    Is it just me or was that really short? They usually pitch to 2 or so big companies then set up their own appointments right?
    That's generally a later task, pick a company's products and try to sell them.

    Tap cosy was an awful idea too, to be fair - who sits with their back to the taps?
    Splash screen was the better idea, in that it will reduce the amount of water on the floor (but you'd still have a lot of mopping up), but yeah, I don't see who'd buy the tap cosy unless they intended to make 'baths for two' a regular thing.

    "I believe in my product"

    Her rhetoric is just unbearable.

    Well, that could have been the USP, put erotic images on it and so forth. :sexface:

    7500. Not bad. Almost 1,000,000.

    I think that either Jane or Jenna is going; can't decide who I'd rather, Jane gets on my nerves, but Jenna makes my hair stand on end.

    The girl's product was more original but sucked. Kate actually did alright this week, after nearly going last week.

    I hope they feel bad about slating Azhar as PM, he did a good job - he didn't invite them to split off and make their own sub-team product.

    Oh, I think Katie has been marked as the weak target, the one people will gang up on when pushed to save themselves.

    Boy PM doesn't look happy (forgot his name, I think it has a z in it), he got attacked when he really didn't do too much wrong - market research tends to get ignored a lot by Apprentice people, and of course if someone believes they have a better idea and gets ignored, they're going to get grumpy and there's no apeasing them.

    LOL Azhar is getting insecure because nobody is patting him on the back. He just ruined his reputation.

    Jane will bring Jenna and Katie into the boardroom, that is my prediction.

    No, Laura, you came up with the splash guard, not everyone... But to be fair, the others did back it. :dontknow:

    Nobody'd see it, someone's back will be up against it Plus, this is a BBC programme, I don't think they'd allow it

    Wait, Gabrielle? Did she do the figures then? I thought she was pretty silent here...
