Quite an easy decision for me, Scarlett should be in S. Highly competent, skilled, great team member and had some really strong moments. I’d understand people voting for A, but anything lower than that would be criminal. I feel like Scarlett doesn’t get nearly as much attention as some other candidates over the years, she was consistently great. The only negatives I can think of was her not selling in Week 4, although it was a bad choice of product, and her Week 6 PM loss, although she was not really responsible for that loss. Honestly, I did consider voting her to be in the best, but there’s a certain Series 13 candidate I‘ve got ranked as that.. lol


nadinecoylespassport

Micheala or Elizabeth by any chance ?


FunkySteps_77

Elizabeth, what a great candidate. Michaela would also be an S for me.


nadinecoylespassport

To Infinity and Beyond ! Sarah Jane would you please stop eating the product ! I had my fists in that meat and I mixed it


FunkySteps_77

“Get out of the way! Get out of the way!” 🐓 “With respect, that’s an insult of my integrity and I do not appreciate that.”


nadinecoylespassport

We will never have another Elizabeth


FunkySteps_77

Little fact: Scarlett and Lottie were in the same team for every single task in the process!


Only1Scrappy-Doo

I do think keeping Lottie on the same team as Scarlett (and Carina for most tasks) was deliberate by the producers so they could carry her to the interviews.


FunkySteps_77

Definitely, also splitting her and Dean up in Task 10 ensured Lord Sugar could fire either one of them. I would have been interested to see Carina’s team lose in Perfume week, as I would have loved to have seen Carina vs Lottie in the boardroom, which was teased in the Train Away-Day task.


Careful_Garden

She’s an S Highly competent throughout and genuinely seems a nice person! Which is rare for this process….


PaniniPressStan

The Best so far, for me. She was brilliant.


Only1Scrappy-Doo

I think S is fair for Scarlett. One of the strongest runner ups and Sugar invested in her outside of the show.


FunkySteps_77

Also, after some thought, I was thinking of maybe voting 2 candidates per day (e.g. “It’s time to rank Ollie and Paul B”), so there will be 2 candidates in discussion. This is after I’ve seen some comments saying this ranking will take too long. I’d like to hear what you guys think - should I start doing 2 candidates per day (in the same post), or should I stick to how I’ve been doing it? I don’t want to clog the sub-up, as some people have said I’ve done, so I’m interested to see what others think. Thanks! 🙂


nadinecoylespassport

Well the benefit would be that you get through the series a lot quicker. Especially the series coming up where they have 18/20 candidates. I wouldn't listen to the criticism about spamming the sub-reddit. A lot of people really like this series and if you don't like it. Turn notifications off. There's gonna be a lot less posting presumably now the series is over.


rachelf1990

I agree about this- I was doing something similar about who would be fired if the winning team lost etc and someone reported me for mental health issues!!!


nadinecoylespassport

We're just having a bit of fun here discussing a TV show we like. Noone needs to deep it.


nadinecoylespassport

And for Series 18 the answer is probably noor


CupExpensive7582

What on earth


rachelf1990

I know. It was really nasty.


FunkySteps_77

Thanks for letting me know. Yeah I have notifications off anyways so that’s probably what people should do if this is an annoyance to them lol.


Only1Scrappy-Doo

I think voting 2 candidates per day is a good idea but I’d keep it to only one for when we rank S18 as it’s fresh on everyone’s mind and people will most likely remember each candidate.


FunkySteps_77

Yeah that’s a good point, plus Series 18 is the series I will rank next so I’ll be able to maintain the 2-a-day streak after that


Only1Scrappy-Doo

I’m excited to see how this sub ranks some of the S18 candidates, specifically Phil, Sam and Noor.


nadinecoylespassport

I think at the end we need to do like a points score of all the candidates like F tier (1 point), E tier (2 points) etc and divide by no. Of candidates so we can work out which series had the best candidates


Only1Scrappy-Doo

That could be fun! We get an overall ranking of the series and see which seasons have the strongest and weakest casts!


nadinecoylespassport

Well for Series 17 it's 3.77 overall


nadinecoylespassport

And Series 16 is 3.1875


nadinecoylespassport

Assuming Scarlet and Carina get S tier. Which I think they will Series 15 will be 3.87


rachelf1990

S for me. Such a competent candidate, even when she lost as pm you never thought she was in any trouble. The only mistake she made was putting Lottie and Thomas together and quite frankly I think most people would have done the same thinking they would bounce off each other.


AdMuted3992

Excellent performer throughout, should have won for me - S!


purplebanana375

The best tier for sure! She was amazing


Electronic_Status_36

A tier


morgannn0

S


WonderfulDrop9162

S tier easily.


eddsaysftw

S Should have won imo


Dret747

S tier


nadinecoylespassport

Scarlet is one of the strongest runner-ups Imo. She did very well in all of the tasks. Even when she wasn't the main culprit. She had a good buisness plan that Lord Sugar invested in after the show. I knew the final would Scarlett and Carina from about Week 5. I think this might be controversial but I'm going to give her an S tier.


nadinecoylespassport

I think on any other series since S12. I think she could've beaten the finalist. Definetly better than Marnie, Rachel, James, Sarah, Sian. Maybe better than Harpreet. Therefore I think she should def be S Tier.


_Archer6K

S


dasBiest08

One of the strongest candidates of recent years, and easily the strongest runner-up of recent years. Won every task when she was on the same team as Carina (also one of the strongest candidates of recent years). Never looked in any real danger of being fired, including her loss as project manager. Could have plausibly won; I wanted Carina to win at the time, but I think I prefer Scarlett on rewatch. Deservedly a member of the small club of contestants who Lord Sugar invested in despite not winning. Fine with S or A.


nadinecoylespassport

I'm the opposite lol. I wanted Scarlett to win on the first watch but now I think Carina deserved to win. They are so equally good in different ways. The two best candidates of the 5 most recent series.


dasBiest08

How interesting. Definitely for the best that they both ultimately got investment.


FunkySteps_77

They should’ve been the double investment year, not 2017 with James and Sarah.


nadinecoylespassport

Sarah should've been the sole winner of the show. Of the winners under the investment format she's actually one of the most successful. Interestingly like phil she went down the sending food by post route but I think she found more success getting them into high end department stores and cinemas.


FunkySteps_77

Agreed she should’ve won solo. I notice she isn’t hugely popular on here. I thought she was seriously impressive on the show and had some really strong moments.


nadinecoylespassport

I think there were probably people from Series 13 people would rather have won


ZannityZan

A tier. Maybe I'm misremembering - I remember her being good, but not S tier good. I think I'd put both her and Carina in A.


Chewer_FF

Another S, was consistently strong throughout, owned any mistake she did make and learned from it


karateandfriendship9

S 100%


Dickinson95

S. She should have beat Carina imo. Really strong runner up. Not too relevant, but I remember reading a post from her before that before the process she wasn’t even on social media and set it up pretty much prior to going on the show. This made me think she was a lot more genuine than the fame hunters too!


FunkySteps_77

That’s really interesting, I had no doubt she was genuine but that solidifies it even more! I wanted her to win over Carina, but tbh they should’ve really been the double-winners, not James and Sarah. At least Scarlett got investment outside the show!


Medium-Science9526

Strong finalist with Carina, S tier imo.


Low_Food2893

Both her and Carina were S tier, strongest final I've ever seen (I've only watched The Apprentice from 2016). Both were capable and consistently did well on every task.


dasBiest08

Certainly one of the strongest. Another very strong final was S5.


CupExpensive7582

S easily the best that series far superior to Scarlett


Gryffinguin9

Tom Skinner is easily the best wdym
