Played the gay adversity card with no-nonsense Sugar, big mistake, would probably still be there otherwise.

1 boy and 5 girls left.

Agreed. Cringed at that speech, his sexuality wasn't the reason he designed a st game.

The part of the studio that the director tells her to.

Good to see they've bothered stumping up for one rather than just using 'the hand'

Target audience was 16-34 (something like that anyway) so both teams come up with games aimed at 6 year olds or families, only going to go one way from there.
I do wonder what they're expected to come up with though in such a limited amount of time and no experience. One team said at one point "we want flying saucers and planets and this and that", the designer replied "thats a lot for the amount of time we have", no st rolleyes
Thought Jessica was going to go again at the beginning of her presentation, she held it together well after that though. She comes across as a bit awkward trying to communicate with and doesn't know how to react when she is criticised sometimes doing a weird laugh or sarcastic reply.
Scratching my head trying to work out how Courtney is now the only bloke left, probably the wettest blanket we've had on the programme, he's been a very lucky boy and he must be living on borrowed time. Either that or he has some amazing business plan.

Shame they couldn't have glued the carpet down properly in the reception area.

I'd say she desperately needs some presentation skills training. She's bloody useless in front of a crowd and that was even with a prompt card held in her hand. She cannot lead a business and crumble so easily every time she has to address an audience.

She seems to be the Operations Director for her PR company, so it's possible she has never found the need to do public speaking. I suppose it's a problem for the self-employed, because all major companies would give their senior staff some training in this sphere. Once you've done it a few times it comes more naturally.

Maybe (and it's true that bigger companies offer more opportunity to hone skills) but as operations director would she not address her staff? Even make a speech at her Christmas dinner? She just seems to crumble every time she is on centre stage, even when Sugar just asks her opinion.
