Last night's episode of the Apprentice took an usual twist with Lord Alan Sugar voicing his disappointment at the contestants. Instead of the traditional firing where one candidate left, he lost two at once.
The unexpected turn will have an impact on the number of candidates in next week's episode. This, coupled with the unexpected exit of one of the other candidates earlier in the series due to health concerns, means that the final episode of this series will have less than five candidates.
After Thursday night’s episode, there are now just four people left in the running to be Lord Sugar’s next business partner- all of whom are female contestants. This comes after 10 weeks of episodes of The Apprentice this year.
