Title: The Apprentice
Episode: Interviews and You’re Hired
Description: The final episode of this series sees Lord Sugar name his
business partner. The final four candidates are called to
the Institute of Directors in the City, where Lord Sugar
asks them to pitch their business concepts to him right
there on the spot. It is the first time that the contenders
hear what their competitors are putting forward, and Lord
Sugar makes it very clear that he has no idea what one
candidate is talking about. Then it is down to business with
Margaret Mountford, Mike Soutar, Matthew Riley and
tough-talking Claude Littner. Lord Sugar’s four advisors
scrutinise the candidates’ suitability to go into
partnership with the Boss. They face the ultimate grilling
as their CVs, personal statements and business plans are
criticised, picked through and blown apart. In the
boardroom, Lord Sugar hears his advisors’ feedback, and
then it is the final four’s turn to plead their case.
Three are fired, and Lord Sugar delivers his final ruling on
who will be his business partner. The Apprentice: You’re
Hired features the reaction of the winner, runner-up and
finalists, and hears from Lord Sugar himself about his
choice of business partner. They are joined by a panel
consisting of retail entrepreneur Jo Malone, actress and
presenter Denise Van Outen and comedian Jenny Eclair

Redgrave at the Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich, with a
glittering guest list of British Olympians past and present,
including Roger Black, Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson and Dame
Kelly Holmes. In this programme, the finalists cook their
starters, which will be tasted and scored by the Great
British Menu judges and veteran judge Richard Corrigan. But
before they get into the kitchen, the finalists face a huge
