In yesterdays task, she made a few cat sounds, and told the pm we are going to get thrashed. In the boardroom, distanced herself from the app (as she thought she was going to lose).
LOL at contradicting yourself in one sentence

You can say what you want about Melody, but at least she is direct and honest about it (mind you, Debra and Liz can tell you that ain't a good approach to get the public behind you).

I like Edna at the minute.

Also, is it just me or is Glenn rather a hotty?
Glen is hot! But I think the GLOVES have had their own stand out moment and have to be favourite!

Tom. Hope he gets through till the field thins because I think he'll be funny

Disclosure: I don't know anything about business or give a damn about it either so I'm not choosing sensibly, just picking the person I like

What has melody done to justify her 'one of the favourites'? I cant see it myself. In the first task she didnt spend all the money. They didnt get any discount at the market stall. She couldnt organise more product to reach them on time. Her favourite word was "I".
I think many people get taken in by the 'Queen Bee' type of woman on this show - similarly to Liz last year and also Kate Walsh. They're like the 'popular' girls at school and I can identify that kind of person a mile off. They might be chatty/sociable but no way could I see AMS wanting one of those irritants as an apprentice, let alone a business partner. As long as the women on this show wear the amount of make-up that a Big Brother contestant would wear, pose, and are vocal without being overtly bullying, the public seems to go mad for them regardless of their levels of professionalism/integrity.

I think Melody ultimately might end up a bit like Liz who I never rated much (I backed Stella from the beginning) - not at all sure that Melody will be a finalist. I want to see more from some of the other women who haven't been focused on much so far.

Uhhmm....for the rest everything ok there

Personally, I don't think that Melody will be a finalist, but as of now she is easily the best female this series (and yes, I know that we still haven't heard from half of the females this series).

This should have been done as a poll.

Anyway right now I'm team Jim for the boys, Melodie for the girls but still it's early days yet!

If she told the PM they would get thrashed, how could she distance herself from the product AGAIN in the boardroom

I can understand criticism, but it has to be based on something logical (see what I did there ).

When she said they would get thrashed, it was based on the presentation, and not the app. She even commented, that Edna didnt even tell people how to download it. In the board room she said the app was rubbish. So no contradiction in my original post. Maybe you should concentrate more

To be honest I didn't see any contradiction in the post you are speaking about and I don't see "what you did there" either. I must be singularly unobservant.

Glen looks EXACTLY like the baldy from The Wanted in my opinion

Melody and probably Leon, though Susan rambling on about an app and no one having a clue what she was talking about was definitley a highlight

My faves:
Tom. I think he's sweet and I'm loving his DS style comments to Alan in the boardroom.
Susan. She's young, energetic and nice.
I don't know her name, but the blonde/brunette woman who doesn't wear glasses. I think she's really nice but also very logical and practical.

Ok, if you say it like that then there was no contradiction

However, Melody and Susan both said to the camera that they disliked the product (during the task). Their point of view on it was already known to the audience.

Tom, although I am starting to wonder if I was being too optimistic of his potential (based just on the fact of him being an inventor). In terms of the two tasks, I have yet to be impressed or enlightened by what his actual capabilities are, creative or business wise! So my support thus far lies purely on him being a nice guy (ha , oh dear).

I quite like Leon. And Susan too, actually. Seems to be a weaker field this time round though.
