- Video: Watch the moment Lindi is fired
Lindi may have been the one who got the boot after the ice-cream marketing task but last night it was all about Jennifer.
Yes, we have a new villain in our midst as Jennifer steps forward to stake her claim as The Apprentice's resident bitch.
We'd always suspected that the self-proclaimed 'best salesperson in Europe' was a nasty piece of work - let's be honest, the constant scowling and eye-rolling was a bit of a giveaway and last night she confirmed our suspicions.
When Jennifer found herself in the firing line, alongside Lindi and Lucinda, she wasted no time in turning on closest pal Lindi in an effort to save her own neck.
It worked as Lindi became the latest hopeful to get the sack. It certainly wasn't undeserved though because, as head of the sales team, half of the appointments Lindi had set up were with businesses that already made their own ice-cream (next week they try to sell ice to the eskimos?).
There was a definite chill in the house when Jennifer returned and quizzed the others about whether they thought she was an ice queen. That'll be a yes then! Annoyingly the cameras then cut away - we want to know what happened next! Maybe they should film the candidates 24 hours around the clock next year and show the best bits from the house on BBC3?
This is certainly bound to stir things up over the coming weeks. In particular, Jennifer now thinks Helene has been talking about her - we'd love to see this pair square up to each other. Let's hope they are in the same teams next week.
The other big story of the week was Lucinda's emergence as a potentional dark horse to win the series. We all love an underdog and Lucinda has certainly tugged at our heartstrings over the past few weeks as we've seen her bullied by the other members of her team.
Last night, as team-leader, she gained the support of her team (apart from Jennifer of course) and even Sir Alan's aide Margaret was full of support for her. Also, call us shallow, but her kooky fashion sense also makes her the best dressed candidate for the job. Lucinda to win!
Interestingly, last week's villain Claire took Sir Alan's advice on board and kept her head down and got on with the task as team leader. Was she really a great team leader or was she just lucky? We're not convinced. Whiney Alex continued to play the blame game - let's hope he gets another shot at being in charge soon to see how he copes.
What did you think of last night's show? Should Jennifer have been sacked? Who do you think will win the series?

Very well put. Not too sure about Ms Claire but kind of liked her last night. Love, love, love, Lucinda and the flowers in her hair. We have to see Helene go! If only so I don't have to look at her nasty eyeliner any longer!!

Posted by: luuurvecarriendavid2004 on Thu Apr 24 01:04PM | Report abuseI certainly would not have a Jenny type in my team, she is a cliche that you have to be an aggressive @#$% to get ahead, not so. The old saying 'be nice to those you meet on the way up as you may end up meeting them again/working for them on the way down...' Nobody will hire her now.
Posted by: orlas_travels on Thu Apr 24 01:04PM | Report abuseLucinda is a blathering idiot- Think Bridget Jones on heat! I find her indecisive,incompetent,but most of all,i find her irritating,she does nothing but moan! "Oh i'm not a sales person/Oh i'm not a technical person,What does she do for a living?Oh yes Risk assesment manager-How useful! As i am also a manager of people i fail to see where lucinda fits into the Amstrad Organisation,She doesnt even have the courage to make a decision and stick to it!(i'm refering to the team resructure she tried to organise but failed due to opposition fron her colleagues) If this was my decision i would take great pleasure in saying "Lucinda you're fired!!!
Posted by: michelledowns81 on Thu Apr 24 01:06PM | Report abusewhy do these so called high fliers seem to make the most elementary mistakes? or is it because they are so divorced from reality that they don't realise it is the guy on the shop floor that actually makes some of their stupid deccisions actually work in the real world!

Posted by: silverstate56 on Thu Apr 24 01:06PM | Report abuseWHAT on this earth has become of British society. Has it really been reduced to such a SAD, LOW and PETTY level that all people can find to do with their lives is be nasty about others. GROW UP and take a look at yourselves. We run an aid project here in East Africa and its actions of the the Brits who come here that make me want to crawl into a hole and die and be VERY ashamed to admit to being a being a BRIT they are the only people who cause trouble. The rest of the world knows how to behave.
