I thought Adam was almost sure to be fired. I suspected Lord Sugar's whole plan in making him and Jenna PMs was to ensure he'd be able to get shot of one of them.
Katie did screw up, no doubt about that. But she's been pretty good in some tasks, whereas Adam has been a complete knob on every task. Adam and Jenna were being put to the test, clearly. But the fact that Katie was mainly fired on the basis of the task puts to bed some of the criticism about the show no longer being about the tasks. Overall I think Stephen was the worst in the team, but Adam must have realised Stephen would make mincemeat of him if he'd brought him back. Therefore he wasn't in the firing line. In the last two weeks promising candidates have been fired purely on the basis of that weeks performance. |

On this task she also made numerous mistakes. She got the location wrong. She got the price wrong. She thought dressing up as a pizza was the way to sell premium meatballs. (I wouldn't sell pizza like that, never mind meatballs, never mind premium meatballs. Did that costume say "premium" to you?) She was part of the bus fiasco. I'm surprised that anyone can be surprised that she was fired. |

I can't believe he kept him, he purposefully went against everything the task was about.
Katies logic was right, with so many people around the football ground, did they really lose out than if they'd been at Grassmarket earlier? I don't think they did. The fact he chose crap and went against the Gournet side of things is why they lost afaic |

As they only lost by £20, it wouldn't have taken too many extra sales to win the task. They would have been better off either staying at the stadium (and catching people as they left the ground) or spending the whole day at Grassmarket and getting more trade from tourists. |

What's wrong with Pasta and Meat balls?
How can you make a cheap dish expensive? It's pretty obvious that this task was to make the most profit, if it was about creating the best organic food, they would be trying to sell it to Supermarkets not out of a van.
