The one with heating pads, a phone charger and morse code lights? Not yet, but soon...

My missus suggested that and when the technology comes you will be able to charge that apple up anywhere :lolol:

But you are right many good inventions/new ideas are just around the corner.

I like the idea of a phone charger that works off you walking. The energy generated when your arse cheeks rub together could be channelled out through your pants into a charger that you have in your pocket.

He should have really put the cat amongst the pigeons / morons, by sacking one of the winning team. They were, after all irredeemably shit, just slightly less shit than the others.

"Why can't the solar panels go under the fabric?"

"You're fired"

That was just GENIUS. At least one of them seemed to have identified this problem. The rest: :facepalm:

It has to be the worst team ever to win the first two episodes.

So far this series I have found myself cringing, and hoping that no one from another country thinking of doing business with the UK or employing from here is watching.

It's being brilliant so far, lovely to watch egos being deflated. If the girls had come up with a jacket with a USB changer in the pocket and a rechargeable battery hidden in the lining they would have won by a mile.

I know it's all in the editing but the good looking woman who won the first task was nowhere to be seen in the 2nd one.

Not really surprising. The only one of the three companies pitched to that I thought would even consider that crap was Firebox, and so it proved (and they only wanted the phone charger, they wouldn't have touched the flashing lapels with a barge pole).

That bloke who said he wouldn't wear their sweatshirt outside could do with being dragged into this, what a calamitous thing to say to clients.

The blokes slogan 'Privacy Is History' for their webcam xmas jumper thing went down like a lead balloon also.

That line: "There's no I in team. But there are FIVE of them in 'individual brilliance'"

has to be up there with THIS

In that first episode couldn't believe Sarah banging on endlessly about wearing short skirts, high heels and make-up while one of her colleagues raised the at-the-time valid point "but we're supposed to be serious businesswomen..."

Mind you, that was two episodes ago. Now it looks as if lip gloss might be their only hope. Incredible that the men are actually worse.

It's genuinely hard to believe these people actually exist. If they had any clue about running a successful business they wouldn't need to be on this program. Not one amongst them has any redeeming qualities. There's not even any fit women this year. How their families must loathe them.

Great fun though. Other than Masterchef it's the only reality TV I watch.

Same with Stephen, very prominent in the first one, all "me me me" and dramatic flounces. Barely heard from him yesterday, which was a big surprise.
