This week Lord Sugar instructed his candidates on The Apprentice to sell pet products at the London Pet Show.
After slogging their guts out to flog a combination of animal balloons, animal T-shirts, and luxury pet beds, you’d think Versatile’s prize would have centred on being pampered.

Instead, they won a training session with Britain’s Olympic and world champion runner, Mo Farah. The athlete who is also famous for those Quorn adverts.
Twitter could hardly believe it…
Where’s the wine?
A training session with mo farah? I'll stay in and drink wine but thanks #TheApprentice #tootired

The treat for winning the apprentice this week, 10,000m with Mo Farrah – what happened to a bit of wine tasting! #TheApprentice

Weekly winners used to fly round in helicopters drinking champagne, not shooing geese for Mo Farah #TheApprentice

No disrespect to Mo but your prize is running, I'd ask to go to the cafe, at least I could have a bun with the losers #TheApprentice

Still can't get over that the treat was running with Mo Farrah. That is NOT A TREAT. A treat is chocolate with Tom Hardy. #TheApprentice

Running with Mo Farah is not my idea of a treat. I'm sure that's a torture tactic somewhere #TheApprentice

How Quorn-y!
Your prize is eating quorn and jogging with Mo Farrah? Great! #TheApprentice

'For your treat, Mo Farah will be serving you some delicious tasty Quorn.' #TheApprentice

Running with the Quorn man as a reward, even vegans would count that as a punishment #theapprentice

However, one Apprentice winner approved
A treat with @Mo_Farah on #TheApprentice – Wow!!!!!! Imagine being in the losing team missing out on that and waiting to be fired! #gutted

Ruth Whiteley was fired from The Apprentice on Wednesday. Lord Sugar’s hunt for his new business partner continues next week.
