I can't think of a final set of candidates that have been so uninspiring.

I thought Series 4 coudn't be beat, be that series had Lucinda as a good point.

Adam: A idiot...a funny idiot but still a idiot
Jade: Just seems a bit belligerant and dull
Tom: Most overated contestant ever
Nick: Good, but the most boring candidate this series
Ricky: Talks the talk, but can't walk the walk at all.

Will be dull end to a dull series

It's not even that I dislike them. Nick seems very nice as a person.

There just all really bad television. They're not great to watch.

I rather one of them was a villain or something, just so I could have feelings for one of them, even if they were feelings of hate.

I can't help but think it's since he got chummy with Adam that he's lost his way a bit. Maybe they bring out the worst in each other. A shame as up till two weeks ago I thought he was the best candidate this series.

It's not the strongest set of candidates but this is probably the first series I like all of the final five!

My favorite contestants were Jenna, Gabrielle and Nick Jenna went last week and Gabby just now!

For the love of god, I hope Nick wins this thing!

I seriously don't know how Adam has made it this far, I would look forward to him being brutally torn apart at interviews but they went so easy on them last year so I'm not expecting much. Hopefully he's fired next week.

Nick's the only one I like, I'm not sure he deserves to win but neither do any of the others.

For me this has been the worst final five. I don't like any of them and I find them dull to watch.

To be fair Jade and Nick had the best meetings (one of whom was recommended by Tom) while Adam and Tom were left to fend for themselves

I would accept that it was not a great performance by Tom in the negotation and for the first time he looked unsure of himself and did not strilke a great deal.

I am hoping this is a temporary blip and he can return to form next week. I still see him as having the best potential

Other than Jade this is the final five that I've been wanting for a while.

Tom is the best candidate left....Nick is not far behind though. If Adam, Ricky or Jade get the investment, it won't be because of their performance throughout the series because all three of them have been dire.

Yes but he also made a stupid decision to turn down the hotel, and in general hasn't been as strong as other candidates in the process, particularly as project manager.

It wasn't a stupid decision in the light of the chosen strategy: to try and sell as many deals as possible.

Only after Jade's exclusive spa deal turned out to be the winner, did it become clear Ricky made a mistake.

They are really dire. No likeable features for the most part. Very few memorable moments either. A thimble full of competency between them all.

Steven was the one stressing that Ricky may be able to secure 'loads of deals' from the hotel, so I think it was a mistake, especially given the stature of the brand.

Coincidentally its been the worst series ever. No real characters, no memorable moments and no interesting tasks. Just dire.

Stephen never mentioned the exclusivity of the deals as a deciding factor, just quantity. And Ricky was right in assuming that losing 3 hours in traffic without the guarantee of closing a deal was too risky and he could close at least as many deals without traveling that far.

I thought at the time that Stephen made the right decision in calling Ricky back and tell him to leave the hotel.

Ricky's OK. He has character and although he does talk a lot he has delivered quite a bit as well. (Plus he stuck up for Gabby )

So I guess I'll be supporting him. Dull final 5 though I agree.
