As the sixth episode of Young Apprentice begins, could this be the sixth failure under Harry M's belt? All eyes are on his every move to see if he can redeem himself as the apprentices are sent to buy ten items in ten hours to be accessories for Madame Tussauds mannequins...
Lizzie is made project manager for Kinetic and straight-away gets scouring the yellow pages for potential stores. The internet is forbidden, therefore, this is going to be a hard task for a generation brought up with google with the most use they've probably put to a yellow pages being a doorstop (or maybe that's just me...). However, although I can bet my bottom dollar that Zara and Hayley have probably never set foot in Croydon before, surely they would be able to work out with their A-Z that targeting a jewellery shop a 2 hour drive away probably isn't the cleverest of ideas. On the other team, they clearly didn't get the memo that organisation is key as Haya, the project manager for Atomic, adopts the questionable strategy of jumping in the car for a spot of window shopping.
Poor Justin Bieber isn't safe anywhere these days as the groups search fruitlessly for a 34 inch chest suit for him. Harry M cements his public schoolboy credentials by insisting they look around Gentlemen's tailors in German Street for a suit. The fact that they are looking for a cheap suit in one of the most affluent areas apparently doesn't cross his mind or maybe he just doesn't realise as his suits from there have always been bought with his daddy's credit card. The other team fare much better by finding one at a cheap price on a children's clothing stall... 17-year-old Bieber obviously needs to get on the protein shakes.
However, the mystery 'dashiki' (or if you're Haya: "dashikoo", "dashaki", "dashokee??") causes most problems for both teams as they struggle to identify the item. Harry M redeems himself slightly by cleverly suggesting that Zara phones a library and asks them to look it up in their dictionary (if you're wondering it's a West African tunic). The other team have no such luck and their lack of organisation causes them to wonder around various London shops aimlessly. However it is Atomic that ultimately commit the most business faux pas as Lizzie fails to barter down a pair of stilettos (a rule of the task) and Zara decides to buy a gold £160 pocket watch, a fortune compared to the £30 version the other team scored. Unsurprisingly the curse of Harry M rains down again as Kinetic lose the task by a staggering £500.
Highlights of the boardroom include smug Zara claiming that phoning the library was her idea in an attempt to cosy up to Sir Alan but being caught out by Nick and Lizzie saying she needed to keep an eye on Harry M as if he were a toddler around an iron. However, Hayley has been lurking in the shadows too long and due to her demureness she is booted out. This episode leaves me even more scared by the thought of what would happen if Harry M won a task now. His head would most likely explode all over Sir Alan with the weight of its own ego and pompousness. Either way, Sir Alan's finger of doom is going get some extra flexing next week as there is a quadruple firing in the pipeline.
