Episode 11 The Apprentice: You're Fired

This was mayhem. That don't look good. It is not rocket science.

Couldn't organise a piss-up in a brewery. Bloody clueless.

Total bloody mess. You're fired. You are fired.

You're fired. You're fired.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

What happened there?

Good evening and welcome to the interview special edition

of The Apprentice: You're Fired!

Five candidates faced a grilling

by Lord Sugar's inquisitors but by the end,

only two remained. After one of the most surprising episodes in years,

we'll be unravelling what happened to Jordan, Francesca and Neil.

What happened to Jordan?! What happened to Neil?!

So many questions. We'll be assessing the merits also

and the challenges faced by Luisa and Leah as they go

head-to-head in next week's final. Now let's meet our panel.

Entrepreneur and business investor Dale Murray,

Radio One's Matt Edmondson, and comedian Andi Osho,

welcome to You're Fired!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

So tonight, it was finally the chance to scrutinise

the final five's business plans leading to one candidate

IMMEDIATELY being shown the door.

Jordan, I've got nowhere further

to go really with this business plan of yours.

Jordan, you are fired.

Thank you for the opportunity, Lord Sugar.

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Jordan Poulton.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

APPLAUSE DROWNS SPEECH

-That didn't last long, Jordan, did it?

-It didn't.

-It didn't.

But you know when you got away from the interviews and went into the boardroom...

Yeah, I knew from about the first five minutes of the interviews that I was gone.

Really? Really? There's a bit of you with your hand clenching

and unclenching, and you're keeping a facade up...

-I didn't show the tears.

-Oh, God, that was tough.

By the way, it's kind of ironic really because normally

when you get fired, you get 100% of a show to yourself.

And you don't even get 50.

You get 33.3%

which is the kind of figures you were bandying about,

which is fair enough - at least it's mine to offer. Um, so...

APPLAUSE

The deal. The deal, Jordan. Let's see how this deal let you down.

-You say you can solve a Rubik's Cube in under three minutes.

-Yes.

Your time starts now.

This process is to find Lord Sugar a business partner

-but you already have a partner.

-Yes.

You are not a shareholder in this business,

therefore you've got no right to negotiate or to give away

a part of a business that you do not own.

I've had a gentleman's agreement since the day I met this person

and told him what my vision was, that I'd be part of this company.

Cut the crap here.

Oh, I'm sorry. I made a mistake, I'll admit it.

It was the pressure.

You've got no right to be here

because you're feeding on somebody else's idea.

I think this interview is terminated. You can leave now.

Were you under the impression that this was Dragons' Den?

Could I not have made this more clear?

Every time I do this at the camera, 50% of the business,

250 grand. What part of that memo did you seem to not get?

No, I did get that. But an investment is a little bit more than

just an amount of money and a percentage.

And I was maybe a bit heavy-handedly trying to make a point like that.

Yeah. By the way, there were other people in this business,

this pre-existing business.

Yeah. So I'd been working on this business for six months

with my partner and, in actual fact,

he had started a limited company before he'd met me,

but it was a pre-product business and there was no money that we were

making so he was using it to monitor expenses and that sort of stuff.

So I was really stupid in not

making sure that I'd fixed the equity before I came in.

So it left you in an awkward the position. But 15.39%?

-Um...

-Look, you're a charming man

but it takes a fair amount of sweet-talking to go,

"You say 50. I say 15.39."

I maybe saw it as a negotiating point

-and we could meet somewhere in the middle.

-Really?!

Yes, somewhere in the middle being 50%.

Because it's drummed in, even if the process was going on,

50% this, 250 grand, 50%, 250 grand.

Did you know that this time bomb was ticking at some stage and that you would have to...

Yeah, I knew it was coming but I like to break the rules.

Yes! That worked out delightfully(!) Now...

And the other thing was the setting up of a new business.

There had been the setting up of a new business.

That was partly why I made the mistake with the equity.

Because it would be a new business I thought, "Why do I need to worry

"about fixing the equity in this existing business if I have to start a new business anyway?"

But the person I had been working with knew what was happening

and we'd agreed what we would share if and when I won the investment.

-I assumed that would be enough but clearly not.

-OK, fine.

Dale, by the way, I'll just introduce you. You now work as

an angel investor which is start-ups and putting investment into companies.

You yourself, you brought mobile top-ups to this country first.

So you're coming from that experience into it.

This was an unusual technique

to approach The Apprentice interview with.

This was an extremely odd technique, I think.

I think whenever you approach anyone for an investment,

especially when they've gone through this process,

a ten-week process, really arduous, I think

you've got yourself really tied up in knots at the end.

You needed to have a much more compelling story

and be quite clear and quite straightforward

because investors, in 30 seconds, can look at Companies House

information and find you out, and they always will.

Yes, the honest truth is that I'm not trying to pull the wool over anyone's eyes.

It was a huge mistake and there's no excuse. It was a schoolboy error.

Matt, were you surprised? Shocked?

I was not surprised that he's been fired, no. I was shocked...

I was shocked

at how it all crumbled at the end.

Not least of all the Rubik's Cube. What happened there?

We've heard his schemes for the business.

I want to know why that little guy didn't get solved.

I wish I had one. I could do one now and show I can actually do it.

Have you been practising since the day you were five?

Sat in your room going, "Right,

"it's two turns to the right, one turn to the left and it's done!"

We'd gone ten weeks and I hadn't even thought about it

and someone starts a stopwatch and it's stressful and I crumbled.

You were basically in Rubik's rehab.

-You had not had time to play around with it.

-Yeah.

-OK.

-Andi, were you surprised?

-Not surprised.

My advice would be, like, if you are going to sell

a business that doesn't belong to you, aim for the sky.

You know, you should've gone in there and gone,

"I'm starting a business. It sells phones, tablets.

"We're playing around with like a fruit-based name, pears,

"orange, maybe apple. We'll see what comes."

-You should go in like that.

-Yeah, yeah.

250 grand. By the end of the week,

you could walk down Regent Street, "I'll have a shop there..."

Were you tempted, by the way, when the heat was on

and you knew you were going to get fired to pull the old...

HE GASPS AND COUGHS

-No.

-I had to bring it up. I knew you'd bring it up. You're the one who brought it up...

literally. Bits of things from days ago.

-It was horrendous what was going on.

-I was trying not to cough.

This is what Lord Sugar had to say about you.

Jordan seemed to be

a very credible business prospect,

winning seven out of ten tasks.

But there were concerns that he is a facilitator rather than the doer.

Jordan hit a brick wall when it came to light that the business

he wanted me to invest in wasn't his.

In the end, I was quite angry.

I was never going to go into business with two people

and that's why I had to fire Jordan.

Did you not have a specific idea that you wanted to do on your own?

I mean, like, you're a smart guy.

You were in the Investment Society.

You know about the structure of small businesses.

You know, gentleman's agreement, you know that doesn't mean anything - in this kind of context.

So, why did you not come up with a separate idea?

I wanted to show that actually there was something

I'd been seriously working on with a partner,

I'd started to speak to customers and I don't think that came across.

OK, granted.

It looked like you'd come in on the back of that rather than the other way round.

I get that. And it was silly.

I think that maybe I should have thought more about

how it would come across in something like that.

Businesses, presumably at this stage, are springing up and then

rejoining and falling apart and coming together and falling apart.

Yes, I guess that does happen. It certainly can.

But there's still no excuse to go into a process like this and not

-have that straightened out but I think you've learnt that lesson.

-I totally agree.

-Are you scared of commitment?

-It's not that I'm scared of commitment.

It's really just that I think that

until we think that something is proven, that we know that people

want to use it, it seems like a waste of time

and fluff to worry about signing contracts and deciding who owns what.

No, no. It takes ten minutes to go on the internet, take ten minutes

and you set a company up and you say this person has this shareholding

and that person has this shareholding. It's done.

It can cost as little as £20 and you've got your company formed.

It's in black and white. Everyone knows where they stand.

You don't want have a fallout six months down the track when your partner says,

"No, I'm now going to get three quarter's of the company because

"I'm the one who put all the ideas and all the energy into it."

So get it sorted now, please. Please.

APPLAUSE

It's been a pleasure having you here. As I say, it's very fast.

We only get to talk to you briefly

but we do like to give a gift nonetheless to our candidates.

And ours comes in two parts. The first is obviously that. And...

Solve it! Solve it!

..the second is an egg timer so that you will never make

a claim about yourself that you cannot be entirely sure.

I'm not and get you to do it because it would be the most boring

three minutes of television in history.

But that is for you to back up.

Jordan, congratulations on reaching the final five. Here are your highlights.

Even when under pressure, I try to remain upbeat.

Life isn't about weathering the storm,

it's about learning to dance in the rain.

# I'm singing in the rain... #

I love pressure. Make me happy - 990.

-An order for 200.

-I'd love to do that with you guys.

-Very organised, efficient.

-A pleasure to work with.

I'm not afraid to try anything.

Ooh, maybe I should try that, is that going to sting my mouth?

Aaaargh!

Take all our beer!

Jordan's a real team player.

I get quite excited about things.

I am a strong, sexually liberated and high-powered woman.

In terms of the feedback everyone likes my hairnet, right?

-His heart's in the right place.

-No matter what you throw at me,

I'll jump it, hurdle it, climb it...

First place is Jordan!

I will succeed.

APPLAUSE

Ladies and gentlemen, Jordan Poulton!

Three women were left at the end of this long process,

but there's only room for two. One of them had to go.

Difficult decision, here, ladies -

one which, you know, I might live to regret.

But...

Francesca, you're fired.

-Thank you for your time.

-I wish you the best of luck.

Please welcome Francesca MacDuff-Varley!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

A strange mixture of being proud and disappointed to have come that close,

or is it just disappointed?

I did my best, I think. Third was amazing for me. God...

I was happy with week one or two, to be honest. LAUGHTER

Let's take a look where it went wrong for you tonight, though.

I don't think there's anything here

that indicates to me that you can run a big business.

But I'd be concerned about you investing a significant

amount of money with her. I'm not sure she can scale it up.

Where are we on sort of turnover and profit?

Erm, I don't know to split it up to you, but...

I mean, you should know that.

You should know your numbers.

She probably would need your help more than any of them actually

to deliver this.

We turn over around sort of £50,000, £60,000 profit.

No, hang on - you can't turn over profit.

On her CV here it says turnover, £5 million.

Turnover of £5 million?

-That was just a number five came into my head.

-It's just farcical.

Do you know what, I am more than happy for today to be over.

One of the phrases that will stick to me from this episode -

"It was just a number that came into my head."

Well, it was either five or ten and I thought ten was totally unbelievable.

LAUGHTER

APPLAUSE

"They'll never check!"

It's like someone at the end of a GCSE maths exam going,

"Oh, I've left a few - oh, 7, 24...

"5 million!"

You scrutinise hundreds of business plans.

That wouldn't have got missed, would it?

That would definitely not have got missed.

I think it's great that you learned a good lesson here, which is

perhaps that financials and numbers are not your strength...

I have an accountant for that!

Well, you CAN get an accountant for that - by all means get

a business person or a partner or an accountant to work with you that can

support you in that area, so you've got the weakness, it's no big deal.

But don't gloss over it,

do make sure that you get someone that can help you through that.

I think it would be fantastic if you could bring your accountant into the house with you for the 12 weeks.

That's a winner!

"He's my accountant." Just behind you going "I'm just here to do all the numbers."

Yeah, but I'm a choreographer, I go five, six, seven, eight, one.

Two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

-There you go.

-They're the only numbers you have. And the only numbers you need.

That's all we need - five, six, seven, eight, one...

So it could have been turnover - and turn, and turn...

And turn...

You've got it there.

Pick a number, it's fantastic!

It's a brilliant policy, isn't it. It is a brilliant policy, to be able to pluck a number out of thin air.

I think it's something that Claude does to people.

It's happened in the past - he makes people's maths brains just evaporate...

I don't answer him.

I daren't answer him, I just thought he's going to crucify me whatever I say.

Did you think of saying,

"Why do YOU think it says five, then, Claude?

"You've read the business plan. What do YOU think?"

I loved Claude, he was brilliant.

It's very much the sort of Dr Evil school of accounting, it's like "5 million..."

You're just like randomly...

Was it literally just randomly you picked a number that you thought might...

I just thought, what can I divide really quickly? Ten or five.

But it was in print.

It was in your business plan as well.

It was on the front cover of the business plan.

Well, just in case they missed it on page 46.

Were you tempted to do jazz hands at any stage?

Well, if it all failed I was just going to moonwalk down the boardroom table.

"Oh, my legs aren't moving but I seem to be leaving the room...!"

But that's the plan that presumably you're continuing with, Zumba and all these things.

Yeah, like fitness exercise - group exercise is huge, everybody's heard of Zumba, Bokwa, Powerhoop,

it's massive, and casting aspersions, but most women

like to go to classes and do it in a group, not the gym, so

there's a massive market for somewhere like that, in the North as well.

OK. You've been praised by the other candidates throughout

for being a fair and straightforward person to work with,

but that doesn't mean you don't have your fierce side.

I will come out fighting.

What don't you understand about shut up?

MENACING MUSIC

GROWLING

-I'm a pussycat, really!

-Yeah... Yeah, yeah.

Pussycats come in many sizes.

-That was leopard skin you were wearing sometimes.

-I do like it.

You do like a leopard skin! But you've got feline eyes, you know. And moves like a cat.

-Like a panther.

-Miaow!

The dancing is so addictive.

The fearsome face - is it a look you've cultivated

within the classes, is it useful to have that kind of...?

I didn't even know I pulled those faces!

I'm quiet, I think no-one's going to know what I'm thinking...

They know what I'm thinking. I need to stop that.

You thought that was your poker face?!

LAUGHTER

Did you find that intimidating, Andi?

No, it was fun. You should do it all the time.

Just whenever you go into a shop maybe buying shoes... "Grrrr!"

-Just do it.

-"This is me happy. Rarrrr!"

"I need these in a size 6!"

You did say that one of your key skills was planning,

and creativity - that kind of bit you a bit

when you did the awayday corporate day, cos that was the one

that was most obviously tuned towards you,

which is a classic Apprentice thing, people do the thing most attuned to them.

I did love your motivational speech, though. I thought it was, it spoke deep...

-Did it?

-Oh, the bit where you said, "I, for example,

"wanted to be a police officer. I'm not."

I think that spoke to a lot of people who wanted to be something - but aren't.

Didn't tell them to BECOME the thing, just said, "Yeah. I wanted to be."

I wanted be an astronaut. I'm not.

You made it to task 11. Let's hear what Lord Sugar had to say about you.

Francesca has done well to reach this stage of the process.

She's always conducted herself with dignity.

But I haven't really seen much entrepreneurial flair.

She's been running her business for many years -

but I'm not convinced that she has the confidence and ability

to raise it to the next level

and that's why Francesca had to go.

You're presumably going to try to prove him wrong in that, aren't you?

You've got to respect Lord Sugar, he knows exactly what he's doing and what he's looking for as well.

I think I'm in a business area that he doesn't necessarily

understand as much, and I think in a lot of elements

he was right that I've got a lot of learning to do to take it bigger.

But it's something I definitely want to do, so I'm not going to NOT do it.

I want to take on board what he said and just learn from that. And hopefully move forward.

And then hopefully at some stage somebody will say, "By the way, you've just turned over £5 million"

and you'll go, "I never thought I'd see the day...!"

Listen, we're going to leave you with a gift.

This show couldn't make one of your dreams come true, but there is

one dream you've held since you were a child, and if there's anything we can give you

it's some image of how you would have looked,

both snarling and growling.

The Face... This is the police officer

we think you would have been.

Yes. That's brilliant.

Francesca, congratulations on making it to the last three. Here are your highlights.

I'm firm, I'm fair and feisty, and I'm very ambitious.

-Go with 20?

-Make it 20.

-Could we go to maybe 50?

-OK...

We've now sold 174.

MUSIC: "Conga" by Miami Sound Machine

People do underestimate me at first.

I don't know whether it's the blonde hair and the dance background...

My motto in life is, go hard or go home.

I'm tough as old boots!

Francesca's one of my favourite people in the house.

-Oh, I love her to bits.

-Underneath, I know what I'm talking about.

Patatas? Patata?

If it sticks, it's ready.

What you see is what you get.

Let's just hope everyone else can deal with that.

Ladies and gentlemen, Francesca MacDuff-Varley!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

The firing of our final candidate tonight was a surprise to all of us,

and a surprise and a regret for Lord Sugar.

Neil, if this was all about giving someone a job,

I'd give you a job tomorrow. Right?

But coming into business with me, I'm afraid not, my friend. I'm sorry.

I'm disappointed - but, Neil,

it is with regret that I have to say to you, that...you're fired.

Thank you for the opportunity.

Please welcome Neil Clough.

CHEERING

CHEERING DROWNS OUT SPEECH

CHEERING

So, I really don't have to ask you if you're gutted.

It was fairly clear that you were, weren't you?

Finding it very difficult to take right now, so I'm a little bit

emotional about it, cos I gave it everything I had.

I respect everything that Lord Sugar said.

For me, it was a right decision.

I've not set up a business before,

it's the first business plan that

I'd ever written and, obviously, I've come very, very short.

So, gutted, made a mistake, but respect the decision.

OK. Let's have a look at this, then.

Lord Sugar and his advisors were desperate for you

to change your plan, but it wasn't to be.

My business plan is an online estate agency business, where the

vendors do their own viewings

and to get estate agents to advertise their properties on my website.

It don't work. It don't make sense.

On the one hand, you're saying,

"What I'm going to do is allow

"individuals not to use the

"estate agents and to actually sell,

"through my website, their property."

On the other hand, you're saying,

"by the way, I also want estate agents

"to come on the website. The same guys I'm screwing over here,

"I want you to come on and

"spend some money with me." I don't get it.

What's your plan B?

This is the one I'm passionate about

and the one I want him to invest in me.

-You've got no chance.

-I have.

-No, you don't.

-I definitely have.

LAUGHTER

He seemed to be very, very wedded

-to his idea.

-This is disappointing.

I believe this is the one that

-I know I can make a success.

-No, you can't.

It is a shame that you're still sitting here believing in it.

The right man, but the wrong plan.

-AUDIENCE:

-Aw!

That's a tough pill to take, although, to be honest,

they did try to tell you... How many times did they try to tell you?

I think I had a heads up, didn't I?

I think it got to the point where

I really did believe that the

idea that I had - and that's all it was, an idea -

was going to be something that was going to make me successful

and it got to the point, I'd gone so far through towards the end

and Lord Sugar was saying, "But what's the contingency?"

And I think I'd gone so far down that road

that I had to stick to my plan,

because that's what I'd written, I believed in it and I stuck by it.

And now, I've realised it's completely wrong. And, unfortunately,

it's a bitter pill to take, but, at the same time,

I've learnt a lot from the experience

and I'm probably not the right person to ask

if anybody wants a business plan writing!

Possibly not right now, no...

But listen, you've taken a huge leap up a learning curve

from this, not least in if people are hinting as strongly as that.

Were you shouting? Were you shouting at the telly?

I was. I really get you, Neil. I thought you were amazing.

I thought your self-belief and your passion and your determination...

I really thought you were terrific. I really did.

-Thank you.

-What you have... I know you.

You are that entrepreneur that has something

so deep inside them that really is going to be successful

and you're going to be brilliant one day.

-And you will find the right plan. Don't give up.

-Thank you.

CHEERING

APPLAUSE

I was a massive Neil fan. I still am a massive Neil fan.

I think that, whatever you do, you'll be really successful.

It was just frustrating watching you basically pitch the TV show

Cribs as a business idea.

LAUGHTER

"Guys, welcome to my house! Let me show you around!"

I don't think it would work. I don't think it would work for every...

Certainly not round my house.

It'd be like, "That's where I keep the clothes. On the floor."

LAUGHTER

"In the floordrobe." It wouldn't work for everyone.

And I was begging you just to have

any flash of inspiration at the last minute.

Like, they're going, "Plan B. Plan B. Plan B. Think of anything.

"Inflatable shoes, done!"

Because I think Lord Sugar would have gone for it.

A business plan with a tiny modicum of success to it, I think

he would have snapped it up.

Yeah. Andi?

Yeah, the unfortunate thing about your business plan

was just that sort of paradox of it.

It was like inviting chickens to come and eat at Nando's, do you know what I mean?

LAUGHTER

APPLAUSE

They're not going to go for it. They're not going to go for it.

You've been a huge player in this entire process,

right from the very start. Right from the start, you are making your presence felt.

I've come up with absolutely everything in this task.

I've come up with all the ideas today.

I was the main decision maker, that's why we won the task.

Behind every great project manager, there's Neil Clough.

I think we've probably done enough to win.

-You lost.

-Neil, have you been knocked down a few pegs now?

Absolutely not.

My motivation comes from when I was 18 years of age

and my dad passed away from cancer.

Dad wanted to push me

to be a football player.

'Neil's really stood out for me.'

He's very engaging, he's very warm

and can relate to everyone at quite a personal level.

Everybody should always have one key motivation.

Make sure that you do everything you can to go out and get it.

APPLAUSE

I have to tell you, they were very

-impressed with you, Neil.

-Thank you.

Very impressed indeed.

So you impressed the entire way through and also, by the way,

you give great Neil Clough speeches.

LAUGHTER

One of the features of the process was Neil Clough

saw what had to be done and Neil Clough did it.

That's what Neil Clough does.

LAUGHTER

You were very good at giving a pocket sized, punchy version of what

Neil Clough has done today, that has made that thing work for that team.

LAUGHTER

Well, let's have a listen to what Lord Sugar has to

say about you.

Neil's been a very strong candidate throughout,

demonstrating his determination to succeed.

However, Neil's greatest flaw is his inability to listen to sound

advice and to change his plan.

I'm very sorry that Neil's stubbornness

has resulted in him having to leave this process

just before the final task.

But he really gave me no other choice

but to fire him.

Would you say you're a better listener now?

I definitely think that's one thing I've learnt through the whole

process is sometimes, maybe, you don't know it better than

the people that you're speaking to and certainly not to Lord Sugar,

and Lord Sugar's aides that were trying to give me the signs.

But, you know, I regret not changing my plan now,

but, at the same time, all I can do is listen, learn and hopefully

take their advice and become bigger and better through doing it.

OK, 11 tasks ago, 16 candidates started the journey to become

Lord Sugar's business partner. Now, only two remain.

So, will it be Luisa or Leah who win Lord Sugar's

quarter of a million pound investment?

Dale, in that final, who would your money be on?

My money's on Leah, I think.

I think she's very intelligent, she's very professional.

I think she's quite a potent combination.

She is also a consistent overachiever

and I think she'll do well.

Matt?

Well, I like cakes and my lips are already luscious enough,

so I'm going to say Luisa.

Andi?

Yeah, I'm going to say Luisa.

I mean, I don't quite get the business plan.

I don't think Mr Kipling's got anything to worry about just yet.

LAUGHTER

You've been a terrific competitor all the way through this.

Through every task and everything you've done, whatever.

It's been a pleasure to have you here.

We want to give you something to take back to Cheshire with you

and it's always difficult to come up with a suitable gift.

And something that, you know,

for one thing, that you don't already have.

So we got you a musical gift, cos you definitely don't have this.

It's an album by Plan B.

LAUGHTER

APPLAUSE

Popped into my head.

Fine, fine urban artist whose work I think you'll enjoy.

And there's a hidden message...

LAUGHTER

..within that. 11 tremendous tasks, Neil, here are your highlights.

-Three, two, one.

-Action.

# Woo-hoo... #

Just for the last five minutes!

Collector's item.

Soft on the backside.

He's got your back, he's loyal.

-Are you powerful enough? Damn right!

-Yes, I am!

I like him.

That looks great!

First time I've ever driven a Ferrari.

I don't know whether I'm tired or excited.

There is nobody that I've met

that has a more competitive edge than myself.

Only nine more of you to get fired until I win.

-LORD SUGAR:

-A landslide victory.

-Quite a genuine guy.

-He's lovely.

It's called the sales orgasm. Three yes's.

Milkshakes, milkshakes.

-'Hello?'

-Moo!

HE LAUGHS

Ladies and gentlemen, Neil Clough.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

And, that's the end of You're Fired for this series.

Thanks to all of my guests.

Next Wednesday, however, we become You're Hired

and moved to BBC One as part of a two hour Apprentice special,

where Luisa and Leah face the final task

and we'll discover which one of them has won.

Convince me that you should be my business partner.

Is this not beautiful to you? This is beautiful to me.

What we've got is something out of Barbie.

-I think that's good.

-Do you?

I really like myself on there.

Master Bake?

LEAH: Facial fillers.

-Shaving cuts, needles.

-And skin peels.

-No.

-That wasn't a brilliant comment.

I'm going to pretend to be your mum.

I'm getting a little bit concerned.

Just needs to calm down.

I don't have time to discuss it any more.

Relax, look happy.

Can someone who's creative please find an ending that is strong?

How much trouble can they get in with cupcakes?

God's...

-SHE CRIES

-It wasn't awful.

Sorry.

And, also, you don't have to wait a whole week for more from

The Apprentice, because there's

a bonus programme called Why I Fired Them.

It's on tomorrow night at 10:35 on BBC One.

I'll be back for that two hour Apprentice final special

on BBC One next Wednesday, 17th of July, at 8pm.

That's an hour earlier than usual.

I can't wait, it's a very good one. Good night.
