Week seven saw the 10 remaining candidates sent on a two-day business trip to Morocco to put their negotiation skills to the ultimate test.

They were given just one day to find 10 items in the hectic markets of Marrakech, famous for its canny traders.

Jenny Celerier's bid to bribe a shop worker to try to scupper the rival Alpha team from being able to take some tennis rackets back into the boardroom backfired after she was sacked.

Celerier, who was on the losing team Renaissance, said that the move had been a "survival strategy" and she thought Sir Alan Sugar would think she was being innovative.

Celerier said: "The Marrakech task was the first one that I found quite difficult. I did not have much to fight my corner with. I was for the first time the weakest candidate. I knew I needed to pull something out of the bag."

Speaking about Sir Alan Sugar branding her "a bit of a snake" on the BBC1 show, she said it was like someone using a sledgehammer.

When asked what she wanted to do next, the 36-year-old from Leicester joked she and project leader Jennifer Maguire, who was also sacked, were going to release a cover of Devil Woman, which would be "The Corrs meets Bonnie Tyler".

Maguire tasked her team with hunting out kosher chicken. Viewers also saw some debate about whether kosher chicken could be blessed in a mosque.

Maguire, 27, was told by Sir Alan when she was fired that the mistakes were made by people who were out of control. The Dubliner, who currently lives in Bristol, said she plans to return to her home city to set up a makeover and photographic studio.
