Apprentice finalist and St Albans business woman Luisa Zissman appeared on a breakfast show this morning ahead of next week’s final.

The mother-of-one appeared on BBC Breakfast dressed in a pale pink suit with her competitor Leah Totton.

The pair were interviewed about the show so far and next week’s final, which will see them battle it out for a £250,000 investment in their business from Alan Sugar.

During the show the women spoke about how they had become close friends during the competition, but were still in strong competition for the prize.

They even turned up to the breakfast show wearing the same suit, although they had picked different colours.

Luisa said: "I wouldn’t like to be here with anyone but Leah.

"Leah and I are great friends but at the end of the day we are here to win.

"We’re very different people and we’re very different investments.

"At this point I think it is every woman for herself."

The two women were named as the finalists in last night’s show, which saw the final five candidates interviewed and scrutinised by a team of Lord Sugar’s advisors.

The final will be shown on BBC One at 8pm on Wednesday (July 17).
