Noor only got that far by not doing anything in previous tasks. It was obvious that as soon as 15 year was given PM, it would fall apart with bickering and complete failure to listen to anyone else.

You have to be especially dumb, to say after everyone including Surallen says "your ad was crap" to say "I think my ad was good"

I wouldn't give her £2.50 let alone £250k

From reading around (mostly on that reddit website) she basically had nothing to do with any of them afterwards, there was a birthday party that most of them went to and some other things, but her and that Asif twonk didn't go to, maybe he wasn't invited?

It was his mouth that damaged his career

I agree with the consensus here that Noor was a hopeless candidate and way out of her depth. That's not uncommon on this show, but she also didn't appear to have gelled with the other candidates. I felt sorry for Tre; he tried to help her but she just blanked him. He did well to keep his cool.

Another thing; there's now nine remaining candidates (I think) with two more shows before we get to the interviews and the final. Will we see a triple firing or something similar?

That's him. He's a thoroughly horrible arrogant man.

Yep, she was completely deluded and didn't seem to want to get on with any of them. Had she have been a bit more mature, she'd have listened to him and worked with him. He seems a good bloke and is one of the best on there. She was stupid to have acted the way she did.

I am afraid Noor couldn't run a corner shop.

She was the worst candidate I've ever seen watching the show since the beginning.

I was a bit on the fence with Tre however warmed to him more seeing that and thought he seemed quite a decent guy.

Couldn't agree more that Noor was one of the most hopeless candidates we've ever seen.

I found Tre annoying initially but I'm warming to him in more recent weeks and thought he handled Noor's childish petulance very well last night. He's definitely one to watch.

Most importantly, whilst I agree that Maura has fine pins, they're not a patch on Flo's. Shame she was all thoroughly trousered last night.

Me too. I think the fact that he is older (50?) means he is more mature, more balanced etc. I think he would be a good team member.

Another converted fan of Tre here. His facial expressions were priceless at Noors inability to take advice. Karen backed him up in the boardroom too. He also wears the same Tom Ford glasses as me so he is clearly a man with some sartorial elegance.

These rewards are pathetic

It would be better for SAS to say - I am going to donate X (which might be say 5k) to charity X on behalf of the team
And the team spend a day with the charity.

I would feel better as a contestant knowing my GBPx has been donated than some nonsense reward

Why do they need a reward at all? Surely winning the task and surviving to the next round of the process is reward enough in itself. I don't get an extra reward every time I do my job without getting fired.

I just see this week in week out.

Week one.
Winning team makes £5000 profit - Sugar "Brilliant well done, you did me proud. Here's your fun, cocktails at the Savoy. Enjoy yourselves"
Losing team makes £4999 profit - Sugar "You scum embarrass me. Useless lumps, I should fire the lot of you"

Week two.
Winning team makes £2 profit - Sugar "Brilliant well done, you did me proud. Here's your fun, an abseiling day. Enjoy yourselves"
Losing team makes £1.50 profit - Sugar "I hate you all"

Coming second isn’t winning. In many business scenarios you need to win even if it’s just by £1
