This is something I was thinking about when I saw Melissa's firing. There are loads of fiery characters this series and it got me wondering how they might mix with previous ones.

Everyone answer the post above you on how you think the candidates would bond, then choose two other lots of candidates for someone else to comment. Would they be friends or just think the other plain weird?!

I'll start:

Debra Barr (Series 5) and Paloma

Tre Azam (Series 3) and Dan

Dan and Tre - basically the relationship between Rory and Tre.

Debra and Paloma - basically the relationship between Debra and Yasmina.

I'd like to see how Katie Hopkins and Melissa would have fared with one another.

A StuBaggs (TM) and Michael Sophocles/Ben Clarke pairing would also be fun...

Haha, Dan vs Tre. I think it would've been even worse. I don't see Paloma as even touching Yasmina in terms of skill - I loved her in the first 2 eps, now I think (as I've seen someone else on here point out) she moves in quick to make bad/inevitably invalid deals then straight away points the finger elsewhere. She might make interviews as she gives good boardroom but I doubt she'll win.

Now Stubaggs, Sophocles and Ben Clarke in a room I would pay to watch! I'd also throw in Phillip Taylor and Syed for extra fun!

I'd put Laura Moore vs Lucinda Ledgerwood

I said Yasmina because the thought of an argument between Debra and Paloma reminded me of the car park cat fight the former had with Yasmina.

Laura vs. Lucinda - let's just say it would all end in tears for everyone.

Phil Taylor vs. Syed - TV Gold (basically Syed vs. Paul Tulip in the S2 final), and my money's on Syed.

Kristina and Liz - I think they'd get on well.

Stella and Katie Hopkins - good bedfellows?

What about Raef and Rayleigh? Reckon they'd make a cute twosome with their public school manners?
