Well, there's always next week.
Well, this is interesting. Spoilering it out because it strongly implies that a specific candidate will be eliminated in the (near?) future. The first spoiler passage talks in general terms about the situation so isn't terribly spoilery in itself, the second names the candidate.
Candidate name: (In quotes, so if you reply to this message they'll automatically get removed. I've been accidentally spoiled too often from attempting to quote a non-spoilery part of a spoilery post!)
I follow Monkseal pretty avidly, and he spotted the original tweet. (Careful if you follow that link; he has a twitter feed directly on his page)
Late last night one (currently-remaining) candidate tweeted something about breaking contract with The Apprentice and refusing to do You're Fired. The tweet was then deleted in a hurry.

Is You're Fired live or do they just pre screen the episode for the studio audience first?
Yeah they watch it and it's recorded in the week before.
Not necessarily. They might just take their bat home once they've been fired and refuse to come on the show.
I guessed at who it might be before I clicked the link. I was right.
Finally saw last night's episode today...and that's the third time this series I feel that Lord Sugar's decision has clearly been made by the producers and not him. Ruth at least deserved the chance to try and change tactics, surely?
To say nothing of how Brett somehow escaped again.

So the Sunday papers have been saying that Selina has been gang tapers in Dubai and what's been said about her in and around the show can get her arrested/deported from there, which is why she broke the contract with BBC? Makes me hesitate going stopping over at Dubai for a few days with my gf around Xmas.

I was assuming this was a picture book thing since those have like twenty pages and could be conceivably done in a day. Why does a twenty page story need an audiobook?

Yeah I think bee team has got this.

The passive agressiveness is amazing, "Can you pass it on to David please".

Put out the fire with his nose? Yeah that's a good idea to give to a five year old.

Make it sound like the wind is saying it? Is that what he said?
So I wrote a children's book in 2014 and it did pretty well, it was based on a popular interlectual property but it allowed me to gain a lot of insight to the children's book world.
These guys need to look at things like the younger aiming fantasy books and rhyming story books. The bee team are more focused and better led, the other team have a way more original out there idea but it may be a little too wordy. It'l be interesting to see what happens in the board room... Or even when they try to sell these books to stores.
Does Sharline (spelling?) have a thing for David? She just keeps asking for him and won't hear Richard.

That moustache. Dear God. I just want to take a wax strip to it.

Surely "Selling your baby for £2? What a heartless mother I am! " is one of the best quotes this series.
Yes, he should survive just for that.

I think Brett was most surprised.
I'm hoping for "Natalie ... you're shit. You're fired."

Looks like a week 1 type task next week.

Sam was lucky to not go. He's done very little since being on the show and a lot of issues stemmed from him this week. Plus he's got very little business acumen being a private tutor.
And the one who looks and talks like a spiv is project manager I think. Looking forward to some wide boy antics.
