Rocky Andrews, 21, from Middlesbrough, is the owner of a chain of sandwich shops called Fatso's. Andrews had previously played football for the Middlesbrough Academy but his promising career ended after he was diagonosed with arthritis. He was fired with regret in the second week after failing as project manager on a task related to his own business.

Debra Barr is a 23-year-old senior sales consultant from Surrey (originally from Glasgow), who holds a BA in English literature from Royal Holloway, University of London. She has been portrayed as one of the villains of the series, along with Ben Clarke and Phillip Taylor. Known for being gutsy and outspoken, Debra was awarded 'mouth of the year' at her office Christmas party. Some candidates have referred to her as being "six foot tall, seven foot tall with her mouth open". Her outspoken manner was most notable when she expressed frustration at Nick Hewer in week six for questioning whether or not she was responsible for closing a deal. However, Hewer added later that this was one of his personal highlights of the series: "My real highlight, and who wouldn't get a little frisson from it, to be ticked off by the lofty and beautiful Debra". She narrowly missed a firing in week one, eight and nine and was fired two weeks later in the interview task; finishing in third place overall.

Despite not making it to the final two, Alan Sugar asked Debra to "keep in touch" and made several remarks implying that firing Debra instead of Yasmina or Kate could be one of the biggest mistakes he's ever made.

On 11 June 2009, she appeared on This Week to discuss workplace bullying. In March 2010 Debra filmed a series of interviews for The Business Channel where she spoke with key figures in the energy sector about the Carbon Reduction Commitment.
