Well, managed to persuade DH that we were too tired to go to the pub. So I got to watch the whole programme and he lounged around elsewhere 😊

The clothes were hideous and Jade really did have to go. Wrong brand name, you can’t get much bigger a mistake. No negotiation. And the clothes 🤮

Mind you whatsiname as a model was not good but he was loving it!

I thought Joanna wasn’t bad actually. The look on Michaela’s face though when she was paired with Elizabeth 😂

Thanks all for the witty pre-commentary.

Dimwit Jade finally gone!! I like Harrison but his time was definitely up.

Love hearing the comments about sourpuss Joanna and the grudging acknowledgement of her win. She's won twice as PM and has most wins at 8/10. She chose a good, saleable line of clothes, negotiated a good commission and handled the team well and yet "she wasn't bad actually".

And Liz thinks she's carried her from day 1.

She won't win but she's head and shoulders above many of the dimwits in the process Wink

Joanna is the best of the lot.
She is eloquent, confident and determined

I'll be gutted if Elizabeth isn't in the final as she is comedy gold plus a bloody hard worker. However, I predict she'll fall at the final hurdle (the cringe interviews).
My money is onJames or Sarah and Michaela for the final.

Areyoubeingserviced Joanna won't win but love that she's got guts. She had to take on board comments about her difficult disposition and she did when she left the room last week when paired with Jade, and had a cry. She knew that none of her comments, no matter how valid, were going to be taken on board by Jade - even the obvious one of having the ingredients on the food box label. Then Jade lied in the boardroom to say the lack of information was an oversight (yep, total oversight of Joanna's suggestion)

But after her cry Joanna re-entered the room with dignity and apologised for the break. Poetic justice that they squared off last night and that Joanna crushed her - loved it!

So glad Harrison got fired, sexist and arrogant

Thought Jade had been better in previous tasks so a shame she went.

Sarah annoyed me that she bailed out of negotiating and put I’ll on Jade

maggiethecat · 07/12/2017 11:43

if you can't do simple negotiation should you be in the process?

MarshaBradyo · 07/12/2017 11:44

She should but the other two were so lame saying you do it to all the big decisions

maggiethecat · 07/12/2017 11:58

Marsha, you'll have to admit she couldn't stay - other than the negotiation point, she's in PR and she couldn't even get the branding right and kept pushing the designer's name; as compere described the clothing material as ingredients - embarrassing.

MarshaBradyo · 07/12/2017 12:04

The catwalk voice over was cringe-inducing. They were all mistakes but she was left high and dry. Wasn’t she really good in previous tasks, think I’d remembered that

I’m not that wedded to her staying, but the other two did annoy me with the not best placed stuff from Sarah and Harrison just bailing. I would have been ok with just him going, but I don’t feel that strongly ;

MarshaBradyo · 07/12/2017 12:07

And the other team were lucky to get away with that awful middle part hairstyle - twice

So bad

maggiethecat · 07/12/2017 12:10

thankfully they didn't lose because of a hairdo.

gingergenius · 07/12/2017 12:11

Bloody should've done though. It was awful!

MarshaBradyo · 07/12/2017 12:11

Yep ok

MarshaBradyo · 07/12/2017 12:12

Exactly Ginger

maggiethecat · 07/12/2017 12:31

bad hairdo over rubbish negotiations, marketing, blunders etc? hmmm

put you in Alan's chair next year

MarshaBradyo · 07/12/2017 12:36

I’m being very serious over it of course

Opheliasgoldenwine · 07/12/2017 15:45

I know it's Alan's policy that no-one from the winning team gets eliminated. BUT WHY ARE JOANNA AND JAMES STILL IN THIS AND JADE IS NOT?!AngryAngryAngry

JeanSeberg · 07/12/2017 15:52

Looking forward to the interviews, especially the clip where Linda Plant told Elizabeth she ought to "lower her attitude" or whatever she said. LP comes across as someone with very few redeeming features.

Figgygal · 07/12/2017 16:53

Elizabeth was on radio 5 live last night talking about Brexit and affects on business that pretty much confirmed to me she's not going to win

Opheliasgoldenwine · 07/12/2017 17:13

I'm happy Elizabeth has made it this farGrin

Slartybartfast · 07/12/2017 18:36

oh I wonder if Joanna will suceed

Opheliasgoldenwine · 07/12/2017 18:46

Is it possible to put bets (online) who you think will win?

Speaking of which, who DO people will think will win?

I was adamant Sarah would but I think it will be a close call between her and a Michaela.

Anyone else have thoughts?

Slartybartfast · 08/12/2017 07:28

I just read this morning James is the favourite Shock and definately not Joanna.
and Also Elizabeth is 39 Shock
