I get that pete just trying to get some emotion or passion out to show she wants it............

There is method to my meanness

Gav I do feel you too interviewed well but it was lacking some emotion parts of your interviews were great but then there were other parts which were monotonous and the answers were a little dull........

Why wasnt your passion consistant ? Was it nerves or what ? I just feel you could do more and show more emotion too...........

I'd just like to say that if you have any other questions for me, I'd be more than happy to answer them. (:

I don't really know why my answers came off as dull, and I really didn't mean for that to happen. My passion has been contasnt through the whole contest and I really am putting all of my energies towards winning. I want to win this competition so badly. I was a little bit nervous about the interviews but I don't think I allowed it to get in the way of my performance, so I'm not entirely sure why I wasn't connecting if it looked that way, because I felt on the whole that I answered the questions well.

Got to say you interviewed well but are you too cocky about yourself ? There is a fine line between confidence and arrogance, be very careful not to cross it as once you do there is no going back .................

You need to come across as a team member and arrogance doesnt fit in. What do you think of the suggestion you are arrogant or *cocky* personally ?

Saying that I came across as 'robotic' is one thing - at least I can argue against that - but it's entirely another to suggest that I didn't mean what I said, because I did, and I still do. I'm not robotic in the slightest; as I've stated, I have a more measured approach in my responses than a couple of the other candidates, but this is not a bad thing. I've also been relatable throughout the process, and I've developed and maintained strong friendships along with succeeding as a candidate - would I have managed this if I were difficult to relate to?

I also don't think anybody can realistically accuse me of not having 'spark' or 'creativity' - I have been one of the MOST creative candidates throughout this process, coming up with original ideas on a regular basis, and I've been massively enthusiastic about winning and doing my best in every task. I've given my all every step of the way in this game, and I'm giving my all now.

I'd like to say that Carlisle's biggest criticism of me (how I went about task 4) is, at the end of the day, one of the main reasons that we won. Had I not went about it that way, the chances are we'd have went with a £140 TV and a £99 Rolex, but I found them cheaper and we won. Yes, the total amount the other team spent on the TV & watch was cheaper than ours, but that doesn't discount the fact that had we not got them at that price, we'd have lost. Other than that and one or two other small things, the only criticism I seem to have received is my losing streak and I think that if that's the only bad thing people have to say about me, then that's more of a positive than a negative.

Maybe it's not coming accross through my answers, but I really do want to win this competition, and if I got further, I would put a million percent into making sure that happened. I think I've shown that I've put a lot of effort into the competition, and that I've worked hard - if the major criticism is that I'm a little bit robotic, even if I think it's untrue, it just reflects that I'm someone who's gets on with things without fuss or drama.

you did answer the questions well dont get me wrong, however some times we all need to give that bit more of a spark. Like I suppose on a Derby day Man City vs Man Utd () The players give that bit more...... and in essence this is your derby its the end of the competition so your passion, strength and spark need to shine through.....

Something to think about.................

I'd like to hear Carlisle's reponse to Elaine...

I completely agree regarding the fine line and I even mentioned that myself many times.

To succeed you need confidence. Without confidence, you're more or less going to be hopeless. Throughout this process, I have grown more confident in my own ability, however that is far from saying I have grown complacent or even cocky.

In hindsight, there are so many things I could've done even better and if I had a chance to go back I totally would, however what is done is done. I hate the thought of being seen as cocky, because I strive as much as I can to avoid that generalization. I am confident, not cocky. I would like to think at least...

The purpose of this is to sell ourselves, I did what was necessary to sell myself in the best light possible and I hope that Peter, Aliyah, Rory & yourself see that and don't think of me as that cocky, silly boy.

Perhaps it didn't seem obvious in my interview with Lainey, but I'd just like to state that I do want to win this game, so badly. I didn't have any expectations of winning at the start of the game, but now I want it intensely, and I'll prove that to you if I'm chosen as one of the finalists.

Ok, thank you, it's been great. Good luck, guys!

All that was said is it came across to me that way, there is a difference with what you take personal and me trying to elicit a response from you to just saying something for the sake of it. What is said is to in essence wake you up and from what I saw it worked bear it in mind............

Agression/ passion at least shows you care, measured is great in different circumstances, this I cannot emphasise enough is a competition and I do feel at times you lose focus of that..... no one is calling into question what you have done I make comments to make you react and whether you realise it or not you have reacted and I think this is the most spark and passion i have seen from you. Its a good thing in my opinion.........

I agree you are giving it your all now.

Gav, Carlisle, Ana, now can you please sum up one last time why you should be in the final two

I'll then be firing another one of you.

Very honest and non arrogant response

So I gather if you get to the final 2 you will prove yourself even more than you have done to get this far and do your all to win ?

Do you reckon you could win ?

I think I should be in the final two because over the past few weeks I've put in a lot of work, and I feel that I've performed well on every task. I really, really do want this and I'm prepared to put even more work into the competition in order to win, if you take me further in the competition. I really believe in myself in that I have the confidence and ability to win the competition, and I hope you've seen that through my interviews and performances on the tasks.

I think I should be in the final two because I really have given my all. I can't describe how much I want this. Every single task I have given 150%, if not even more, and I would love the oppurtunity to shine just one more time... I think I have done more than enough to deserve a position in the top 2 and I just hope you feel the same way. I bring something that I don't feel the other two do. I am more vocal in my business approach, however that is what he carried me through to this stage and very much makes me stand out in contrast to two quite 'perfect' candidates.

I have given it all, and now the decision is in your hands.

I have given this competition everything and if I do get in to the final 2, I will do the impossible and give it more than everything. I will work my backside off to show everybody that I do very much deserve a place in the final 2.

If I did not think I could win, I can promise you that I would not have been here. I would've pulled out as soon as it looked like my reputation may be tarnished (ie Seth). I want to win and think if I do make it through I have a very strong chance of doing just that... I would like to think, at least.

My dedication & hunger for this speaks volumes.

I am an incredibly smart, capable, and proactive candidate. I can think on my feet and react well under pressure; I have an organised mindset and great leadership skills; but more than that, I have all the spark, creativity, and passion that anybody could ask for. I have high levels of motivation - not only to win, but also to do the best I possibly can at every step of the way - and I have never once shirked responsibility.

Also, the only criticisms that have been leveled at me are that I'm 'too perfect' and 'too robotic' - I'd like to think that I've demonstrated tonight why the former is irrelevant and the latter is untrue. As stated, I want this so badly, and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to show this.
