Looks like it's a fella...

No doubt about it...
It will be:

I agree, but there's no need for spoilers if the word "spoiler" is in the thread title.

He was talking about Sugar in the second bit wasn't he? The rewards of working with him etc. When he was discussing the winner he was very careful to say "the person". Nothing's been revealed yet!

I thought that both of the final two both worked for the company until the actual broadcast of the final, that way he can change his opinion whilst they are working for him.

I'm sure that's what I heard happened last year anyway.

when did he say it wasva bloke

He didn't.

I think it's easy to mishear what Tim says - "he's a strong individual" vs "is a strong individual". I think he says the latter.

I agree Apricot.

Katie could certainly be described as a "strong individual" amongst other things! *holds head in hands at thought of Katie winning*
But like others I thought it was only the week before broadcast that SAS made his mind up, having both finalists on probationary contracts until then.

There's no way SAS is going to pick another bottle blonde after the criticism he took last time.

Its either Tre or Simon, the latter I reckon.

We all know who it is, it's been ovious for weeks! A high iq, a daddy with entrepreneurial prowess and more importantly 50 mn smackers to invest and, forgetting the degree, a similar background to SAS....not quite nepotism but definitely a case of jobs for the boys, it would seem.

"a strong individual"? Well , in the show's terms that isn't Lohit as he's probably the least strongest out of the ones left. Numerous sources have said that Katie doesn't win and she's now back to her old job. Simon hasn't been strong throughout the competition at all. He was amateur at selling,buying and negotiating. So he doesn't strike me as "strong". That leaves Tre and Kristina.

With Simon making one of the most spectacular disasters of a task and being as hopeless as he possibly could be, I guess that he could have only survived because Sir Alan had already decided that he was going to hire him anyway.

Simon has it in the bag. :sleep:

As long as it isnt Katie - thats the main thing! I cant believe that she made it into the final!

Time for horse-face to move on to new pastures.

We will realise the winner tonight. Last year at the interview stages it was obvious that Michelle was gonna win and the same with Tim.

Tonight will be exciting I reckon , it's quite unpredictable.

Are you sure?! Have you seen the previews?!!!

For me it is the most predictable result ever in the apprentice.

I only saw 2 previews and that was about a week ago. Who makes the final then? I think Kristina but I can't think of the other person.

I'm just remembering a spolier that was posted ages ago which said that

I believe it's



I'll be very surprised if this person doesn't make the final!!

I can't understand the support for Simon, to use one of Surallan's phrases from last year, he's a lightweight. In which tasks has he ever shone or done anything of significance? Apart from the arthritic breakdancing?

If Kristina doesn't make it to the final two, I will be very disappointed.

I agree Simon isn't strong, but if you watch the clip, you'll see that Simon is the first name that Tim lists as being one of the "strong characters" this year, just after he mentions that the winner will be someone strong.

I think we all have to face up to the fact that Simon's going to win this thing.
