I am sure someone would know if there have been just three guys in eight before.

You have to say Jim is in danger next time, Leon is a gonner for certain next time is in as he does nothing.

Tom should be ok I would think

Leon and Tom will be in the top... 4 I think.

I like Leon, but think Tom and Jim are all talk.

Susan to win though

Susan is the one who's all talk, in my opinion.

I am not that keen on any of the men, loved Jim at the beginning but he has got really stubborn and arrogant of late!

But for me the best there is Susan and Melody! I really think that Melody is quite a good business woman but she does come over as very arrogant at times, although she has toned it down a little the last few weeks!

Gender splits :

Series 1 : 2 women, 6 men
Series 2 : 3 women, 5 men
Series 3 : 5 women, 3 men
Series 4 : 4 women, 4 men
Series 5 : 5 women, 3 men
Series 6 : 4 women, 4 men

I can't see it being an all-female interviews round to be honest. Zoe, Helen and Natasha were all pretty under the radar for the first month of the show. If they'd all made interviews I'd imagine highlighting them earlier. I think it'll be a one man, one woman final at the rate they're going.

No, I think that she has a very good concept of most of the tasks but she needs more confidence to follow her instinct and be more up front. I do think that as it gets down to fewer contestants she will come into her own more and we will see the real Susan! At the moment I think that she feels very intimidated by the stronger characters like Jim, Natasha and Zoe!

Leon has been very quiet for much of the process, but occasionally has moments of "genius" like his selling technique on the cosmetics task, and his idea to include the rubbish task in the magasine. That could be enough to keep his chances alive.

I suspect Melody could be in trouble if she doesn't do something memorable soon. She's competent at all the basics (she can buy, she can sell, she can pitch, she can graft) but I haven't seen her think outside the box much or drum up many ideas. One slip up and she's a gonner.

I think the next dismissal is between these two.

Nick is Susan's biggest fan, so she's going nowehere.

So twice before thanks for the stats I think it will be one man one woman final too.

Helen is being weighed down by the radar beam i think

I'd disagree, since she has been consistantly right about many things and others have refused to listen to her- that is really her problem in my opinion. She struggles to get others respect. It was nice to see Nick stick up for her tonight though. I would say it was quite close between Jim and Glenn.

I think that it will be two woman, my money is on Susan and Melody or Susan and Helen! I think that the only man that might be there would be Tom!

Yes! Hopefully leaving Tom until last.
I want to see Susan go to the final.

This series will probably be the same as series 5, with only one guy (Tom) making the final five.

Of the remaining women, it depends on which team loses that particular week. The only two women who I feel will be safe are Helen and Susan. The former for her track record and the latter because Nick loves her (plus she runs her own company).

That's the interesting part who swaps back over next week to make it 4 v 4 again

Leon will go in the next few weeks I reckon he's absolutely useless.

It's not bravery that makes Sugar get rid of a candidate it's sense (or at least should be).

If a candidate is not worth the time and chances anymore, Sugar should have the good sense to get rid of that person. And if any of the remaining candiates, male or female, are not adding up to be the correct package then Sugar should have the sense to get rid of them.

If Tom doesn't do well as PM then, on his track record and fact that he can't be heard over others, he may well be an easier option for Sugar to boot away (with the "regret" line). It seems unlikely now that Helen will go (given her track record) as well as Zoe too (as Lord Sugar seems to like her because he didn't get rid of her last week when she prob did deserve to go). I think Susan would have a good chance of going soon because Sugar something along the lines that she was only staying because of what she's done outside of the tasks (which would imply that it's her starting up her own business that is keeping her in?)..

As for the others, I would choose Melody over Natasha but I don't know if Sugar would. And out of Leon and Jim, what a choice, lol.

As a big Susan fan, I think that Sugar made it clear that he now expects Susan to step up and push herself forward.

If her team loses, I think she is a goner.
