I don't know any spoilers, but I find it unlikely he will win given the edit that he has had so far...

Unless Sugar really likes his business plan.

But I am interested why Sugar put him on another team for week 10's task. I suspect it's either to save him or make him the scapegoat...we shall see.

But I am a fan of Daniel and I want him to get to the interviews...if only for the entertainment value.

but I am still firm on Solomon to win!

Hi, I didn't know there were other Daniel fans on this forum!

I don't think he stands any chance of winning whatsoever from his edit, but I hope he gets the chance to shine a few more times and gets a "with regret" firing.

I would love for him to outlast Mark, doubt he will though

I don't deny that he has been treated badly, but that is not a reason for him to win. Not that I have a problem with an underdog winning, but they have to be a good underdog. You can't just award them the prize to stick up two fingers to everyone else.

I absolutely ADORE Daniel. Apart from his steaming good looks, he has a very appealing vulnerability about him that I cannot resist. He doesn't take himself too seriously like most of the other's do and he seems to have a lovely personality and good sense of humour. Also he doesn't seem to slag off the other candidates half as much as some of the others.

I think he's brilliant (and beautiful!)

I would find it hilarious if Daniel won, I must admit.

There is no way it will happen though. Sure, it's more a reality tv show than a real business competition but even Big Al has his limits surely?

He won't win, but to be fair, he had a good round this week. I don't see him passing the interview stage at all.

I like Daniel, he was a brilliant pm, the best so far.

I don't think he will win and if he doesn't then I hope Solomon does, he's a gentleman.

Any other year he wouldn't have a chance, but this is a pretty poor bunch.

If his business plan is any good, why not?

His business plan must be marked by Lord Sugar from the start, he has been saved on several occasions, although I agree that people have been unfair to him.

If business plan is good, you can make it to the interviews, regardless your performance on tasks.

I think he's either being lined up to be taken apart by Claude, or he has a very interesting business proposition for Alan Sugar.
Hopefully it's the latter.

More likely to be torn apart in the interviews.

I think he'll make the final, he's improved over the last few weeks and seems to be taking everything LS tells him on board. His downfall my be the interviews and his "bullshit". I said in another post if he makes the final, how many people will want to be on his team.

I don't think he'll win but it's not a completely ridiculous idea. Daniel is one of the few people on the show who seems to have learnt something. LS does like a journey so you never know.

..."worst candidate on the show" to "slightly improved worst candidate on the show". Impressive.

But he's not the worst, Felipe was worse, he couldn't sell, and when he needed to fight his corner on a technical point on a contract, something which as a corporate lawyer should be "bread and butter" he failed. James was a naughty un-trained puppy, etc, there's been far worse.

Only thing Danno has going for himself is that he's a fellow Hebrew like Lord Al ...and probably the main reason why he hasnt been chucked out earlier...plus he has a bit of scally charm about him .

I agree with a previous poster , Solly will probably nab it .

I don't think he'll win but I've always preferred him to Mark as a person. Not necessarily been the best candidate but has learnt from his mistakes and continued to improve. He's a little raw and naive at times compared to some candidates but I like that about him. Glad he's at least made it into the top five.

He's growing on me, he's got a bit of a bull in a china shop approach about him but he's improved dramatically in the last couple of weeks.

I think some of the other candidates see him as a bit of an easy target.

Sir Al seems to like him and it was nice to see Nick speak up for him last night.

Sanjay was probably the worst overall contestant this series (who we actually saw over time). In fairness to him, though, he seemed like the type who wasn't really suited to this type of process, and may well do well outside of it.
