It could have been percieved as banter if he hadn't finished off with "I am being serious", and then explained why Harry M was the weakest... I think he is just threated by Harry M and knows he must have something if SugarBalls keeps saving him.

I bet Harry M is as annoying in the house as he is on tasks, so I don't blame them one bit for telling him how it is and hopefully deflating his ego.

I agree, like when he tried to bulls**t back at the house, at the end of the Week 5 boardroom and James accurately called him on it, saying "Don't lie, he nearly fired you".

I totally agree

But was he bulls**tting though?
All we saw him say was that Sugar was going to base his decision on that particular task, therefore he must have meant not on previous ones and his rather poor record.
Sounded pretty accurate to me.

And James wasn't exactly in the clear himself. Sugar's had it in for him ever since he showed a lack of understanding of economics, which is one of his key subjects.

Fair point!

Hmmm - not sure that Lord Sid really understands what an economics course at the level James would have taken actually consists of.

H could have bit his toungue or pulled M aside to say it

to say it infront of everyone with a big smirk on his face and then have everyone laughing was done with the intent to embarass

your deluded if you think otherwise

This was of course in the middle of Harry M putting on a silly voice to take the piss out of Hayley to everyone else behind her back. Such a noble victim.

He doesn't hide what he is

Harry H is a snide.

Harry M thinks he is a lot better than he is.

Harry H said it in front of everyone, that's not snide.

Methinks you have it backwards!
