My overall take:

Gbemi (fashion designer) - out of depth, easily bored and rather inflexible
Harry H (Brighton Boy) - a likeable all-rounder who does what he's told, but not a leader nor an enterpriser.
Harry Marmite - a pompous snob and a poor team player, but rather good at pitching
Haya (Grandma's Girl) - reliable as a team member, but doesn't speak up when she disagrees. Can be inflexible and not adventurous
Hayley (Head Girl) - sensible but too conservative, figuratively and literally
James (Irish lad) - talks bollocks but has an uncanny knack of proving himself right
Lizzie (Henna Girl) - not sure what to make of her
Zara (Take No Accountability Girl) - inflexible and while wonderfully professional to customers, rude to team members. Poor instinct on pricing. She's better off working in film marketing.

I think Lizzie, Zara, Harry Marmite and James have a good chance of winning.

Harry 'Marmite' - very good

Lizzie's edit reminds me so much of Helen's on the real Apprentice. She's the only person to win the first four tasks, but she's barely featured even when she was PM. Harry H is still my favourite, followed by Zara (Who admittedly wasn't very good this week) and James.

That seems a bit harsh on Lizzie, at least she has spoken in those 4 tasks (and she came up with the winning concept in week 2).

Most of what we have seen of Lizzie has been good. I could have done without her laughing along with Gbemi at Zara in the baby task, but she made the right decision on price in the flower task and she sold very well this week. I think she could well be one to watch.

I really like James - he seems like an old man but he's pretty switched on - I'd employ him. Think he'll be very successful.
