Discount Buying

Episode 6 of 8

Called to Madame Tussauds, the remaining candidates are given just ten hours to find ten items for ten waxworks, leading to a frantic chase across London.

With just two weeks to go before the final, the seven remaining teenage candidates must work against the clock in order to meet Lord Sugar's next challenge. Called to one of London's top tourist attractions, Madame Tussauds, both teams are given just ten hours to find ten items for ten waxworks. Under strict instructions to find things that 'look the part but don't cost the earth', the teenagers' powers of negotiation are pushed to the limit.

In a chase across London, Nick and Karren watch on as the candidates attempt to track down items fit for celebrities like Justin Bieber, Elle MacPherson and Nelson Mandela, at the lowest possible price. One particular item causes a lot of head scratching and dead end leads for both teams, and tensions rise as time ticks by.

In the boardroom, missing or incorrect items are subject to penalty fines, and the losing team gets a grilling from Lord Sugar. It isn't long before the blame game begins, but time finally runs out for one more candidate, who hears the fateful words: 'You're fired!'.
