Junior Apperence: Childs Play?

Junior Apperence: Childs Play?

I have watched the apprentice for years now, enjoying each series with the different types of people, some I liked, some I loved and some I hated and wanted to fire myself. Now it’s back but this time it’s a little bit different, rather than having adults take on the challenge to impress Lord Alan Sugar this time its up to a group of teenagers, ranging from sixteen to seventeen they have the chance to win worth £25,000. The fund will go towards kick-starting his or her business career and will be tailored to their individual career prospects and development.

At first I wasn't a fan of the idea of using teenagers this time. Sir Alan Sugar isn't as harsh (which I suppose is a good thing considering they are just kids) the challenges aren't as big as they were with the adults, even the house they are living in isn't as big as the house the adults get. The house itself is a little patronising as its filled with furniture that is brightly coloured, the bed sheets have little cute lady bugs and while not a huge issue it’s as if a bunch of producers have sat down together and have asked 'so what do kids like....BRIGHT COLOURS AND TOYS!' come on give these teenagers a little more credit.

With most of the contestants with the normal grown up show there are always contestants on the show that you love to hate, but seeing as these are kids you would think I would be nicer and like them all. Wrong, there have been at least three I have hated so far. I should explain when I say hate I mean I just don't like the way they are treating others, their attitudes and well just generally hate them. But hating them is part of my love for the show. There are always contestants that you always root for and just will to do well.

Now I have never actually been interested in to going in to business but when I watch the show I'm so sure I could do better than everyone doing the tasks. I think of how I would do it different and how I would talk to people and sort everyone out, however things are allot easier when you are watching from afar on your comfy chair. But that’s the same with every show, for example who wants to be an millionaire when you see the contestant unsure about what the answer is and you think you do, you watch them questioning if they should walk away with the money they have now and you can't help just shout at the tv 'THE ANSWER IS D! GOD YOUR STUPID THE ANSWER IS D! JUST SAY D!' and you get annoyed when they walk away.....then feel more stupid when you find out the answer is actually A.

So far there have been three episodes and four contestants have left. In the third episode one contestant was told to leave because he wasn't feeling well, I found it odd that he gave no struggle or pealing to stay, but for all we know this happened when the cameras weren't on. So let’s have a look at what contestants are left
Arjun Rajyagor: At first I wasn't sure he was going to be in this contest for much longer however the more I see him I more I like him and is slowly turning in to my favourite of the group.

Emma Walker: We have yet to see much from Emma yet, in the latest episode we saw her in the background and when she was talking it was mostly negative. I don't expect to see her in the show for much longer

Hannah Cherry: Last week Hannah took charge and was project manager, she sells herself as being creative and an inventor yet I don't see much energy about her.

Kirsty Cleaver: I expect Kirsty to do well in this show; this seems to be likeable and hard working. She seemed to jump on the gang wagon this week though as the team she was in attacked their project manager. However in their defence he was pretty useless as the project manager.

Tim Ankers: Tim has been ducking being fired since the first challenge task, next week when he has to be project manager to prove himself its either going to be sink or swim.

Zoe Plummer: And finally the one I simply can;t stand. I find her to be smug and I believe she thinks very highly of herself. Give her chance and I think she would gladly kill the others to win.

So currently I want either Arjun Rajyagor or Kirsty Cleaver to win. I am wondering what the final task is going to be, normally it’s to arrange some big event inviting allot of people and making it a great night but so far the tasks for the teenagers have been quiet small in comparison to what the adults went through.
As always I will continue to watch the show, however I do hope that if there is going to be another series that it will go back to its normal format of using adults rather than teenagers.
