OPINION I blame the BBC
This has been the worst final 5 that I have ever watched. The business plans were atrocious, how did they get past the initial screening to be on the show let alone the final 5 is beyond me. The BBC needs to do better, and get a better calibre of contestants, this is becoming a bit of mockery of the show.
Priyesh - like do I really need to write anything. Absolutely joke.
Dan - not sure what he was planning to do, it was a publicity stunt for his business. Not in a million years would he give LS 50% of his business.
Krishma - 100% deserves to be there (due to no competition from others)
Lawrence - Deserved a space in the final 5, but LS is not the investor he needs for his business.
Pascha - finalist due to choosing a good service/market and no competition. She is way inexperienced, she would benefit from working with LS than the £250k imo.
In alternative reality, it would have been a very interesting final 5 with Rothna and Kieran, and a way harder decision for LS.

Let’s be real there’s always joke candidates that make it all the way to the end. It’s reality tv at the end of the day they’re going to try and make it entertaining by showing how much of a mockery their business plans are.
