Worst set of Apprentice contestants yet? Twitter definitely thinks so
We're only two weeks in, and it looks like Lord Sugar isn't the only one who can barely believe this year's Apprentice contestants have made it as far as they have in life.
Following last night's episode which saw teams, Titan and Nebular, go head to head in an advertising campaign for Japanese jeans, Twitter went into complete overdrive.
From Jessica's tearful meltdown to Karthik's nonstop ranting, this year's contestants have a long way to go before they've proven they're up to the task.
And with Lord Sugar looking like he'd be more than happy to pull the plug on the whole thing with every passing moment, this year's series is definitely one of the most tense to date.
Thankfully however, the episode – which saw neither team win – was peppered with classic one-liners, woeful puns and individuals you wouldn't leave in charge of a balloon, let alone a quarter of a mill investment.
Twitter, take it away.
Catching up with #TheApprentice. What a shower of shit. How did any of these candidates get through?

But if you adore unbearably awkward exchanges, egomanical entrepreneurs and some of the worst marketing ideas you'll ever see, then you're with this girl.
Tonight's #Apprentice was literally the best episode!! #karthik – that was close, hope you stay until the end@bbcapprentice @Lord_Sugar
