Coming early next year
The Apprentice will return for a new series early next year.
The next series of the business contest will be back on BBC One on January 6, 2022.
The show was due to come out last July, but was pushed back due to COVID-19.

A big change awaits viewers in the new series, as Lord Sugar's trusted advisor Claude Littner is taking a step back.
BBC confirmed Littner will be taking a "one series break", with former contestant and The Apprentice's first-ever winner Tim Campbell taking his place.
