Not a great year lookswise for the women compared to some years. However Laura stood up for herself in the boardroom and looked mighty fine throughout.

    She reminds me of Nichola McClean.

    Not very endearing to me. She comes across as a bit blinkered like why she didn't realise that she should have had control of the money that was to be spent on the task. She's also too eager and doesn't implement things very well.

    She came across as a bit of a viper in the boardroom. Very quick to attack others and didn't defend herself very well I think.

    That's not a good thing. I did notice she stated herself she was an attractive businesswoman.

    She came over quite badly in the boardroom i thought tonight not willing to take any responsibility for the failure of the task. Yes Nicola McLean, she does look like her!

    She slightly looks like Michelle from series 2.

    I didn't see feisty, I saw aggressive.

    And I can't comment on how attractive Laura is because I don't really know what she looks like! She wears make-up and fake tan by the trowel-load.

    Sorry. The only girl I've warmed to is Katie, and maybe Gabrielle.
    TBH, the way she acted tonight, Laura looks like she'd be a nightmare to work with...
    Nice eyes though ... under the make-up.

    feisty, not fiesty.

    I am somehow surprised LS saved Laura this week. She was a complete mess and could have done better.

    Her voice is a little bit too squeaky and I don't find her hot

    I do think she's nice-looking.

    In honesty, although she's my favourite, I must admit that she was a bit too disorganised as PM (though as her team acknowledged, she actually did do a lot right; Contestant Nick did say she was good at inspiring the team). She also didn't really impress in the boardroom, where she seemed to be flailing around a bit, joining Jenna in a shouting match then telling her to "stop shouting" and desperately grabbing at things that Karren had said.

    I hope she does better next time.

    She was my favourite before tonight but not any more :(

    I don't care that she lost the task, but she came across as very bitchy tonight, and much too aggressive.

    Katie is my favourite girl now.

    Last night must have been the bitchiest boardroom ever, it does embarass me that a fellow Scot can be so vicious. They weren't even humorous comments they were nasty, I also liked Laura before this task but I have marked her card now lol.

    I think Laura is being portrayed as the girl from the wrong side of the tracks character this year similar to Natasha last year if her website is anything to go by

    http://www.laurahogg.co.uk/

    This might be why Lord S kept her

    Laura's complete lack of humour marked her out for me. And little ability to duck and dive in the Board Room, just a full frontal approach which she got away with because of Jane's poor sales. She doesn't strike me as having much ability to learn from her mistakes.

    She clearly has a good imagination if she thinks her shop is in the West End of Glasgow. Must've missed her creating a "comfortable,relaxed environment" in the boardroom. :D

    Successful businesswomen should never shriek and shout like an old fishwife. It's not at all becoming.

    She also described herself as attractive and when asked who impressed her she only mentioned that she had impressed herself. Not the brightest button in the box.

    I would say more struggling in the boardroom becuase she tried to justify her worth more by what someone else didn't do rather than what she did do (which I think makes it look like she was lacking in ways to solve problems herself as PM if there were problems still ocuring with her team mates uner her instruction). Of course she can't see and hear everything but she didn'tt look to give a large amout of specific/clear instruction either, which then just leave the open for fault because of an ambiguity of communcation. I would think most PMs should be saying to sub teams (or teams that are away from the for a period of time) that they should be calling her first just to check on things before that final figure/decision is said yes to. It's just one call and, as long as it doesn't come in the middle of a pitch to buyers (because sometimes the teams are split on the occasions) then it shouldn't be too hard for the phone to be answered.

    She just had so much blame for Gabrielle that ironically she would look abit suspect (in terms of her management) herself (which she prob didn't bank on).

    I imagine under all the slap she's not unattractive but I find her vanity and self confessed conviction in her ability to manipulate others to be very unappealing. Her blindness to her own mistakes ( "I was very impressed by myself actually"):rolleyes::D suggests that she was totally delusional when assessing her own contribution to the project.

    She should have gone.

    Far from "feisty" imo. Laura comes across as a self absorbed gobby bitch.

    Fair doo's though, if she took some of that crud she plastered over her face, she may look atractive.

    Jesus Christ, there's always someone.

    For the record, your first line doesn't start with a capital letter. And you need to end your last line with a full stop, surely? :eek:
