Who won The Apprentice? Winner chosen by Lord Sugar as result branded 'obvious' by BBC viewers

After two months of competition and boardroom drama, The Apprentice came to an end on Thursday night, with Lord Alan Sugar naming his winner and new business partner.

And this year's champion candidate is Harpreet Kaur who beat Kathryn Burn in the final, in a result that some fans claimed was obvious before opening titles had even rolled. Millions of viewers tuned into BBC1 at 9pm for the last episode of the new series, having been delighted with the show's return, after it was put on hold for two year due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Four became two at the end of The Apprentice semi final last week, when both Stephanie and Brittany were given their marching orders by Lord Sugar after the always gruelling interview round. Both Stephanie and Brittany were back on screen on Thursday as Kathryn and Harpreet were joined by fired contestants, including Amy Anzel, for their last task of the contest, with £250,000 up for grabs.
