'Noorul, you're fired' - Rochdale's apprentice bites the dust

Date published: 30 April 2009


The two words Rochdale's apprentice was longing not to hear were uttered last night as Noorul Choudhury was fired by Sir Alan Sugar.

Noorul's days looked to be numbered after a poor performance leading his team in last week's task, and sure enough he was shown the door after another failure last night.

Sir Alan said of the Heywood high school teacher, 'Whoever employs you had better get a receipt' and that he didn't know what Noorul was doing here.

Noorul survived a total of six weeks on the BBC show, approximately half way through the series.
