Littner, who has been married to wife Thelma for almost 40 years and has two sons and three grandchildren, explained that Lord Sugar was very understanding.

“She’s a good sport”, he says of Sugar’s fellow aide and advisor.

“I did deserve to go and I’m sorry I let Manchester down and people back home but I think it’s stupid to be bitter about going out first”.

Speaking exclusively to the Telegraph, Littner said: “Of course, a few of the candidates exaggerate their previous experience or claim to be tremendous in sales when they have zero ability, but they get found out, and quite rightly so”.
