apprentice

Ten muppets left now. All packed off amidst fervent glee to the haggling capital of the world, Marrakesh. Surprisingly, it was the boys and not the girls discussing what clothes to pack for their two-day trip, with Raef advising the chaps on linens and 'the African colours' - He really is a gem, isn't he? I'm so glad he's still there as he causes me no end of amusement!

Sir Alan couldn't make it in person to North Africa so they wheeled out a large TV, flanked by Nick and Margaret - both in textbook 'I'm English and I'm in Africa' attire - and this weeks task was delivered by the wonders of plasma technology... Ten items to purchase (see below), 5 square miles of souks, lowest total paid wins. Simple.

A mosque shaped alarm clock in green
A cream Berber bedspread with silver sequins
Grey slippers
Santos orange juicer
A blue cactus (specified height)
Large cowhide with tail attached
Kosher chicken
Dye
3 red Akal branded tagines
2 tennis racquets, medium strung

Jennifer 'cold as ice' Maguire was appointed team leader of Renaissance and immediately lost her cool in the Morrocan heat and set off into the maze of souks without the merest hint of a plan... Lee 'Steve' McQueen took time to formulate a grand plan before delivering his trademark "reverse pterodactyl" squawk to get Alpha on their way...

Renaissance lost after a catalogue of mistakes, including bungled haggling (Claire Young: "I'd rather buy it here, my feet are killing me"), purchasing the wrong items (Alex Wotherspoon buys the wrong tagines and Jennifer Maguire purchases the wrong colour clock) and a misunderstanding over Kosher chicken (Jenny Celerier and Michael Sophocles accept that a butcher saying 'allah' over a chicken is a suitable kosher blessing). They were all hauled over the coals back in the boardroom and these two witches got fired!
