For a moment I thought that Lord Sugar was going to ask Melody who he should fire

Not too dissimilar to the way Jim operates. Still unsure if that's a good thing or a bad thing!

It's bad Sid, very very bad.

If they survive come the interviews they will be landed on their arses with a resounding bump.

I find her very pompous & smug. It will be interesting next week when Melody, Zoe & Susan are in the same team.

Why? Melody has nothing to do with the feud between Zoe and Susan

I'm more than happy for Jim's arse to land with a bump on my lap

Only because of her "hear what I want to hear" filter. I think the interviewers will see through that, or at least they should. Her "global business" is less credible than Stuart Bagg's IOM telecom.

I'm afraid the constant gaping mouth would put me right off.

Besides, I already have an Ulsterman, two would be a tad greedy

Seriously though, I think if either he or Melody get to the interviews they will be torn to shreds.

It's OK, I'm willing to share

I'm off to check if Jim's joined Twitter. I think I might need someone new to stalk - the thrill of tweeting with Pantsman Phil is wearing off.

Sherlock did you think your thread will take this tangent?

Trust me, Zoe will be next week´s Melody (if you get my drift) if the trailers are anything to go by.

Have to admit to being slightly shocked at all the rude terms thrown Melody´s way, as she gets her points across very articular and doesn´t shout (plus it´s obvious that most people in the house DO like her, as shown in the various You´re Fired clips and she always has something nice to say about a fired candidate).

Was she a bit cheeky with the thruth? Probably, but she also sold the most on her team and basically was the only non-useless candidate on her team. Some people act like she is Katie Hopkins or something.

Katie Hopkins was very good at team working and very popular with team members when she led them. Melody doesn't have those qualities.

Did you get that she's won lots of awards and runs a global business? Some people might have missed it.

HAhahahaha

One word: cheese


Though you did make me laugh out loud, I will probably be a whole lot less on this forum the coming week (wouldn´t surprise me if Melody gets a few death threats seeing the reaction towards her on the forums).

Veyr nasty business

I agree, because both Melody and Zoe are strong characters! But as far as I have seen Melody has always got on well with Susan and as it has been shown that Zoe looks like she has another go at Susan next week it will be very interesting whos side Melody will take if she takes anybodys side that is!

Really looking forward to next weeks task!

Totally agree! I like Melody much more than Katie Hopkins. Yes, she is a little full of herself but she is a great sales person and she does a good job near on every week and she was definitely the best person in her group this week, without a doubt, the others were totally useless! The other 3 could have all gone and nobody would have noticed!

I'm not convinced by this 'Melody praising' by LS, I just think that of the three sat before him, he had little option but to keep her when you consider the wet performances by the two lads.

I thought at the start of the elimination that the three of them may have gone

LordSiralan will knock the stuffing out of her before the interview stage and fire her for being too agressive.

Melody bless her will have gone back to the house thinking that he has given her carte blanche to ride rough shod over her competitors. Little knowing that he has set her up for a fall.
