Her tendency to tell Alan what she thinks he wants to hear (from listening to his comments) is the only major criticism I'd level at her... and its not as if she's the only one who has been guilty of that. Personally I've been very impressed with her although I think Harry H and Lizzie would have been the most deserving finalists.”

Agree that. She's not only able to read him but she now usually knows when not to speak and look too pushy . Monday she didn't jump in first to say why she should stay or suggest who should go. She's pretty consistently picked the right people to go herself too - Haya this week was a better argument than James.. She's also good at explaining and spotting arguiments coming her way. This week she saw she might have done one weaker presentation, and then spotted the argument about the taste was also coming her way - and she got Nick to kill one threat and killed the other argument herself with perfect logic. Kate could do a lot of that, Liz was less good at spotting a problem coming her way, but Zara's good at it all . She's stirred up some of Lord Sugars' issues with well spoken smart females, but because she's so much younger he seems not to be as frightened that he's got another Michelle situation or another Katie on his hands - which helped kill Kate and Liz's chances.

Think that Kate and Liz are better pitchers (imho).

In fact, I would say that I even liked Lizzie´s pitching style better (because it used humour).

I thought Lizzie was a surprisingly good pitcher too. Seemed to be able to connect with her audience very well.

Its a shame she has an aura of being superior and way above everyone else. She`s confident she will win.

I wanted Harry Hitchens to win. I`m sure LS wanted him to as well, but he`s now left with the pushy plum and James.”

I would work with her, she is professional and intelligent.

I can't believe my two least favourite candidates are in the final! Zara should have been fired weeks ago, she talks herself up to cover up her mistakes and James is sneaky and manipulative, shoving blame onto everyone else. What is Lord Sugar thinking?!

I expect he was thinking he didn't want Haya

It certainly seems that way.

Good for her. This is business, not a "nice person" contest.

That said, James is kind of a sneaky backstabbing worm. I wouldn't count him out. We've seen in the past he's constantly planting seeds to help people fail, and mentally recording things to try and use in the boardroom, from the first moment of any task. Zara, in contrast, is relatively straightforward. She will try and steamroll and have her way, and has several big screwups under her belt where it comes to personal taste or making a decision about costing or things like that, but she also could as they say, sell ice cubes to an Eskimo.

She totally deserved to win. The guy didn't even have any specific plans for the money. Why does he need £25,000 to study economics?

Her smug strut to the car was truly brilliant.

James shot himself in the foot by not having an idea what to do with the £25k. Why not just get a student loan like everyone else?

I wouldn't buy shit off anybody. That at least I can provide myself.
