I want that stuff, in there!

Charleine Wain: Yeah, not with you though Richard!

(Gary and Charleine carry two large boxes to their stall on the first day of the task)

(On the second day of the task, Richard tries to attract customer into his team's discount store, all the while being watched from the upper floor by Vana and Brett)

Richard Woods: We're Manchester's newest discount store. I've even got it on my T-shirt, that means it's true.

(on Versatile's party after they lose the task) It was supposed to be fun. It seemed to me more like an Ofsted inspection.

(Connexus have won the task and Lord Sugar sends them on their treat but Scott remains seated)

Scott Saunders: It's alright. I would just like to quickly say, thank you for the opportunity but I would like to exit the process at this point.

Lord Sugar: Well that's your choice if you want to...

(Connexus leave the boardroom)

Richard Woods: Oh, my god!

(Scott leaves the boardroom)

Charleine Wain: My god!

Claude Littner: He's been floundering for weeks really.

CWCharleine Wain

(to Selina) Do NOT talk over me! I am talking here!

(On Charleine's business plan) Expecting her to become as big as Toni & Guy is like expecting Claude to grow an afro.

(Reading from Richard's plan) "Project X. A fully managed and implemented business growth campaign that starts with a focus base camp, to remove the clouds from our client's business growth mountain..."

(Stunned and bewildered look from Claude)

(The initial interview)

Vana Koutsomitis: So do you want me to give you a bit of background about why I know there's an opportunity? Because obviously, that's going to your first question.

Claude Litter: Why don't you let me ask the first question rather than predicting it?

Why does Lord Sugar call you Valentino?

Joseph Valente: 'Cause my surname's "Valente", the Italian and I'm a bit of a romancer.

Claudine Collins: Are you?
