I know, I just don't think it's fair to single people out personally on these forums.

No its not, but I give as good as I get so its par for the course

The point is, Leah DID say something along the lines that she has contributed more than anyone else - and the opposite is true.

She deffo said something along the lines of she's been consistently the best and most reliable every week, or something very similar.

Whatever it was, it's not true, she's been annoying negative background music every week

To me Leah's rant came across as incredibly patronising - who the heck does she think she is?

Myles - 'Take the advice, and be quiet'

I don't know if its editing but it is possible to seem very cold on Apprentice when in reality you're not.”

I can never reconcile her persona on The Apprentice (where she was cold and arrogant) with her witty laid back personality as a TV presenter.

I thought Dr. Leah was a strong candidate at first, but maybe that was becouse she was on the, frankly, dreadful, girls team?
She was poor in Dubai and the team building but was pretty good last night - Myles and Alex were more culpable than her anyway.
Not sure she's really got finalist potential - but a medical type business plan could be a real money spinner so who knows...

I did watch it again. The only similar thing she said was that she had outperformed Myles on every task and, let's be honest, she has.

She also said that she is the most reliable, consistent person in this process (quote). It was in a trailer for the show, so I always knew she'd say that at some point.

And she hasn't really been inconsistent and, given her profession, I'd say she's pretty damn reliable. I'm not denying she was talking herself up more than perhaps she deserved to be, I simply object to someone making up a quote that makes her look worse and then using it against her.

And I object to you acting as if the 'quote' I provided was completely without basis.

She could still make it happen.”

I agree she is certainly someone that is standing out now and has grown in confidence and appearance it seems each episode, she doesn't scream and shout but can get her point across very well when in the boardroom so shows she can stick up for herself.

Looks wise she is on par with Liz Locke

Her contributions to tasks are still fairly limited.

A lot of people saying they would look forward to luisa in the interviews but I think Leah would also be a good view in them with her surly attitute”

IMO She contributes effectively without screeching and trying to trip her colleagues up along the way.

She is intelligent and capable with a serious but fair approach to the process.

It quite clear that's how she is, I can only think people who lack her intelligence and integrity fail to recognise the positive traits.

That's not true, she has done quite well with customers.
She didn't do well last night because she was being undermined and interrupted by Myles, who is a big fake and indeed a proven failure.

"Along those lines" is not good enough. You said she said something specific, that's not true.

You have amended what she said to fit the opinion you have.

I really like Leah and thought she showed Lord Sugar she was right. Loved it when she said "You can't say" to Lord Sugar! Hah!

Also when she said "Oh PLEASE myles" (or something to that extent) i really like her.”

Agree

Quote:
“I think its between Luisa, Leah and Neil for the win.”

Jordan is my tip for the win. I loath Neil and Luisa and I have no respect for Myles.

Patsy's answer below explains IMO

Yeah I think you're probably right with the Jordan prediction, he seems to be a good allrounder.

I don't mind Neil to be honest, but hope Leah wins I do however predict the final 2 will be Jordan and Neil.

Flipping witch hunt around here.

I say along those lines is good enough. I say that from what she did say, you can glean that she thinks she has done more than anyone else, because she said something like that.

She spoke at 1000 words a second, so I couldn't remember it verbatim, but that IS the gist of what she said.

I agree, maybe it wasn't word for word what she said but no one's on trial here! She did say something similar to that because my family burst out laughing at the time.

I find these posts complaining about 'witch hunts' while indeed on witch hunts against certain candidates hilariously un-self-aware.

In the past I thought contestants got criticized for putting the others down instead of talking themselves up.
I didn't like her that much in the boardroom, it wouldn't have impressed me much.
