In the same weekend that someone
with a name as unglamorous as Leanne Mitchell won The Voice, someone with a
name like a popstar won The Apprentice (BBC One, Sunday). At the start of the
series, Ricky Martin didn’t stand out at all – he seemed a little quieter and a
little blander than the swaggering wide-boy types and painfully shrill women
who always get fired first – but in the last few weeks he excelled,
particularly when sent out on his own to strike deals (and eat scallops). Since
The Apprentice is now about Lord Sugar finding a business partner, rather than
an employee, Ricky was clearly seen as a safe pair of hands.supra

In previous series, The Apprentice
final would see all of the fired candidates being brought back to complete one
last task, but this has now been scrapped in favour of something a little more
intense. The four remaining candidates (Ricky, plus Tom Gearing, Nick Holzherr
and Jade Nash) were aggressively interrogated about their business plans by
Lord Sugar’s panel of experts, which, despite the stern faces and impossible
questions, allowed us finally to see a sillier side to 26-year-old recruitment
consultant Ricky. He admitted, for instance, that he calls himself Ricky, and
not Richard, so that people remember him (that’s it, I’m changing my name to
Britney Spears). We also learned that in his application form he wrote that he
saw himself as Thor, in relation to Lord Sugar’s “godfather” (yes, he studied
biochemistry, not ancient mythology).supra

All in all, Ricky was a much more
ridiculous person than Tom, the likeable 23 year-old whom he narrowly beat in
the final. But he was a ridiculous person with a sensible business plan. And
while I’m disappointed that Sugar plumped for Ricky’s boring recruitment
consultancy for people with technical and scientific skills over Tom’s more
exciting but risky hedge fund with a twist (the twist being, the liquidity here
is fine wine), it doesn’t really matter, since the entertainment part is over
and we’ll probably never hear of either of them again.Cheap
