We are down to 10 6 women, 4 men, however the other 9 I can recall something they have been involved in good or bad.

I just cannot think of anything involving Helen at al in 5 episodesl

She had a "nice way" with the customers during the beauty treatment task. Hmmm - she's been good at backing Zoe up????

She's been on the winning team a lot so we don't get to see as much of her as some of the more controversial candidates.

In all seriousness, I think she talks a lot of sense and could be one to watch.

I remember her putting her self forward in week 1 or week 2 and she was shaking quite badly. Even Natasha has done more than her.... and thats saying something.

Says it all!

The wide-eyed, sleeked-hair one who backed up Zoe in the public showdown with Susan when they were making it clear that she had overestimated how many of the tanning solution bottles they would sell during the beauty task.

Last night, she.....er.....um......what team was she on?

I feel if Helen was brought back into the broadroom next week, her chances of surviving would be less than zero. She has done less than Ellie so far in the series.

Helen needs to put herself forward more, maybe next week could be a good starting point!

I couldn't remember who Helen was until a poster above described her.
None of them stand out that much though, do they. A bland lot on the whole.

She has done very little, very much a "backgrounder", moreso than any other candidate, even Ellie.
She's only survived through being on the winning team. She'll be gone when she's in the firing line.

The funny thing is she does talk and does get involved (to some degree) but isn't very memorable when she does.

I still remember when she put herself up for PM in the first task against Melody and at that point I did think, oh, these two look strong, want to be noticed straightaway by putting themseleves forward but since then, even though she hasn't been completely mute till now, she is still for some reason quite forgettable (which isn't good for her).

Well, she's avoided the boardroom which is a sure ticket to the final...

Candidates feature more when they make important or amusing mistakes. Not featuring can be a good thing.

Helen was working with Glenn and Zoe on the advert. She was the one who asked whether "see their light" could be whispered.

She's came across okay so far despite her awful first impression "Work is everything to me. I don't care about my personal life". I think she is only one bad task away from getting fired though.

The PM was acting like a buffoon and clearly annoyed them by ignoring their morning's work.

Under the circumstances it's not in the least surprising that they were laughing at him when he was being ridiculous.

Had they lost there is no way that anyone other than the PM would have walked given that he assigned a sub team to do research and then ignored them to promote his own idea.

She's had a very low key edit.

As others have pointed out, people who do not fail in an amusing way or get into loud arguments often do not get a lot of screen time.

It will be interesting to see if she suddenly pops into the limelight or Sugar tells her to sling her hook, because he 'doesn't know what she does', the first time she's in the boardroom.

Whatever, she's dead cute.

It would be quite amusing if, with many of us failing to remember her right now, Helen went on to win!

That's how a lot of people felt about Michelle in series 2.

(I was a fan of Michelle, but even I didn't really notice her until the 4th ep.)

But the reason they didn't lose is because Glen had the good sense to ignore and overrule their work - Luckyfish was almost as bad as Everydog!

They were very unprofessional, giggling and rolling ther eyes at the PM's task-winning ideas.

Is she is the one that looks like she has escaped a victorian gin palace? She has been in the boardroom a few times scraped hair and gobby, If she was cast in a jack the ripper thriller she would be one of the first to get the chop, looks like she wears too much cheap makeup, Think she directed the jumping dogs

That's Natasha (directed the dog advert).

Helen is the slim girl who has barely appeared in the edits. (She was backing up the PM when said PM had a go at Susan and laughing with Zoe. I hope the edits she has appeared in are not typical.)
