I've just had a yellow French fancy.

I remember Mr Freeze ice poles, ClareC, I used to have a four-a-day habit when I was in secondary school. The brown one (ostensibly coke, I think) was by far the best flavour. The blue ones (raspberry?) were good as well, they turned your tongue blue. A bit like Slush Puppies. You can still get them (Mr Freezes), but they're about 20p now.

Time to vote. Margaret thinks Lorraine should have gone. So does Rufus and the Boring Woman. And so do the audience! That's a rare sight, a sea of "You're Hired"s. Only because they all hate Lorraine though. isn't it funny how when they show clips of the first few episodes you've already forgotten those people's names? What was the American woman called? Who's that? Aaaaaaaand it's all over for another week. Thanks for reading (or not) and good night!

Welcome to the closing stages, by the way. Nice to have company in my lonely thread. I think Mike's gone for a cuppa. Is it half-time?

Debra is 23? How has that happened? She looks about 40!

Kate is "faultless", apparently. That really is quite sickening. It'd be interesting to see a Debra/ Kate face-off in the final. Although the tabloids would have a field day with appalling "Beauty & The Beast" style headlines. James! James! James! Unfortunately he has about as much chance of winning as I do.

Love Margaret. I want to see a spin-off show with Nick and Margaret dismissing wannabees with a selection of arch, withering putdowns.

Blah, boring woman guest who works for minor shopping channel, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Herding cats, that's something I'd like to see. Howard's coming across as actually a reasonable human being. Not a massive tw*t like Ben and Philip. Past viewing of this show has proven that you do, unfortunately, need to be a little bit of a massive tw*t to win this show.

I made a deliberate point of not watching Reggie Perrin. Some things should not be messed with. leonard Rossiter is one of them. Oh God, not Rufus "Who?" Hound. That bloke really thinks he's funny. They should get Hugh Dennis back, he was much better. Does anyone else remember him when he was in the Mary Whitehouse Experience?

Howard's grown a tufty little fringe like Tintin. Not sure about that at all. The sequinned crafty cat thingy did for Howard, it seems. Oh, apparently the alternatives were worse. Worse!

Well, to be fair, Debra does look a bit like a Playboy Playmate that stood too close to a candle and melted.

I used to love Howard's Way. Top Sunday evening entertainment. They should remake it with Martin Clunes. Everything else has Martin Clunes in it, so why not? Weird cultural schism, just turned over to BBC2 where Armando Iannucci is reading from "Paradise Lost". Hope this week's "Yer Fired" has got some decent guests for a change. Recent standard has been very poor. Adrian Chiles! I would.

Love James. "I'm the last bloke! I feel like Hugh Hefner!" Hurray, next week it's the interviews, that'll be a bloodbath. Right, over to BBC2!

OH MY GOD! I did NOT see that coming! Howard goes home! Lorraine got away with that by the skin of her teeth. Well, that leaves just one bloke in the final five. James, of all people, you'd never have bet on that one. God, they're a poor lot this year. Howard: "I'm gutted... maybe I need to be more of a maverick in the future." Don't be a maverick, Howard, people who are mavericks are all tossers.

Sir Alan sums up: kate's "a one trick pony" Howard's a "steady eddie" Lorraine "speaks a good game" but she's a "slow burner in the thought process" Yep, she's definitely going home.

I shall be pointlessly blogging into the ether on "Yer Fired!" after this as well. Sod it, what have I got to lose? Howard looks like he has too many teeth for his mouth. "I AM a brave warrior!" Lorraine knows she's going home in a taxi. "Natural business acumen" my arse. Don't mention your kids, Lorraine, remember what happened to Katie Hopkins. Kate: "I'm blonde and lovely, keep me, keep me!"

Difficult week this week. None of them majorly screwed up, unfortunately. Gotta be Lorraine. I think we've all had enough of her "instinct". Anyway, Siralan is clearly an old-school misogynist. He won't hire a woman if he can help it.

It's the joy of watching idiots who think they're fantastic get shot down in flames. As Woody Allen says in Annie Hall, "Boy, if life were only like this..."

I can't believe that air guitar didn't sell. I suppose the audience for the Shipping Channel are all the kind of people who don't really like music. I think Howard might be talking himself out of a job. Fire Lorraine, fire Lorraine, fire Lorraine!

Nah, this is about the only thing I pay my licence fee for, apart from Sir David Attenborough, of course.

James is enjoying that a little TOO much, I feel.

Siralan doesn't like anyone apart from him making jokes. Ooh, it's gonna be Kate, Howard and Lorraine in the boardroom! Cat fight! What's the treat this week? How crap is it? Aerobatic flying lessons. Fairly crap, but not as crap as last week's "Have Gerald Scarfe Draw An Unflattering Caricature of You" prize. Lorraine to go, surely. Her time is long overdue.

I think Lorraine fancies Howard. Not only is he "photogenic", but he's also "a great operator". Lorraine, that ship has sailed, and it's sailing to San Franciso!

That sequinned make-your-own cat kit thingy is gonna fly off the shelves, I guarantee it. People will buy any old sh*t to do with cats. AIR GUITAR!! Damn, Kate pulled it off. I keep waiting for her to mess it up, but not yet. Sod it, I'm buying one. And everyone I know is getting one for Christmas. I AM Jimmy Page reincarnated, oh yeah!

And here's Kate. She'll fall apart under the pressure, I bet you anything you like.
