Jedi Jim has been my favourite from the beginning - his accent, his smile, and when he turns on the charm he could sell anything.
However, I don't think he is likely to win.

Used to be Helen,

Now,

Susan.

To be honest, I think she has the business acumen, the others to me, don't have that entrepeneurial streak, they are better off working for someone else instead.

Susan is young, she can gain experience in time and has the greatest potential anyway.

I can't see much in any of this years applicants tbh, considering the last few series. Nobody stands out here at all.
I hate to say it because I'm not so keen but Jim is the strongest all rounder here. He is the one with the strengths and he uses the bartering tool well. He takes huge gambles sometimes but he sticks to his guns. I think with some moulding from LS, he could be a very succssful business partner.

Not surprised that Natasha is bottom - she seems a thoroughly unlikeable person

Definitely Susan. Although she can seem quite childish, I see the most entrepreneurial spirit from her and she does seem to have a lot of common sense when it comes to business... I'm looking forward to finding out what their business plans are though because I can't really see a skin care company needing £250,000 investment unless she's going to branch out into other cosmetics or try to go international.... If it was for a job rather than an investment, Helen would be my choice.

Me too. Very whiney and drippy.

Er..... do you mean Tom or Jim?

Tom for me closely followed by Helen. Tom just edges it because he's gorgeous

Susan for me....

(she'll be fired next, as my choices in previous years have been wide of the mark)

She obviously is irritating to some, but that doesn't change what we've seen her do. She's shown that she has an instinct for a good product, is well able to sell (even in the cosmetics task, it's not clear that her sales were worse than anyone else's in the end), is willing to take an informed gamble and can lead a team effectively.

I'm not saying she's necessarily the strongest candidate, but I honestly feel those who think she's useless are being distracted from her real achievements by personal idiosyncracies which are really irrelevant.

Helen followed closely by Jim. Natasha is good for comic value, but that's pretty much it. No longer dislike Susan as much as I did, but her fans still really irritate me, and with Tom my dislike is growing by the episode.

susan for me.

Her story of growing up only confirmed what i knew. She's one tough cookie. And when it comes to being an entrepreuner she wipes the floor with the majority of the candidates except Tom.

she's also a nice person which certainly helps!

Whilst Susan remains firmly in the lead, Tom sneaks into 2nd place in front of Jim, whilst Helen & Natasha trail behind.

Get your votes in before Wednesday! (:

I still like Tom, but think Susan and Jim are stronger candidates.

I'm amazed that Natasha has even got 8 votes so far.
