The Apprentice team smash show record as they rake in over £1 million in sales
It's the first time it's ever happened on the show!
Since The Apprentice first hit our TV screens way back in 2005, there's been a number of success stories, but we aren't going to lie, the main entertainment on the popular BBC show is when the Boardroom erupts after some slightly embarrassing efforts from the hopeful candidates.
So, on last night's show (Wednesday 23rd October), viewers, along with Lord Alan Sugar, Claude Littner and Karren Brady, were left in complete shock when the team led by Project Manager Iasha Masood smashed sales records, earning over 1 million pounds!
At the beginning of the episode, the candidates were split into two teams, with the brief of having to create and sell their own electric bicycle, as well as all of the gadgets associated with the cycling world.
Despite one team creating a bright red bicycle, with bright red wheel trims, the team led by Iasha smashed the task, impressing some of the biggest cycle retailers in the UK.
In the famous boardroom, the two teams were given the results of the task, with the team led by Thomas Skinner racking in a cool £437,700.
Despite this being a pretty respectable amount, Lord Sugar's right-hand man Claude revealed Iasha's team had brought in a MASSIVE 1.2 million pound of sales, stunning everybody involved.
Viewers at home were quick to take to social media about the result, one user wrote, 'Over £1m in sales. Woah Aisha's going to win The Apprentice #TheApprentice'. sic
Another then added, 'Fabulous 1.2 million of sales! Well done Iasha and team yous pulled it off! World Record 1.2 million of sales yaaay #TheApprentice #TheApprentice2019 Fantastic sophisticated Sarah pitch Iasha! (talked about the bike with great detail) Well done Iasha sticking to your guns!'. sic
