We watched the first one.  I found a few of them totally annoying, but am already hooked into watching it.

The beauty of it is how annoying they are! :)  How idiotic was that guy to open his mouth and start blabbing about class and education.  Heehee.

I loved him! Nicholas de Lacey-Brown is the best!!  ;D

But, no, he shouldn't have said what he said ... even though he was right. I mean, it's not unusual for a group to break down along those lines. On the US Apprentice, that's even how Trump set up the teams a couple of years ago - Street Smarts vs Book Smarts, or something like that. Poor Nicholas just worded it very badly.

What's up with the girl in the beret??

True.  But most people would be smart enough not to say that to Sir Alan Sugar. ;)

Oh, I know! And when he mentioned not liking football? I had to close my eyes! "No, Nicholas! No!"

We're watching it!  I was a bit peeved when Simon left and now Lindy.  I feel like the annoying/crap people are just getting LUCKY (like Claire and Lucinda) and either being on the winning team (even when they didn't pull their weight) or find someone else to blame.  It's just frustrating seeing the people you KNOW won't win (maybe they're not totally crap, but you know they won't win, either) keep making it through.

I personally really like Rafe and Helena.  They'll do well and make it far.

I've only started watching the series this season - haven't seen the last episode, and I am amazed by how incompetent these people are? I thought they were supposed to be the cream of the crop?

"I can cook Italian food. I've eaten in an Italian restaurant. I'll make tomato soup. Italian food has lots of tomatoes.".

Begging people for tips for delivering their laundry, after they've lost their clothes.

Etc.

You could pick a person off the street who would have more business sense than these people.

Well, I guess it's entertainment, if you like making fun of people who are incompetent.

Is that wrong?  ;)

Also, bear in mind that, like all reality shows, it's highly edited. You're only seeing the bits deemed by the producers to be the most entertaining.
