Posh tart Lottie is the most narcissistic woman I have ever seen on the show. She is vile.
I am pleased Thomas put his ass on the line and took the rap. Sugar probably saved him due to that. He did say 7 out of 8 times he has been in the losing team. In the preview of next weeks ep, Sugar says "this is the end of the road for you". I fear that may be Thomas. But it may not be, as he has gone up in my estimations. He could still win it.

Lottie's team didn't deserve to win IMO. The group weren't looking for high end dining with silver service. They just wanted a good time with plenty of alcohol and something quite nice to eat to soak it up. Her holier than thou attitude to Carina on the phone was really quite shocking. I'm sure if they had lost she would have been a goner. How gallant of Thomas to persuade Ryan-Mark to allow him to swap places with Pamela. He put his neck on the line and LS still sees something in him to warrant his stay for at least another week. Something tells me if he is in the losing team next week though he will be leaving. Imagine losing by £15.50! I'm so glad that Ryan-Mark has gone. If he had shaken his neck and head once more I'm sure I would have thrown something at the TV. He's apparently saying he was thinking about quitting before the boardroom scene tonight but decided to run with it. Right into the back of a black cab!

Couldn't help but notice... Sugar's playful interaction with Thomas... Sugar was trying not to smile... But failed miserably...
He loves him...

If I'd been a Victorian lady I'd have been swooning at what Thomas did for Pamela. I nearly needed the smelling salts as it was. I had a warm, rosy glow at this gallant spectacle, a young chivalrous man falling on his sword of the fair lady and having my own fantasy of Thomas lying his cloak over a puddle for me to walk over and declaring "forsooth my lady" ... .. until MrL brought me right back down to earth with: "is her boning her?" Guttersnipe. Who says romance is dead? I'm rooting for Thomas now my gallant barrowboy! And Lottie didn't win that task, more like Ryan-Mark lost it. Thank feck he's gone. I was going to say Lottie next but I'd really like her to stay now until the interviews. I would love to see her torn apart and handed her arse.

I'm gutted and I think LS is a bit too given his comments to Thomas. I knew as soon as he started talking commission to the artistes so early that he was making a huge mistake and would be on his way out. He just didn't seem to learn from the process. I wish him well and hope he finds a backer for his business as he has a lot to offer if he could just rein it in a tad. I loved his comments in the cab about his fellow contestants. A true gentleman which is rare in this day and age with younger folk.

The Apprentice will be a sadder watch without Thomas next week... Not many characters like him about these days... Due to the PC brigade and Me Too...

Well I'm in a sulk and got me black arm band on. Gutted. Like Walls as soon as our Thomas started trying to get 50% almost straight away instead of smooching the artist first like the other team I knew he'd be a gonner if they lost. How could he possibly stay? You could tell that AS was gutted at having to get rid of him and said some really nice, complimentary things about him. Thomas is such a nice, positive man, even in the back of the taxi he was still nice and singing everyone's praises, no arrogance or bitterness. And am I mistaken in picking up that the rest seemed slightly disappointed that he didn't return to the house?
I'm going to miss him next week like I've never missed an Apprentice contestant before.
For someone who's only 19 Lottie has seemingly done everything!! I believe her about this one though, learning music and playing instruments from a very young age is much more feasible and she admitted she had pushy parents - you can tell. Part of me grudgingly admires her for her confidence but she really needs to learn some people skills, that is the people she works with as she usually is polite and mannered with the people she's dealing with.

Add me to the Me Too Brigade for being gutted Thomas has gone. His (not so) little face started twitching in nervous apprehension and I really felt for him but LordSug was backed into a corner and he just couldn't let him escape again without it looking really suspect. But it will be a duller place without the passionate 'piller' salesman and that ridiculous 50% really was his death knell. Dithering Dean stays on another week when he should have gone ages ago. Will watch it to the end but had enough of it now.

So Dithering Dean has gone at last after treading water for weeks and escaping the firing as he was in the winning team. Lewis the 'marketing manager' made a prat of himself. Lotty has some good points but the other two just shut her down all the time. Nobody outstanding this year, just the best of a bad bunch will be the winner.

So the interviews were as ruthless as ever tonight. What the hell was Lottie's business plan all about in this current age? So typical of the snobby, jumped up, naive little girl. No costings at all which would have cost a bomb no doubt had they been there. Lewis was too much a maverick with a stab in the dark plan. Pamela was a lovely girl who has done reasonably well so far but her business plan was too minimal as similar to another beauty business which LS has a stake in. Scarlett and Carina deserved to get into the final and my money is on Carina for business acumen and drive but something tells me LS can see bigger ££££'s with Scarlett's. The final will be interesting.

Yes Lottie just happened to forget to include financial breakdown in her business plan! Who does she think she's kidding? Did she think she couldn't be questioned on something that isn't there? All it does is make you look inept and/or sneaky. I reckon she was never that serious and just wanted exposure on TV a la Katie Hopkins. Couldn't believe that Lewis hadn't even been to Croatia yet wanted to send people on specialist holidays there! Another chancer. I too liked Pamela but she was finished when items were found that were almost exactly the same as ones she designed which looked suspect (personally I believed her that it was a coincidence). Best two in the final. I have a have a bit of a soft spot for Scarlett since I watched the Final Five programme, she's come from 'nothing', no silver spoon or other parental help for her (missing dad by the sounds of it) grew up on a grim estate, pregnant young, another child, fella who took the 'wrong path' and ended up incarcerated (who she's no longer with) yet she's still has oodles of ambition and wants to make something of herself and, dare I say it, break the cycle. Whether she wins or not I hope she succeeds at whatever she does. But per-lease get rid of those brows! But I also like Carina and her plans for a family bakery/coffee shop empire to rival if not overtake Greggs! I love a good coffee shop. I cringed for her though when that interviewer said he'd been in her cafe and no one had asked if he'd enjoyed his coffee etc after Carina made a big thing of their hospitality in her business plan. Ditto Pamela when he said he was still waiting for his order 11 days later! Ouch. It was wonderfully brutal though. I particularly enjoyed seeing Lottie get handed her arse. And Thomas is back next week

I enjoyed the interviews although I wish Scarlett hadn't turned on the waterworks which did not impress Claude. Women want to be up there with the men but then just start blubbing, which is just not professional sorry. I had to laugh at Lottylion who 'forgot' to incorporate the figures in her business plan. Either she is incredibly daft or she just wanted to get on telly, may see her soon on a reality show. I like Carina but a baker that doesn't bake? And Pamela only had two items in her portfolio which was a non runner and she was lucky to got as far as she did.
I thought Linda Plant had mellowed somewhat.
Looking forward to them all coming together for the last task and also looking forward to seeing Thomas - BOSCH.

Scarlett must have felt as sick as a parrot but had to hide it. Any runner up would be if they were onto winning a competition out of 2 people left and the other one got chosen as the winner. Like on talent shows when a contestant is voted out they say "oh its fine" when it is clearly not fine.
I did like Scarlett, she is not fiery and fesity or up herself like Lottie was. Fiery, fesity and bossy people are an irritant to me.
