This year's series of The Apprentice has been full of hilarious blunders, boardroom drama and Lord Sugar's corny catchphrases. 

From creating a cruise ship experience in week one to baby food in week nine, Lord Sugar has certainly challenged the 10 candidates throughout the series. 

The candidates are now in their last two weeks, with the final four being an all-female line-up.

This week is the dreaded interviews stage and we can expect to see the final four have their CVs scrutinised and ideas grilled by a terrifying panel of entrepreneurs.

Who are the Final Four? 

Brittany

The 25-year-old describes herself as kind, sociable and enthusiastic and wants investment from Lord Sugar for the first alcoholic protein drink. 

“My motto for life is ‘always look on the bright side and be grateful for everything’– every day when I wake up, I write 10 things that I am grateful for and when I go to sleep, I reflect on 5 things I am grateful for from that day," she said. 

Stephanie

Wins: 3

Losses: 7

Stephanie is a 28-year-old from Kent and owns an online children's store.

She has a no-nonsense attitude to business and wants to be a part of the pre-loved fashion industry. 

 “I’m an East London girl, and I’ve got that no-nonsense sort of work ethic. I’ve got grit, determination and I’m determined to be successful.”

Harpreet 

Wins: 7

Losses: 2

Harpreet is a 30-year-old owner of a dessert parlour from West Yorkshire. 

She is looking to "level up" her six-figure coffee and cakes business with the help of Lord Sugar. 

“I’m definitely not in business to make friends, I’m here to make money, and I’m pretty sure Lord Sugar isn’t looking for a new mate.”

Kathryn 

Wins: 3

Losses: 7

Kathryn owns an online pyjama store and is from Swindon.

The 29-year-old describes herself as ambitious, kind and often "savage", who is there to win and expand her business. 

“My dreams in my head are absolutely huge and I believe I can achieve them.”

Who is doing the interviews this year? 

Claude Littner will return for this year's interviews after not taking part in this series due to an operation. 

Claude said: "Well, I’m back! But, just for the interview stage of the process. 

"The whole team went to so much trouble to have me back. I had written off this series, but it would seem Lord Sugar and the production company had other ideas!

"It was quite funny how it came about - Alan arrived at my house one day (although he phoned me almost daily!) and he just said, 'You will do the interviews, won’t you?' and I replied, 'Yes, of course'.

"The moment it came out of my mouth I was thinking, how on earth am I actually going to do it? The truth is, by the time it came to filming I was feeling better but the team had been so kind and gone to so much trouble so I could be involved."

Mike Soutar, Linda Plant and Claudine Collins will also return and give Lord Sugar their verdict on who should be his next business partner. 

The Apprentice airs on BBC One at 9 pm on Thursdays.
