I could help her shed a few pounds with a bit of 'excersise' if she let me.

she has been like this the whole show,when shes not PM she just spoils for arguments and demeans the PM

hope she goes next

Yeah, an occassional off-comment or rudeness, I'll let it pass. We all have off days, bad moments. It's that she's been a bitchy, disrespectful and childish for most of the series that makes me think that's just her personality and a unpleasant one at that.

I know that this is about business and business sense, but it irks me when nasty people go far in this process (not that I think she's particularly good at business either)

YES to both

I've seen Zoe's type a million times. She is the female version of Jim - she seems to have this control over everyone. She comes across as likeable, nice and lovely but behind the veneer there's a very nasty streak.

She did great there. She got everything right that Felicity got wrong: right product, right location, made a profit. She even prevented Susan from ruining it all by buying too much product.

Errr regardless, you do NOT march down to your employees and in front of fellow employess and customers bawl them out with a pathetic 'I told you so.'

That was unprofessional and immature to the extreme.

If my boss ever did that to me, I would make sure his life was hell and that I knew every single detail of my rights to employment.

I'm always skeptical about the way candidates react because the editing can be really clever. However, from what I've seen from Zoe I just feel her undertone and demeanour is too pessimistic and bitchy.

I don't think she has any business sense at all, and she certainly doesn't know how to talk to people. I didnt like the way she spoke to Susan on several occassions and Glen too.

I have no idea what Lord Sugar was thinking firing Edna over her, but we all make mistakes.

I don't like Zoe, I agree with many on here that she has a nasty streak but I also think she knows the show well and is playing the game. By that I mean she's watching everyone else closely for a fall guy and if she spots a weakness, she'll bring it up for all to see so when it comes to the board room everyone will agree with her.

She's clever in the way she handles herself in the boardroom like she knows what LS wants to hear. She admitted her mistakes and brought in two people that had good reasons to get fired so we may be seeing her for a while yet.

She's awful - and she looks really scruffy.

But as Kevin Bridges said about Zoe on TAYBF:

She may be annoying but she's fit.

That's a blokes perspective of her. Wonderful eyes and the re-incarnation of Chloe from 24. Beautiful, can forgive her almost anything.

Gotta say I'm really surprised to see some men saying they find her attractive. I can understand them saying it about certain women on the Apprentice but surprised at this. She has a face like a smacked a*se all the time and is just so lacking in any kind of positivity or energy - and that droning voice!

Zoe is clearly not that pretty at all.

she is absolutely gorgeous

never watched 24, might have to do a bit of googling......

You think Zoe is gorgeous? Was that sarcasm?

just looked, 24 actress nowhere near as pretty or look much like her

no, lust

She is supposedly 26 years old, but looks 45...

I agree, I was waiting for Lord Sugar to say something. Would have quite liked another double firing actually!

Its just you Peter and the other Zoe haters.

She's none of those things. She's intelligent and humourous. Its just she has to work alongside air-headed, toy-throwing nonentities like Susan.

No, it isn't just him. A lot of people felt the same way because of the way they saw her behave towards Susan this week, and would disagree with you that there was an excuse for it.

I don't doubt Zoe is intelligent (perhaps not as much as she thinks she is) but she also acted like a schoolgirl bully. Professional people don't behave that way even if they do find someone irritating. She quite clearly has a personal problem with Susan and was being a malicious cow. That's immature and unprofessional.

For the record, I don't think Susan is either an air-head or a non-entity. But she seems naive and not forceful/direct enough when she needs to be. That said, I can't imagine it's easy with someone like Zoe in her face belittling everything she says.

Zoe made some quips about Susan but I would say it was bitching. I wouldnt describe it as bullying. Its no more than what I would say about people in the environment I work in. But the next day you talk about it, draw the line and move on, and I am sure thats what Zoe did after they returned to the house.

She is nothing of the sort.

She is a PM outside of the game show. She is a strong woman in business. She is also a pretty good organiser. Quite frankly there are too few strong, good, women in business. Plenty of people feel threatened by strong women in business. Just like when Karren Brady first came to Birmingham City.

I like Zoe as a PM. I would happily work in a team managed by her.

Of course Susan is not an air-head or a non-entity. She left China, went to a new country, learnt a new language and has been educated to a high standard. She is very bright and very intelligent.

However I do not think your personal attack on Zoe is either fair or reasonable. You just seem to be doing to Zoe everything you accuse her of doing to Susan.

MY personal attack on Zoe? I am talking about specific behaviour that I watched along with everyone else. Not entirely sure why you're singling my comments out here? I certainly don't call people airheads or non-entities, that's for sure.

Admittedly, I did say I wasn't sure she was as intelligent as she thinks she is, and I thought in this instance she was behaving like a malicious cow, which to my mind was unprofessional and immature. But my comments are specific to the situation and her behaviour towards Susan, not a personal attack on Zoe.

And as a matter of fact, I was pretty impressed at the way she took responsibility for her failings in the boardroom. Personally, I prefer to look at behaviour in specific situations instead of making blanket judgements about people and ignoring anything that contradicts that. Neither unfair or unreasonable really.
