Lord Alan Sugar makes Apprentice history with shock decision ahead of brutal double firing
LORD Alan Sugar made history on The Apprentice with a surprising decision ahead of a harsh double firing.
For the first time in 18 series, he stopped the taxi returning to the house and asked everyone from the losing team to come back to the boardroom for a double firing.
After the candidates left the boardroom and got into the taxi, Karen Brady, Alan's advisor, said to Alan: "I've gotta tell you Alan, they all made mistakes. They're all culpable. They should all be back in here."
Alan then called up reception and said: "You know what. Stop those other candidates going back to the house because I want everybody back in this boardroom."
Pharmacist and Business Owner Amina Khan and Recruitment Director Jack Davies were then both fired.
Alan said to Jack and Amina: "Jack, you were ultimately responsible for the strategy, and the strategy failed.

"But, Amina, you were in charge of the sub-team's lack of strategy and that cost the whole team big. And so, it is with regret Amina, you're fired."
"And Jack, I'm sorry to say, you're also fired."
In today's episode, the contestants were sent to Jersey.
Their mission was to locate nine items associated with island.
The losing team purchased seven items but made a mistake by buying one wrong item, resulting in a fine. They were also fined for not getting two items and for returning back to the boardroom late.
Throughout the episode, candidates were seen bargaining to get the goods for as low as possible.
The losing team spent £669 whilst the winning team spent £427.
