The Apprentice stars look like they’ve drunk the bar dry as they stumble out of boozy party ahead of tonight’s final
THE Apprentice cast reunited at a wrap party as the BBC stars celebrated the end of the 2024 series.
The bleary eyed stars were spotted streaming out of a West London studio after filming final scenes of the hit show.
Stunning fitness guru and mum Sam Saadet, Lancashire entrepreneur Paul Bowen, and operations director Oliver Medworth, who was the first to be axed in the series, cheered and waved to fans outside.
Music producer and Apprentice candidate DJ Virdi Singh Manaria also flashed a huge smile as he hopped into a waiting car.
Garage music star Tre Lowe posed for snaps with a ‘hired’ sign, after he narrowly missed out on a place in the final last week along with recruitment consultant Flo Edwards.
And Pie firm boss Phil Turner flashed a thumbs up sign.
But the class of 2024, including Mortgage broker Raj Chohan, looked in good spirits as they put their boardroom rivalry behind them and stopped for photographs along with The Apprentice: You’re Fired! host Tom Allen.
Tonight, viewers will watch Phil facing fitness studio owner Rachel Woolford in the pre-recorded final and will have to tune in at 9pm to see who wins Lord Sugar’s investment.
Last week, fans were left gutted when Tre’s testosterone-boosting shots failed to tickle Lord Sugar’s taste buds.
There was also a last-minute change to Dr Midha’s business plan after he was told by Lord Sugar’s advisors to “stick to what he knew”.
His plan was a scrubs business, despite having little knowledge of the industry with his expertise being in dentistry.
At the last minute, Paul changed his proposal and suggested that he and Lord Sugar open a second or third dental practice together.
However, Lord Sugar wanted 50 per cent of his current practice, which Paul said wasn’t possible.
Many viewers felt that Paul deserved to be in the final more than Phil.
“I am absolutely gutted Paul isn’t in the final,” one wrote.
“Still think Paul should have been put into the final. Still think he’d win. The outstanding candidate this year for me,” another said.
The Apprentice biggest moments
THE Apprentice has been a fan favourite ever since it burst onto the box in 2005.
Here we take a look at five of the biggest moments over the years on the hit BBC One show.
Tim Campbell – Former London Underground transport manager Tim Campbell won the first series of the reality show in 2005. He is now one of Lord Sugar’s aides on the show.
Sarah Lynn and James White – For the first and only time in the show’s history, both finalists were crowned winners in 2017.
Amy Anzel – Season 16’s fired candidate Amy Anzel was BANNED from the final celebration show, after a tit-for-tat exchange over Lord Sugar’s mocking tweets.
Michelle Dewberry – Telecoms consultant Michelle Dewberry won the second series of the show in 2006. However, after winning a six-figure job with Lord Sugar she lasted just four months before she sensationally quit.
Selena Waterman-Smith – We’re used to tensions running high in the boardroom, but in 2015 a disagreement between two candidates spilled over – for the first time – into a physical bust-up. Events manager Selina Waterman-Smith was given a verbal warning by show bosses for her role in an off-camera scrap with Charleine Wain.
