Lord Sugar says the original format of The Apprentice backfired badly so he decided to change it.
When the BBC business reality show began in 2005, Sugar, who hosts it, rewarded winners with a mega-paid job. But other staff in his firms became jealous.
The tycoon, 75, revealed: “A lot of people ignore the fact that the original format was that the winner would work for me for a six figure sum. That frankly never worked out too well as the winner had to work in one of my companies where people earned far less than that and were unhappy when they turned up.
