‘That’s the biggest shock’, cry furious fans of The Apprentice as contestant makes it to the final amid controversy
FANS of The Apprentice were left gobsmacked after a very unlikely candidate sailed into the finals.
Pie shop owner Phil Turner beat Tre Lowe and Dr Paul Midha to the last stage of the competition.
During the grueling interview stage of the show, Phil concerned Lord Sugar’s advisors with his lack of numbers in his business plan.
But it seemed an emotional moment with Claudine Collins about his family pulled him back into the running.
Phil will go head to head with recruitment consultant Flo Edwards in the show’s final.
But fans were not impressed, with many pointing out that he only won one challenge during his entire time on the programme.
“Surely Phil has the lowest win rate to ever reach the final of #TheApprentice,” one wrote.
“phil is gonna win the show after winning one task,” said a second.
“PAUL SHOULDVE BEEN YOU IN THE FINAL NOT PHIL,” another added.
“Unbelievable Phil is the bloody final,” chimed another.
“There’s no way Phil can win the Apprentice, you can’t lose 9/10 tasks and win the show,” echoed a fifth.
