’s Apprentice episode will be the last, and that out of the four remaining contestants we will finally find out which one Sir Alan Sugar wants to hire.

Have a look at this great clip from the show, where Lee is trying to direct a commercial shoot for a perfume. Is it just me, or does it sound like he is trying to direct a porn movie rather than a photo shoot?

The Apprentice: Alex Wortherspoon Receives Death Threats

Apprentice finalist, Alex Wortherspoon has revealed that he has been receiving numerous death threats since the show began to air in March.
