I would imagine he has learnt all he knows from Daddy. People that behave like that are generally expect to by their family.

I was in the minority and liked Nicholas. I didn't like him on the show but thought he came across very well in YF. However I really felt Alex well and truly shafted him in the board room. As they say you reap what you sow and I'm hoping Alex will eventually get whats coming for him. Working for Sir Alan would probably be a complete nightmare anyway

well, I think given the way the GBP seem to have gradually gone off Alex, I think it's safe to say the chance of a media career he was apparently hoping for has ebbed away somewhat.....it was fantastic to see Raef got a big interview in Heat magazine the other week, Alex must have been quietly seething....

I was really surprised by how much Nick seemed to rate him.

As I said elsewhere, Nick seems to be off his game this series...

Please don't take the opinions of internet message boards and chatrooms as representative of the majority of the British public. The result of most public vote shows in comparison to the opinions of people on the net should show you that.

I can assure you that all the offers that were there for Alex should he not win the series are still there.

As for the interview with Raef rather than Alex in Heat, you may have failed to notice the small matter of Raef being out of the competition whether as Alex isn't.

If you genuinely believe any of that, you are on another planet.

Funnily enough I am well aware of this fact. However it is perfectly clear that Alex is not terribly popular with the viewers of the show. I'm not just referring to DS but an overall perception of popularity.


That was actually a tongue in check comment, but I would point out that early in the series Alex featured quite heavily in Heat magazine regardless of the fact he was in the show. The reason I mentioned it was simply because his tiny band of supporters on here have been banging on about Alex being some kind of Heat pin up for weeks on end....

Funnily enough, I would gauge the opposite from the internet generally, despite the fact that as usual it's the minority that is the most vocal.

There is a huge difference between featuring someone and carrying out an interview with them. The interview with Raef was carried out because he was out of the show.

Jeeeeez................ criticising the family you don't know of someone you don't know when trying to call someone shameful (for doing something that was in fact commendable in business and in life).

Irony of ironies.


I wasn't. Nick is astute and perceptive as ever.


You mean he's not saying what you would agree with.

Yes but the fact is that as the weeks have progressed their focus has changed from being very Alex-centric to being, well, not so much.....

Please don't tell me what I think, thanks. Nope it's not that he isn't agreeing with what I think, it is very unlikely that this is going to happen all the time with anyone in any situation in life. I just have found him to be making statements without having the evidence to back them up, or when their is evidence that contradicts what he is saying. He has also missed things that have been said or done that I think in the past he would have picked up on.
