I thought Vana would have been one of the first to go, really surprised she's still there.
By week three I was especially concerned - she was so hypocritical in France, but I think the editing made her appear to be somewhat poor. Laughing in the boardroom, the way she looked at Jenny when she was fired, etc. She's grown on me though. |

So did I. I didn't think foreign contestants (no racism intended) did very well on the show. Felipe, Nurun, Steven and Pamela were foreign last year, and only one of them made it past the halfway point.

She was praised for 'expectation-management' but the way I saw it she seemed to come back on an already negotiated deal?
Vana does do good things. Her problem is she does really silly htings too. I suspect she may hang around a long time - particularly if Charleine or Selina implde at the wrong time and get fired for it. |

I agree - she was massively overpraised for not very much. Scott found the job, negotiated the price, and did a lot of the work, but Vana gets *all* the on-show credit because she put on a nice smile when telling the lady they weren't going to give her the full Garden Force treatment in one day? Silly.
This week she was better, From actively wanting her out, I'm now thinking she's a very credible candidate |

After tonight, Vana is officially the best candidate left in the process. If she doesn't win or even make it to the finale, I'll be genuinely shocked.

2/4 are not foreign. Pamela had a northern accent and Nurun was from Peterborough? as pointed out by another poster.
On topic, Vana is still the best candidate, alongside Joseph and Richard. She is the only really likable one out of them for me - she's my winner at this point. |

Vana still hasn't shown me anything special. All she did this week was follow Richard's instructions.

Why would you say that, she lost her task as PM, and was useless as PM. She's done nothing since, ok she "managed expectations" on the DIY task, would of been better had she "managed expectations" before the team spoke to the client.

^^ didn't say she did it well, just that she did get some praise from LAS for what could of been a massive failure.

She didn't really manage expectations that well. She also thought market research for a 2 day DIY task was a good idea
