Ros, she has more determination and business acumen than all of them put together. She's already a success and you can see the others (Jim and Helen) revelling in her distress atm.

TBF I agree with you - it was quite innovative of her TBF
I'm still behind Tom and I think he had the best 'in taxi' speech.
I think Susie certainly has the most viable business plan.
It's getting TENSE

I had to continually submit PAYE despite never having any employees so i dont see how that is extra work. Company accounts and income tax was a lot of work but i dont think they would have taken the excuse of but it takes so much work if i didnt pay it.

Hey, I'm with Susan. She wasn't to know then.... but she needs to know now.

me too, funnily enough.
I still don't like susan, but agree she does have what it takes, but she's just a bit naive atm. She's lucky she didn't burn someone's face off with a dodgy cream because she obviously not thought about public liability insurance.

Me too 
think Tom or Susan
I think Karren's just summed it up and why i think Tom will win. He needs the business input.
If something takes off and you're acting on your feet making stuff, packaging it, selling it and hoping for the best ..............you really don't know (at the time) all the legalities involved. No one knows how successful it's gonna be .........................it' really is a wait and see thing - then you sort it out!
Susan should have paid more attention to economies of scale at uni. Bless.

It has to be Tom or Susie

Yea i think so too in terms of practicality
I think what Karen said about Tom was very pertinent and correct(of course)
Hey, snap Ros.
Oooh here we go....

I am what it says on the tin Kaff, to be sure 
My gut feeling is that Lord Sugar will hire Tom..........but it could be Susan or Jim. If he hires Helen I'll be stunned, because her business idea is a bit lame IMO.
I'd like it to be Susan or Tom.
Helen looks like her bun is too tight.
I agree Lord S Helen's plan was a bit rubbish.....
I really can't decide who he'll choose......

definitely liver - she blew it on that BUT can see why she wanted it to be a unique plan - just doesn't always work
Aren't there already back friendly chairs out there?
Lord sugar you already do have to perform a desk chair check if the employee requires it.
Ill see you off on the plane
At the mo - looks as though he won't appoint anybody
Red herring if Tom wins.

Lord Sugar is wrong there. He actually wants to see all the health and safety stuff that gets botched in so many businesses.

"sugar" I bet that went down well..
