He must make it that far, Margret will tear him a new one.

I think Margret is a little too subtle for the Baggs meister - its Claude we want for a bit of a-hole tearing

Any encounter between Baggs and Claude or Margaret would be worth watching.

So would a Baggs vs. Paul Kemsley (fellow Kn*b) scene, if the latter's business hadn't turned into a supermassive black hole.

I think Baggs and any of the interviewers would be classic.

Oh, you're right. I actually want him to make it to the interviews now. Maggie will PWN him!

My thought is that he will make the interviews - he has to, otherwise that will be one very boring show.

Liz and Stella are great candidates, but because they're so competent and corporate friendly their interviews will make very dull TV. Only Stubaggs can make that show worth watching.

I'm actually thinking that Stuart may be one of the first people not to be taken down by the interviewers. Even when LordSurallen has a dig at him in the boardroom, he completely laughs it off and seems to enjoy it. He was utterly oblivious to Stella's comments during the champagne tasting as well. I can picture him laughing away during the interviews while their attempts to be nasty just bounce right off him.

What if Laura made the interviews? Watching her squirm would have to offer a certain pleasure.

there's nothing wrong with Stuart.

done very well for 21. got on this show out of thousands, and not disgracing himself.

good luck to him.

I'm not going to lie - watching them destroy Laura would give me great pleasure too. However for all round family entertainment I think it has got to be Herr Baggs.

Stuart Baggs is too full of himself and far too two-faced.

He's a right nasty piece of work.


I'd like to see Laura Moore ripped to pieces in an interview situation as well. Her reaction to Stella changing where she and Stuart would pitch was juvenile in the extreme.

Laura's only good for one thing.

My pervy reaction - any video of this on the net?

The Brand Must, simply MUST, make the interviews. It would be TV Gold. If Tre Azam and his multinational business (the brilliant shut the bedroom door quote) was good surely the Brand has to have more to offer.

Stubaggs has been my favourite candidate since Tre.... both of them barking mad but totally riveting to watch.

Who could forget Tre's classic ... " It's all tits and fish ! "

Definitely. Not just in an ironic sense, either, though - Stuart's become my pet candidate. It was split between Lorraine and James last year, but I always tend to root for a candidate who's clearly quite fundamentally flawed, but also clearly has some damn good business sense. I think I like an underdog.

Shat myself most weeks by the end of last year's series, 'cause there was usually at least one of the above in the boardroom at any given time. Lorraine had good instincts but bad people skills, while James was a clever fella who refused to take anything seriously. Stuart, meanwhile, is a brilliant businessman crammed into the mind and body of a small boy. (I say, one year his junior. But looking objectively.)

Here's hoping.
I have a sneaky feeling that Lord Sugar quite likes Stuart.
He nearly cracked a smile when Stella snapped that on a previous task she been put her in a room with Stuart all day.

Stuart is the entertainment. I love it when the team he is on wins.
He isn't a Wagner or Widdecombe type of contestant on this reality show because although quirky he is actually quite productive.
