The next 12 weeks will be the toughest of your life.
Lord Sugar is on the hunt for the next big thing.
This is an opportunity of a lifetime.
Battling for his backing,
some of Britain's brightest prospects.
Come on, boys. Look at that! Your life depends on it!
And then hit him. It's a deal worth fighting for.
I can sense a bit of friction. Absolutely.
Daniel, was that on you? No!
I was talking then.
Ah! 20 candidates...
Never been kicked in the balls by a goat,
to be honest with you. Ooh! ..12 tough tasks...
Eurgh! This is a complete and utter joke.
Just jump straight in.
..one life-changing opportunity.
You're fired. You're fired.
You completely messed it up.
You're fired.
Previously on The Apprentice... You are going to have
to source nine items associated with the Isle of Wight.
Run, run, run, run! Yeah, I've just got a couple of questions
that we're just struggling. ..Levi had a slow start...
Do you know what a bird's nest is? PHONE: No.
Ah!
..and Kieran turned on the charm.
15, and you can have your basket back as well.
SHE LAUGHS
Right, let's go. But a last-minute deal...
THEY SCREAM
We got the sweets!
..sealed Levi the win...
It's a total of £614.07.
Well done. ..leaving Harry...
You should have walked away and found another vendor.
..all at sea.
You're fired.
7pm.
Final nine. I can't call it right now.
I think there's a lot of good, strong candidates here.
Still nine people. Game's on.
Game is on. It feels like more of a fight now, I can't lie to you. Mm.
Everyone has to step up to the plate. Yes.
Like, you literally cannot hide.
PHONE BEEPS
Oh! Oh, text!
Oh, it's from Lord Sugar.
Oh, my God. What do you think it's going to be?
Let's play this.
Good evening. I'm sorry to interrupt your downtime,
but I wanted to let you know about your next task.
Oh. And what better way to do that than via the small screen?
Because being on screen is
what you lot are going to have to get used to. Oh, God.
In the UK, TV shopping...
Oh! Yes!
..is a £1 billion industry, and I have arranged
for you to sell live on one of
the leading shopping channels tomorrow.
You'll have to select a range
of products before producing and presenting your own slot.
The team that generates the most money from sales will win.
And on the losing team, at least one of you will be fired.
And by the way, I will be watching your every move.
Oh, no. Oh!
And because this is a sales task, I want to see you all selling.
All of us. All of us. There's nowhere to hide. Yep. So, good luck.
I'll see you in the boardroom in a couple of days.
So it's different this year. Everyone's selling.
Everyone's got to get on the telly.
And just to know that there's, like, thousands of people watching you.
Like, so there's no room for messing up.
Yeah. I can't wait. I've been looking forward to this one.
Good lad. I'm very excited.
8am.
I'm looking forward to this, like.
I'm excited. Eight hours till teams go live.
There's only one reason why I'm dressed up like this today, guys.
I'm ready. I'm ready to be PM.
Pushing for the part of project manager...
I sell people skills for a living
and, yeah, I'm ready to take on the role.
..Pascha.
I also want to put myself forward
as PM because this is where my experience lies.
As a consultant on social media, a big part of
that was live TV selling and live selling on TikTok.
I mean, because of your experience, Karishma,
I have to go with the skill set and I'm going to have to say for you.
Likewise, I feel exactly the same.
You've put together a very compelling case.
I do get it. But even with your knowledge,
it can be implemented with me being project manager.
That's just my opinion. Yeah, that's true as well. And I know it's hard
for me just because I'm really passionate about this.
To make this fair, then, as Pascha hasn't been PM,
I think this will be a good opportunity
for her to learn from you.
And I'm so, so keen to be project manager.
If you're happy with that.
As long as we win, I actually... I don't care whether I'm PM or not.
OK, let's do it, then. We'll rely on everyone's
experience and expertise, and share knowledge,
and that's what it's all about as well. Absolutely.
KARREN: Karishma clearly has experience in this field.
However, Lawrence and Priyesh were swayed by
the fact that Pascha hasn't been project manager
and would like to give it a go.
I mean, frankly, that's really not a good enough reason.
They should have gone with the more experienced person.
I'm excited.
Across the hall...
Who should I be handing the crown to for project manager?
..keen to call the shots, Conor. I'm happy to put myself forward.
I have experience in live stream
and obviously the selling in the market, I did quite well.
I would also like to put myself forward. I sell for a living.
I've proved myself selling in this process.
But ultimately, this is also about the products we select.
We have to keep in mind who's watching the show.
However, it does come down to sales techniques, tactics.
I have almost ten years' experience in selling.
Live selling at all or...?
I do a lot of video work... I think we're wasting a bit of time.
I have done social media live streaming before.
Right, shall go to a vote? Uh, Kieran.
Conor, it is. Conor, it is. Bravo.
I'm feeling confident. Today is about TV selling
and I have experience in live selling.
I wasn't going to hide in the shadows any longer.
I think the time to put yourself forward is now.
I've got to say, I'm happy that you're project manager,
because I think you're the best man for the job here.
Thank you.
I feel like the money is going to be in the beauty products, personally.
Putting forward her plan... And the kids and teens -
that's where we could probably sell the majority very quickly.
Yeah. ..first-time project manager, Pascha.
If we love the product
and we can relate to it, then we can sell it.
Guys, can I propose a bit of a selling strategy?
This is my personal strategy.
S stands for solve a problem. When you sell something,
if it doesn't solve a problem, it's harder to sell it.
E - sense of urgency, emergency and exclusivity.
Tell them there's only eight left.
R stands for relatability. Throw in an anecdote.
It's like, you know,
"My grandma has arthritis and this really helped her with this,"
or whatever. Variety - is it for men? Is it for women? Who is it for?
And finally, E - energy and excitement.
The more excited you are about a product...
You know, "I have this and it's great.
"And, you know, I would recommend this to my mum, blah, blah, blah."
Pascha was giving a very brief and broad strategy,
but what I gave them was specifics.
You can be PM just to tick it off the box, but this is my task.
So think strategically, think strategically.
So, yeah. OK. But, yeah, I mean, thank you for that, Karishma.
That's really good. That's great, with your experience... Yeah,
really good. ..bringing that in.
I do think homeware balances out with fitness as well.
So we have fitness and homeware. Yeah.
So you're going into two different lifestyles.
Stepping through roles with his team...
We will go on product selection with Kieran, Levi and I.
..sales expert Conor.
The deal of the day item is a jewellery item.
So, Rothna and Dan, I just... I see you guys going there.
But I just need to know from you, do we go for, like,
everyday jewellery that you can just throw on,
put aside, don't really care about the quality of it, or...?
Well, you guys are going to be selling it. What do you think?
I mean, I think having clarity is really important. Yeah.
Because obviously myself
and Dan can pick whichever item we think is best,
but ultimately it comes down to how much we can sell.
It's your call.
It's whatever you guys feel more comfortable with.
I would not buy anything in the thousands
on a TV shopping channel. You'd want to try it on.
I agree. Yeah, I would agree with the mid range.
I trust you to be, like,
if you think the lowest item, you can sell them...
Yep. ..lowest profit. If the highest item isn't that expensive,
you guys together will be able
to deduce what is the best thing to sell.
Mm-hm. Yeah.
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I do feel like the pricing strategy wasn't 100% clear.
Yes, mid-range was mentioned. I wrote down mid-range.
However, I do feel a little bit nervous picking
an item that Conor may not be happy with. But ultimately, it wasn't
the clearest of briefs. Because we don't know the prices,
what we'll do, myself and Dan,
look at the selection that we have there,
look at the cheapest item, highest item,
and then just ideally pick the one in the middle.
Yeah? Yeah.
Karishma, obviously you're very good at jewellery and you understand that.
So I would love you to sub-team lead on that side.
And I would like Lawrence to join you on that.
Would you want to go on the high
end side or would you want to go somewhere more affordable
so we sell more volume? Affordable. Make that your key word.
Cool. Let's get going. Good luck, guys.
11am.
Teams divide. Everyone in this process
has been project manager once - for the right task. Yeah.
And even though we're getting to the end,
I've waited for that right task.
I knew that one was coming. Yeah. And I'm ready.
Exactly. Sell, sell, sell.
I understand the principles of live streaming,
but ultimately it never gets easier, right?
Because I was, like, it is a one-way street.
There's not a lot to work with.
You have to back yourself, because there's going
to be numerous times in the ten minutes that you might be there
that you're going to lose your train of thought, something will go wrong.
And the real strategy to win this is how you bounce back.
You all right there, Kieran? Yes.
In Feltham, West London,
headquarters of shopping channel TJC...
..broadcasting deals to British living rooms 24 hours a day.
Hello, hello. Hello. Hi. How are you? Good, good.
How are you? First job for both teams...
We have a beautiful gold necklace. So what would be the recommended
selling price for this? 1,399.99.
..pick out a trinket to tempt buyers at home.
So the second one is a multi-sapphire bracelet.
Determined to sparkle... What is the gram weight of...?
Over 8g. 8g. ..Lawrence and Karishma.
So finally we have a tanzanite ring in gold.
And the obvious question in terms of the lower, medium
and higher value item, is this the medium one? Medium.
It would be between 599.99 to 399.99.
How many have you got of these in stock? 11. 11? 11? Right.
You know how sterling silver has the 925? Yes.
Does this have a 9K on it? It's 9K, yes.
So it's not a plated metal?
No, it's gold. It's 9K through and through? Yeah. Over 2g of gold.
Lovely. Tanzanite comes from an eight-mile
stretch in the Merelani region in Tanzania.
Has it had a big impact, because obviously
an eight-mile local area? And a positive impact, maybe, on...
Sure. So there's a lot of infrastructure that's been built
in the country because of this. And correct me if I'm wrong,
but the royal family actually owns a lot of tanzanite.
Correct. Yes. OK. Any other questions?
No. Um, so...
I think... Yeah, I actually don't
have any...have any more questions to ask,
but it's been great to see all of your products today.
Got my eye on that tanzanite ring.
I do think the other team could see that we were a bit more dominant.
Like, our voices were a bit more louder.
So he's going to see that we're clearly more interested in that.
I mean, we just have to get this ring.
I think both of us were very clear that that was our favourite.
Top choice. You know,
I can imagine you selling it because I think naturally...
I can imagine you selling it, mate. Yeah, yeah, yeah, both. Honestly.
Me on the history, you on the info. Yeah, yeah.
I've literally got goose bumps as you're speaking. Yeah.
Like, this is the one.
SHE LAUGHS
I don't know what to say. Neither do I.
I can't lie to you.
The way Karishma has a lot of confidence with her jewellery.
They obviously want the ring. Yeah. But that's the mid-range one.
I know. Obviously, Conor asked us to go for the mid-range one.
It's a tricky one, isn't it? It's a really tricky one, Dan.
I think, personally, it could be easier to sell the bracelet.
Plus, I don't know what Conor meant by medium range.
I think that might be the most sensible choice.
I think we've decided. Yeah. Bracelet it is?
Let's go with bracelet.
Southwest London...
Right. Vintage pendulum wooden wall clock.
I just see grandma.
..weighing up what else to sell on screen...
MACHINE PINGS
This is really boring. Yeah. ..Conor, Levi and Kieran.
Adjustable shoe dryer. You just turn it on,
pop your shoe off.
Pop it on. I've worked outside in construction.
Yeah. My boots get wet all the time, so this could be going to someone
working outside, walkers. So you would actually use this?
I weren't allowed my work boots in house because they stunk.
So this probably'd be, like, something you could do.
It's definitely usable. The Core Crusher Circuit Board.
The high price is 149.99. I've got my core exercise here.
That's it. Yep. Do you feel the burn?
Yeah, I do. Is it easier on your knees?
Would you feel confident pitching this on TV?
I think it's extremely pitchable.
Resistance.
Kieran and Levi believe
in the products that we've chosen, as do I.
My biggest concern now is that the guys don't focus on attention
to detail and the sales aspect enough,
but they are excited about
the product, so that does give me great hope.
Non-slip yoga mat...
Now, this gets me excited. Yeah. So, Kieran...
Kieran, I can imagine you with some sweatbands and legwarmers.
Love it, Kieran.
Mate, I'd give you a tenner for that right now.
On the other team... We need to focus on price.
I want us to pick one high-cost item... Yeah. ..which we sell a few
of, potentially, but obviously at a very good price.
..pushing for products to suit every pocket...
And then two lower-cost items,
which hopefully we can sell out, potentially. Yeah.
..project manager Pascha.
A table tennis set with retractable net.
The lowest price is 7.99,
so this ticks the box for the low-cost item.
OK, water flosser. Not going to lie. I have one of these at home.
Yeah. Oh!
OK. Well, you can see how quick that comes out.
The lowest price is 19.99. I mean,
obviously it does hit what I said in terms of the low-price item.
Agreed. OK. Noise-cancelling Bluetooth headphones
with air purification. Interesting.
This is a cool gadget. Is it noise-cancelling?
Can't hear me? Yeah, it is a very expensive product.
The highest price is 449. So I think the
noise-cancelling Bluetooth headphones... Yep.
..and the table tennis set. Yeah. And then you've got the flosser.
Agreed. I'm really glad we stuck to the structure.
Yeah, I think we did a good job.
2pm.
Hey. Hi. How are we doing? How are you guys?
Soon, teams will go live to the nation.
It's your all-in-one gym.
I saw something in it, and I'm going to put my full backing into this.
Premiering their chosen products...
Personally, this is something
that my granny would buy just to keep herself active.
..Kieran, Levi and Conor. But I stand over it,
that when it's demoed and when it's sold well,
it could actually be a real reward for us.
Yeah. Mm-hm.
We then picked out a portable shoe dryer.
OK.
How does it work, then, exactly?
So you bang your shoes on here, on t'end.
Will it fully dry or...? What's it... What's it doing?
Is it to dry the shoes? Is it to make them smell nice?
It dries the shoes, but it's also odour-eliminating.
There we go.
I mean, honestly, never heard of it.
Bit of a peculiar one. Maybe men will buy it more. I don't...
Yeah, I mean, look, I personally wouldn't
even think I needed something like this.
Yes. I'm more torn towards this just because my experience
of having wet feet. Again, in construction,
I stepped in a lot of puddles, even up to my waist at times.
Well, I mean, I had a few
concerns about all the products that they selected.
Obviously the shoe dryer, I couldn't really understand
whether it was a deodorant, freshens up the shoes.
I didn't really understand what it was.
So I'm a little bit concerned about that item.
We then picked out a product that Kieran liked.
Yoga mat. Yoga mat. With hand-held... Straps.
Yeah. What do you think, Dan?
I mean, a yoga mat's a yoga mat, isn't it?
Across the hall...
We have the cheap option which is a table tennis set.
..the big reveal... Is it amazing? No.
Is it something that we can make amazing? Yeah.
That's with us. ..of Pascha's products.
Now we have the more expensive option.
Noise-cancellation headphone set. Do you want to pop it on?
Yeah. Go on.
As soon as these clip in, the air starts coming out as well.
It should tuck in. Yeah. There's, like, a...
Have I got...? I've got it round the wrong way.
Better to get it wrong now than later.
Yeah, it's a little bit...
Should I try? Tricky. It's about finding it in the right place.
But they do just attach magnetically.
The best way to do it is actually just show it like this.
Priyesh has been given
the headphones to demonstrate and sell live on air.
I mean, he couldn't fit the air purifier on the actual headphones.
He didn't quite know how to turn them on.
I mean, he's going live in less than an hour.
I hope he does a lot better when he's actually on air.
Otherwise it's going to be unwatchable.
It's a little bit "Terminatory" once it's on.
But ultimately, anything
that does add air purification... It's an add-on.
It's not the product.
So this is what we got. We've got, um, a bracelet.
For Conor's team, bling signed off...
I trusted you, I gave you full autonomy.
So I can't not back you guys.
..next decide who sells what.
Kieran, you were obviously drawn towards the yoga mat.
Still am. I think you're happy to sell that. Levi - shoes.
Shoe dryer. You got the story. I'm going to lead on the circuit board.
And, Dan, you and Rothna, the jewellery item. My...
And then I'm going to...
My only concern is I have a selling background.
Do you want me on one of the higher-priced items?
I think you were very vocal about being comfortable with this.
You were... It's your call. I'm putting it out there. No, no.
Sorry. No, no, I'm... I'm not saying. I'm just asking.
Would you rather me on higher or stick to the mat?
No, I would stick to the mat. I was like, "I've got this...
Let's move on. "..Dan's got the jewellery."
I feel like Conor doesn't trust me.
I've got the lowest item,
but you watch me pull the best figures out today.
I will win.
Super. So, guys, let's go out there,
have fun, good energy, and let's go make some sales.
Let's go. Let's do this! Let's do this!
Five minutes to go.
Let's do this. Smash it.
Handed to the teams... Gosh, it's nerve-racking.
It's scary. ..two of the channel's premium sales slots.
So we look at this camera? Look at this camera, always.
Watching from home... Right, Joe.
Let's, uh, let's tune in.
..Lord Sugar and grandson Joe.
Pascha, can you hear me?
I can hear you. Going live first...
Coming to you in ten... ..Priyesh and Pascha.
Five seconds, guys. ..five, four... Stand by.
..three, two, and one. Both mics are live.
Vision next. In vision.
Good afternoon, folks. Ah!
So, imagine this.
You're after noise-cancelling headphones.
Well, I've got the solution for you.
He's a bit robotic, isn't he? Poor old Priyesh. Yeah, a little bit.
Now, imagine me this - running... I'm running.
Can you hear me?
Am I saying things? What's your...? What am I saying?
You can't hear me? Oh, wow.
I've got no reason to want to buy these right now.
Give them a bit of energy.
PASCHA: How does it feel? Big energy, guys.
It feels really good. OK, so this here,
this is going to eliminate any dirty particles in the...in the sky.
LORD SUGAR: They haven't sold anything.
I wonder if the gallery's screwed it up.
PASCHA: Honestly, I just feel like you can't go wrong.
It's comfy...
You're leaving them, guys. Pick them up, say something.
It's a futuristic product. Have you seen anyone outside wearing this?
You're not going to get this at any supe-...
It's also a futuristic product.
Look how futuristic this looks.
You've been on this.
You've not even had a customer holding.
Do something about it. Guys, we haven't sold a single one.
Tell them it's the final price drop, we're dropping.
There's a big price drop down.
You guys are getting treated. We're going down to 249.99.
We've got one caller on the line. We've got one caller on the line.
Someone's in, finally! Oh, my God, we've got one.
We've got one person in. PASCHA: It's a stunning product.
Wow. Let's just have a little look at it again.
LORD SUGAR: Oh, two sold now.
Maybe that's to his mum.
JOE CHUCKLES
Wow... We're going on to our next item now, guys.
So, look, you've got five seconds.
I couldn't even hear anything you were saying. Wow.
Transition to the next product, please.
Transition to the next product.
I'm going to go get one now. Me, too.
We're going to our next item now.
SHE EXHALES
KARREN: Look, I've done this task a number of times
and usually it's so chaotic
in the gallery, you can't hear yourself think.
But here, it was utter silence.
No information has got to be worse than too much information.
Priyesh and Pascha must have thought the earpiece
wasn't working because they weren't talking.
Your mics are live.
Just to remind you, your mics are live. Keep going.
Mics are live, Pascha. Keep talking.
We've got a flosser.
Honestly, I'm so happy to say that I've got two of these at home.
You just cannot go wrong with it.
Do you want one of those? I could get you one. Uh, no.
Your grandmother's got an electric one.
Plug it in the mains and it blasts out like a...
A jet washer. Like a jet washer, it is. A mini jet washer.
It's 29.99. It is such a cheap price for this.
I'm not joking.
My dentist would probably charge me about 150 to 200.
That's in her experience. Make sure she...
Make sure you mention "your experience". Not anybody else's.
Ever since I started using this, my plaque has reduced so much.
Potentially. All of this, you've got to... Listen.
You're making a lot of claims here.
Now, I've had probably... I've had mine for about two years now.
The difference it has made.
Pascha, I need you to say
that your experiences may differ with this product.
You... Honestly, my experience with this - it's been life-changing.
"Obviously, your experiences may vary," Pascha.
I need you to say that now. You need to say it.
Everyone in here is saying it.
You have to say, "Your experience may differ."
But everyone... Everyone's experience is different.
And obviously, some people,
you know, it might not be for them.
We got there in the end.
I do want to show you guys how to use it as well.
They're going to use a salad.
So I'm just going to put some food in my teeth...
..and just show you.
LORD SUGAR LAUGHS
I mean, don't do that.
Put it in your mouth, guys. I did just spray my fa-...
My face.
How can you demo that?
You need a...you need a stooge, like Priyesh.
Everyone that has got one,
you're going to absolutely love it.
And thank you. Thank you so much.
PRODUCER: Your mic is out.
Next to the table...
I can't believe I sprayed my face.
..Karishma and Lawrence.
We're going live in three, two, and one.
In vision.
What's up, Lawrence? Karishma - good to see you.
It's nice to see you. Long time, no see. And hello. And hello.
Oh, Lawrence. And we've got a whirlwind of
a product today for you.
This is the portable, at-home table tennis set.
I like table tennis.
I haven't played for ages. I'm a good table tennis player.
It is 168cm long. So we've put it on a little table here.
Guys, there's no-one calling in.
Get excited. Come on, play it. Lots of energy.
My dad would absolutely love this. My dad would go crazy for this.
He gets so competitive with his friends on a game of table tennis.
Play it, guys.
Show them how to play the... Guys, play it. Pick up the bats.
9.99. You get really, really, really excited.
Guys, play the actual ping-pong.
Play it. I don't know why you're not playing. Come on.
It's a deal. Game on. First to three. OK.
Whoa. I don't know why you're being so aggressive with it, Lawrence.
Like, it's a tiny table.
I don't think Lawrence should apply for the Olympics,
table tennis Olympics, somehow.
Look at this box.
This all packs up into a box this big.
Guys, we don't have long left.
I think you should keep playing the game.
They started buying it when you played the game.
Let's play.
Let's play with each other and let's have a great time.
I mean, this is... This is fun. This is legitimately fun.
12, 14 sold, guys. They're pushing now.
Keep playing.
We are up to 12 buyers.
We are going up and we don't have long left.
We've only got a couple minutes. Right, here we go.
Could do it in the boardroom. JOE LAUGHS
Tim one end and Karren the other end, and I could be the umpire.
I've had a great time. So have I, Lawrence.
This has been fun. You know who I feel bad for?
Anyone that missed out. Right.
Let them know what they're doing, guys.
You're moving on to your final product.
The final... It's the ring.
OK, let's walk over here, Lawrence, so we
can really get to business here. I'm impressed by this.
And I can't wait for you to talk about these stones.
Let me shock you right now,
because in this entire building, in our warehouse back there,
there's only 11 of these.
There's no-one on the lines at the moment.
I think they need to be a bit more personal with it now.
Guys, be a bit more personal with it now. Why would you get it?
Jaipur is actually the gemstone capital of the world.
A lot of incredible gemstones come from there, but not tanzanite.
Keep it personable to you as well.
Would you buy this for your partner? Karishma, would you want this?
Tanzanite only comes from one country on
the globe, and that is Tanzania.
Can you please just push the personal element?
People want to know why you would get it.
There is only an eight-mile strip in Tanzania,
it's called tanzanite, where you can get,
or mine, this stone. Bloody boring.
It's the same bloody thing all the time.
When this is mined, I was really curious to know...
We've not sold a single one.
PRODUCER: 50 seconds. 50 seconds, guys. "You will regret it
"if you don't get it for your wife.
"You'll regret it if you don't get it for YOURSELF."
The actual first moissanites
that we found on Earth came from an asteroid.
It's unbelievable. It's unbelievable.
I don't get this. Why would you keep saying it all the time?
PRODUCER: Five, four, three, two...
I hope someone... PRODUCER: ..and one. Rolling.
Someone really makes that right decision.
Thank you so much. Oh, my God. None sold.
No.
LORD SUGAR TUTS
Hi, guys. That was tough. I'm just...
I am so gutted that we didn't sell any of the ring
because I feel like that is such a gorgeous item,
so it just shocks me.
Karishma said that jewellery is her thing.
She knows what she's doing.
So I had so much faith to at least sell one.
It was too much history talk and not enough pushing.
I'm just... I am so gutted. We're just going to have to see tomorrow.
6pm.
All it needs to be is better than the other team.
Yeah. That's not going to be hard, is it, boys?
Preparing for the air...
So what's going out live? This screen? Yes.
OK, cool. ..Conor's team. Right, we're going live.
Three, two, and one. Your mic is live.
Vision next. In vision.
Hello and welcome back.
As you can see down here, we have a beautiful, purple, aesthetic
Core Circuit workout-from-home machine. Right.
We're going on at 149 now.
We are going live with
the product at 149.
This can be yours for 149.
Con, we've got no callers, mate. I need energy.
I am going to call in my colleague Dan.
Dan, are you...?
This is Dan. Hi, everyone.
Oh, my God. Look who's here. Dan the Man's turned up.
Callers, what I want to do is give
a demonstration of this.
Show the camera the item.
Work out from home.
So what I'm going to do is - this is portable.
You can pop it into your house at home.
Dan is looking very confused.
Imagine a gym in your house.
Dan looks very static.
Let's get some movement.
I'm going to get you to pop down on your knees
and do a plank for me.
We also have a timer on here, so
I'm going to set a 30-second timer
for you to hold your plank
for 30 minutes. 30 minutes!
JOE LAUGHS
Strong core!
Good work, Dan.
And now I'm going to join you as well
for a bit of Pilates on the same side.
We've got zero callers, lads. I need Dan to really get into it.
It is high resistance. There is a timer on there.
Yeah. Dan, show us your little pearly whites.
You're having fun, you're breaking a sweat.
We've got one caller on the line. Do not lose it.
We have a caller on the line,
so I just do want to explain to them.
Dan's gone. He's knocked himself out, Dan.
He's gone to have a rest.
And let me tell you, this is not easy.
PRODUCER: Heading to the break.
Three, two, one.
And thank you so much, folks.
Rolling.
TIM: Conor was making it look really hard.
If I was watching that, I would think I'd have to be
an Olympic gymnast to be able to purchase it.
And that may put me off.
Do you want me to come in now? I'll call you.
You'll call me in. Cool.
Hoping the bracelet they chose will shine...
Hi, Dan. Can you hear us? Yeah. Good man.
..Dan and Rothna.
PRODUCER: Vision next. In vision.
OK. Well, good evening, everyone, and welcome back.
Where's he looking? He's looking over there.
It's one-of-a-kind piece,
and it's really something
for every occasion.
Lots of smiles at the camera.
If you're thinking of going out
for a birthday, a party...
Look down the camera lens, mate.
Now, I am going to invite
my colleague Rothna.
She's going to come and try this bracelet on.
So I'm just going to take the bracelet off here, clip it in.
Let me just pop this in. Yep. Oh.
You're fumbling around.
He is struggling with it. You're struggling.
Apologies. That's all right. All you've got to do is clip it in.
And there's two little clasps here. There you are.
Done. Price drop, 119.
Oh, what's that? I hear we've got...
We've got an incredible price drop coming up. 119.
Sold one. And we've just sold one on the line.
So who have we sold it to? Jamie.
We've just sold... So, Jamie,
you've bought yourself this beautiful, beautiful bracelet.
And I really hope that you enjoy this.
Good lad. Really well done, mate.
I think they must have chivvied him up.
He's warmed up a little bit. Yeah.
Two-minute countdown.
OK, we've got two minutes left.
So what I'm going to do, I'm going
to pop it on your wrist once more. Yep, go for it.
Oh, two sold. There you are, look. Thelma.
Thelma's just bought one.
And I've just heard that Velma
has just bought another one of these bracelets.
Thank you so much, Velma.
We only have five left in stock.
Five left in stock. Push, push, push.
We have just five more left in stock.
And I can see that we've sold quite a few.
Four gone now. Four! Five. Five!
Jean's just bought. "Thank you, Jean."
Jean. OK. Thank you, Jean.
We've just seen that you've come through on the call here.
Congratulations on your...on your new purchase.
We really hope that you love it.
And I'm going to hand over to my colleagues for the next show.
Well done. Wow.
You did outstanding. Thank you. Next on screen...
PRODUCER: We're going live in three, two, and one.
..sales supremo Kieran.
Your mic is live. Vision next. In vision.
Your mic is up.
Hello and welcome. My name is Kieran
and today I've got these luxury yoga mats.
Now... A mat? You can only say so much about a mat.
What can you say about a mat?
They come with...
..uh, a little strap like this.
For a real estate salesman,
he's not setting the world alight here at the moment.
Kieran, we can't see the mat. Get on the ground.
Get on the ground. Get on the mat.
Can he hear us? Kieran, nod if you can hear us.
Brilliant. But just more energy. Let's get into it.
Yeah. There we go.
And then you whack it over your shoulder.
You can walk anywhere you want with that.
This is a hard sell.
A real hard sell.
Kieran, talk about how comfortable it feels on you.
Goodness me.
Is there some yoga, some gymnastics, some ab?
I mean, what's nice is the grip on it.
If you're doing a little workout,
you know...
He's in trouble here, isn't he?
He really is.
Keep talking.
If you're one of them people that want to wake up
and get that morning stretch...
Kieran, we're going to do final price with Levi in.
We're going to do final price now. Ready?
My colleague Levi is going to come and show you
how to do some yoga.
How are we doing, everybody? My name's Levi.
Oh, here he is.
Oh, one minute. Final price. It's the final price?!
Levi. Well, I'll tell you what, if the final price is coming,
I'm going to have to knock out some press-ups.
If he does the press-ups... Are we ready?
..I want everyone on the lines now.
This is the one. One, two, three... Get on the phone.
9.99. ..four, five... Final price...
Push them. Ten seconds. ..to buy these now.
Come on. Keep talking. Three...
..two and one.
All right. Your mics are out.
Dead horse to flog. A dead horse to flog.
Very good.
All right, stand by for your mic.
Last shot for Conor's team...
..Levi's chosen gadget.
Three, two, one. Your mic is live.
Which camera am I looking at? And your mic is live.
Oh... How are we doing, everybody? And welcome. I'm Levi.
Oh, here we go again.
This is a shoe dryer.
Talk about how much your missus will love that.
She'll be so impressed with you.
I know when after me
and me missus have been on the razz around town,
a bit of a smelly shoe,
all I have to do is just pop it on.
You'd put me off, listening to you, mate. You really would.
We're going to show you how this is done.
Kieran, we can't see your head. If you're going to come in,
come in. Put some water in. How to buy.
Pick up the phone and call the number.
There's two people... Yeah. That's it. He's got it.
He's got it. We just need to trust him.
Odour is eliminated. Final two minutes
starting now. OK, we've sold one.
I were in construction,
and my feet were absolutely stinking.
LORD SUGAR LAUGHS
And do you know what else happened?
I got athlete's foot from it.
I know - it's minging.
Got a ratchet jaw. Not sure about athlete's foot.
But the thing is, you're not just
going to get athlete's foot from
just working outside in construction.
It's something you didn't think you'd need,
but you'll use it every single day.
Guys, relax. Just relax.
My girlfriend really needs these sorted.
They stink. Oh, do they? Oh!
Cheers, buddy. Thank you.
I'll put them on here for you.
This is torture, this is.
Think about all the shoes that you can have dried.
Any kind of, um...
You know, living in the UK, bad weather happens all the time.
Just under 25 seconds. You got high heels.
You got your gym trainers.
Got some more trainers. Right.
I'm getting fed up now.
How long more is this going on for?
You've got 20 seconds left! Get on the phones.
We're just being very chaotic.
We're being very chaotic right now.
PRODUCER: Five, four, three... Let's just relax.
We want them. Go on! Do it, do it, do it!
Rolling the break. Do it! Your mic is out. Thank you very much. Ah!
Is that it? Thank God for that.
THEY CHEER
Come on. Mate, really good. Well done, lads. High five.
That was hard. Look, did we sell as much as we wanted to?
No. I am extremely disappointed.
That was chaotic. The failure of the task,
if we do lose tomorrow in the boardroom,
it's got to come down to the PM. People with no sales
experience have gone on and sold. Conor didn't.
Let's get out of here. OK. Let's go. Let's go.
Tonight, back to the house.
Tomorrow, final sales revealed in the boardroom.
I'm a little bit nervous today because obviously
didn't sell any of my deal-of-the-day pieces.
So a little bit upset
and scared to what's going to happen in the boardroom today.
I brought Conor back to the boardroom last week.
He's definitely going to bring me back
if we lose. It's game on. I'm ready for a war.
I feel like I'm walking into
a lion's den with nothing to defend myself with.
It is a live TV selling challenge. I'm not sure if I sold anything,
so that leaves me in a pretty vulnerable position.
You can go through to the boardroom now.
So, TV shopping.
Team Alpha, I believe that,
Karishma, you wanted to be the project manager, is that right?
Yes, Lord Sugar. But then again, Pascha,
you haven't been project manager, have you?
No, Lord Sugar. You kind of like ducked it...
I was waiting for the right task.
I haven't got experience live selling.
However, I do have a big following on TikTok,
and I do have a social media presence.
So, you know, I just felt like my skills and abilities
would be best for this sort of task. OK.
So, Pascha's passion versus Karishma's charisma?
Yeah, that. And I think we worked really well together.
OK, so product selection.
The structure that I went in with is,
I want a high-cost item and a low-cost item.
If we can sell just a few of the high-cost items,
potentially, that could be the reason that we win the task.
So what you ended up with was the headphones,
the water flosser, and table tennis. Yeah.
So where was you, Karishma, while all this was going on?
So Lawrence and I spoke with the jewellery expert.
We were also joined with Rothna and Dan.
We kind of were competing to get the product we wanted.
We expressed our interest in the mid-range item.
You mean the ring? The ring, the tanzanite ring.
I was watching you selling that stuff.
Apparently, there was 11 in stock, or something like that.
Is that right? Yeah. Yeah.
There still is 11 in stock... There is. ..also at the moment,
yeah... Yeah. ..cos I'm afraid you didn't succeed.
And then one of the reasons I think you didn't succeed was because,
in my opinion, you missed out the point
of who you were selling to.
It should be love.
It should be about, you know, a gift for somebody.
Instead, you start giving them a geographic description
of where it comes from.
Who gives a shit about that?
Not exactly Lord of The Rings there, my friend.
Not quite, no. I mean, in fairness, Karishma knew a lot about the rings,
and I think there was a bit of scarcity
because it only comes from a very small area.
Hmm. Anyway, I think the first people on your team was you,
and you with the headphones, right? Correct. OK.
And in the gallery was them two. Correct. Yeah.
Yeah. And silence I heard.
You sat there doing nothing for a while.
Karishma, you were close to the mic. Do you agree with that?
Erm... So we were in...
Was you getting much feedback initially?
Initially, to be honest, my earpiece was cutting out every five...
No, it wasn't cutting out. It wasn't cutting out. They weren't talking.
Oh. OK, well... Never mind noise-cancelling headphones -
it sounded like you must have had noise-cancelling microphones
in there.
Anyway, let me come on to the flosser.
Yep. I was very confident selling it just because I have it at home.
And I did want to have food there as well, which unfortunately...
I saw that - you had some spinach.
You stick some in your mouth, right,
and then you get the machine, blow on it
and then you take it out of your mouth with your fingers again.
Yeah, it was a bit of a... Very, very, very good. Yeah.
Yeah, the water power coming out of that thing... It was powerful.
Yeah. ..I could use it to clean my car.
Yeah. Yeah. And then there's the ping-pong.
I liked that ping-pong thing.
I was thinking of setting it up in here for me and...
LAUGHTER Let's have a go. ..Tim to play.
Could work!
You sold 28 of those, actually.
Yeah. Anyway, there we are.
So, Team Eclipse...
Now, Conor, you ended up with what I will call the core machine,
yoga mat... Correct. Boring. And the shoe dryer.
Unusual item. Right?
So you start off, Conor, with the... The Core Circus.
The Core Circus. It looked like you were having an argument
with an ironing board, actually. Yeah, I definitely...
Look, I came in with high energy and passion,
and I was hoping to shift that by using my energy.
Then you call upon Dan, he comes in,
done a few bits and pieces, and then went off.
THEY LAUGH
We were... We were... We were doing a couples' workout at one stage.
I was doing Pilates and Dan was doing some core exercises,
so... Yeah. I do... I do think it was sellable.
I just probably didn't do myself justice.
Mmm. Moving on from there, then. So, you had the... Yeah. ..bracelet.
You looked like you were putting on handcuffs at one stage -
I thought you'd lost the key.
You were fumbling around.
Dan did very well, in terms of his engaging with the customers
and saying their names, actually saying it, which was a key part.
Yeah, it was quite clever, that, when you said,
"Thank you for the order," and all that.
Oh, they got some orders, did they?
Oh, yeah. They got some orders for it. Yeah.
I was extremely proud of Dan for putting himself
out of his comfort zone, almost, and really applying himself.
He exceeded probably all of our expectations.
Oh, there you go. Compliments there, Dan!
That's very kind. Compliments. All right.
Moving on, we've got Kieran on the...
Yoga mat. ..yoga mat. And that,
I mean, I've got to tell you - that was painful, my friend.
Painful. Did you say, "I'll do that one"?
I said I would do that one.
But I also offered to take a high-end item as well.
It looked like a thick doormat to me. It was... Yeah.
As yoga mats go, it wasn't bad. It's a star seller. Yeah.
Can I just add, Lord Sugar,
I expected that the boys would probably pick an item
that they were personally really confident in selling?
Kieran's great at selling, so I was pretty shocked
that he was just going to be selling the mats,
but then he was confident he could sell them in large quantity.
OK, well, moving on,
we went to the most unusual item, the shoe dryer,
which Levi took the role. That's right, Lord Sugar.
Yeah. That's correct. I mean, it's an unusual item.
In fact, I bought one for my wife for Christmas,
so she's going to be delighted with that, I'm sure,
when she opens it up.
So... I think she's going to throw that straight back at you.
Yeah. I mean, you were putting shoes on the wrong way round,
pouring water in trainers.
To be fair, Lord Sugar... Sorry. And then Butch Cassidy here
comes running in at the end to help you out, you know?
It were quite hard to get my bearings,
to be fair, Lord Sugar. It were...
In t'gallery, it sounded like somebody ate the microphone
and people just shouting and then...
Yeah, it was hard to concentrate,
trying to get a point across whilst getting a load in the ear.
Mmm.
Right. OK. Well...
..it's that time now. Let's have a look and see how we did, shall we?
So...
..a thing you should know about TV selling
is that you may have expectations of what you think you sold,
but as you know, people change their minds, right?
So I've now got the real confirmed figures from the shopping channel.
So, Tim, can you tell me the final results of your team?
Mm-hm. Well, you mentioned a number of sales have been made,
but unfortunately not all of those sales went through,
including the one high-priced item of the Core Crusher
that was almost sold, but somebody pulled out.
But they still managed to sell 18 products,
giving them a total sales on the day
of £773.82.
Well done, everyone. Right. OK, good.
Karren, same question. How did your team get on?
Well, unfortunately, not all of their sales went through either,
including one of the high-priced headphones.
And their highest-priced item, Alan, the ring, you know,
they didn't sell any of those at all.
But they did still manage to sell 40 items across the hour totalling
£893.60.
Right.
Well done, Team Alpha.
Your first time as a project manager and you pulled it through.
Yeah. OK, make your way back to the house.
I'll see you on the next task, OK?
THEY THANK LORD SUGAR
Good luck, guys.
Stop! Oh! Yes! That was my worst task as well!
So proud of you guys. Well done.
OK. Well... So go away, have a chat amongst yourselves.
Come back and we'll decide who's leaving.
OK? Off you go. Thank you, Lord Sugar.
Thank you.
Big item made the difference, didn't it?
Well, no. I mean, they sold 40 items and they sold 18.
Hmm.
Oh, my God! You smashed it, Pascha! I cannot tell you how relieved I am.
Obviously I've had my two wins as sub-team, but that's not enough.
I wanted to step forward and deliver.
One more task and then we're in the final five.
Yeah. We just need to get there now.
One of the things that I did say in strategy
is, like, bringing high energy was great,
but I think, ultimately, what you two failed to do
was to harness it in the correct way.
We sold, mate. Yeah, and I accept I didn't.
You guys only sold two units each.
I had a rolled-up bit of foam, mate.
Conor sold nothing. Kieran didn't sell a lot
and he's supposed to be an amazing salesperson.
And quite frankly, I don't really know what Levi is good at
other than being a great guy.
The one person I was disappointed in, Kieran, is you.
I have to say, I've worked with you... Yeah, you go for it, girl!
..and I thought you were great, but when you were presenting,
I honestly thought you'd do a bit better, just because...
We failed the task for lack of instruction and no sales.
Kieran loves to deflect and he loves to say he can't do something
at the last moment. He said he'd take a high-ticket item
just as we were heading out the door.
As he sounded enthusiastic about the yoga mat, I gave it to him.
Then he said, "Maybe not, I can't do yoga."
The reality is, is that we didn't make enough sales.
It's down to selling. I mean, myself and Rothna sold the most.
And I know it wasn't loads,
but we sold high-ticketed items and sold multiple of them.
I would have thought with lower-ticketed items,
we could have sold a few more.
The failure in this task lies with project manager Conor and Kieran.
They're polar opposites, they don't work well together,
and it showed in this task.
PHONE RINGS
Yes, would you send the candidates in, please?
Well, you lot lost by £120,
which...is not a lot of money.
Now, Alpha sold 40 products and you sold 18 only.
So, Conor, the Core machine that you demonstrated,
the last time the professional presenter did it,
they sold 55. Yeah, so... So, my plan with the Core Circuit Yoga
was two target audiences - the older or maybe new to fitness
and then the more experienced user of fitness, like myself.
I demonstrated it as someone who was maybe avid in fitness
and wants to use it to enhance their workouts,
so maybe after a cardio session.
I think it implied you had to be very fit to use it.
Yeah. OK.
Anyway, I'm not surprised you were sweating
because you hadn't sold any!
Yeah, definitely. I did give it my all,
I did give it my energy and I hold my hands up -
I'm disappointed as PM that I didn't sell one item.
I mean, Dan walking in, it looked like you called in a bloke from IT,
you know? Now, then.
Rothna and Dan, the bracelets -
you only sold three.
They usually sell 21 in that slot.
I am disappointed that we only ended up selling three of them.
I did really believe in the product and I hoped it'd come across. Mmm.
If you'd have got the ring and sold three of them... Yeah.
..like you sold three of the bracelets, you would have won.
So we didn't... So why didn't you get the ring?
We thought maybe Conor might find the ring a bit too expensive.
He was quite clear about asking for a mid-range item.
But...when I asked for numbers in the brainstorm,
he didn't give any numbers. So mid-range...
My mid-range could be very different to your mid-range.
Your role was to pick deal of the day...
What she's trying to say is that we was left to our own devices
to pick what we thought was the most sensible item
that we could sell on TV.
But that's why you were placed on that team.
And you picked the cheapest? Yeah.
Now, moving on, the yoga mat -
this company has sold 390 in the last session.
You sold six - and you say you are a super salesman.
I say I'm a salesman, yeah, absolutely.
Well, you didn't sell many, did you?
So I did offer to swap to the high-end item. I was told no.
Were you not extremely enthusiastic about the yoga mat?
I said I could... I never said I wasn't, mate.
I'd done the sit-ups. I'd done a few press-ups. Exactly. Levi was...
Levi come in to perform on the mat right at the end.
You could have sent him in earlier.
It were a bit painful to watch, so I looked at t'gallery...
You were painful to watch, my friend.
You were really painful to watch all the way around,
including the shoe dryer thing.
I mean, what a bloody product that is.
And do you know what? They usually sell 300 in a session.
300! I'd never heard of it. And you sold three.
I did try to explain about the shoe drying properties,
but when I had somebody, like, t'team shouting in my ears,
I had Kieran walking towards me, it were very distracting for me.
Well, one of the comments from a viewer was that,
"This is a joke, I'm flabbergasted. I can't watch anymore."
They tuned out, right?
And I have to say, I was flabbergasted also.
I think you were diabolical.
I do believe that, on reflection, it is...
It's actually time.
I've won most of t'tasks, Lord Sugar... I won project manager.
No, you didn't win them. You didn't win them. You didn't.
You was on winning teams. I think I had a good involvement. So... So...
You know what? Levi, it is with regret,
you're fired. OK.
Thank you for the opportunity, Baroness Brady, Lord Sugar, Tim.
Thank you. If you ever need an urn, get in touch with me.
Yeah. Thank you. Take care.
Best of luck. Thanks.
Conor, which two people are you bringing back into this boardroom?
Based on what I've heard, I'm going to bring back Kieran
and I'm going to bring back Dan.
Right. OK,
Rothna, you can go back to the house.
Thank you, Lord Sugar.
WHISPERS: Good luck.
OK, you three gentlemen step outside.
And when you come back in,
we'll see who is going to leave, OK?
Thank you. Thank you very much.
I can see why you made a decision to exit Levi from the process.
Yeah. I mean, on this particular task,
it was the worst TV selling I've ever seen in this whole process.
Painful. The worst. Painful.
Anyway, Kieran - I mean, he's a chirpy chappie.
He chirped a lot, but he didn't make the sales.
The important thing on this task was to convert the products
to something that the audience wanted,
and unfortunately, he made such a hash of that mat,
nobody bought anywhere near the numbers that you said
you got from the channel themselves.
Dan the Man.
Obviously, they sold three bracelets.
Had they instead have chosen the ring and sold three rings,
they would have won. I mean, he was with Rothna when they picked it.
Maybe they didn't engage the buyers as well as they could have.
Conor. Well, Conor's a great talker.
He emphasised his ability in front of the camera,
but he wasn't that good behind the camera.
Unfortunately, a lot of this does rest on his shoulders. Mmm.
PHONE RINGS
Could you send the three of them in, please?
So, on this task, Conor,
you were the project manager.
You've been a project manager twice, right?
And regretfully, you lost twice.
Mmm. Why have you brought these two back in, then?
When I made my selection,
I reviewed the entire process that we've made it to here.
When it comes to Kieran, in fairness to Kieran,
Kieran has grabbed the bull by the horns
and he's really applied himself.
But at times, he's been called difficult to work with
and disruptive.
So in terms of looking for your next Apprentice,
I just don't know if he would be the correct candidate.
Everyone works with people differently.
Correct. Yeah. And that's not my decision to make,
but that's just my perspective.
When it came to Dan, Dan was slow to get into the process
and maybe didn't apply himself every week to the extent
that me personally has.
Well, I mean, this was a selling task.
Myself, I sold £300 worth of stuff.
They sold £60 between them both.
And I think throughout the whole of this process,
and I know it took me a little while to settle into it,
but this has been a big learning curve for myself.
I've developed a lot of skills, I've learned how to work with people
that I wouldn't necessarily usually work with,
and I think I've really grown in this process
in terms of becoming a better businessperson
for yourself, Lord Sugar. Mmm.
Kieran, super salesman, sold six.
Been on the losing side five times.
Yes, Lord Sugar. I've put myself forward for a lot of things.
I haven't shied away and I've give everything my all.
It's a team effort, not just an individual effort.
So where I might have small wins, the team may not always win.
Mmm. Right.
Well, here we have a dilemma, really.
I have to make a decision.
Lord Sugar, if I may? Yes.
I've been project manager twice on the same task.
And you won once, by default.
Arguably, I won... A win, yeah. Yeah.
If I stay in this process. I would like to be the project manager
on Task 10 to prove to you what I can do.
If I lose, we shake hands, I walk out.
Right. That's very interesting.
Anybody else want to make that offer?
I don't feel the need to. I can if I want to.
I felt that over the last eight tasks,
I don't need another task to prove myself.
I have given myself... You lost... You know you lost five,
been in the losing team five times? Correct.
And every time within those tasks,
the project manager has usually always had a very specific role
that they've wanted me to excel in.
And at numerous times within this process, I have excelled.
I don't need a tenth task to beg you to take me.
You don't? I don't. I don't think I do.
What about you, Dan?
I feel like over the past nine tasks,
I've really kind of proven myself in many different ways.
I do believe that ultimately you've got to decide
who you want to go into business with.
I know that I've only ever worked for myself.
I'm an entrepreneur through and through. That's all I know.
And the industry that I'm in, I know it so well.
So it's whether you think there's great potential
with my business that I've got and if it's something
you want to join me on the journey with. Mmm.
I have observed you over the past nine weeks.
Dan...
..you're going to remain in this process, OK?
Thank you, Lord Sugar.
This leaves me you two.
And...
..yeah.
At this stage, Conor,
it's been very nice to meet you and be associated with you,
but I have to think about a kind of a gut feeling, OK?
So, you're fired.
Thank you so much for the opportunity.
I've had an amazing time.
You've come through nine weeks... I know. ..of difficult stuff.
OK? Done brilliant. And you've done good. Yeah.
OK, so I wish you well. Thank you so much, everyone.
OK. I've had an amazing time. Well done. Best of luck, Conor.
Right, gentlemen. Difficult decision there.
You two, go back to the house. I'll see you on the next task.
You are going to be the project manager.
You asked for it, you got it, OK? If I lose, I walk. You've got it.
And I've got bad news for you -
it's got nothing to do with selling houses.
OK? Off you go. Thank you. That's great. Thanks.
Wow. Kieran, be careful what you wish for.
Big gamble.
Conor has really learnt a lot from the process.
I wish him well. I do wish him well.
I think he's ready for the next stage of his business life.
I have done so many things that I never would have done
if it wasn't for this process.
We all had a scream. We had a laugh. It was an amazing time.
I am gutted about it. It is what it is.
I'm a big believer that everything happens for a reason,
and I'm sure there's another investor out there for me.
I do honestly think that Conor's had his chances now,
but he might have talked his way out of it.
Who's fought the most is what we want to know.
Well, Kieran definitely looked fuming in losers' cafe.
There's no-one I would want to go up against less than Kieran.
Speaking of the devil!
THEY CHEER
Well done, boys.
Dan, I knew you were coming back!
Oh, my God, guys, sit down! Tell us what happened.
It was, like, proper heated.
Yeah. And then I just went, "I'll be PM next week.
"If I lose, I'll walk."
Did you? The most Kieran thing I've ever heard. Did you actually?
Yeah. If I lose, I walk. Wow. Wow. Ballsy.
Oh, my gosh!
Now, seven candidates remain.
The search for Lord Sugar's next business partner continues.
Next time...
You're going to come up with a new pet product.
..pets...
What does a cat like?
Oh! They like cheese!
..pressure...
It's really terrible. I don't want to hear none of that anymore.
Yeah, that's... It's negative. It's put me in a bad mood.
..and in the boardroom...
You didn't try hard enough. You didn't push them enough.
..walkies!
You're fired.
