Every week now she is undermining the candidates and making them look stupid, making them look like kids.
Obviously, if there are bad business practices about to happen or customers aren't being informed of things, then she needs to say something - but TAKE THEM TO ONE SIDE, and tell them. Chastising them in front potential clients kills their credibility as serious business-people, makes them look like teenagers out on work experience. It's just not on! |

But that would be too late if they'd bought the flat because Brett had, perhaps deliberately -- and that is certainly what the ensuing law suit would allege -- shown them the wrong view. For the more minor stuff like how to pronounce Galliard, Karren did wait till they were alone. |

How would that work, though? Remember the camera crew. She'd need to take both candidates and the crew to one side, or more realistically wait until the buyers had left.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Didn't mind Karren too much tonight. I rolled my eyes when she made a big deal about Joseph trying to subtly un-feminise his product in the boardroom as I predicted she would do. Although I did get a hearty laugh when Charleine made her try the team's "energy bar". |

She's a nasty piece of work. I've worked with a few women like her. She verbalises that she champions women in business but the reality is she enjoys belittling the candidates, and seems to find great pleasure when they trip up.
A thoroughly awful woman. |

If you are going to superciliously correct someone at least get it right yourself. If you don't it makes you like a fool as well as an a*sehole. Karen is a pain and her schtick is tedious. |

Her pouting this season has gone into overdrive. She's starting to look like a character from "The Simpsons"

She just gives off the impression that anything the candidates do that she will rip into them anyway. If the candidates ended up saving people from a burning building im sure she'd find faults with them.

Couldn't stand her last night
It was odd actually seeing her praise contestants on the Final 5 show. I had to do a double take to ensure I wasn't seeing things. Joseph and Vana got real particular praise

Karren: Mmm. Well you should know Alan that he also slightly bruised their ribs in the process. Is that not right Johnson?

Sugar: I believe congratulations are in order Johnson. I hear that you saved someone's life by giving them CPR.

She was awful last night, but I liked it when she stood up for Charlene (?). She used to champion the candidates much more - or at least, it was shown more on camera.

I don't like how she keeps butting in on tasks this series. Or perhaps she's always done it but they don't usually show it on camera? Her job is to observe, not direct, AND it's better TV if she leaves them to screw up. Obviously someone would have had to deal with the nut thing if they had given the mum the cake without telling her it might contain nuts, but that's NOT what happened. She needs to stop interfering.
