I’m assuming that you want to know what happens, or already do know…if not, don’t carry on reading!

So, we met the contestants. We gawped at the house. We saw Sir Alan with his lovely tan. The teams chose their names: boys – Certus (later rubbished by Sir Alan as it was already the name of a company one of the boys worked for!); girls – Stealth. Team leaders were chosen: girls – Jadine and boys – Andy. I’ve never seen a more unwillingly chosen leader! No one wanted to step forward the lead the boys’ team, which is unusual in itself…in the first few tasks you always get some big-headed one jumping up and down to be able to be manager. The boys voted for Andy, who still tried to pass leadership over, before being outruled.

Next day, teams are summoned to the Isle of Dogs. Alan ups  the ante on Donald Trump, and finally turns up in a helicopter. And nearly sweeps half his contestants away. Then announces the coffee-selling task, and swaps the team leaders so Andy manages the girls, Jadine manages the boys. Clever!

Andy ends up being too nice a guy, and not one for making decisions. Jadine gets stroppy with the boys. The girls buy too much coffee and milk stock. The boys can barely buy it in the first place, and buy the wrong type of coffee. The girls mobile unit is a failure, parking up in the cheap-caff central that is Chapel Market. The boys do a roaring trade from their van. The girls do well in their stall, the boys less so from theirs. But the boys win overall!

Andy brings Sophie (purchasing error) and Gerri (location error) back into the boardroom. But he is fired for ultimately not managing well enough. Before a final plea to Sir Alan (after the “You’re Fired!, Andy asks Sir Alan if anything will change his mind…well no, he’s already said the final word!), he’s off out the door with his suitcase.
