Simon could have survived at the expense of Claire who plotted & schemed to make him look bad. Sadly he did not pick up fully on the life-line offered and almost talked himself back into trouble. Margaret & Alex had both attempted to highlight the devious Claire obvous intentions to blame Simon for the failure almost before the task had got underway and that was even more obvious when she delighted when the numbering production office went 'pear shape.' She was nearly caught out by Sir Alan and I was convinced she would be fired!!!! Trouble is Simon needs to learn from his mistake...."When winning shut up." He wrestled failure from the jaws of success!!! Not the brightest move. Liked the way Claire arrived back at the house all smiles stating "Sir Alan had requested she Project Managed the next task." Almost implying that she had been given a vote of confidence from Sir Alan Sugar. "Nothing about Sir Alan being sick of her face and to get out!!!!!" She is fatally flawed because the one thing Sir Alan will not want in an apprentice is a 'devious person.' He will want some solid foundations with the successful appentice. Trust & faith with a degree of transparency in his dealing with an apprentice and she is underhanded and scheming, which only works if not discovered in the work place.She has now been rumbled and she is now a dead CV on legs.
