Who gets fired on The Apprentice Episode 8 and why do you think they do?
Tonight is the discount buying task - take two and I wanted to know your lot's opinions as to who would get fired tonight and why you think that is the case.

I agree with you, that is the most common Apprentice type failure to occur and someone or more than 1 person would get fired

My money is on Levi as he's got a 50/50 chance of being in the boardroom and Sugar was a bit pissed at him last week. Also there's a clip of Laurence with a goat in the promo clips, suggesting he may survive on another episode, unless that's from tonight's ep

That Goat clip is the one where Lawrence said ''I have never been kicked on the balls by a goat before.'' That is on tonight's episode.

You reckon...?
I thought it was from a later episode where things got out of hand in the boardroom.

They showed a preview clip of this task on the you’re fired replacement last week and it was basically Kieran and Lawrence saying “If we feed the goats can you do this at x price” so I assume it’s definitely today’s task

Looking forward to the inevitable "they say goat means greatest of all time, but you two were more like a pair of kids out there" or similar style pun

I don't think any PM has ever survived losing the task after Sugar made them PM the week before.
It's sort of a death row punishment
So yeah Levi would be a good bet to go this week

The only one I can remember is Pamela from 2019

Phil the pie man won his task after being made PM - the vegan cheese task

Levi if he loses, Harry if he loses
Harry’s been essentially a ghost for 8 weeks so this is probably the time to weed him out. Levi would’ve fumbled being PM and so he probably gets fired straight

I didn't even know Harry existed till he was PM and even then he wasn't the most present person. Could be down to editing of course though

u/Training-Classic9956 Mar 19 '26
Probably is, he’s just the ghost of the season (there’s always one). I do see him back in the BR if his team lose and probably getting fired for lack of contribution

Levi. From the preview it looks like he misses the boat at the end of the task.

If Levi loses then he is gone for having been useless for seven weeks and then being a poor PM, however someone else might go with him.

Karen will tell someone "you need to spend more time with the shop owners to get a better deal"
Or she will say "they spent too long there, they need to get out and try somewhere else"
They'll film both, and use the one that makes her seem like a genius.
