I was fired on The Apprentice – I didn’t even make it to the boardroom but there was a huge perk
BRADLEY Johnson suffered a huge blow on The Apprentice after Lord Sugar was forced to fire him without discussion following an epic failure in the task.
The Northern native faced the difficult task of being Project Manager during week nine of the tough BBC One contest but he failed to lead his team to victory after a shocking error that saw their men's skincare product turn people's skin green.
Lord Sugar was left enraged by the monumental mistake and blasted Bradley and his team as a "disgrace".
In a shocking twist, he deemed the actions of Bradley to be unforgivable and fired him from the contest without warning, which left business hopeful Brad stunned as he questioned 'is this really happening?'
Lord Sugar said: "Bradley, three times project manager, three times you’ve tried to change the product when you’re pitching it. I’ve told you before, I don’t ever want to see you back in this boardroom again, and I’ll tell you what, I’m never going to see you back in this boardroom again. Bradley – you’re fired."
Despite the axing coming out of the blue, Bradley revealed that upon reflection he was left glad that he got given the chop so abruptly - even claiming it allowed him to head off and go straight down to the pub.

Bradley said: "I was almost glad because the pressure and the anxiety that you feel going into the losers cafe and going through the whole kind of conversation with the rest of the team and finding out where it has all gone wrong - everyone is at each other's throats almost.
"I didn't have to go through any of that, I literally got into the cab, said my peace in the cab, went straight down to the pub and had a pint of Stella and wobbled into bed at 10 o'clock."
He added: "It was fantastic, it was amazing!"
The hopeful also admitted that there was no bad blood among the cast as he insisted he would remain in touch with each individual.

Bradley said: "The way this year has been cast, everyone is of a very similar age and similar personality.
"There is nowhere else that I could have met seventeen other people of a similar age who have gone through the same sort of thing as well as this process.
"Everyone in that process, I would class as a friend, they are all unique and different in their own ways but there is no one that I would never talk to, I think they are all genuinely great."
