I used to make all sorts of cakes and biscuits for years, but had to stop as I became a Diabetic, but can still make cup cakes using fake sugar, but not so much as they are very laxative. Not saying Alana is bad at making them, just that a lot of people can, as it isn't that hard. Can't get the smiley to work....

Personality and Alana, a lot of it is hidden

Lord Sugar picked the right two as the finalists: Alana & Courtney. Although it would have been nice to see Jessica there.

Only surprise was that Frances was in the final consideration as i though the she would an easy boot along with Grainne, who was never going to make the final two. Alana was always a shoe in to make the final.

I´m predicting Alana wins this. In terms of preference, i´m okay with either of them winning.

*sigh* the search for one of my favourites to win a reality show this year is officially over (minus BGT maybe but no1curr about that)

So annoying that Jessica lasts this whole time and then falls at the final hurdle really didn't see much value in her idea though. Then Frances is my last hope she leaves against ****ing Courtney of all people. Although, to be fair, his plan is the most interesting idea

I would say Alana better win now but let's be honest he's going to and it's going to ruin what has been a near perfect series of reality TV

I knew he had the edge when Alana was telling Lord Sugar about how she wanted to save up for a house, meanwhile he's been living with his parents

^^ I would say "legends only" but Frances isn't in the video *files nails*

Anyone else find the interviews really brutal? Almost to the point where I thought Lord Sugar was gonna be like "I can't invest in any of these" (welp)

I thought Jess was gonna snatch final 2 and I know Lord Sugar was lowkey tempted in her business plan. Frances being part of the iconic 3rd place club tho

I prefer Alana's business plan, it's a little stronger than Courtneys in terms of the product itself and the potential to grow/expand. I think Courtneys business is good and has shown to be good but also has a shelf life; along with a lot of competition

Bring on the final. I'm gonna miss this series

Neither is fried chicken but KFC is the biggest fried chicken business in the world, but I've damn sure tasted better. It's about how well your business is marketed

well i prefer Alana's business plan, and i liked how she said not only wanting Lord Sugar's money but also his advice which is great


Courtney however, well living with your parents isn't really a good thing to say, if you want to be a owner of a company, and i don't really like him, i find his pitching very bad, while Alana has more and more improved throughout the whole competition on her confidence

I kept checking Courtney's age , he's 29 but like I've said so many times he still looks like a teenager

I'm going to pray hard for Alana, her self confidence growth arc resulting in a win would be the most amazing thing ever and I genuinely think she can do it. I do like Courtney but I will be disappointed if he wins

I really wanted Jessica in the final 2 but I'm amazed she managed to snatch 4th place and get a "with regret" firing anyway <333

Her business idea was stronger than Frances' tbh. She deserved to outlast her and just be the last firing of the day. She would absolutely have been the 3rd place goddess of the year

I know most of the candidates have made mistakes, but Alana is the best option out of the 2 but I have a bad feeling Sugar is going to give it to inexperienced Courtney who still looks like a kid

Thankfully he's proven that his brain is much beyond 'kid' level

The one reason he might pick Courtney is that Alana doesn't self invest enough and Courtney seems less complicated by the looks of things.

On the other hand I can see either of them completely botching things with their speech to a large crowd. Maybe even both of them
