The return of The Apprentice brings us 14 brand new candidates, who will battle it out over 12 weeks in an attempt to win a six-figure salary job as Sir Alan Sugar's new apprentice.

The first task involves both teams buying fruit and vegetables and selling them in Sir Alan's hometown.

With only 13 candidates left tensions rise as both teams must design and produce a calendar to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital.

With only twelve candidates left, the teams are set to test their negotiation skills. Each team has to buy the same items and the team that brings back the most amount of money, wins.

With eleven candidates remaining, the candidiates must get a roasting in the catering business. They have two days to source, buy and prepare meals to sell at the Thames Festival.

The remaining ten candidates are given the task to promote a card that grants the bearer money for private jets. When they need a private jet, they use the card to show that they have the money.

This week, the nine remaining candidates are given the task to sell second-hand cars.

With only a 10-hour time limit, they need to convince as many customers as possible to part with their hard earned cash.

The eight survivors try to succeed in the world of fashion at Top Shop in Oxford Circus, London.

With Sir Alan and Top Shop owner Phillip Green paying the candidates a surprise visit, how will they cope as they try to find a way to appeal to the teenage fashion market?

As the series enters the second half, Sir Alan arrives at the house to tell the contestants that they must sell goods to traders.

As only six contestants remain, each team must let property. As usual the team that brings back the least amount of money, will lose, and one member, will get fired.

With only 6 people left, Sir Alan will set another challenging task. The winning team will all be fine and receive a treat but one member of the losing team will be fired.

On Week 11, the remaining 4 candidates are going it alone as they go into interview process again with 3 of the best of the people to help Sir Alan to make his decision on which two people to get fired.

The final, one contestant is hired by Sir Alan Sugar.
