ALAN Sugar’s apprentices are set to storm Brighton in tomorrow’s episode of the The Apprentice.

Viewers can expect to watch the candidates flogging sweets to local businesses and hounding the unsuspecting public into parting with their cash, all for the chance of a job with Lord Sugar.

This week the business guru shakes things up by mixing the boys and girls teams and the pressure is on to design and manufacture their own range of sweets to sell and trade in the city.

One team opts for a traditional seaside theme, while the other focuses on flavours for a more sophisticated palate.

Brightonians shopping in North Laine were in for a surprise with salt and vinegar fudge and ice cream flavoured rock on offer.

Meanwhile, the other team sold strawberry champagne sweets and cappuccino toffee on the Brighton seafront.

Among the businesses the Apprentice were unleashed on was Brighton and Hove Albion Football Club, who team Titan try and pitch their blue and white football-shaped sweets to.

But despite the Albion corporate sales team repeatedly declining to spend more than £300 on the sweets, salesman Sofiane Khelfa doesn't seem to get message making for an awkward exchange.

The Albion is later fleeced when the candidates have a problem in production and deliver the Seagulls half-shaped football sweets.

But not every business was left with a sour taste in their mouth.

Matt Savage, co-owner of Sophia and Matt, was pleased with the ice cream rock the shop was sold, despite the Apprentice candidates not doing their sums properly.

The gift shop boss said: “We paid a reasonable price and the sweets they made were genuinely nice.”

But the former Brighton Marina resident passed on the salt and vinegar fudge and described it as “tasting like someone just put vinegar in fudge” and made the team redo the packaging which “looked like someone chewed it”.

Intrigued viewers can taste the sweets when they go on sale tomorrow in Sophia and Matt’s Oxford Street Brighton store. “I think they’ll be a good product and they’re going to to sell", he added.

The BBC show is in its 11th series and winners have gone on to start new ventures with the businessman worth £1.15 billion and ranked the 95th richest person according to the Sunday Times Rich List.

Catch which candidates are spared and which candidate is fired by Lord Sugar in the boardroom on BBC One tomorrow at 9pm.
