The Young Apprentice
"It's not my fault!"
Doesn’t this programme reveal the real truth about “The (Grown Up) Apprentice”?
All those retarded, celebrity-wannabees who would never have lasted five minutes in a real business were children themselves. The very idea that any of them had any idea what they were talking about was just a hugely patronising insult to the viewer. Incidentally, I’m reserving the title “The Adult Apprentice” for a really innovative little idea that’s on my very top shelf.
It’s an indictment of the researchers that work on this sort of lowbrow dross. They chose the idiot contestants on “The (Grown Up) Apprentice” to fail and to indulge in all sorts of puerile angst and confrontation. I prefer “The Young Apprentice”. It’s much more honest, more amusing and entertaining without making the contestants look like idiots. This is the way I would expect children to behave!
I can’t wait for one of the kids to call him Lord Suralan. Seems to me he’d make a perfect chairman for the FA, which is just another load of nonsense for spoilt kids.
Anyway, in “The Adult Apprentice” you won’t get fired but you will be punished.
So it’s finished. The little Paki boy won – deservedly so. The obnoxious, sickeningly-smart blonde got taken down a peg or two. The snide, junior witch Sindy-doll got the treatment she deserved.
It was much, much better than the grown-up’s version. You can enjoy kids behaving like kids. With the grown-ups it was just embarrassing.
