We have some people calling here 'Jazelle' and Sugar and others calling her 'Gazelle'?

What's her name?

And does anyone else think Rory constantly looks like he's about to cry?

Her presentation was awesome. She managed to fit 'outside the box thinking' and 'solution' into one sentence and then froze up! All style and no substance.

I know her team won but it was almost despite her best efforts. She needs to step up her game!

To be fair although she was awful in the presentation, she was the one who looked around Pets at Home and said they were heading in the wrong direction and that this was the retailer they needed to be aiming for rather than the other two single shops. This was the main reason that Stealth won the challenge.

I know how her name is actually pronouned as it's an Urdu name meaning love poem. One of my friends told me that and now I'm telling everyone as if it's a great thing to know!

Yes, I did think Rory looked as though he was constantly about to cry...

Thing about him is... some people grow up in environments where they're told they'll never amount to anything and have to overcome that to get anywhere.

With Rory, the reverse is true...he'll have been told he's creme de la creme and all that, but doesn't actually have the ability to make things happen in the real world. Hence the bankrupcy and subsequent expression of confusion and tearfulness.

He should just forget this whole entrepreneur, kingoftheworld thing and get himself a nice quiet office job and potter his way through to retirement. He'd be a lot happier.

He looked like he was going to cry whenever Tre got near him.

Did anybody see Rorys David Brent impression when Tre was falling asleep in the car?

Unbelievable.

I did think why did none of the girls jump in as soon as she started to freeze? they were all stood there, and if you are in a team presentation someone should have seemlessly taken over rather than leave such a long pause. At least on the 'you're fired' show they showed a little bit more where she passes it on to someone else to carry on speaking. and it still sold 2000 units...imagine how many they might have sold with a better presentation!!

Clever you it is.....

My favourite Ghazal is Aaj jaane ki zid na karo sung by Farida Khanum...not that any of you would have heard that

Ghazal is so easy to say yet they cant say it.....Its like not being able to say Shilpa

If her name was Gazalah/ghazalah (an arabic name)they would have at least got the meaning right...as that means gazelle
