Twenty-three-year-old fragrance retailer Dan Callaghan’s unusual suggestion set the tone for a madcap opening episode that introduced the 18 candidates vying for Lord Sugar’s £250,000 investment on the hit BBC show.
Alan Sugar promises things really “get going” in the 11th series of The Apprentice, which starts on BBC One on Wednesday (14Oct15). He’s worked with Lord Sugar, so he knows exactly what it takes.
“I don’t know what I’ll be remembered for, most probably by the population for firing people”, he added. You can not say you can not sell to the public.
