I hate the PR woman. The poor people who are going to be her P.A, and having to lie and say that her munterish daughter is looking "fabulous".

The voice over is a bit strange, too soothing rather than what the show would require. The PR woman, on the other hand, is stupid.
Not to mention her "energy coach" who just ended a conversation with "...oh by the way, your mum and dad are here too."
Her mum and dad, WHO ARE DEAD.

What a very bizarre programme. I only saw the last bit, but all of them were very unappealing. Mikey, the employers choice, had cold, dead eyes and seemed entirely blank. the 2 women were odd, and neither seemed to want the jobs - but who could blame them when the jobs on offer were working for arses!
The rolling text at the end saying that Mikey couldn't agree terms with Suzi (?) was funny. And he turned down £40,000 to travel around Europe for the horrid man and is still seeking employment. Hee!

Suzi Alexson, or Alexson PR. Her website still isn't up, but she does have a fan page on Facebook, with 12 fans(!), and is apparently giving away tickets to a celebrity party for the first 10 people to answer one of her topics. It's very funny.

Oh my god! This from her 1 and only blog entry ( suzialexson.blogspot.com/)"I have dated rich men, poor men, old ones , young ones , famous ones, not finding the right one, London men have forgotten how to be men, or is it us women who have confused them and forgotten how to be women. I took the children to Cuba for the Millennium, fell in love with a Cuban who lived in a shack and was earning $15 a month - married him by moonlight on the beach bare foot got him to London and then he disappeared OH yes I was conned BIG TIME! Eventually I found him had him arrested by immigration and locked up…… Cuba didn’t want him back so now immigration (my experience of the UK immigration system is horrific, within the Immigration offices the right arm doesn’t know what the left arm is doing there is zero communication!! No wonder we have negative immigration issues in the UK) let him go and I am still married to him because I can’t find him to divorce him!!!!"

"You're not gay are you? Do you think I'm gay? Do I sound gay? Well I'm not cos I have 6 fuckbuddies who are ladies. And I'm going to make you phone one and lie really badly. Are you sure you're not gay? Someone might think we are though."
What a bloody weirdo. And his HOUSE! What the hell was that thing at the bottom of the stairs? It was like a shrunken pigmy warrior.
PR woman was awful. She was a bit "Vanessa Felz". I found the conversation where the blonde applicant and awful PR woman were competing Max Clifford stories hilarious. And cheered when the blonde applicant said "That's great that you're happy to make a fool of youself." The black girl had no facial expressions at all. I loved the network cable hanging out the window.

How can you possibly be in PR and not know what a NDA is? Deluded bint. The bloke was just as bad, 'that's not my leg that's touching you' - barf!
The candidates all creeped me out as well, not sure why. All in all, a bizarre programme.

It's hard to believe they were real people, but I enjoyed watching this. I felt a bit sorry for the two PAs with experience because I think they soon realised they were on a losing streak with such bizarre clients.
I found the non-gay man oddly compelling to watch - I just can't believe that people like that really exist.
From my experience a lot of PRs are like her.
Will it just be more PAs next time?

This may be my new favourite programme - the clients were bizarre but I don't know how the blonde PA has ever held down a job with a gob like that.....she may have been right about Susie Lickyarse making a tit of herself with Max Clifford but generally when you're trying out for a new job it's best not to actually tell the boss that they're a fanny !
Also Peter whatisface's obsession with whether or not either of them were gay - oddest job interview of all time (not to mention illegal !).

Snerk. I just got an e-mail from Suzi Alexson's PR company informing me of her "incredible life journey which was not depicted in the show" and asking if I would like to interview her to hear her side of the story.
You'd think a PR person would have been fairly aware of the possibility of misrepresentation on television when signing up for the programme, surely?

Please interview her, just for our pleasure.

Wanabee PoshChav family are just awful! Especially the Gran.
I would employ Andrew the Almost Vicar. To look after my house. And maybe do other things.

Was that job offer made on headed notepaper with a FAMILY CREST?! Dear God how nouveau I bet they have fish knives. :-(

The posh lady who'd lived in Africa was the queen of pwnage. When she looked at the nouveau riche bathroom and muttered "pretty standard" the other woman's face was like thunder.
I did sympathise with her misunderstanding of the term 'housekeeper' as I guess it's true meaning is more of a management role. And good on the blonde lady for knocking back the 'competitive' job offer which amounted to about £15K for 100 hours work a week.
Andrew's comments about the awful plates and that glass thing with a candle in it were great. If he had worn the chauffeur's hat it would have made for great telly though.
Dog Spa Lady's lipstick was interesting. When her husband was taking photos of her panting at the table, I didn't realise it was a test-run for the dog portrait and was a bit worried just how far their doggie obsession went.

The tension between the Russian au pair with the amazing line in cutting sarcasm, and the inadvisedly bottle blonde bitch woman is amazing! She genuinely seems to believe that the au pair will probably kill her children. YOU INSULT MY NATION. WE RUSSIANS DO NOT FORGOT.
And oh god - the dark haired girl is surely that woman's secret daughter given up at birth...

"The cereal in the cat bowl had a hidden meaning." Well she is Russian, the well known cereal in the cat bowl threat is the equvilent to a Sicillian putting a horses head in your bed.

AJ, the blonde bitch woman walked like a Mitchell Brother. I've never seen a woman with such a butch walk.
And she had the nerve to tell Russian au pair that her stilettos were not appropriate? When she said that to her she was dressed like an S&M madame.
What a fucking bitch.

The Croydon Facelift woman was very scary indeed, never mind her calling Russians scary.

"The cereal in the cat bowl had a hidden meaning." Well she is Russian, the well known cereal in the cat bowl threat is the equvilent to a Sicillian putting a horses head in your bed. The oddest thing about that was when she said afterwords something like "my cat is going to have to eat out of a dirtied bowl now", as if it was truly a disgusting thing for her cat to have use a bowl that had been eaten out of contaminated by a Russian au pair hussy.

I just can't believe that with bed & board you only have to pay your 24/7 au pair slave £60 a week.
I liked the Russian strumpet - especially her non stop smirk.
