The Final and You're Hired

Episode 14 of 14

The two finalists must launch their businesses with the help of some former candidates. The winner is decided and then interviewed by Dara O Briain.

With just two candidates left to battle it out for the Β£250,000 investment, the finalists receive a call summoning them to the Bloomsbury Ballroom.

Lord Sugar informs them that their final task is to launch their businesses - creating brands and unveiling their campaigns before an audience of business bigwigs at the venue in a few days' time. Old candidates return and the finalists compete to recruit them to their cause. Then it's straight down to business; one takes a dictatorial approach to management, while the other contender, filming a promotional video, succumbs to stage fright.

On launch day, as the finalists step up to present their plans to leading industry experts and Lord Sugar, will nerves continue to get the upper hand? Or will the candidates rise to the occasion and deliver the perfect pitch?

In the boardroom, business plans are picked over and launch campaigns assessed, but only one can win. It's heartbreak for one and elation for the other as Lord Sugar finally picks his business partner.

Dara O Briain then meets the winner, runner-up and Lord Sugar himself to discuss the the highs, lows and humour of the past 12 weeks. They are joined by all of the candidates, Karren, Nick and a panel including comedian Romesh Ranganathan and entrepreneur Dale Murray.
