Marcus Donkoh The Apprentice
South London-based barbershop owner Marcus Donkoh was a contestant on the 20th series of The Apprentice on BBC One. He was the third contestant to be fired by Lord Alan Sugar on Thursday’s (5 February) episode of the BBC reality show following an awkward boardroom mix-up.
Episode two of the show saw the two teams create their own children’s book and audio version for 4-6-year-old kids, and they had to pitch their idea to retailers in the industry. But unfortunately, Marcus’ team lost and failed to get enough sales to win the competition. Marcus, who was project manager, originally decided to bring Kieran McCartney and Dan Miller to the boardroom, but quickly asked Lord Sugar if he could swap Dan for Priyesh Bathia, with Baroness Karren Brady noting “that was very unusual.”
An unimpressed Lord Sugar decided to bring back all four men to face a grilling. Donkah ultimately became the third contestant eliminated from the competition, following the double elimination of events manager Georgina Newton and mortgage broker Nikki Jetha on episode one.
