Fans of The Apprentice will know that no matter how good a candidate may have performed during the tasks, it can all come unstuck in an instant when they get to the notoriously savage interview stage. Over the years we've seen candidates stutter, crumble and cry their way through some brutal interviews as their business plans are picked apart and scrutinised page by page until there is nothing left buy ruins and humiliation.
Claude Littner - who was replaced by Tim Campbell as Lord Sugar's aide this series after a leg operation - was previously one of the most savage interviewers during the penultimate episode - and he's making a special cameo appearance on Thursday, March 17. Known for brutal one liners like: "You're not a big fish, you're not even a fish," we're sure the candidates will be quaking in their smart interview shoes.
We traditionally tend to watch this episode from behind our sofas, wearing our crash helmets. It's just so unbearable. We're haunted by moments like when candidate Lewis wanted to send his customers to Croatia, then couldn't find it on a globe. Or when candidate Camilla arrived at her interview and greeted Claude with a cheery: "Yoo hoo!" like he was her Granny. Without further ado, here are some of the moments and clips from seasons past that had us go into a cold, hard cringe.
