All is not sweetness between the wannabe entrepreneurs slugging it out to be Sir Alan Sugar's sidekick in the BBC's reality TV show, The Apprentice. Last week Lindsay Bogaard, who quit as communications manager of Shell to take part, was ejected after her management style was crucified.
...
As a project leader, Bogaard appeared tyrannical, dim-witted and determined to opt for her favoured - and bizarre - communication toy for toddlers versus a flash looking robot. She says this was all because the robot was financially unworkable, although this vital fact didn't make the final cut.
...
She fumes: "Alan Sugar. Who is he? He can barely make good decisions in the boardroom in the show." And there's more. "I was very disappointed with the credibility of all the other people who were supposed to be the best entrepreneurs in Britain."
What can she mean? Is there a teeny bit of tension with Miriam Staley, the glam contestant whose full-frontal televised knifing of Bogaard probably did for her.
As for Staley, her personal website includes a powerful defence of the show as "ultimately a fair depiction of the truth". We hope she never loses that touching faith in the accuracy of television
Miriam's website - caution: may cause Flash overdose
