Although the search for Lord Sugar’s business partner is typically aired over 12 weeks, the tasks themselves are filmed in a fraction of that time, months in advance. As Karren Brady revealed to RadioTimes.comat the show’s 2019 launch: “The whole of the series is crammed into five weeks. We're back-to-back-to-back-to-back without a day off!” These ...
If you’re ever left wondering how candidates fail to drum up sales in their allotted time, it may not entirely be their fault. As you probably suspected, their task time is significantly cut down by filming red tape and restrictions. “You don’t actually get as long as you think on task,” series 12 contestant Frances Bishop previously toldRadioTimes...
Turns out that it’s not only the candidates that try out their business acumen on The Apprentice. In order to make sure filming goes smoothly, members of the production crew attempt the tasks during the show's planning process. “They do a dry run to make sure tasks are possible – that you can go out and buy those items and how much you should be ge...
Although the backseat 'you haven't seen the last of me!' taxi interview with fired candidates is filmed after they’ve been kicked out the competition, the shot of them entering the car was recorded well in advance. In fact, in what we imagine is a terrifying omen for all contestants, it's one of the first sequences they shoot. Even the eventual win...
Contrary to the many shots of the London skyline sprinkled throughout the episode, The Apprentice’s boardroom isn’t actually in Canary Wharf. It’s not even filmed in Lord Sugar’s actual HQ in Brentwood, Essex. Instead, boardroom shoots take place in a studio by West Acton (just round the corner from the Bridge café). There is good reason for this t...
You can even go there yourself and enjoy a cuppa. It’s at Acton in West London – Westfields Road, London, W3 0AP, to be precise. 1. Is The Bridge Cafe in The Apprentice a real place? As mentioned above, it’s just around the corner from the boardroom studio.
Or, as we like to think of it, the reserve losers café. Like the Bridge, it is a real business which you can visit – no grilling by Lord Sugar necessary. You can find it at this address: 36 Cumberland Business Park, Cumberland Avenue, Acton, Park Royal, London, NW10 7RT. 1. Where is The Apprentice losers café La Cabana? Why do candidates occasional...
According to the BBC and aide Claude Littner, all of Lord Sugar’s quips are ad-libbed (although there’s no telling if he thinks of a few prepared jokes in his head before each task). The BBC says: “He does not wear an earpiece, so the production team cannot interrupt him or feed things to him in the boardroom. Everything he says and all the decisio...
Ever wondered why Apprentice contestants never think to Google any unknown items during the buying task? Or ditch the A-Z in favour of a GPS? Simple answer: they’re not allowed to. The phones they are given can’t access the internet.
Since The Apprentice airs on BBC One, a publically-funded broadcaster, the show can’t promote any real businesses. And this rule can put candidates in a real pickle – particularly in the final. Although they may want Lord Sugar to invest in a business they already own, a finalist can’t pitch using the same branding as their current company. For ins...

- Sleeping in makeup: how Apprentice contestants deal with those early morning calls. Former contestant Lubna Farhan, who appeared in the 2019 series, told Metro.co.uk that the early morning wake-ups are very real, and how contestants prepare to get ahead of them.
- No Googling allowed. 2015 winner Joseph Valente told Metro.co.uk that any contestants hoping to do some late night research for their latest brainwave are out of luck.
- Outside of filming, no work allowed. There’s strictly no working on the task in the house, either. ‘You can’t take a pen and paper with notes from the task and take it into the house,’ Jaz explained. ‘
How many people does it take to film the tasks? The production team, including all crew, is large. On each task there will be four crews filming (each with a producer and researcher) - one...
