I personally think that :
Task 8 (Party Planners): David is fired
Task 9 (Property Agents): Gary and Selina/Joseph are fired (double firing)
And I'm starting to think that the producers may be aiming for a Richard v Charleine final to generate some interest in this flagging series.”
It is possible for it to work out that way, however as CGG says below (and I've said this as well) - the 2 clips of Selina/Charleine/Gary/Joseph on a losing team, and Vana/Richard/Brett leaving the BR together, look as though they could be from the same ep (if it is the property agent ep, then it makes sense as there's a clip of Brett on his own and the clothing there matches the 'outside BR' clip; is that definitely the week 9 ep?). I've already said that it's possible that Scott was leaving with Vana/Richard/Brett and is just out of shot, but as Scott hasn't been seen in any more future clips, then chances are he's already gone by that point.

It could be a bit misleading, but I can't see it- Scott has gotten a terrible edit now the last two weeks, and pretty much asked to be fired in the BR last episode. He genuinely lost the plot. Can't see him surviving another BR
I don't really think LS and co make their decision (back in about April/May) for the final 2 based on apparent ratings that won't be known for 6 months. this isn't x factor
The bookies have Vana and Joseph as the clear 1 and 2 it'd be hard to go against them
They've been essentially throwing Joseph at us the last few weeks portraying him as infallable pretty much”
That's right, the interviews would have been filmed before the broadcast began. I actually reckon only one of Richard/Charleine would be in the final 2 (and my money would be Richard vs Joseph).
Also, it depends on when precisely the clip of Joseph/Charleine/Selina/Gary comes in (this is the same ep where Charleine cries outside of the BR btw, same jewellery and jacket) - if it's ep 9, then all we know is that Vana/Richard/Brett and Charleine survive to week 10, with Scott having to be on Vana's team and thus surviving (Joseph as PM brings Selina and Gary back into the BR, there are other clips showing this). If it's ep 10, then those 4 are 4 of the final 5 (Scott would be gone in week 9 in this scenario, as could only be single firings for weeks 8 and 9) with one of Joseph/Selina/Gary joining them for the interviews.
Basically there's another double firing at some point: it's either week 9 or week 10 (as David and Scott are on separate teams for task 8 iirc). Personally I would say that the 2 clips are from week 10, in which case Scott must be fired in week 9 and for 2 of Selina/Joseph/Gary to be fired in week 10. There is a chance that the 2 clips are from different eps, although I'd say it works out too well for them to be the same ep.
