July 17, 201114 yr I really dont like the interviews being the FINAL rather than deciding who gets into the final. It was FAR too short.
July 17, 201114 yr Interviews over already :( I wanted to see a little more of Margaret, and I wanted to see some PROPER f***-ups like someone doing a reverse pterodactyl or boasting about stealing people's husbands. THAT'S what the interviews are supposed to be about.
July 17, 201114 yr I have absolutely no idea who came out of that well and who didn't! I don't think any of them really did. Susan's idea sounded the most viable but she made a few f***-ups in her business plan. Tom's seemed like an out-and-out DISASTER, Jim hasn't done basic market research and was unable to stop speaking in cliches, and Helen's idea is just $h!t and has no real USP.
July 17, 201114 yr I think Karen hit the nail on the head there, Lord Sugar has the business head already so would he benefit from having someone who is just a worse version of him? Tom and Helen would bring different attributes, one in his inventiveness, the other in her drive and level of effort. Susan similarly would be okay, it's just Jim for me who has literally nothing to offer him.

Has he mentioned whether he was planning on just being a silent investor or an active participant? If he does want to sit back, he'd be best off with Susan who would be the most self-sufficient of the four, and who is the only one who already has toes dipped into the water she is planning on submerging herself in. But yes, Karren made a good point about Tom and Sirallun maybe complimenting each other and bringing together very different sides - Sirallun's commercial awareness with Tom's innovation.
July 17, 201114 yr I think I'm going to bet on a Susan victory. I didn't think I'd be saying that a few weeks ago.

July 17, 201114 yr http://www.moopy.org.uk/forums/images/smilies/grin.gif HA damn that Lord Sugar. The MINUTE I back Susan... If I DO have the reverse Midas touch, I WANT HELEN TO WIN EVERYBODY
July 17, 201114 yr Tom would be an amazing winner! :o Helen would be good too but Tom has been my favourite contestant this year. Actually, employ both as they work brilliantly together!
July 17, 201114 yr OMFG at Helen - this is SHAMELESS :o SURELY Lord Sugar won't agree to invest in a business that he hasn't seen yet?
