Fans of The Apprentice won't have long to wait for the brand new series as the start date has now been released. Last year, Rachel Woolford, who owns a boutique fitness studio, successfully secured a £250,000 investment from business mogul Lord Sugar.
Now, a fresh batch of 18 contestants are gearing up to compete for their own chance at success and the opportunity of a lifetime to win Lord Sugar's £250k investment. The 19th season of The Apprentice is set to premiere on BBC One on Thursday, January 30, 2025.
This will be followed by a new series of The Apprentice: You’re Fired, which will drop on iPlayer each week, straight after the main programme. To whet fans' appetites, the BBC has teased viewers by revealing that the season opener will take the contestants to the snowy Austrian Alps, where they’ll be challenged to sell tour packages.
The preview for the new series promises an exciting and action-packed experience with Lord Sugar's aids Karen Brady and Tim Campbell looking far from impressed. After seeing the clip online, one person commented: "Yes, yes, it's gonna be good. I'm glad the apprentice is back. While another added: "I can't wait!".
Another elated viewer exclaimed: "YAYYAYAY I'M SO EXCITED." Another enthused: "Absolutely fantastic. I can't wait Lord Sugar, this is one of the few gems of the BBC that I do enjoy so much, bring it on..". A thrilled fan couldn't contain their excitement, saying: "Can't wait at last for something to watch on TV." Meanwhile, another chimed in with and shared: "I love this show. Proper entertainment. Excellent.".
