The Apprentice fans spot 'sneaky' Amy tactic as Lord Sugar makes savage boardroom dig

The Apprentice fans were quick to point out Amy Anzel's 'sneaky' tactic as they tuned into the BBC series on Thursday evening and witnessed her get fired.

This week's episode saw the remaining candidates head to one of the UK's tourist hot-spots north Wales as they took on another one of Lord Alan Sugar's epic challenges.

The two groups were told they had the opportunity to capitalise on the booming tourism market and were tasked with running their own highland railway and quarry and zip line tours.

One team hit a low point when they ended up paying a high price for their tour tickets, and on the other team time was wasted when selling to the public.

Back in the boardroom, Lord Sugar was on the prowl for answers and he did not hold back when it came to Amy.

"You're avoiding the spotlight the way that Dracula avoids sunbathing," the businessman told her, as the rest of the candidates tried their best not to laugh.

Lord Sugar then reference to the fact that Amy had once lived in Los Angeles and asked her if she was a LA Dodger in reference to the fact that she hadn't taken on the role of project manager.

Viewers tuning in at home were in hysterics and took to Twitter to comment.

"SO GLAD he called Amy out on being a floater. LA Dodger #Apprentice," one person tweeted.

Another tweeted: "Good, I’m glad Lord Sugar is calling Amy and her smug face out #apprentice #theapprentice."

And Amy's dodging tactic hadn't gone unnoticed by viewers either as they'd tweeted about it earlier on in the episode before she was fired.

One person asked: "@bbcapprentice #apprentice why is Amy still in, she pushes people to be pm as she feels perhaps they will be the ones fired at the end. Very #sneaky and not an attractive quality."

Another posted: "Here goes #Amy throwing everyone under the bus , while doing absolutely fu*k all #apprentice."

A third viewer asked: "WHY IS AMY SO INFURIATING? #apprentice #TheApprentice #theapprenticeuk."

And another added: "Amy throwing another candidate under the project manager bus yet again #TheApprentice #apprentice."

After being fired from the show, Amy said: "I think Lord Sugar has missed out on a huge opportunity by firing me, but I will scale up and expand my business now - obviously without him."

The Apprentice continues Thursdays at 9pm on BBC One.
