The Apprentice 2008

Sir Alan Sugar with series 4 winner Lee McQueen


The 4th series of the apprentice. Yes I admit it... I’m obsessed! :P

So yes this year’s winner was Lee McQueen.... “that’s what I’m tawkin about!” - his catchphrase throughout the whole series. Lovable idiot from this series was Raef Bjayou - actually to be fair he wasn’t an idiot at all and was quite business saavy but everyone just seemed to find him hilariously funny. The actual idiot was Michael, apparently a Jewish guy but he couldn’t tell you the difference between a kosher and a halal chicken (a requirement on one of the tasks – the scavenger hunt in Morocco).

The asian girl this year was Sara, who did show some good business acumen but fell victim to group bullying and eventually got fired. Simon (the army man) was a genuinely a nice guy but again a victim of bullying and this year’s crazy person was Lucinda, who always stood out from the crowd with her erm... colourful dress sense. Evil girls this year were both Jennie’s, must be a common thing and the vain guy was Alex from Bolton; yes I’ll admit I fancied him also! Claire was the serious professional business woman and proved to be a serious contestant for Lee in the final. Despite being a bit of a loud mouth, she seemed to have a similar business style to Ruth Badger from series two of the apprentice.

Regardless of having a disastrous job interview and getting caught telling lies on his CV; I’m glad Lee went onto to win the series as I felt he was the most deserving out of the group and appreciative of the opportunity he was being given. I wish Lee the best of luck in his new job!
