"do the french like children"
Your opinion on that statement please. With her poor grasp Susan would be wise not to go too far out on a limb - less is more.. |

that was quite funny, I don't think Susan engages her brain before speaking most of the time and I can see her annoying people with her questions like she did in the rubbish task. Should be a good episode.

Really don't understand why people see her as a potential winner, is it out of sympathy from the whole Zoe thing?

True she has made a few verbal gaffes and no one who makes verbal gaffes *cough* GWB *cough* ever gets anywhere.

It looks like child’s car seat or some other kind of child's equipment on the carpet.
Possibly it’s an expensive piece of kit and Susan is thinking out loud before the task. Do enough French people drive and do they love their children enough …. to spend mega Euros on our product? It’ll be interesting to see if Karren embittered remarks are spot on or if Susan is pre-planning and just rambling out loud pre the task. She was spot on with her critique of Susan's comments. |

![]() Anyway I've liked Susan even before Zoe droned her way to some screentime, I mean for the first few weeks she was practically missing in action. |

but she seems to get a lot more fans after that,After that episode there was a small group of posters here who really went to town on her. At one point there were seven anti-Susan threads on the front page. That is absurd and shows that there are some very twisted individuals about. When someone engenders that level of irrational hatred it tends to make others for whom she may not even be their favoured candidate (mine's Helen) come to her defence. |

But it's a good question. Are they? Anyone know?

I think she is a potential winner and always has been. Childish immaturity and continually bleating "it's so unfair" aside she usually makes the big calls and makes them right. In the last task she was completely right about Jim's feeble effort to negotiate with the first buyers. His need was greater than theirs. |

If you want to take the clip at face value and make Karen’s reaction the only point of your reply then yes, seeing Karen stop just short of having steam coming out of her ears amused me.
I was replying to your, err, point, about her "embittered remarks". Quote:

Karren was hardly a small step from having steam coming out of her ears.Karren is an excellent businesswoman and a role model. |

I think 'steaming' is a very good metaphor for the way Karen appeared. I've never seen Karen, Nick or Margaret that angry before.As a mother I think she found the idea that anyone could think that anyone - and certainly an entire country - could not like their children utterly absurd and somewhat distasteful. But being dismissive of groups you do not know seems to be a bit of a problem for quite a few of the candidates. The attitude of several of the 'Hip Replacement' team towards the over 60's was rather cringeworthy, |

That was probably one of the most cringeworthy comments I have seen in the show. |

Also, Susan and Zoe have been given loads of edit time apparently because of it, and Natasha, Helen and Melody hardly any, so it is relatively hard for anyone to champion the other women as potential winners. Helen does have some support, mainly because of one good task that happened to be recent. Melody had a good task at the start, but it's largely forgotten now. |

I'm not sure what the editors are trying to accomplish with her edit, are they hoping people will write her off as a bit of a mess or do they want people to root for her? Confused!!!Right now, it seems to be the latter option. |

Obviously the first bit was edited so it made her look like she was saying those things in-a-row, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't laugh at that. I can't wait to see Zoe's reaction in the episode ![]() |

the amount of abuse we give the germans, and nobody bats an eyelid, and one slightly ignorant comment about the french and the race card is out.

Neither was I (as my name implies) ...... and even I kind of figured that it was possible the french liked children and that they drove vehicles.
Susan could say she was an admirer of Hitler and there would be people on here saying 'Well maybe she's right' such is the love for that girl on here. Stop making excuses for when she comes out with completely idiotic statements. She's not saying anything racist or disparaging about the French; she's just asking stupid questions. |
