As Sir Alan Sugar’s search for an apprentice approaches the half-way point, he decides to throw the candidates completely out of their comfort zones. He calls them to Christie’s, in London’s St James’s, where works of art regularly sell for hundreds of thousands of pounds. The candidates’ task is to choose photographs and then sell them in a fashionable east London gallery.
Natalie – a housewife with a business Masters Degree – is project manager of the Eclipse team. They are split on the best approach: should they go in for the kill or do artists and their customers prefer a softly, softly approach? Over on the other team, marketing consultant Tre objects to some nude photographs which his project manager, Kristina, has chosen.
If all goes well, the teams could sell thousands of pounds’ worth of photographs. One team still has to lose, however, and after a grilling from Sir Alan in the boardroom, one person in that team will get fired.
