2011 according to Google. Think that was back in the days when it was just really about the person, not what their business was going to be. I don't remember it ever being mentioned. He possibly invented it after the show.

Yeah, Stylpro was after the show.
The only thing that was mentioned in 2011 was the curved nail file that he invented if I remember correctly.

I have bought flowers from Elizabeth McKenna and often see her driving about as she is local! Flowers are gorgeous and she is very much how she was on telly - really eccentric, quirky and bubbly but probably nicer than on TV!



Edit - this lady

My favourite ever contestant, the chicken shooing was brilliant.

I've had Ridiculously Rich bakes before (from the actual store as opposed to wholesale etc) and they were nice but no better than other local bakeries.
 
Years ago i bought Tropic skincare before by Susie Ma (she didn’t win but Sir Alan still went on to invest in her business)
I think her stuff is quite expensive now
 
Onto the interviews for series 13. I no longer appreciate Linda Plant. Odious woman

It's almost as if I've undergone rehab after somewhat enjoying her during last week's episode

Should have stood by my principles
 
Unless her pitch is terrible I think it's a given that the gym will win. It appears to offer a larger return on investment than a hair salon as its relatively easy to expand around the country, can create merchandise for further income, online training etc

I haven't even learnt their names this year, that's how boring they all are 🤣
 
I couldn’t remember for a good while before who the other one in the final was 🤣

Marnie deserves to lose for this abomination of a dress. Where would you buy such a creation?

her business isn't just anti feminist guff.

That's something I like about The Apprentice in general.

There's very little content that can be construed as pro-feminist, anti-feminist, or focused on race, gender, sexuality, religion or party politics.

It's rare you get someone saying "Well, as an XYZ, I should win."

And that's refreshing. At least one of the girls this year was gay, and it was never mentioned. And why should it be.

In this season, only giraffe lady has pulled that tit, and nearly everyone thought she was an hole.
 
The interview show in particular was wholly sexist and patronising. Idgaf who wins. It’s not about professionalism any more, it’s far too ‘reality tv’ now. I miss Ruth Badger!

Where are the tech businesses? Nothing wrong with the beauty business etc but why are they all so ‘hair and sweets and gin and exercise’. Bricks and mortar. I work in tech and you can make a lot more profit in a lot less time, I don’t get why it’s not 90% of the business models. Maybe I’ve worked in tech too long. But all of the women are totally non representative of most women in business. The tasks try to include STEM but then all it does is highlight how utterly out of their depth the candidates are.
