And the one who didn't work out how much profit his team were supposed to be making? The Accountant !!!

It's cringe-making a good bit of the time, but a good watch - if only to hear that next little gem they come out with.

Whatever happened to "The Brand" from the last series?

In fairness if you listened to the You're Fired interview he had it all worked out. He just didn't bother explaining it to any of them. What went wrong was they just didn't get through enough oranges/make enough soup. It's unclear whether Leon broke the blenders or whether it'd have made little difference. I do understand where Edward was coming from, we live in a country that is so financially inept that anyone that can add up two numbers is labelled a 'geek' and this will harm your job prospects outside certain circles. At the other end people with rather more modest skills than they believe they have if they are in the right environment are labelled 'experts' - an equally ludicrous position to be in. I think his mistake was taking it to extremes, as Stella got away with it last year, had he written it down on a piece of paper for show they'd have thought it was brilliant. It still made great entertainment though.

I was in the middle of typing a post on here when it started, and was going to finish that and then get up and turn off (no remote), but once I heard that, about 30 seconds in, I couldn't stand any more.

It was very funny :biggrin:. I was trying to think of something along those lines you could say with three people in the sentence that would sound even more ridiculous and I can't manage it.
