I'm no expert, but I would have thought involving an actual bicycle might help sell cycling products instead of miming some old shoot.
I'm going to have to switch off shortly before my boot goes through the telly.

I watched with a mix of incredulity and laughter. The Gillette (errrr 
) inventors husband wouldn't wear reflective but was happy to ride round in what looked like offcuts from a horse blanket. what a guy!
the calibre of candidates is getting worse each series, I used to enjoy the program and there were a few oddballs, characters and standouts in each group that helped make it entertaining but this is just a parade of dreary dull witless clones, I've given it a few weeks for the personalities to emerge but there aren't any apart from the monobrow lad and he was cut off at the knees in week two and has toned it down to gluten free level.

The show does a massive disservice to business by portraying it as a nasty barrow-boy, cut-throat game played by narcissistic idiots - and I'm not just talking about the feckless contestants. I'd go as far as to say that this show actually discourages young people from entering the world of business. It is abetted by useless careers advisers; I saw two during my time at school and college and both suggested that with a degree in modern languages I could be a teacher, an interpreter or a translator. Neither mentioned exporting, which is what I do now.
