There has been a lot of speculation today that Sir Alan Sugar is planning on having four people in this years Apprentice final rather than the normal two.

According to The Daily Mirror, the last-minute change in format to the hit TV show is apparently because Sir Alan is struggling to choose between the remaining contestants.

A show source reportedly said: “As this series has gone on, Sir Alan has found it harder to narrow down the field. He is now torn between a number of possible Apprentices.

“Instead of getting rid of more than one contestant in the semifinals, he will keep four for the final test so he can keep his options open.”

It is also rumoured that each of the four finalists will bring back one person that has already been sent home to assist them in their task.
