The Apprentice’s Jonny Heaver revealed a blunder he made during his final appearance on the show, which he was grateful didn’t make the cut.
Jonny was the fifth hopeful to leave the show last Thursday (March 6), being fired by Lord Alan Sugar after he failed to impress during the contestants’ business trip to Turkey.
The two teams were sent abroad to put on events for corporate clients, with Chisola Chitambala’s team opting to take their guests out on a Jeep ride. Keir Shave led his team as the group staged a hot air balloon ride for their clients, which drew in more profit than the opposing team.

In the boardroom, Lord Sugar chose to bring back Frederick Afrifa and Jonny from the losing team, before Johnny heard the dreaded “You’re fired!”.
It was when leaving that Jonny made the blunder, telling Yahoo how he was mortified when he was unable to leave the room on his first try.
