View Full Version : Boys win the first challenge
Haydon 16-02-2005, 10:08 PM Anyone see this new series on BBC2?
The boys won the first challenge by selling all their flowers at a higher profit.
The girls were dumb and there is definate trouble ahead with some major personality clashes.
Andrea 16-02-2005, 10:20 PM Ooh, Haydon, I wondered what this new bit of the forum was about.
From your description, I will have to investigate:D
Anyone see this new series on BBC2?
No I didn't H, I haven't seen anything about it at all.....
Andrea 16-02-2005, 10:39 PM I have heard of this before.
I posted something about it ages ago.
It's the British version of the American show, where the boss was Donald Trump and he soon was known for the catchphrase "You're fired"
I will take at look at this next week.
actually I'll have a look and see when it is next on.
Andrea 16-02-2005, 10:44 PM Yep, next Wednesday at 9pm on BBC2.
Voice of reason 17-02-2005, 11:25 AM I almost watched this, and then decided to watch the Grayson Perry thing about transvestites instead. I'll tune in next week though as it did look really good.
Bonsai 17-02-2005, 12:26 PM It looks like only you watched it Haydon :huh:
I havent heard of this show, so ill have to look out for it. It must clash with something else i watch though, or i would of tuned in !!!
Number185 17-02-2005, 12:28 PM Didn't see it. Saw the first US series though. That was brilliant.
cayman-eater 17-02-2005, 12:58 PM I saw this and would really recommend it, although I've heard that some think it not as good as the US version.
I couldn't believe how the girls' team managed to mess up the flower selling with their in-fighting. I'll be surprised if Mandy and Saira manage to make up in time for the next task.
The boys' team seemed to have one natural salesman - Tony - if it hadn't been for him I don't think the winning margin would have been nearly as big.
Mr Q and I were glued to this last night!!!!
I found Saira to be over bearing and too full of herself to be honest....if she had approached me with her bunch of lillies I would have shoved em where the sun dont shine for her.......so at the moment, I dont like her - so she is BOUND to win :glare::laugh:
The girls werent half as organised as the lads, but i think there are some pretty powerful women there and they are "sussing" out the others "weak and strong" points and forgetting to focus on the task in hand!
I am looking forward to watching the rest of it!
Dolores 17-02-2005, 05:32 PM I missed it too. I meant to watch it cos i rather like Alan Sugar - good old fashioned no nonsense type of bloke imo!
does anyone know if it's repeated at all on any of the other BBC channels?
Islandman 17-02-2005, 10:56 PM We're on our third season of this show over here. I love this show. I think it is such a clever concept, and the challenges are always quite fun to watch. Everytime I watch it, it makes me want to change my career path to marketing or something. lol.
Tigereye 21-02-2005, 12:01 PM I loved this - watched the american series in Canada last year and got hooked!!
Roll on Wednesday!!
Thanks for the reminder. I read an article about Alan Sugar and this programme and decided that I fancied Alan Sugar so I would watch it, but I forgot. Will catch up tomorrow....any repeats showing anywhere???
Tigereye 23-02-2005, 11:58 AM don't forget it's on tonight!!
