They've 'exposed the artifice' - the tasks don't matter AT ALL. The whole thing is just 'entertainment', and thus can be seen as obviously fixed to get the 'right' businessplan through.

It doesn't matter how 'well' they do.

It leaves a nasty taste. Trying to gull us, certainly gulling the poor sods who go on the show.

Not sure they are gulled. Most of them just want to get known and become 'motivational' speakers.

Or get on Celeb BB.

He always wanted a restaurant!

Mark did look pale, and could have had a cold virus. He sweating over a task makes no sense, as he's never done that before.

I hope Claude nails him to the mast, as someone should.

Sod 'em then.

If it wasn't pre-recorded I'd say Ed Byrne was reading the board with the "stallion became a little hoarse" gag!

Solomon is a lightweight,he should have gone weeks ago.

He also protected Daniel for the interviews.

He now has two incredible candidates - Mark and Daniel. Roisin who also wants to get into food, and looks like Leah rerun. There's then Solomon, who has been invisible, .and Bianca. The last two may have something lucrative but pointless, and actually win.

Sanjay's pulled!

Daniel will get destroyed at the interview.

lol, Sanjay should get some laughs from those pressies.

It's a 'route to Z list celebrity' for many of them.

To be fair, Katie has a lot of publicity going on from it - see her twitter.. And the losers don't have to work for Lord Sugar.

its always been thus - some of the top contenders ever were just picked up by more successful people. Luisa just went out and got her money elsewhere on the publicity.

Sanjay's a nice guy.

I definitely understand why he was fired though.

Katie looks nice

I suppose so. It has no substance though. It did use to, but it doesn't matter.

Kay eee's had a makeover. Still looks like a sparrow though.

Costs don't matter in most of your tasks - you silly Lord.

so sugar wouldnt know how to run mcdonalds, really? stupid thing for him to say

That's very positive from Katie, and possibly only Candidate who has learned something.

does she prove that they dont pick candidates for their business plan but more for their personality.

Like herding cats

If I got it right, being slightly linked to the food industry, a saffron package would be like 25 to 30 pounds in costs (I know it's 36 euros anyway).

I'm not sure Gabby is what Sanjay is looing for.

I don't know why people are claiming Daniel was useless this week. Nick stated that the client's were impressed with him.
