The Apprentice season 17 lands on BBC this winter and will see more business owners than usual fighting for the £250,000 investment from Lord Alan Sugar. In 2022, it was dessert parlour owner, Harpreet Kaur who won the series and since then, her business Oh So Yum has been going from strength to strength.
Flanked by his panel, Lord Alan Sugar will put the 18 businessmen and women through their paces with a series of business-related challenges. Over the years, The Apprentice has offered a pedestal to several successful business owners - including Wales’ Alana Spencer, who owns dessert business Ridiculously Rich.
The good news is viewers don't have to wait much longer before the first episode of the new series airs. Here is everything we know about BBC The Apprentice season 17.
