Hibah Ansary fired from Junior Apprentice

Hibah Ansary became the second Junior Apprentice hopeful to be sent packing by Lord Sugar, after her team failed to make a single sale.

This week saw the two teams tasked with inventing a new camping accessory, which Hibah's team opted to make out of cardboard.

Hibah, 16, from Manchester, was on team Revolution, who created a multi-purpose storage unit called Flex N Store.

She helped with the photoshoot to promote the invention, but the task fell apart when the team struggled to put up a tent.

Meanwhile, team Instinct invented a trolley aimed at festival-goers, named Slide Stuff.

After pitching their goods to retail giants including Argos, Instinct shifted a total of 3,100 units - while Revolution sold none.

Attention soon turned to candidate Emma Walker's questionable decision to create a camping product made out of cardboard.

Emma said: "I don't think I should be criticised for coming up with the best idea that we had."
But Lord Sugar's aide Nick Hewer interrupted: "I think it was a terrible idea. Cardboard and camping equals soggy."

Project manager Adam Eliaz decided to bring Hibah and Zoe Plummer back into the boardroom.

Lord Sugar told the candidates: "Hibah, I've observed only in the last two weeks that you are very articulate.

"Adam, on balance, I like your spirit. Hibah, my instinct is that the cut-throat nature of business is not suited to your personality so, with regret, Hibah - you're fired!"

As she was driven away, Hibah said: "This process has shown me how important success is to me.

"I really do fear failure. I'm still going to carry on with my dreams of studying medicine and I hope that I'll be really successful at it one day."
