00:00This is not a holiday camp, this is a business proposition from heaven.
00:09Lord Sugar is searching for a brand new business partner.
00:13We've got Brexit, but in this process I'm the one who decides who's going to remain and who's going to leave.
00:20Competing for his cash.
00:24Millionaire moguls in the making.
00:28This is a bloody shambles. It was boring, boring, boring. There was no bloody strategy.
00:33Go, go, go!
00:34It's a prize worth fighting for.
00:37One sec, one sec, one sec. How can you say you don't know whether it was underminded when you didn't hear the comment?
00:41Can we all just stop talking for a minute?
00:4318 candidates.
00:45Are you putting any input or are you just trying to stray away from actually making a decision yourself?
00:4912 tough tasks.
00:51Are we going to win this?
00:53One life-changing investment.
00:56You're fired.
00:57You're fired.
00:58You didn't follow the money.
00:59You're fired.
01:09Previously...
01:10This task is making money from interior design.
01:14A five-star hotel makeover.
01:17This to me screams British.
01:18Led by Ross.
01:19I would also scream no.
01:21No.
01:22The boys spared no expense.
01:23One thousand five hundred.
01:25So we need two of them.
01:26But their best of British theme.
01:28It's like someone just pukes rainbow in this place.
01:30Got a poor reception.
01:32It's certainly not British.
01:34Hello, who's that?
01:35It's your PM.
01:36Led by Bushra.
01:37Landscape, greenery, water, stone bike.
01:39That's ridiculous.
01:41The girls team.
01:42Guys, it's half the price.
01:44Bagged the bargains.
01:45We like cheaper.
01:47We want this art deco feel.
01:49But their creativity.
01:50Can you let me speak now?
01:51Let me finish my point there.
01:53Turned to chaos.
01:54No, no, no, no.
01:56In the boardroom.
01:57You did that because we were in back.
01:58How did I?
01:59Despite more arguments.
02:01The ladies have won.
02:02A second win for the girls.
02:04The only way you'd get that as a five-star groom is on Crap Advisor.
02:08Ross nearly checked out.
02:10Can I speak?
02:11I'm not here anymore.
02:12But in the end.
02:13Where was the creativity?
02:14I have a background in breakdancing.
02:16You have to be creative to do breakdancing.
02:18It was Geoff's last dance.
02:20Geoff, you're fired.
02:22Now 16 remain to fight for the chance to become Lord Sugar's business partner.
02:385.45am.
02:40Good morning.
02:41Lord Sugar would like you to meet him at London's New Design Museum.
02:44Cars will be outside in 20 minutes.
02:4720 minutes, London's New Design Museum.
02:51We're two boys down.
02:54How do you feel?
02:55All those girls have got to go.
02:56Get rid of some of the deadwood.
02:58Hmm.
02:59Now I can see.
03:01I'm not looking forward to working with boys because I think they could be quite demanding.
03:05Yeah, like babies.
03:06Are you great?
03:16What if they move one girl across, even at the numbers?
03:19I would not want to go on to that team.
03:21I'm like, shotgunning that I stay with the ladies today.
03:23No, I'd go over to the bar.
03:24It's quite aptly.
03:25Yeah.
03:26Go over as long as I could be PM.
03:27Yeah.
03:28If I had to listen to one of them, I'd just rather kill myself.
03:32Yeah.
03:33London's Design Museum.
03:37From iconic fashion to groundbreaking tech.
03:42Home to some of the world's most influential creations.
03:45Good morning.
03:57Good morning.
03:58Good morning, Your Chair.
03:59Within this museum, there is past technology that has changed many people's lives and the way that we go about doing things.
04:09Now I've invited you here because your next task is that you will be selling robots.
04:15I'll be giving both teams your very own prototype.
04:20You'll have to brand it and pitch it to major retailers.
04:24And I'm also going to ask you to tap into the kids' market by selecting a toy robot and selling it to small, independent shops.
04:34The team that secures orders and sales worth most amount of money will win.
04:41And in the losing team, at least one of you will be fired.
04:46Now, gentlemen, you've lost the last two tasks.
04:50You're light on personnel.
04:53Now, Michaela, I understand that you've got four brothers, have you?
04:58Yes.
04:59Is that right?
05:00Yeah, I do.
05:01And you keep them in place, is that right?
05:03Yeah.
05:04Well, go over there and keep this lot under control.
05:07And I'm going to make you the project manager of this team.
05:10Off you go.
05:11Once the stuff of science fiction, today a new breed of robots are leaving the lab and moving into our homes.
05:22Able to talk to us and take on everyday tasks.
05:26I can be programmed to do some seriously impressive things.
05:32Starting with the same model.
05:34I can dance.
05:35Gangnam star.
05:36Teams have two days to brand, program, and sell a prototype.
05:43It's the spirit of Jeff.
05:45Like all of you, I love a challenge, so I think we're going to get along just great.
05:51It's pretty impressive, isn't it?
05:53Wow.
05:54First job for the girls, choose a chief.
05:57I'd like to put myself forward for PM.
05:59I would also like to put myself forward just because I absolutely love robots.
06:03I think I can get the branding right with this and I think I can understand the target market.
06:10I just think I'd be right to lead this team.
06:12Well, in that respect, I defer to you.
06:14Yeah.
06:15Okay.
06:16Is everyone else happy with that?
06:17Are you happy with that?
06:18Yes.
06:19Yes.
06:20Taking charge of the boys, Michaela.
06:23I'm buzzing.
06:24Yeah.
06:25I couldn't be happy.
06:26It can be a little bit intense on the girls team, but you just better all behave.
06:30Next, decide who to target with their bot.
06:34I think we should look at the over-60s on the basis that over-60s will tend to spend quite a lot of time in the house.
06:39One thing that is quite difficult to do is sort of train them and teach them about technology,
06:45because this is something...
06:46They're not dead.
06:47No, of course not.
06:48But they haven't been...
06:49We've had smartphones for ten years now.
06:51Can I just finish?
06:52I'd say over-60s, my reason is this will still target a younger market
06:55because they'll buy it for the parents or the grandparents.
06:58Exactly.
06:59Perfect.
07:00We're all happy.
07:01Yeah.
07:02On the other team...
07:04Okay, so I'm going to go with kids.
07:05I think we've got a couple of parents in here who will be able to push that brand message as well.
07:10Target market decided.
07:12Next, team split.
07:14Joanna, are you happy to come on the prototype team with me?
07:16I am.
07:17And Anissa?
07:18Yeah, 100%.
07:19And Bushra?
07:20Yes, I am, thank you.
07:21And then the rest of you, are you happy to go on the toy team?
07:24Yeah.
07:25Yes, definitely.
07:26I would like, Sarah, I would like you to lead the sub team for me, please.
07:30It's fine.
07:31Her word is the last word.
07:32I need to make sure that they know that I am the project manager
07:36and I will only try and bring out the best of their abilities.
07:39If we do that, we'll win.
07:41I don't want any negativity.
07:43Even if you turn around and you don't think anything's a good idea,
07:45turn a negative into a positive.
07:47Yep, into a positive.
07:49Managing her manpower, Michaela.
07:52So, Andrew, you go on the prototype team.
07:55James, you go on the prototype team.
07:57Ross, prototype.
07:59Harrison, prototype.
08:01Then the rest of us will take on the toy sales team.
08:03Yeah, I'm happy with that.
08:04And I am going to appoint Harrison as the sub-team leader.
08:08From what I've seen of the boys so far, they seem, like, really up for it.
08:11They're determined to beat the girls,
08:13but, obviously, if there's that going off on one,
08:16then they're going to get whipped.
08:18Yeah, yeah, we're definitely going to win.
08:20Team Graphene, let's go.
08:2211am.
08:25Half of each team sets off to programme prototypes.
08:29Come on!
08:30Yeah, boys!
08:31For the rest, choose a toy robot to sell tomorrow.
08:36Yeah, I think it's absolutely key that we all know what we're doing
08:39at all times and we're all making a point to make us self-informed
08:42and then we can support each other.
08:43Yeah.
08:44Listen to your own advice, Elizabeth.
08:46OK?
08:48What does that mean?
08:50Nothing.
08:51The old airbag.
08:53What?
08:54Thank you for that.
08:55I appreciate it.
08:56Hot airbag, I meant.
08:57I'm not a hot airbag.
08:58I'm trying to add some...
08:59I'm trying to add something.
09:00Sometimes you like to blow your own trumpet, that's all.
09:02I'm only trying to help.
09:03Blow your own trumpet.
09:04If you could, you would.
09:05That's all, so, you know.
09:06You know I love you, Victoria.
09:07You know I love you, Victoria.
09:08I'll not put anything else in.
09:09I'll just sit back in there.
09:10Come on, we're going over.
09:11Come on, don't get emotional.
09:12That's what we're not meant to be doing.
09:13No, no.
09:14Should just have a few minutes.
09:15Take a deep breath.
09:16I'm trying to help.
09:17We're all in it together.
09:24North London.
09:26Design base for both teams.
09:28Middlesex University.
09:30Jade, nice to meet you.
09:31Working on what the over-60s want from a robot.
09:34Harrison, nice to meet you.
09:35Harrison's half of the boys.
09:37Well, I personally think we should maybe look into the recipe.
09:40It tells you the cooking times.
09:41It can tell you all the ingredients you need to do.
09:43So, that's why I like that.
09:44I want to do yoga, personally.
09:46I think, given that age group is a really important thing,
09:48that they can stay active.
09:49Nice one.
09:50And could you say, please remind me to take my medication?
09:54Yeah.
09:55OK, we've got three.
09:56Perfect.
09:57Guys, can we start with getting some moves together for yoga,
09:59so we can incorporate this in the pitch
10:01and demonstrate what the robot can do, please?
10:03Like, if the robot could go down, like...
10:06Like that.
10:08Something on the lines of, like...
10:10Like that.
10:12Could he do something like this?
10:14Down like that.
10:15And he went up like that.
10:17I'm not sure that's actually technically yoga.
10:19The robot would be teaching different aspects of language,
10:26different aspects of numbers.
10:28Set on a study aid for kids...
10:30But, obviously, then making it interactive
10:32and making it a fun element with karate.
10:35Next job for Jade's girls,
10:37give their prototype a personality.
10:39Am I being the robot?
10:40Yes, you're going to be the robot.
10:42OK.
10:43See if you can change your voice slightly to, like,
10:45someone a bit younger.
10:46I don't know, just, like, try and put a bit of upbeat...
10:48OK.
10:49OK, record.
10:50Hi there, such a lovely introduction.
10:52What's your name?
10:53I think it sounds a bit too harsh
10:54to say we're speaking to kids.
10:56I think it should be very, like...
10:57Softly.
10:58Hello, what's your name?
11:00I have never had in my life
11:02women showering at me
11:03and all the conditions to have a happy robotic voice
11:06were working against me
11:07and make me feel really panicky.
11:09I'm a robot of many features,
11:10but helping you learn...
11:11You're doing it too quickly.
11:12..and have fun is my special talent.
11:13Just do that again.
11:14Slow it down.
11:15I am a robot of many features.
11:16OK, OK.
11:17It was incredibly intense.
11:20Let's begin with languages.
11:22We will travel the world together.
11:24Just do that again, but slow it down.
11:28East London.
11:30Selecting a toy robot to sell tomorrow...
11:33The most important thing is to show them
11:35that we love this product.
11:36Stand back.
11:37..the other half of both teams.
11:39That is so cool.
11:40First up, a flying robot.
11:43OK, what is the cost price to retailers, please?
11:46That's £39.65.
11:47£39.65, OK.
11:50Next...
11:51I'm going to demonstrate Penguin.
11:53..a construction robot built from the box.
11:56I actually have a son who's seven years old
11:58and he would love this.
11:59I think it's an amazing product, yeah.
12:01Hi.
12:02Hi.
12:03Finally, a balancing bot.
12:09Have you any functionality built in
12:11so children can start to design their own code
12:13and write their own code?
12:14It's probably something that we could
12:16and should look at.
12:17But I think you can see we all love it
12:21and I very much hope we can sell it for you
12:23and we'll talk a bit later.
12:25Thank you so much.
12:27Nice to meet you.
12:29Thanks.
12:30So, ladies, what do we think about the balancing robot?
12:32Love it.
12:33I like it as well, yeah.
12:34Definitely, we need to go for that one.
12:35My only worry is I don't want her to have taken away
12:37the fact that you pointed out something
12:39that could potentially be wrong with it.
12:41They might, you know, feel a little bit undermined.
12:43Note.
12:44I'll show you what Elsie can do.
12:49If you're feeling generous, you can deliver a snack.
12:52That is cool.
12:53Your own personal assistant.
12:55Lauren, I must say, I really do think
12:57we are the best people to sell this product for you.
13:00Everyone here is full of personality.
13:02If anybody can sell it, Sarge can sell it.
13:05Thanks very much.
13:06Thanks, Lauren. Take care.
13:07See you.
13:08Having weighed up all three options, decision time.
13:12My thoughts on it is the balancing one is the best,
13:14most educational, fun.
13:16With both teams leaning towards the balancing bot...
13:19Hi, Lauren.
13:20Hi, Lauren.
13:21..the vendor will decide who will represent her.
13:23We would absolutely love to represent you
13:26and the balancing robot tomorrow and sell it for you.
13:29I think we'd be delighted for you to sell our product.
13:33Oh, Lauren, I love you a little bit.
13:35That's brilliant, dude.
13:36I think all four of you showed a real excitement and enthusiasm
13:39and I think that's really important.
13:41So, therefore, unfortunately, I have gone with the other team.
13:45Yes!
13:46Finally.
13:47Good job.
13:48Good job.
13:49Yeah, boy.
13:50I can smell it already.
13:51That's a disappointment.
13:52It is.
13:53Well, it's probably...
13:54It could be a blessing in disguise, so...
13:55It's frustrating because there's an underlying tension
13:57between Elizabeth and Siobhan in the team,
13:59which may be why we didn't get the balancing robot.
14:01There's a sort of a miserable air about it,
14:03which is a bit off and we need to get that changed.
14:06Second choice, we're going to go with the flying robot.
14:08Yeah.
14:09OK.
14:103pm.
14:11At the robotics lab, next for Harrison's half of the boys...
14:16So, I definitely like the idea of going down the direction
14:18of a human name myself.
14:19..cook up a name to tempt the over-60s.
14:22Geoffrey, but it's J-E-F-F and then R-I-I.
14:27What was the idea behind the I-I?
14:29Because interactive, you know, like,
14:30a lot of this new technology has I in it.
14:33I like the sound of it.
14:34What about you, James?
14:35I'm Geoffrey.
14:36I'm happy with Geoffrey as well.
14:37How do you feel? Sounds good.
14:38I'm feeling good so far.
14:39Everything that could have gone well has gone well.
14:41We just need to make sure we keep up the energy,
14:43keep up the creative flow and take that forward
14:45into the next part of the process.
14:47Let's wrap it up.
14:48We're going to go with Geoffrey with two I's
14:49and we're going to go with your helping hand for life.
14:51Perp. Look at it.
14:53Done.
14:54Also, coming up with names...
14:56It doesn't encompass a name,
14:57but encompasses what it does.
14:59..from PR fashion agent Anissa...
15:01You were talking about doing fun learning and education,
15:03things like that.
15:04..a surge of ideas.
15:05So, I thought Fleurn.
15:08I think that Fleurn sounds a little bit too girly.
15:11Just as an option for the fun?
15:12I wouldn't even like that to be an option, to be honest.
15:14OK.
15:15OK, let's think of some...
15:17What is your favourite...
15:18OK, so dog names.
15:19I know it sounds crazy, but like a family pet,
15:21so that it's going to be part of the family.
15:23Like Stan or Rufus or just something that's like a family...
15:26Sounds like a dog.
15:27I know, exactly.
15:28What about something like X-Men or something like that?
15:30Just something that's just like whimsical and made up,
15:32that's using, I don't know, anime in Japanese, like Ponyo,
15:35like Shrek, like a word that's just like a cartoon character,
15:38Tom and Jerry, I don't know, just a word that is nothing to do with tech.
15:42OK, just stop speaking for two seconds and just think.
15:44Sure.
15:45What about just doing it as the e.bot?
15:50E-bot.
15:51Your interactive study buddy, learn and grow with me.
15:55Says what it is on the tin, I like it.
15:57Happy?
15:58Yeah.
16:035pm.
16:04Why can't the robot introduce the pitch and say hello?
16:06Well, it could.
16:07Brainstorming ways to pitch their prototype.
16:10So, we've got, hello, I'm Geoffrey and I'm your helping hand for life.
16:13Harrison's boys.
16:16Hi, Michaela, you all right?
16:17How are you getting on?
16:19Yeah, doing really well.
16:20The name that we agreed was Geoffrey with a double I at the end.
16:25OK, all right, all right.
16:27Can I just say, I'm just slightly confused about one thing.
16:30The word went written down.
16:32I don't know if it looks right, Geoffrey.
16:34What's wrong with it?
16:35Have you written it down like J-E-F-F-R-I-I?
16:38It's what it is, what it is, it's Geoffrey.
16:41We've kind of linked, we've made sure we've had a nice subtle link of the robotics and the human.
16:45And I think we've brought them together very well.
16:47OK, really, really amazing.
16:48I love you all.
16:49Bye.
16:50Bye.
16:51Bye.
16:52Bye.
16:53Bye.
16:54We love Michaela.
16:55I think having Geoffrey as the name of the robot is ideal.
16:58You want something in your home that you can relate to with a human name.
17:01It's definitely going to work.
17:03Are you lot feeling confident?
17:04I feel confident.
17:05Yeah, definitely.
17:06James?
17:07I'm a robot of many features.
17:08Yeah, that's the one.
17:10Functions fixed.
17:11I hope that you can make it work for us.
17:12Thank you so much.
17:13I hope that you can make it work for us.
17:14Scripts signed off.
17:15All right, I'll see you tomorrow.
17:16Cheers, thank you.
17:17Both robots will be programmed overnight.
17:22For the other half of each team...
17:27We need e-board up high.
17:29He's holding it up.
17:30He's saying, learn and grow with me.
17:32...create branding for their prototype.
17:34What do you all think about the branding they've chosen?
17:37Geoffrey with the double I.
17:38From project manager Michaela...
17:40I'll write it how they've spelt it, so we can see just in big letters.
17:44...a change of direction.
17:46I just don't think it looks right.
17:48No, when you look at this straight away, it just feels that...
17:51Geoffrey.
17:52Geoffrey.
17:53It doesn't feel like a flowing word, does it?
17:55What other suggestions would you have?
17:57I personally would go for Simon.
18:00With the two I's in the middle, both lower and lower.
18:04Yeah, yeah, and I think that's a real good name as well, just Simon.
18:07Yeah.
18:08So that's the name I'm going to go for.
18:09OK, so, Charles and Elliot, I want you to please sort out the key facts
18:12that's going to appear on the...
18:14A0 board.
18:16Yeah.
18:17So if you sort that out, then we can have a little look at this.
18:207.30pm.
18:22Go thicker, go thicker, go thicker, go thicker.
18:23Stop.
18:24Stop.
18:25For the girls, pitch board complete.
18:27That works.
18:28Well done, guys.
18:29On the other team...
18:31Can we try it with that blue on a black background?
18:34Five minutes remain to bring Simon to life.
18:37Or maybe grey, actually.
18:39So I want the full board background in grey, in that grey what you've done, yeah?
18:43Are we close to the logo? Sorry to be...
18:45Yeah, we've got there with the colours now.
18:47Cool.
18:48Two minutes.
18:49Can you zoom out so I can tell you where to place that on there?
18:51Just so you know, we've only got about five minutes.
18:53We might need to make that a bit bigger.
18:54Can we just get this information in, otherwise it's pointless?
18:57Yeah, can we have the tagline just immediately beneath it?
19:01What was the tagline?
19:02Um...
19:03Your helping hand for life.
19:04Right.
19:05Okay.
19:06Literally just copy this out as it is for him.
19:07Check this all for typos.
19:08The last thing we need is any spelling mistakes.
19:10Dark robots weren't for you.
19:11Question mark.
19:12And then, um...
19:138pm.
19:14Sorry, guys.
19:15Design time.
19:16Over.
19:17Can you turn it around for us?
19:18Yeah, sure.
19:19Well, look, it's not...
19:21It's not ideal, because...
19:22Yeah, no, it's not ideal.
19:23Well, that's all we can do, innit?
19:24Very, very disappointed not to have the picture board completed.
19:27The fault lies with Sargent and Michaela.
19:29I constantly reminded the team we're getting near the end,
19:31we're getting near the end, and unfortunately, time just escaped us.
19:347am.
19:35Hi, there.
19:36I'm Evolt.
19:37Today, half the team will pitch prototypes to two major retailers.
19:40Red is rouge, white is blonde, and black is noir.
19:43The rest will sell toy robots to independent shops.
19:46Right, I just want to split the teams up.
19:48Let's go.
19:49Let's go.
19:50Let's go.
19:51Let's go.
19:52Let's go.
19:53Let's go.
19:54Let's go.
19:55Let's go.
19:56Let's go.
19:57Let's go.
19:58Let's go.
19:59Let's go.
20:00Let's go.
20:01Let's go.
20:02Let's go.
20:03Let's go.
20:04Let's go.
20:05Let's go.
20:06Right, I just want to split the teams up.
20:07I am going to swap you, Elizabeth, with Joanna.
20:08Very well.
20:09One thing I will say is I know that there was potentially people
20:12undermining Sarah yesterday.
20:14I've said from the get-go that my decision and Sarah's decision
20:18is the last voice, OK?
20:20It was just with the balancing robot, there may have been an issue
20:23around the fact that Elizabeth asked whether it could do more
20:25than it could actually do.
20:26We undermined the product, OK?
20:28And when you want a product, you can't go into the pitch and say,
20:31Hi, can it do that? Or will it do that in the future?
20:33I don't think you can have a go at the product at all.
20:36No, I don't think she...
20:37No, she did undermine it.
20:38We're going over this point too much anyway.
20:40No, I mean, you just said that you didn't even hear it.
20:42How can you say you don't know whether it was undermined when you didn't hear the comment?
20:45I didn't say I didn't hear it.
20:46You just said that.
20:46No, listen to me. You feel like I speak.
20:48I did.
20:48No, you speak then.
20:50I didn't say I didn't hear it.
20:51I said I didn't...
20:51No.
20:52I didn't say I didn't hear it.
20:53I said I didn't...
20:54No, I didn't say I didn't hear it.
20:56I said I didn't interpret it as a put-down.
20:58Thank you, Sarah.
20:59This is exactly the sort of thing that I don't want to be happening, OK?
21:03Downstairs, meeting Simon.
21:05Hello, I'm Geoffrey, and I'm your helping hand for life.
21:09Michaela and the boys.
21:11Can I just ask you, the Simples program...
21:12Not really.
21:13It was done overnight, so we can't make any changes now, if that's what you're getting at.
21:17How did you lot get on yesterday?
21:19Did you get the board put together, and is there any chance we can have a look at that?
21:22Yeah, yeah.
21:23Yeah, we'll show you.
21:24We have encountered a few minor issues, but it's nothing that we can't...
21:29OK, cool.
21:30Look for you.
21:31Just smile while I take this off.
21:33All right.
21:34Just be happy.
21:35With the band-aid off.
21:40Simon.
21:41Simon, yeah.
21:42Interesting.
21:43I did not feel at all that Geoffrey...
21:46It just didn't look like written down.
21:48We say his name is Geoffrey, OK, but his family name is Simon.
21:53But it all falls under the family.
21:55You know, it says, you are helping hand for life.
21:59What?
21:59It says, you are helping hand for life.
22:02I'm speech.
22:03I actually have no idea what to say about it.
22:06I just want to bin it and throw it away on the way to the meeting.
22:09I can't take that in.
22:10They will not be taken seriously.
22:11One, they changed our name.
22:12Two, the board is useless.
22:15I think, given the last-minute changes, Andrew,
22:18I'm thinking of maybe swapping you into here
22:20and taking Elliot over there.
22:22You sat with us throughout the design process,
22:23how you come up with Simon,
22:24and then you can incorporate that into your game.
22:26Yeah, I'll take control of that.
22:319am.
22:33While half of each team head off to sell toy robots.
22:36I'll do the demonstration on the robot while you take the pitch.
22:39You can learn from me on the robot,
22:41and then when I come to pitch on the next one, you can do it.
22:43Sounds fantastic.
22:44It's what you call boxed off me.
22:45The rest will pitch their prototypes.
22:48Elliot, as the only mole from the other team,
22:51could you maybe let us know what happened?
22:53It was Michaela and Sargent who were with the designer.
22:55Effectively, they ran out of time.
22:57The typing of what Charles and I wrote
22:59started about, I think, two minutes before the deadline.
23:02Interesting.
23:04Oxford Street.
23:06First stop for project manager Jade,
23:08one of the UK's leading department stores.
23:14Good morning, and I just want to introduce to you Ebot.
23:18If you would like to start with the demonstration, please, Bushra.
23:21Can you show us some special things that you can do?
23:25Let's begin with languages.
23:27Red is rouge, and black is noir.
23:30That's probably just one.
23:32Don't worry, as soon as you can show up, too.
23:34You've got some cool karate moves.
23:35Do I teach you?
23:36So here he's doing some of our karate moves.
23:39Karate moves.
23:40Thank you, Ebot.
23:43I'm sure we'll see you soon, my study buddy.
23:50So, moving on from that, you can programme him.
23:54So he is...
23:55Sorry, I've lost my train of thought.
23:59I think what Jade is trying to show you is the future capabilities of Ebot.
24:04So if you want to add mathematics, you need to just pop it into the app
24:07and it will translate through to Ebot.
24:09Also, the demographics, sorry, Bushra, to carry on,
24:11is thinking six- to nine-year-old children as well to learn and grow.
24:15That's such an important factor, isn't it?
24:16We were thinking about also just things like multiplication tables,
24:19so it's just bringing that element in as well.
24:21Just to bring it back to the future capabilities.
24:23And Ebot is an investment, honestly, isn't it?
24:28Yes, it is, especially with these future capabilities.
24:31So it really is an innovative product.
24:35I'm not really that clear on what the primary function
24:38or the primary reason for purchase is.
24:40What we're trying to do is combine the learning element
24:43and the fun element, something that they can play with.
24:46How many would you expect us to buy?
24:47If, for example, you took an order of 1,000,
24:49you could generate a £210,000 profit on that.
24:52Um, where did you come up with the number 1,000?
24:55We're just a nice round number.
25:00It certainly wasn't the slickest of pictures I've ever seen.
25:03The robot fell over, the interaction didn't work,
25:06they all interrupted each other,
25:07and that was really distracting, I think, for the retailers.
25:09If they get an order out of this, I'll be mightily surprised.
25:16On the other half of the team...
25:18Robo Savvy, Cyber Dog with Japan, Crotty.
25:20Yeah, I'll try Cyber Dog.
25:22Decide which retailer to target with their toy robot.
25:25Isn't the word Robo Savvy telling us
25:28it's something to do with robotics?
25:31OK, do you want to do Robo Savvy first, yeah?
25:33Let's give it a go.
25:34Yeah, but this wasn't my choice.
25:36You guys have pushed me into it.
25:37I'm happy to do that one if you want to take another one,
25:39because I don't want you to feel as if I backed you into a corner
25:41and you had to do that one.
25:42Don't worry, we'll do it, we'll do it.
25:43Do you want to swap it with Joanna?
25:44Listen, let's not talk about this.
25:45I'm happy to do the Robo one.
25:46We need to be decisive, because we don't want you to get into a situation where...
25:49I'm not being decisive.
25:49I'm enthusiastic about the Robo one.
25:51OK, but just agree.
25:53Yeah, though, what Joanna's saying is,
25:54do you want to keep Robo Savvy, or do you want her to do that,
25:55and you do a different one?
25:56As I said, I'm doing it.
25:57You're going to do it, OK.
26:00All this, just because I said Robo, sounds like frigging robot.
26:04It's not funny for somebody to make a decision on your behalf
26:06and then laugh at you.
26:07I'm not laughing.
26:08Me?
26:08I'm laughing at the situation.
26:09No, she's laughing, and she's laughing.
26:10I mean, it's not funny.
26:11I'm laughing at the situation, because all I've heard for the last ten minutes
26:13is, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da.
26:15I've had enough.
26:15I'm sick of it.
26:16For Christ's sake, we're meant to be pulling together and focusing on the task.
26:19I've had enough of having, like, a drill going through my temples.
26:23That's why I'm laughing, because if I didn't laugh,
26:24I'd probably come bossed.
26:28Lunchtime.
26:30Next, through the department store doors...
26:32We've got a very unique product to show you.
26:35Harrison's Boys with Simon.
26:38What we wanted to do with Simon is incorporate the sense that,
26:41yes, he can help you keep healthy, but not only that,
26:44he can offer a companion to maybe the people who are more lonely.
26:48The over-60s is a growing market.
26:50So I'm actually going to hand you over to Ross.
26:52Yep, we have a little demonstration for you.
26:54Hello, I'm Geoffrey, and I'm your helping hand for life.
26:59There we go.
27:01We're going to see some fantastic yoga moves performed by Geoffrey just here,
27:04the downward dog.
27:06And now I believe Geoffrey's going to transition into a chair pose for us.
27:11What do you think, guys?
27:13Yeah, yeah, Geoff, very impressive.
27:15I'd like to talk to you today about my friend Alex's grandma, Doris.
27:20She's 80 years old, she lives alone,
27:22and one of the only people she ever sees is the Meals on Wheels driver.
27:26One of the greatest travesties in our society
27:28is that the elderly are often the most lonely.
27:32Simon steps in where society stops.
27:36OK, these are going to fly off the shelves.
27:39The trade price for this is £490.
27:43And as a 50% mark-up, that will make that £735.
27:47That's kind of what we're recommending to go on the shelves,
27:50and I think that will fit nicely in the market.
27:52So can I get this straight?
27:53OK, you're pitching a £735 product
27:57with an unfinished board with grammatical errors.
28:01So the branding work is still undergoing,
28:03it's still in development.
28:05It's either Simon, now it's Geoffrey.
28:07This is very confusing.
28:08Yeah, just to be really, really clear with you,
28:10we named the prototype Geoffrey.
28:12All of its kind of technical stuff is referenced as Geoffrey.
28:15It refers to itself as Geoffrey.
28:17From then on, everything's Simon.
28:19OK?
28:20Is it possible we could maybe have a 90-second conversation
28:22about any numbers that you would consider trialling in the store?
28:26Probably not right now.
28:29It was an absolutely appalling performance.
28:32The team had to explain the difference
28:34between the prototype being Geoffrey
28:35and the future iteration of the robot being called Simon.
28:38That caused tremendous confusion, not only in my mind,
28:41but more importantly, in the minds of the retailer.
28:47We've tried to prepare the pitch
28:49knowing what hideousness we have to present in front of.
28:51It's just embarrassing.
28:52Right, sorry, speaking of who.
28:55Speaking of thy.
28:56Hi, it's Harrison, Michaela, you all right?
28:57Hi, please tell me you're super happy.
29:02The first thing the guys we were pitching to said
29:05is it's not a brand,
29:06and the first word we can see is there's a grammatical error.
29:08And they're like, I don't know how you can have a board
29:09in front of us that's half-finished.
29:11Not only did the board cause all that issue at the beginning,
29:14but actually the whole Geoffrey to Simon thing
29:17caused a massive problem as well.
29:18They said they found it horribly confusing
29:20and they didn't understand what the difference was.
29:22Elliot has all this information about, um,
29:25about what we discussed on how to overcome these problems.
29:27Because of how badly they reacted to the board,
29:29we can't take that in.
29:30OK, all right, all right.
29:31Just go with what you think then, yeah.
29:34Just don't take the board in then
29:35and just explain it and just say,
29:36this is just a prototype, the branding isn't complete yet.
29:39Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
29:40Cheers.
29:40Bye.
29:41Bye.
29:43Bye.
29:44What are you thinking, Michaela?
29:46Just, I just want to go home.
29:50Let's make you a mathematical genius, shall we?
29:52For Jade's team...
29:53Three, six, nine, twelve.
29:56Last chance to sell in bulk
29:58to electronics giant, Maplin.
30:00This device will help the family learn through experiences.
30:05We all know ourselves
30:06that you are a million times more likely
30:08to learn when you practise something.
30:12So on that basis of it being interactive,
30:14how will it sell itself in our stores?
30:16We can put it into demo.
30:18Yeah.
30:18So it can talk and it can do all this
30:20and really do the funkiness and the karate chopping
30:22and all that sort of thing.
30:23We need to have a chat.
30:25Thank you very much.
30:26Thank you very much.
30:30Mid-afternoon.
30:34Hi.
30:35Siobhan, nice to meet you.
30:36Nice to meet you.
30:37For Siobhan, pitch the toy bot
30:39to a leading robotics specialist.
30:42We also have Nuno here.
30:44He's our telepresence sales rep from Portugal.
30:47Thanks very much for meeting us.
30:49No problem.
30:50What do you have?
30:50Today we wanted to come and introduce you
30:52a flying robot.
30:53This is more of a, you know,
30:55a retro kind of robot.
30:57As a business,
30:58we've tried to avoid this type of thing.
31:05In comparison to maybe some of the other products
31:07that you have,
31:08it may be a bit more like commercial
31:09because there is that fun factor there.
31:11Nuno, your camera's on the internet.
31:14Yeah, so we took like some quick research here
31:18and you can buy this one for $20.
31:20Yeah, no, we understand.
31:20It's a really high-risk market at the moment.
31:24Unfortunately, we are not interested.
31:26Sorry.
31:26Thank you for your time.
31:27No problem.
31:28I appreciate it.
31:29Thank you for coming by.
31:30Thanks.
31:34A little bit of a mortifying experience,
31:36as expected.
31:37I think you did well, though.
31:38Well, I have no backup.
31:39Thank you, though, for helping me.
31:40I think it was quite clear as soon as we got here
31:42and got in the room
31:42that we were in the absolute wrong place.
31:44We should have just wrapped it up
31:45and got out, if I'm honest.
31:46You muttered, you muttered in my ear the whole day.
31:48You don't like interruptions.
31:49You don't like this.
31:49You don't want this.
31:50And then you get your moment.
31:50I didn't mutter in your ear.
31:51You've been flustered the whole way.
31:52I expected to have a bit of help,
31:54and if it wasn't for you...
31:54Did you need help?
31:55Did you feel like you were failing?
31:57No, no.
31:57So you needed help?
31:58No, I don't.
31:59Let's not just try and let's get...
32:00Let's try and take everybody down.
32:01No, Siobhan, you need no help being brought down.
32:03Your behaviour is ridiculous.
32:04You just tried to go, OK, let's wrap it up.
32:06We've just lost the...
32:07We've just walked out somewhere without a sale.
32:09Can we go to the next one?
32:10Please.
32:12It's all gone off in the most horrific way.
32:15I mean, it's so unprofessional.
32:16It's wasted a lot of time, and quite frankly,
32:19the bad blood in this team is costing them.
32:22I will support you as I have everybody else today.
32:24Literally, like, if you're going to be all negative,
32:27I don't want to hear a thing.
32:30Central London.
32:32For Harrison's boys...
32:35Pitchboard ditched.
32:37Across town...
32:3850 units at £43 a unit.
32:41Shifting the balancing robot in bulk...
32:43OK, yeah? Deal.
32:45Michaela's half of the boys.
32:46We could possibly go down to £46 a piece.
32:49£45 and you've got a deal.
32:51£45, £50.
32:52£45.
32:53£50?
32:54£45.
32:55£45.
32:55£45.
32:55£45.
32:57You're going to be so pleased to know that we can do it
33:00at £30 a unit, plus one free.
33:02Excellent.
33:04Thank you so much.
33:05Today is all about sales, and I've been impressed with this team.
33:08Michaela has led very well from the front.
33:10She's allowed everyone to say something when it was appropriate,
33:12and I think as a team, they've gelled.
33:14We've still got some time.
33:15We need to get back out there, and we need to start selling more, OK?
33:18Let's go.
33:18Brilliant.
33:18Great energy.
33:19Come on, guys.
33:20Let's go.
33:22Next stop for Harrison's team...
33:25Geoffrey is a personal assistant for the over-60s.
33:28The electronics giant.
33:30How can you actually help me, Geoffrey?
33:32Help my mum or dad live a little healthier?
33:34I can talk you through recipes.
33:36I think I'm forgetting something.
33:38It's the time of day you should be taking your medication.
33:41Oh, of course it is.
33:42I'll now hand you over to the humans.
33:45How big of a market do you think there is for this product?
33:47Most of the robots currently are probably aimed at maybe the kids' side.
33:52There's not really one that's aimed at the over-60s.
33:54Thank you very much.
33:55Thank you for coming along.
33:56Great.
33:57Thank you very much.
33:58Thanks very much.
33:58Appreciate it.
33:59Thank you very much.
33:59All the best.
34:00I'll take this guy with me.
34:02See you.
34:056 p.m.
34:06Just one hour left to make sales.
34:09The Ilshirms we've got will head straight on to the West End.
34:12Or it's whether we gamble on the Entertainer.
34:13So my gut reason...
34:14We're not going to win anyway, I don't think, because we haven't sold even half of them.
34:16So if we go to the Entertainer and they buy 50 or 100 units, we can't win?
34:20Well, if they do, yeah, we can, potentially.
34:21Exactly, if.
34:23You can always do the negative.
34:24You can always do it.
34:25I'm not being negative.
34:26I'm a realist, though.
34:27In my era.
34:27No, I haven't been.
34:28You're doing my head in.
34:29This isn't about playing games now.
34:30No, it's not games, Shavon.
34:31You're driving me nuts.
34:33So just zip it or be constructive.
34:34How dare you?
34:35Don't talk to me like that.
34:37Don't talk to me like that.
34:38God, you're not talking to your child.
34:40Just don't give yourself enough credit to think, I think you're competition to me, because
34:43I really don't.
34:44I don't find you competition.
34:45Okay?
34:45Good.
34:46Well, then let's just be positive.
34:47Work together and win this task.
34:48I'm not more successful in my business.
34:48Sorry, I just don't need to do that.
34:49I'm sure you are.
34:50I'm sure you are, Shavon.
34:51I am.
34:51I'm sure you're really engaging and people love you.
34:53Yeah, they do.
34:54I'm sure they do.
34:54Yeah, they do.
34:55I'm sure you're fantastic to work with.
34:57A real joy.
35:01Westfield Shopping Centre.
35:03Right, let's make this count, yeah?
35:04We can do this, girls.
35:05Let's make this a game changer.
35:07One last chance to sell big.
35:09I can come in to £30 for you, but that's the absolute lowest we can go.
35:13Right, I'll give you £29.
35:14£30, and we're throwing two samples.
35:16Two samples, done.
35:17Okay.
35:17Done.
35:18Pitch is over.
35:24People can play with it.
35:26You can pick it up.
35:26You can put it down.
35:27The prototype teams hit the streets.
35:30Come on.
35:30Could we push you to, like, three?
35:32To try and top up toy sales.
35:35This is basically the last appointment.
35:36This is it.
35:36We've got 17 minutes to get in there.
35:39Bosh, bang, done.
35:40Cutting around.
35:43Oh, sorry, Karen.
35:45Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
35:46It's actually really, really cool.
35:48You like it, don't you?
35:48I do, I do.
35:50Where is it?
35:51Where we going?
35:53£40.50.
35:54That's a deal, then.
35:55Brilliant.
35:57It's literally right here, guys.
35:59Oh, man, it's 7 o'clock.
36:00We've missed it.
36:01We've missed it.
36:01It's 7.
36:037 o'clock.
36:05Trading over.
36:07Hopefully, we've beat those boys tomorrow.
36:09And Michaela in the boardroom.
36:11If we lose the task tomorrow on the basis of toy sales,
36:14then I would definitely be putting the blame at Siobhan's door.
36:16I really don't think she's contributed anything of value,
36:19and therefore, she's got to go.
36:22I'm not worried about myself in the boardroom.
36:24I've contributed a lot to this task.
36:26When it came to ditching the boards,
36:28we finally got rid of it in the second pitch.
36:30So we'll just have to see if that's going to be a key factor
36:32in winning or losing this task.
36:35Tonight, sales will be totted up.
36:37Tomorrow in the boardroom, a breakdown.
36:41You can go to the boardroom now.
36:51Good morning.
37:05Good morning, Lord Sugar.
37:07So this task was all about robots.
37:12Michaela, I thought it was a good idea to put you in this team
37:15and to give them a bit of a reboot, if you like.
37:18And in computing terms, everything is controlled by a motherboard.
37:24Yeah?
37:25So there you are.
37:27Let's talk about the market.
37:29The target market was the over-60s,
37:31so we went down the road of yoga,
37:33so for exercise, recipe aid, and as a medication reminder.
37:37So you think us oldies need a bit of assistance?
37:40No.
37:41I mean, you know, just for your information,
37:43we don't stick our stampers on an email.
37:45No, no, no.
37:46Or put our CDs into a toaster.
37:49We're a little bit more advanced than that.
37:51No, no, of course.
37:52Yeah, so we came up with the name Jeffrey, with a double I.
37:55Jeffrey?
37:55Jeffrey.
37:56We lost to Jeffrey last week, didn't we?
37:58Yeah, we did.
37:59I hope this thing dances better than him.
38:01Yeah, it actually did, yeah.
38:02And, er, all right, so what's that, Simon?
38:06So we came up with the name Jeffrey
38:08and the strap line, your helping hand for life,
38:11and that was passed over to the toy team,
38:15and then the next day, that's kind of what was decided by that side.
38:20Well, in other words, you rejected the name Jeffrey?
38:22Yeah, we changed it.
38:24You changed it, but you didn't tell them?
38:26No, so we programmed him to say his own name.
38:27You rammed Jeffrey into the machine.
38:29Say, hello, my name's Jeffrey.
38:29Hello, my name's Jeffrey.
38:31And you're standing in front of the punters with that thing there.
38:33It was hard to go into the pitch with...
38:37Who did the pitching on the first one?
38:39So me and Elliot changed the morning and the second day.
38:41Oh, you changed over?
38:42Yeah.
38:43Yeah, so I wanted Elliot to move over there and...
38:45As a barrister, you wanted him to get him out of the ship
38:47by talking, by waffling, did you?
38:49Yeah, yeah.
38:49It's got to be a bleeding-good barrister to do that.
38:51Not sure.
38:52The only thing I could suggest in that meeting
38:53was that Jeffrey was the surname,
38:56so effectively it would be Simon Jeffrey.
38:58Tell you what, retailers are not stupid.
38:59They understand that things change,
39:01and you could have just said,
39:02look, sorry, there was a misunderstanding between the team.
39:05End of.
39:07OK, let's get on to the toy selling team.
39:10You successfully got this toy here.
39:13This is the best one.
39:14It seemed for good value for money.
39:16Yeah.
39:16We all agreed that this was going to be
39:18the easiest one for us to sell.
39:20So you sold out then, basically.
39:21Sold out of your toys.
39:23All gone.
39:23All right, let's move on now.
39:26Jade, you became project manager.
39:28How did that come about?
39:29I feel that I am very hands-on
39:32when it comes to getting involved with branding,
39:34and I thought this was the right task for me to take on.
39:37We all unanimously agreed that kids
39:39was the best category to go for, didn't we?
39:41Yeah.
39:42What we wanted Ebot to do was languages and mathematical skills
39:45to kind of interact and grow with the child.
39:48All right.
39:49Who did the pitch to the retailer?
39:51I decided that Bushra would do the interactions with Ebot,
39:56and I would lead the pitch.
39:58Didn't quite work out, though, did it?
40:00Not only was the robot talking over you,
40:02but you were really all talking over each other, weren't you?
40:04Yes, it was disappointing,
40:07but I do think that we managed to show his functionality.
40:10I thought I heard it fell over.
40:12He did fall over, but we still showed that he could do it.
40:13It reminded me of my Uncle Sid when he gets pissed at a wedding.
40:16I don't know who taught it to dance.
40:18Was it Ed Balls?
40:20I do think that we gave as good a pitch as we possibly could.
40:26Let's get on to the toy selling team.
40:29You lost out to the chaps.
40:32Yes, we did.
40:33I heard that you come up against traders who are quite sharp,
40:36and one of the ones you went into
40:38took one look at that straight away
40:40and said, don't waste your time, love.
40:42Yes.
40:42I think that then resulted in you, Siobhan,
40:45having a big row about that.
40:47It was coming all day, really, to be honest with you,
40:49so, and then, you know, it just kind of turned...
40:51Siobhan actually said it's because we didn't speak.
40:53That's why we...
40:54No, I said it would have been...
40:54No, please, Siobhan, please, please, please.
40:56I can't have this again.
40:57She actually said it was Sarah Knight's fault
40:59that she didn't make a sale.
41:00No, because we all agreed before,
41:01and on all the other pitches,
41:02that we'd come in and, you know,
41:03obviously help where we can,
41:04which we did.
41:05And then just on my pitch,
41:06only Joanna came in to help.
41:08What would we get out of sabotaging you?
41:10I don't know,
41:11but it became very derogatory and personal.
41:12How?
41:13How did that happen?
41:14Well, when my business started,
41:16you know, people started to then say that,
41:17you know, you're no challenge for me.
41:20No, no, no, we didn't.
41:21And then saying, oh, business, being derogatory
41:21about my business, yes, you are.
41:23I've got to tell you,
41:24you wasted so much time,
41:25it was so unprofessional,
41:27and you really should have known better.
41:30You've got to sort yourself out, you ladies.
41:32You really do.
41:33OK, we need to get down to the numbers.
41:38Claude, tell me about the toy sales.
41:41Well, Vitality's toy sales amounted to £5,785.60.
41:47Karen, the same thing?
41:50Well, they only sold 47 toys,
41:52so that only generated £1,477.55.
41:56Can you tell me about the sales they did
41:58on the prototype robot?
42:00The department store said they'd have a little trial,
42:03and they said they'd take £15.
42:05Really?
42:05Yep.
42:07And the electronics store,
42:10they made an order of £100, which...
42:12Yes!
42:12Sorry.
42:13Sorry, little sugar.
42:14..which gave graphene a total of £57,827.55.
42:21Very good.
42:23Claude, same question about your team.
42:25Well, the situation was not very good
42:28with the department store,
42:30and consequently gave no orders.
42:33And the electronics store
42:34didn't like your pitch either,
42:37so the total value of your sales
42:39was £5,785.60.
42:42Well, you seem to have pulled it off, ladies.
42:47You've spent a lot of time in this task
42:49fighting with each other,
42:51so for your treat,
42:52I've arranged for you to take control
42:54of your own fighting robots
42:56so you can sort your differences out
42:59once and for all in a combat war zone.
43:02So, well done,
43:03and I'll see you on the next task.
43:05Thank you, little sugar.
43:07We need to stop fighting.
43:14We need to start fighting.
43:16Come on.
43:16It's hard to open business
43:17without the pitch.
43:19Well, I mean,
43:20that was the thrashing, really, wasn't it?
43:22I'd like you to go away
43:23and have a chat amongst yourselves.
43:26I'll see you back in this boardroom later.
43:28At least one of you is going to be fired.
43:30Off you go.
43:37We've got two of the UK's
43:45most powerful robots here
43:46that you're going to have a go
43:47at battling with.
43:48Three, two, one, activate.
43:54We absolutely bossed it.
43:56£57,000 worth of sales.
43:59I'm absolutely thrilled.
44:00Oh, you're scaring me.
44:02Who is that driving?
44:03Siobhan, shit, man.
44:05We might be fighting and stuff,
44:06but I think it is driving us.
44:08We're all really competitive women
44:09and we all want to win,
44:10so we're just, like, at it.
44:12Yes!
44:13Yes!
44:13Yes!
44:14Yes!
44:14I feel ecstatic
44:16and with such a huge profit.
44:19I literally can't even describe
44:22how amazing it feels.
44:24I've forgotten what it feels like
44:25to lose.
44:31When you guys made the call to us
44:33with the name Geoffrey,
44:34we felt it wasn't right.
44:35You changed it from one name
44:37to another name.
44:37Yeah, exactly.
44:37There was no need for that.
44:39I think Harrison was the weakest link
44:40in this task.
44:41He was quite indecisive
44:42at various points throughout the day
44:43and I didn't feel
44:44he was sub-team leader quality.
44:46Did you explain,
44:47OK, so this is our thought process?
44:49With the way that Harrison
44:50structured the pitch,
44:51it was Ross on the technical side
44:53that dealt with that question.
44:54Do you all feel the same?
44:55It just seems as soon as you came over,
44:56it was almost as if you weren't there
44:58the day before.
44:58I think that's a bit harsh.
44:59I think the person to blame
45:01is Elliot.
45:02If it goes right,
45:03he'll say you pitched in
45:04and if it goes wrong,
45:05he'll say I did raise the point.
45:06If you're sitting on the fence constantly,
45:08nothing's ever going to get done.
45:09The main reason that pitch ball
45:10was not complete was due to time.
45:12You were sitting on the right
45:13of me and Michaela.
45:14A number of times I saw Michaela,
45:16let's get this logo finished
45:17and she kept tweaking things.
45:19I'm nowhere near ready to leave.
45:20You know, I'm a strong businesswoman,
45:21I know what I'm doing.
45:22I'm just going to have to
45:23breeze past my negatives
45:24and point out everybody else's.
45:37Yes, can you send the team in, please?
45:38Well, the thing that occurs to me immediately
45:54is you went to the over-60s
45:58and what you chose,
46:00yoga, recipes, medication,
46:03they didn't think was very good at all.
46:05In terms of the functionality of the product,
46:07it can demonstrate about 12 skills at the moment.
46:09He looked at those skills and thought,
46:11what's applicable to an over-60?
46:12Well, I'll tell you, excuse me,
46:13button in there,
46:14what's applicable to an over-60?
46:16Bearing in mind,
46:16I ain't got one foot in the grave.
46:18I'd like to say to it,
46:19Geoffrey, go and look up on Google
46:21villas in Spain.
46:23And it has the capability of doing that,
46:25doesn't it?
46:25We did actually stress in our pitches
46:27that it wasn't just for the incapable over-60s.
46:29We acknowledge that it's very broad and diverse.
46:31Otherwise you would have said something like,
46:33can I put on my incontinence pants?
46:36Yeah.
46:37Who decided to trash the name Geoffrey?
46:40It was myself, Charles, Michaela and Elliot.
46:44None of us thought, actually, that name was OK.
46:47I think we all went for a new name.
46:49And you went ahead and you produced that bloody thing there,
46:51which, by the way, has got spelling mistakes in it.
46:54The only time the your is used is when I say you're fired.
46:57I mean, I can't even read it from here.
46:59Oh, you're lucky.
47:00Yeah.
47:01I mean...
47:02Lord Sugar, I think no-one is proud of that board
47:05and it was a...
47:06It's a disgrace.
47:07Who did it, didn't you?
47:09So Michaela, when we sat down to design, separated herself with Sargent...
47:15It was a collective team effort, Elliot.
47:17Well, excuse me, with the designer.
47:19Sargent says he's a creative and he designed the logo, the colours.
47:25He came up with the name Simon as well.
47:27And the amount of time that Sargent and Michaela were spending with the designer...
47:31That's a bit ridiculous, Elliot, because...
47:33I'm just explaining what happened.
47:34You're not explaining what happened properly, though, Elliot.
47:36What you're doing is putting your little spin on it.
47:38So if you want to explain it properly, then own exactly what you did.
47:40We changed the name, we come up with a new design
47:43and then me and Sargent cracked on with doing the logo
47:45and Charles and Elliot was writing down the key points of what was going to go on the board.
47:50The fact was the logo was actually finalised by Michaela
47:53about 35 seconds before the deadline.
47:56So this text was just thrown on.
47:57So he brought all that text in in 35 seconds.
47:59It wasn't Petit Longfield.
48:00Charles, turn it in me.
48:01No, one minute.
48:01It was eight minutes remaining at which point?
48:03Then I was like, okay, we need to start getting these things on the board.
48:04It was eight minutes remaining, how did we end up with that?
48:06You were signed to the designer and you didn't spot that the colour was wrong
48:09or that the spelling mistake was there.
48:10But what are you talking about, Charles?
48:11You read it out.
48:12I said check for spelling errors about two minutes before.
48:14So the only thing I can see is if you're saying it was just Michaela and Sargent,
48:17what have you two done?
48:18We wrote it all out on a piece of paper.
48:19Everything was exactly...
48:20Did you give that piece of paper to the guy?
48:22We gave the piece of paper to Michaela.
48:23He was reading it out after paper.
48:24Excuse me.
48:29But that's not what happened.
48:30I don't think you would say that, would you, Elliot?
48:31I absolutely would say.
48:32And I'm telling you that you, you read that to the designer.
48:35You don't have to tell me anything.
48:36I'm telling you what, Elliot.
48:37You don't have to tell me anything because I was sat there.
48:38Elliot, seriously, you're just sitting on the fence of everything.
48:41What have you done then?
48:42What have I done?
48:43So if you're sitting on the fence of everything.
48:43I'm the one that's responsible for the £5,000 of toys.
48:46You're not responsible for that.
48:48How are you responsible?
48:49Did you sell it?
48:50I didn't sell it, but I was the one who specifically said that that was the best product to choose on that day.
48:55Elliot, you're not responsible for that by no extent.
48:58The sergeant chose that product.
49:00Harrison, I mean, if I was to program into a computer, this is what the task is all about.
49:06Tell me who should be responsible.
49:09And they would say, well, the sub-team leader.
49:11I don't think I can in any way come down for the failure of this task.
49:15You didn't do anything.
49:15You didn't sell anything.
49:16No?
49:17We didn't have a great start giving a board like that.
49:20You keep going on to the board.
49:21The point is, as Lord Sugar alluded to earlier, the actual programming things that went into that.
49:26OK, fantastic.
49:26So can I ask what your contributions was?
49:29I've already said this previously.
49:32Michaela, we've got to bring this matter to an end now.
49:36Who are you bringing back into this boardroom?
49:41Elliot and Harrison.
49:42Elliot and Harrison.
49:43All right.
49:45The rest of you, this is a bloody shambles, you lot.
49:49This is the third task and the third task you've lost.
49:52I'm not impressed at all with any of you, to be honest with you.
49:57Go back to the house.
49:59Thank you, Lord.
50:02You've got to up your game.
50:03Right, I'm going to have a discussion with Claude and with Karen.
50:15I'd like you to step outside and we'll call you back in shortly, OK?
50:26Elliot, I don't know whether he's been playing it a little bit slippery in this past three weeks.
50:31It's strange for a barrister not to actually have much more charisma.
50:35He's been pretty weak throughout.
50:37Harrison, he just convinces himself and tries to convince us that he worked so hard
50:42and he'd done everything that he was supposed to do.
50:45That product didn't sell because it was a mishmash of functions.
50:48Yoga, recipes, medication.
50:51I mean, anyone with a brain would see those things don't fit together.
50:55Michaela, the biggest point about her is that why didn't she recognise where the money is?
51:00That's a crucial point and I think she made a big mistake.
51:03But she did make some very, very good sales in the era that she was.
51:10Yes, Lord Sugar.
51:11Can you send the three of them in, please?
51:13Yes, Lord Sugar.
51:15You can go to the boardroom now.
51:16Well, this task is about robots and I just want to make it perfectly clear that I'm the Terminator
51:33and I can promise you that one of you will not be coming back.
51:39Michaela, my biggest criticism of you in this task is that this was about turnover
51:45and why is it you didn't spot that in the beginning?
51:49Yeah, I mean, obviously I've been...
51:51I looked at this at the beginning and chose the best people for the pitch.
51:54You know, I thought that they would be able to go in and win it better than I would be able to go and do it.
51:58Why would you put yourself down like that?
52:00You're obviously a good salesperson.
52:02Yeah, I'm not super confident.
52:05That's an admission to make, to me, who wants to invest £250,000.
52:10It doesn't mean me bad at business, that I'm not confident, it's just...
52:12To survive in this process, don't get intimidated by this boardroom.
52:16Because, let me put it this way, if you're going to be my business partner, this is it.
52:21This is what you get.
52:22This is me.
52:23The job that I was supposed to do, I did the job, I did it well.
52:26There was just a couple of decisions along the way that threw us off piece.
52:31Now, Harrison, you say that, you know, one of your greatest strengths is that you're able to get on with everyone
52:36and you're willing to graft.
52:38Definitely.
52:38I mean, I know you talk about working hard.
52:41Lord Sugar, I definitely did not step back from this task.
52:44Like Michaela said, she put me in this to take control and I do think we work well.
52:49You didn't sell any, though, did you?
52:50No, we didn't sell any, but, I mean, it's not ideal to go into a pitch with that.
52:55Are you blaming that as the reason you didn't sell?
52:57That's a big reason.
52:59Surely the programming.
53:01Surely the programming of that.
53:02On the first pitch, the first thing that they addressed was kind of the grammatical error of our strap line.
53:08And, yeah, I mean, if we had a board like the girls, I'm sure things would have been a lot different.
53:13Come on, man, please.
53:15You know, don't I look like I've come from the planet Mars.
53:17It's got nothing to do with the board.
53:19Elliot, I'm a great believer in that saying, no smoke without fire.
53:23And all these other candidates here seem to keep asking, what do you actually do?
53:28So can you run through what you've actually done?
53:30I believe I was instrumental in the selection of that product.
53:33Was it?
53:34It wasn't.
53:34You didn't choose that product.
53:36Are you, are you, was you in a different task?
53:39You said you wanted the expensive Lego one.
53:41Why are you mental, Elliot?
53:43Honestly, you just live on another planet.
53:44This is incredible, really.
53:47You're saying you was involved.
53:48She's saying you weren't.
53:49I can't, I wouldn't be in this process if I wasn't telling the truth about things.
53:53If I've done something wrong, I'll say it.
53:54Elliot, you're saying I wanted a different product.
53:56You did.
53:57Charles and I were the only two, from my recollection, that chose that as our number one product.
54:01Well, you're wrong.
54:01From your recollection, you are wrong.
54:03If I may finish.
54:04Start talking Robusta.
54:07Sergeant should be sitting in here.
54:09He was responsible, along with you, for that board.
54:11Well, you were sat doing nothing.
54:12I wasn't doing nothing.
54:13Oh, you were sat doing nothing.
54:14I wasn't doing nothing.
54:14The finger is always pointed at somebody else, Elliot.
54:16It's not.
54:17I have omitted my part in this board.
54:19Why can't you admit that you have ever done anything?
54:20I mean, you just do nothing.
54:22Let's take the pitching, for example.
54:24Elliot, you spoke about your mate's grandma.
54:28That's not going to make a £50,000 sale.
54:29That's all you did.
54:30What I was doing was actually bringing a personal element as to how this technology can actually
54:35help you.
54:35Yeah, you spoke about your mate's grandma.
54:36That's what you've done, yeah?
54:37Okay, I'm going to summarise this.
54:41Michaela, I believe that there were some fatal errors made here.
54:45The first one was that you didn't follow the money.
54:48And that, for a potential business partner, is, you know, suicide, as far as I'm concerned.
54:55Harrison, if this was down to a logical thinking computer, they would say you were responsible
55:00because we didn't get any orders for the big ticket item.
55:04I don't want to hear any more from anybody now.
55:06Very cool.
55:08And Elliot, you may be very articulate, you may be very skilled in being able to talk
55:13as a barrister, but I think sometimes people come into this process thinking that what
55:18they'll do is they'll just sit back and let everybody else fall on their sword.
55:23I don't want to hear from you.
55:25But having said all that, Michaela, the name, be it any good or not, Jeffrey, was buried in
55:31the software and you shouldn't touch it, because that then had the knock-on effect of embarrassment
55:37in front of the retailers.
55:39These were big decisions that you made.
55:42And for that reason, you know, I'm struggling.
55:46But Elliot, I think that your demeanour, your manner is just not up my alley.
55:54You're not cut out to be my business partner.
55:58Elliot, you're fired.
55:59Michaela, you need to speak up a little bit more to me and you need to follow the money.
56:16Both of you go back to the house.
56:20I do think Lord Sugar made a mistake in firing me.
56:41I like to think I'm a salesman, I'm a negotiator, I'm a natural-born leader, and I feel if Lord
56:46Sugar would have kept me in the process, he would have seen more what I had to offer.
56:50I think McKenna will come back, I think Harrison will come back, I think it might just be Elliot.
56:55I'm not sure.
56:56I think he's got a good fighting chance, Elliot.
56:58We never know.
57:00CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
57:02Come on, mate!
57:04Wait, who else is there?
57:06CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
57:08CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
57:11CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
57:13What happened?
57:17Hands down the worst experience in my life, and I've given birth.
57:19It was just traumatic, wasn't it?
57:22Why?
57:23Lord Sugar was like, oh, you need to start speaking up to me.
57:26Didn't get slated?
57:27No, he did go in and he said he didn't think I was a very good sub-team leader, because
57:31he didn't get any sales.
57:32LAUGHTER
57:33What was the reason for Elliot's firing?
57:35He's not done anything, so that's why he's not here, because although I made some questionable
57:39decisions, at least I've done it, made his decisions.
57:41Yeah, you made his decisions, yeah.
57:42Agreed on that.
57:47Now, 15 candidates remain.
57:50Lord Sugar's search for his next business partner continues.
57:55Oh, my God!
57:57Next time...
57:58I'd like you to lay on a VIP hospitality box.
58:02Match day magic...
58:04What?
58:05We're looking at 6,100.
58:06I don't want to use the word outlandish, but it is.
58:08...turns corporate tragic.
58:10Any of you know Geoff Hurst?
58:13We've got a singer coming.
58:14Now, the end is near.
58:17And in the boardroom...
58:19I like your saying.
58:20No, no, no, no.
58:21Listen, let me speak a second.
58:22A red card.
58:23A crime, as far as I'm concerned.
58:25You're fired.
58:40You're fired.
58:41No, no, no, no.
58:42I don't need to be a guy.
58:43No, no, no, no, no.
58:45I can't believe you.
58:46Capital on the internet.
58:47I don't need to be a guy.
58:48No, no, no...
58:50No, no, no, no, no.
58:51Do you know that you've got your guy.
58:53And when you're a guy.
58:54You are so sweet.
58:55I never want to keep up, dude.
58:56And I'm like, go to the Big Bang.
58:57And I'll be happy.
58:58I'll be happy.
58:59I'm not kidding.
59:01We'll be happy.
59:02How can we go?
59:03Yeah.
59:04Oh, my God.
59:05I wouldn't know that you've got a big deal.
59:07How can we do that?
59:08Let's add a big deal,
