Yup. Lucinda's been the team leader on 2 challenges, and on both occasions she brought the team together incredibly well. She might sound like a potty old posh aunt, but she definitely seems to have what it takes.

So far, for me, I'd say Lucinda first, then Raef. I agree that Claire is becoming slightly more palatable, and Sir Alan certainly seems to be willing to give her the benefit of the doubt.

Just watched Wednesday's show. It was a good one, saw a different side to Raef, he was quite annoying. Still loving Lucinda!!

I would agree with you that Raef was irritating this week, but Michael was even more so. Unfortunately Raef was the leader, and therefore had to go.

I have to disagree with you about Lucinda this week. She wasn't in charge and as such seemed to become rather like a petulant little kid on occasion. I think she also fibbed in the boardroom over the allocation of tasks. She said she hadn't offered to do hers, when we'd quite patently seen her do exactly this 10 minutes previously.

Even so, she is still my favourite.

Get Michael the little weasel out! I reckon Claire or Lee will win though.

Looking forward LOTS to the final tonight. It's brought mixed feelings though. Obviously it'll be a great hour and a half of telly, but I'll really miss watching these clowns trying to manage the simplest of tasks on a weekly basis.

We reckon Claire will win.

I'm thinking Claire too.

It's really strange though, in week 2 or 3 I disliked her with a passion. But somehow she's now my favourite, though she still makes silly faces ;)

:yeahthat:

Also, why do all the women on this show pluck their eyebrows to within an inch of their lives? They all look permanently startled.

Edit: yeah it's a shame about Raef...

We were surprised but pleased to see Lee win last night. Well done Lee!

I think what surprised me the most was that he was daft enough to lie on his CV when entering a competition like The Apprentice. It really was a whopper, and I don't think the fact that he was hired, having done this sends a particularly good message to others.

By all means be creative with your CV, but saying that you studied somewhere for 2 years, when it was in reality only 4 months is a bit much.

Anyhow, he got away with it, so he'll probably do pretty well for himself, and Sir Sugar.

There was an amusing interview with Lee and Claire on Moyles this morning between 8 and 9 if anyone is interested.

      I must have missed that yesterday, sorry! Scott did make the same tongue in cheek comment on today's show about Rylan. It's a shame Rylan isn't the go to cover for Scott, I assume his commitments away from R2 prevent that. I enjoyed his last cover stint. Spoony is the go to stand in for the mid afternoon slot (he's covering again week after next while Scott's off getting married).   In that case, I think you're right!

      Not that last minute. Scott was talking about it on his own show yesterday, saying he and Rylan have a deal where they cover each other's shows but Rylan only covers Scott when he can be bothered!

      Sorry I should have been clearer, I meant daytime weekday. Weekend shows would count as a 'step up' from overnights for OJ.

      If we're counting the overnight slot, OJ Borg regularly covers weekend shows.

      The only weekday R2 DJ who would ever cover a weekend slot?!

      What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.

      Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.

      He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard!

      The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.

      I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly.

      Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...

      Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.
