I've noticed that he constantly sticks up for her and defends her. Last week when she painted union jacks on all of the furniture, he did not have a bad word to say about her and instead just accused the others of picking on her. Tonight, she didn't utter a word in the boardroom but Sir Alan said nothing to her. She's actually my favourite, and I think she's definitely Sir Alan's. Apparently she is in property, and her business proposal has something to do with property too. Sir Alan has a lot of investments in property, so I'm wondering if the reason he's not singling her out is because he may pick her as the winner and invest the money in her. No way will he invest the money in the candidates that have proposals to do with food. He's more likely to go for property (Gabrielle) and health and beauty (Jade I think).

My post was slightly tongue-in-cheek but it's possible he likes her. She seemed to be a bit drunk in this week's task! Stay off the booze, Gab.
She may be another Susan - reaches the final, comes up short, but then he goes into business with her anyway after the show.
She helped come up with the name (that she couldn't remember)
I thought Sugar maybe wanted her in there. He even winced when she spoke. bwahaha

So far, she has contributed as follows:
Week 1 - Losing PM and a big reason for them losing the task was that she had no strategy to speak of
Week 2 - She and Jenna in charge of the maths and they cock it up spectacularly. For some reason Jenna gets all the heat for this and Gabrielle flies under the radar
Week 3 - Seems to have done very little, her contribution to the win was minimal (all I can remember is suggesting the name chucky chutney (?!?) and attending a couple of pitches and barely opening her mouth
Week 4 - she was her team's biggest seller, which is definitely to her credit. However, she went waaaay out of control on team spending and I personally thought her 'creativity' detracted from the value of the products rather than added. So positives countered by negatives.
Week 5 - on the losing team for the 4th week, did virtually nothing, but again flies under the radar in the boardroom.
I'm baffled as to why she's held in such high regard (except that it's probably because her business plan's good). But I will lose all patience with this programme if we get another Tom style winner
