Piers Morgan leaves fans confused after teasing Lord Alan Sugar on new series announcement | TV & Radio | Showbiz & TV

The latest instalment will see former winner Tim Campbell join as one of Lord Sugar’s aides.

He will be standing in for Claude Littner, as she is unable to take part in the new series due to medical reasons.

Tim will join Karren Brady with Lord Sugar saying: “My former winner Tim Campbell will step into Claude’s seat and be my eyes and ears as the candidates face a tough set of business challenges in the upcoming series.”

Carina Lepore won The Apprentice’s latest series in 2019, securing investment in her artisan bakehouse.

Lord Sugar picked Carina to be his business partner ahead of Scarlett Allen-Horton who pitched her new recruitment agency. 

The Apprentice returns 6th January at 9pm on BBC One.
