'Apprentice' Stella had 'painful childhood'
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/s108/...childhood.html
'Stella was able to do more or less what she wanted and she didn't know right from wrong. She was turning into a proper wild child.' I just like the idea of 'bad girl' Stella.

I think Stella is a great example of how to conduct yourself in business for a woman like me. I work in product development which is very male orientated and some times you have o be able to pull a few punches with the guys. I think she is GREAT!!

![]() After the 'final five' programme, however, I really like her. She's got one of those 'light up the room' smiles. |

I agree; Stella seems so down to earth and certainly deserves to win

Stella's great, one of my favourites from the start, and I would love her to win.
I'm sure that she has a fun side to her when she's away from the serious job of trying to win the apprentice. |

I like Stella, I think she's a smart woman who conducts herself with dignity.

After having seen the special I came away with a greater appreciation of Stella, considering how much she had to go through to get to where she is. Fair play to her grandma!

I love Stella, but I'm not sure that the 'final five' programme has anything to do with their viability as candidates. Sugar has always said he doesn't care about their sob stories. A lot of people have them, but not of a lot of people have the business acumen - which is very much not the focus of the 'final five' programme. On the one hand, it was nice to learn more about Stella but on the other, I felt like I was watching American Idol.

Sugar says he doesn't care about sob stories, but what he says and what he really does aren't always the same. I think Michelle's tough background was a factor in her winning. I don't say Stella or Joanna will win because of their background, but it certainly won't hurt them.
The final five programme has almost certainly thrown the dice in favour of Joanna or Stella winning the thing. The public do like a back story in general and we saw the tough backgrounds and self made careers of Joanna and Stella against the more obviously middle class upbringings of Chris and Jamie. Stuart was a bit less obvious but certainly he didn't appear to have struggled much in childhood and his paretns seemed pretty comfortably off. |

I hope Stella wins. Out of all the screaming shrews on the show she was the only woman I really, really liked right from the very beginning.
Liz was OK too. My top two are Stella and also Jamie. Luv them both.
