Must say that Grainne is definitely striking me as another Leah

Trish for me.

Granary will be off soon. She may have an awesome business plan but this week's performance was poor.

But she was good the previous week and Alan Sugar even said he saw potential in her. Think Grainne could be like Vana last year, who had one bad week when she was PM in the early stages but picked herself up throughout the rest of the series. Will be surprised if Grainne doesn't make the final five.

My current Final Five prediction is:
Trishna
Frances
Courtney
Grainne
Paul

I personally think that Grainne has a serious chance. Yes, she made some errors yesterday and particularly gave Kartick an unreasonably hard time of it in the boardroom, but I think other than that major mis-step (which did make sense given his clearly built up reputation from Task 2) and some other minor mis-steps, she comes across as a very level headed and calm person, and she actually very much impressed me as a PM compared to the other PMs we've had this year thus far.

Not to mention Lord Sugar said it himself that he sees potential in her.

I think the final 2 will be Courtney and Grainne with Grainne going on to take the win.

I'm still sticking with Grainne, I think she did quite well as PM despite the result, and nearly all of the recent Apprentice winners had bad weeks as PM.

She seems like a very hard-worker, and is articulate and good at controlling her emotions,

The only doubt I have had about her though was her indecision about who to bring back in the boardroom - that surprised me

yep same here. i'm only worried about her business plan. it'll likely be something related to make-up and/or fashion, and i'm just not sure that LS will invest in something like that...

I think Grainne will do well and get to the final 5; I don't think a man will win this year. I think Sofianne still stands a good chance at getting through to the final even though his project leadership in last task wasn't the best. In my mind, the no hopes are JD, Samuel and Rebecca as they haven't shown themselves to really contribute anything.

I suppose if he actually did anything he might.

Mind he is a top poser - so every chance.

She is not even in the same league as Vana imo.

All the negative edits on Sofiane worry me. Grianne is more likely to win now (judging from edit) and II think the final 5 will be Sofiane (still), Grianne, Jessica (She is getting together and she will go far), Alana or Frances (I have a weird feeling Alana will go far despite her WEAK performance..same with Frances) and Trish.

Grainne and Karthik in final. Grainne to win.

Alana, Courtney and Dillon to get to interview stage.

Frances is getting a good winners edit, for someone who has lost every task, she has never been in the boardroom yet, she is shown to be doing her tasks given to her. She has made 1 or 2 blunders but the edit does not go over board with it like every other person there. I think her being PM will truly show if she has the leadership role to her. Plus she had opening intro of her saying she will be under-estimated. She seems the best so far regarding the girls, and heck even the guys.

I fear it could be Grainne as I have a suspicion Lord Sugar has a soft spot for her.

I think it will be between Trishna and Courtney.

I think Sofiane might be the candidate pulled up for BS in the interviews, and Dillon the nice guy that has an unrealistic forecast of what his business is worth.

Grainne is showing herself to be competent and with enough fire to put up a fight.

Trishna is also proving herself to be quietly competent but doesn't actually seem to speak out when it matters most?

Courtney is quietly competent but again, he hasn't done anything to really give a strong impression either way tbh.

Karthick, despite his role as the comic relief, is actually doing some things quite well, much to the clear surprise of LS and Claude. Could end up a dark horse.

Frances, much like Courtney, quietly competent, but I don't see what's amazing about her that other people seem to be seeing, she hasn't done anything amazing as of yet.

Alana, having a very interesting edit, clearly having a bit of a redemption arc and yet the candidates are consistently underrating her. Could turn out to be a serious contender?

I think the others are dead (wo)men walking tbh.
