Estate agent Kieran McCartney was good to his word when he walked from the competition after his team failed to secure victory as project manager.
McCartney had made the promise to Lord Sugar at the end of the previous episode and went ‘walkies’ when his team narrowly lost a challenge to create a new pet product for major UK retailers.
Student wellbeing adviser and keen baker Rothna Akhtar was also fired after ending up on the losing team and failing to secure any sales.
It leaves the final five candidates – Priyesh Bathia, Pascha Myhill, PR specialist Lawrence Rosenberg, Dan Miller and Karishma Vikay – all competing for Lord Sugar’s £250,000 investment and mentorship.
