Gary looks like PM for next week based on YF preview?

I can't see Sam surviving another BR, but who knows!

A double firing would make sense, with Selina switching with Richard & David in week 8 (meaning that team Brett would lose again in week 8).

The next three to go are Sam, Scott and David correct?

Unless we are being trick with the previews and the clip of Richard, Vana and Brett is from the task after Gary/Charline/Selina/Joseph boardroom and the 4th person on their team from the week before is moved over to the remainder of them 4. If you get what I mean

I get you!

That would be hilarious in a way

I think its more of me clutching to straws that David makes it to the final 2

I honestly wouldn't have ruled that out until tonight, but he certainly didn't get the best edit pity as he's one of my favourites!

5 in each team now, who do we think is switching next week?

^^^ From preview, looks like Gary moves over to Versatile. I'd imagine he becomes PM

yeah, i think this will happen.

I was shocked when I saw Scott and David not appearing in future previews but both got a very bad edit tonight.

I guess they could save the double for week 8 but I can't see Scott surviving as a losing PM again, and Sam looks completely out of his depth

I wonder who else comes back to BR? You'd have thought Selina would be gone with another BR visit, and it would be Brett's third time if he's there. I get the impression LS sees something in Brett though, so it could be him and he stays

Could be, but that would almost mean that clip with the three of them is from week 10

Also keep in mind that Richard changes teams in week 8 (the party planner episode).

Plus the fact that we now have (almost) confirmation that the warehouse clips are from next week (as the preview clip also has those three working together as a subteam).

I think we can count Joseph as our main top 5 banker?

Vana too looks to be coming along nicely.

We'll know more about Gary after next week- finally!

One of Richard and Brett at least will get through if that is the true final 7 and Vana is to make it to interviews- Charleine, Selina, Gary, and Joseph lose the task and one of those has to go to cut it down to 6 (probably Selina or Gary)

If we're to believe the bookies though the top 2 are pretty much assured

That said they had Scott very short in the betting until this week

Yes, certainly with the edit he got tonight (they even had new intro shot of him from a previous episode).



Agreed, to me it seems like both Selina and Gary can be dropped before the interviews round. But if the other team loses in week 10, then whoever of them survived will be in.

As for Gary, he is definitely the PM as the RT review has his quote (from the preview) being attributed to the PM.

Should be a double already next week. Which would leave one team with only 3 members, which is why (at least) Richard moves the next week. Question remains if that is the only move (in week 8). If so, then Selina moves over in week 9, which makes sense taking into account Joseph's statement (who hasn't really worked with her before, except for week 1 perhaps?).

And what you say about Scott, also applies to Vana, who could be the only PM without a win when we get to the final 7. If that happens, she is likely PM in week 10 and will become make or break for her.



Mind you, if it's indeed a double then he has no other options left (another triple is not on the table).

From the previews, my guess would be Brett (that old intro clip between Brett and Scott is also from this ep). Selina would be more hilarious though, doesn't happen often that a PM brings back the same person in the final boardroom (let alone, that a PM loses twice).

Considering Richard is on Connexus by Week 8, a double firing next week seems likely with Scott and Sam likely going. When does Selina go back to Versatile as that is quite important (She switches teams with Brett soon, but maybe that happens in Task 9?) If Selina and Brett do swap teams in Task 9, then David will likely go in Task 8.

Evidently I was extremely tired when I wrote the above as Brett of course doesn't switch teams. My guess is a single firing next week then with Richard and Selina swapping teams in Week 8.
Did we establish whether the Warehouse clip was from next week? Cos that's kinda important. Richard, Gary and Charleine are all on the same team next week there's a good chance that the Warehouse clip is from then.

It looks as though it is - Charleine was wearing the same clothes as the clip of her running from the next time credits, and a warehouse clip was shown, although I think it might have been for the other team.





One question for you guys - there's a clip in the intros of Scott, Selina and Sam setting up what looks like a trestle table. Have we already seen this or is it to come and if so, where would it fit in (I presume it would be this week, any ideas how it would fit in?)?

Yes. it's from this coming week's task.

Unless we are wrong about the final 7, that is not possible (as that would leave two fired candidates, by week 9, on different teams for week 8).

Switching Richard and Scott/Sam would work (for a double firing in week 8). Mind you the RT article for week 8 makes it seem pretty obvious as to which team loses.

Will be interesting to learn who the PM's are for that task. My guess would be two out of David, Richard, Vana and Selina (so, likely one going 2-0 and the other going 1-1).



Yes, it is from next week (you can see that subteam also in the new preview clip).

Sherlock, can you recall if the pre-episode previews (shown on BBC in the week before the next episode airs) include clips solely from the upcoming episode, or has this changed to include clips from other future episodes?

Thanks.

You mean like the clip which was shown on Saturday night?

That contained mainly footage for next week, but there were definitely also clips from further down the line. Mainly stuff from the intro, but I also spotted a clip of Vana resting on the couch of what looked like The Apprentice house (she also said something, "suffering from.............??").

Will need to see that preview again, so will be on the look out for it tonight and the upcoming days.

Thanks, it's just that the few pre-episode previews that I could recall from previous series tended to focus on clips from the upcoming episode only. Some of the clips included last night could turn out to be a real curve ball if they were from the upcoming episode, but that looks less likely now.

I think Vana was saying she was suffering from PTSD (from the triple firing).

Based on the RT review for week 8, it seems like Selina switches teams to become the PM for the other team. Does this mean that Selina might win twice as PM

Think that one of the boys will be the PM on the other team. As their party plan involves an assault course, it's same to assume this is a birthday party for a boy (so any reference to the birthday girl, is from the other team).

Here is the mentioned RT review:

Selina's in the events industry so I'd think she'd be expected to win.
