Will the gin task leave Lord Sugar shaken or stirred?

Will the gin task leave Lord Sugar shaken or stirred? It’s going to take more than ice and a slice to make this challenge work. Hands up, good people of the BBC, who thought it was a smart idea to let this lot of candidates loose in a gin distillery?

Tonight's task for the final six entrepreneurs is to create, brand and then sell a new flavoured gin. Things don’t go well and Karren is decidedly unimpressed when one team gets tipsy. Don't get us wrong, it’s brilliant telly, just not a great way to do business!

Meanwhile, you'll see more proof, if any was needed, that this year's batch are the worst pitchers ever, there's bitching galore when the task doesn't go to plan and Claude dismisses one candidate as 'incredibly boring'.

It's difficult to see why Lord Sugar would want to invest in any of this bunch!
