Edna Agbarha, 36, was a London-based business psychologist prior to filming. She has a bachelor's degree in psychology from the University of East London, a master's degree in occupational psychology from Goldsmiths, University of London, and an MBA qualification from Imperial College Business School. During the process, Edna lead her team to a win in Week 2, despite making the questionable decision to pitch at a games fair herself, when there were a number other candidates who would arguably have been more suitable; many of the team thought the pitch had cost them victory, and were surprised to learn they had won by a large margin. After 5 successive task wins, Edna was brought into the boardroom in Week 6 by Zoe Beresford, where she was accused of claiming credit for the successful ideas of others. When Lord Sugar asked why he should let Edna continue, she highlighted her academic qualifications, but this only resulted in her digging an even bigger hole for herself, and Lord Sugar fired her. She later that she should have brought up her professional experience. She was the only candidate that eventual winner Tom Pellereau didn't work with during the series.

Zoe Beresford, 26, was a pupil of Abbots Bromley School, an independent school in the village of Abbots Bromley in Staffordshire, and holds a master's degree in manufacturing, engineering and management from the University of Nottingham, where she was awarded a Rolls-Royce Manufacturing Technology Prize for the School of Engineering's highest dissertation mark. She lives in Arclid, Cheshire and worked as a Project Manager for a drinks manufacturer until January 2011, when she was appointed territory manager for an outdoor/snow footwear retail company. She suffered two bouts of cancer, aged 15 and 18. On The Apprentice, Zoe came to the fore in week 3 when she was brought into the boardroom by Gavin Winstanley for disruptive behaviour, although she got off lightly since Lord Sugar did not hold directly responsible for the loss. In week 4 she was placed in the role of Project manager for Venture in the beauty treatments task. She relied on industry expert Susan Ma's advice when choosing product quantities, but halved the size of the order after consideration; even the new quantity proved far too much, as Venture only made a little over £200, a poor figure for such a market. Zoe blamed this on Susan on the task, and on the You're Fired programme that followed, Felicity Jackson took the view Zoe had been setting Susan up as a potential scapegoat.
