- Video: Watch Kevin's best bits
Matt Lucas-alike Kevin became the sixth candidate to be fired in last night's Apprentice. Was Kevin the right person to go?
Well, of the three candidates he took back into the boardroom - yes. He refused to listen to the other team members suggesting that they would be better to do the sales presentation and as a result his pitches were disasters.
Kevin made a catastrophic mistake in not taking Jenny back into the boardroom. Jenny should have been in there and should have been fired for her appalling 'save the earth' week idea - let's all save the planet by cutting down lots of trees to send cards to each other. Clever.
So, did the other candidates agree with Sir Alan's decision? Absolutely not. The last five minutes of the programme when the contestants return to the house are fast becoming the best in the whole show. This week saw everyone turn on Sara and tell her to her face that she deserved to be fired.
We've praised Lee in previous weeks but his behaviour last night was disgraceful as he shouted at Sara that next time if she doesn't contribute he will not accept it and will be taking her into the boardroom with him. Annoyingly Sara failed to defend herself - though possibly she was simply shocked after finding herself under attack from all sides.
Does Sara still deserve to be in the running? Well, it's difficult to tell because we haven't really seen her in action yet. Does this mean that she doesn't contribute or simply that she is not getting much screentime? We don't know. Hopefully she will get to be team leader next week and then we will finally see what she's made of.
The other memorable moment last night was Michael's triumphant - and very inappropriate - football yob yell in the boardroom. We thought poor Margaret was going to have a heart attack. Michael's team had a very narrow victory - mainly because the other team's idea was so bad. Earlier in the task he had spent several hours trying to work out where to put an apostrophe. Michael tried to find the answer by calling up the editor of the Telegraph and the British Library. Had he thought about using a dictionary? We know where we would suggest he put the apostrophe...
What did you think of last night's show? Do you think Sara was treated unfairly? Was Kevin the right person to go? Let us know what you think...

I thought it was disgusting on how sara was attacted when she got back to the house. kevin should of took jenny in the boardroom and not sara, am glad it backed fired on him and the arsehole as gone lets hope jenny or bitch face claire goes next week. I good for Raef for sticking up for her, i'd like to see sara stick up for herself they say the quite ones are worse if they push her so far she may snap and i would'nt blame her
Posted by: june.knowles1 on Thu May 01 03:51PM | Report abuseSara's idea was great but as per usual the bullies in the group were not prepared to listen As for their high opinions which they seem to have of themselves and the so called high profile jobs they have supposedly had before joining the Apprentice, some of them need to go on a course for spelling and grammer!!!! what a performance over one word - pathetic. The bullying that Sara endured by at the house was just not acceptable and those people who did that on camera should be fired!!!!!
Posted by: peterogers258 on Thu May 01 03:53PM | Report abuseKevin should have been fired ages ago for his fiasco in the kitchen episode. The treatment of Sara was an absolute disgrace. She should be more verbal, at times she appears very weak.

Posted by: jcusiter on Thu May 01 03:58PM | Report abuseseriously they were takin the p*ss talking like that to her. they say she never contributes but she was seen working on the cards and nobody listened to her when she made an idea. i think they are all racist. and jenny is such a b*tch hope she gets fired soon she gets on my nerves and wants to control everyone. yeah that stupid loser kevin deserved to go.
Posted by: meenair2003 on Thu May 01 04:05PM | Report abusei think sara should have stood up to the other contestants and i think kevin getting fired was the right decision because he totally ignored sara and jenny was a compleat idiot thinking of the enviromet idea and passing the message on a card. i think sara is getting bullied because of her race.

Posted by: p2eu_2ming on Thu May 01 04:08PM | Report abuseIt's funny how all the white folks scream 'not racism' and all the brown folks are screaming 'racism'. So as I'm a brownie I'm screaming subtle racism. Racism isn't just name calling or judgeing a person by the colour of their skin, it's become much more subtle than that. And you have to have experienced it in the workplace or anywhere else to know what it's all about. Anyway Sara you did good, your idea was shot down by Jenny the Chin because she didn't think of it and made herself look a total idiot with her nonsensical idea. Claire is a major stirrer and needs to stop eating anything including her own tongue. Alex your a bigger b**ch than most of the women. And Lee is definitely having cocaine withdrawal symptoms. Theirs something not right in his head. Maybe he was abducted and sexually abused by 'Aliens'. Kevin the gerbil deserved to go just cause he was rubbish. Gotta thing for Lucinda, she's proper cool and Raef's a star for sticking up for Sara. Helene should go back to her Yorkshire coal mine, just too petty and small minded, no class whatsoever.
Posted by: jayeshkc13 on Thu May 01 04:09PM | Report abuseThe way the candidates treated Sara was simple,horrible,childish bullying. I couldn't believe I was watching a group of so called 'professionals'! Jenny should definitely be the next to be fired,and hopefully have that silly smirk wiped of her face!
