It’s episode 5 of The Apprentice and Back To The Boardroom this week. James is absolutely in his element with a Formula E themed task. The candidates have to design their own team logo, car wrap, promotional video and pitch sponsorship placements to big name clients worth millions of pounds 🏁🏎

As always Greer and James are horrified at the candidate’s logo design - HOW can it be that bad? James gives us an update on whether Virdi and Phil are the longest losing candidates in Apprentice history and Greer shares some details on The Apprentice audition process.

The pair also have a good laugh at Virdi’s video direction in this week’s episode, ask whether Paul has copied his colour scheme from F1 team Force India and try to understand why Raj was doing a voiceover with her coat on her head 🙈🇮🇳

We’re back for episode 4 of Back to the Boardroom, recapping the infamous buying task! The candidates this week were running around Jersey, the largest of the Channel Islands, finding a whole host of products - many of which they couldn’t pronounce… including “shucked” oysters, a “bachin” and Jersey Wonders 🍪💷

James wants to know whether the running is absolutely necessary and Greer has put her foot in it with predictions. We’re also discussing marking down artisan products for 75%, laughing at some of the candidate’s negotiation techniques, (“You’re the best surfboard merchant around!”) and reviewing the shock double firing! 👉🔥

This week saw the candidates mixed up for the first time this season, forming the first iteration of teams ‘Nexus’ and ‘Supereme’. With dancing bears and (maybe) drunken mayors, the two teams set off to create their virtual escape rooms. Greer and James are back with some lighthearted analysis of the challenge, as they assess the teams’ performance in the virtual world 🎮🐻.

Greer sheds some light on why the candidates are always wearing a scarf after being fired, while James eagerly examines everyone’s computer usage and comes up with a font conspiracy theory 🧣👀

Additionally, our duo take you through their Escape Room Elevator Pitches, and have a lot to say on logo design!

We’re back for episode 2 of Back to the Boardroom chatting all things cheesecake! The candidates this week were tasked with making some deliciously decadent mini cheesecakes which they would sell to a corporate client and customers at a food market. Which team will have flavours that triumph and which will crumble under the pressure? Greer and James are on hand to see how well the teams did in their race to become Lord Sugar's next business partner 🍰🤔

James keeps an eye open for spreadsheets, badly written pound signs and has a meltdown over Lord Sugar’s treats. Greer shares with us some behind the scenes facts including what being in the Apprentice house is really like.

We’re also cringing at negotiations, avocado centres and paying £13 for a snack… and remember, when the client says no to chocolate - don’t ask a further three times! 🥑

Welcome to the inaugural episode of Back to the Boardroom. In the first task of the season, a new wave of ambitious candidates journey to the Scottish Highlands to win over those all-important first impressions in the race to become Lord Sugar's next business partner 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The candidates are thrown in the deep end and have to organise a memorable corporate away day that includes exciting outdoor activities and delicious food. Will the teams triumph, or will refunds be issued?

Expect to hear all about fish crumble, why you shouldn't clap early in the boardroom and why water is not a real welcome drink! 🥧🐠

As it is the first week, James also sets out our predictions for the series, and Greer takes a look back to 2005, the year The Apprentice began.

So, go Back to the Boardroom with Greer and James. Lord Sugar will see you now.
