Ten weeks ago, 20 candidates set out to become Lord Sugar’s latest business partner in the 20th series of The Apprentice.
The 2026 series started in Hong Kong and has also included tasks in Egypt and the Isle of Wight.
Now only five candidates, Priyesh Bathia, Pascha Myhill, Lawrence Rosenberg, Dan Miller and Karishma Vijay, remain to try to win Lord Sugar’s £250,000 investment and mentorship.
On Thursday, the remaining five will have their business plans picked apart by Lord Sugar’s hard-nosed associates to see which two make it through to the grand final.
BusinessCloud’s executive editor Chris Maguire looks at the remaining five candidates and predicts it will be a shoot-out between social media expert Karishma Vijay and established entrepreneur Dan Miller.
