How was he not fired? They lost the task based on him messing up the presentation and the brand was hated.

Exactly what I thought. It was perfect that it happened right after he referred to himself as "the prize Stallion". Shame he still survived.

Having said that, Mark had been a much stronger candidate than Sanjay throughout the series, and arguably as strong as Katie. |

Whilst it was a terrible pitch, I wouldn't wish that for anyone.

I was quite glad Mark got taken down a peg or too, but felt quite sorry for him as well. He looked pretty ill by the end of the episode

Katie let the stallion out of the stable but then found out it was a donkey.

He has to stay in if only to watch him squirm in the interviews. We'll see how much is true or how much he's actually made up. This is when they really get found out.

Mark has spent the last 10 weeks undermining the tasks, because he was so busy concentrating on who to shaft so he could pin the blame on them in the boardroom.
Now I realise after seeing him sweat and panic, that he was so anxious about being taken back in the boardroom that he would rather have picked off and blamed other candidates than risk putting his ideas and skills forward in attempting to actually win the tasks, in case he failed and got criticised. I think Mark is a bitch and has a pathological fear of failure. |

Cant believe that actually happened to the stallion in the pitch - first real crisis in the process for him Was kind of fun seeing him sweat/squirm so hard in the boardroom

It was the sheer thought of being fired before Daniel. That's all it was
Lucky git he was |

It looked like play acting to me.
He'd obviously worked out after the first pitch that they had a terrible product and had a good chance of being the losing team this week. Since he wouldn't be able to weasel his way out of being in the final boardroom, his best chance would be to stitch up Katie and Sanjay in one go, then play for sympathy. And it worked! |

I don't think it was manipulated. We've all been there with a frog in the throat at the most inopportune of times. The stressful situation just makes it feel 10 times worse. Really, Sanj or Katie should have stepped in sooner rather than let him soldier on and dig their grave.
As for not getting fired, thats mainly because Sugar finds his BP credible and he otherwise seems to like the guy. |

What sums Mark up for me is all through last nights programme, all his to camera pieces and all his one to ones with Katie were basically slagging everyone else off but himself. And what really annoyed me is virtually the first thing out of him mouth when back in the house, was having ago at Daniel, will the guy ever learn. 2 members of that team are back stabbing little shits, and thank the gods one of them went last night.

It was incredibly satisfying watching him choke on that huge slice of humble pie.
Though I actually felt a little bit sorry for him and thought that it would have been unfair to fire him for it. I even considered that it might be an attempt at a bit of redemption for all the arrogance he has shown. Show him gaining a bit of humility so that the audience feels sorry for him and starts to root for him, all just in time for his win. But then he kept going back to his stubbornly arrogant ways again and I was like "Err maybe not". I think there is such a thing as trying to be too clever for your own good when it comes to reading the edit. Katie was my winner pick, so that kind of speaks for itself really. |

I wonder was he actually ill? The sweating and paleness in the Boardroom seemed like more than just nerves.
That said, it was a very satisfying moment of karma and I wasn't exactly sorry to see him mess up the presentation. I just wish we could have seen Daniel's reaction when he admitted what happened to LS. |

He might have been a little ill but I'm not sure he was. When it was he, Daniel and Lauren in the boardroom a few weeks ago, I thought he seemed a little on edge there as well so it didn't really surprise me that he did seem nervous in last night's episode when it looked a bit sticky for him, though I wasn't quite expecting the pitch debacle.

Hope you've learnt yours, son. |
