James McQuillan, the 32-year-old Commercial Manager from Surrey, with a 'foot in mouth' problem has now faced Sir Alan two weeks running in explosive boardroom showdowns.

He's likened himself to a 'banana skin' and Sir Alan joked that his managerial style was more 'Churchill the nodding dog' than Winston Churchill.

Heading up his team in this week's task he failed to win orders, or Sir Alan's approval, with his product that looked like 'an upside telly with a couple of wires hanging out if it.'

After his failure in the fitness task, he was just a breath away from being fired. 'I can feel that I'm getting better at everything,' he pleaded, with tears in his eyes to the boss.

In a lucky, logic-defying escape, James was rescued from the firing finger by the formidable Margaret. She spoke up for James and said he wasn't 'too bad at management,' and it was Maj who was whisked away in a taxi.

But Sir Alan finished, 'you were so far out of that door you don't even know...' The former chess champion managed to escape the boardroom this week without wetting himself, but will need to make some sharp, strategic moves to impress the boss in the coming tasks.
