Sir Alan Sugar has chosen Lee McQueen as his apprentice for this year ahead of favourite Claire Young
Recruitment sales manager Lee McQueen has become Sir Alan Sugar's fourth Apprentice, beating series favourite Claire Young, despite having been caught lying on his CV during the interviews last week.
Lee McQueen, from Princes Risborough, Buckinghamshire, said he had to take "a deep breath" when Sir Alan Sugar told him "you're hired" in the hit BBC show on Wednesday night.
Lee, 30, beat Helene Speight, Claire Young and Alex Wotherspoon in the final to land a £100,000 job alongside Sir Alan.
Lee said he would buy his girlfriend new shoes with his first pay cheque. Lee said he was also planning to lease a new Porsche, and help his mother get central heating in her flat.
The four finalists were given the task of creating a men's fragrance.
After two slick presentations, Alex Wotherspoon and Helene Speight were told by Sir Alan Sugar that their efforts were not good enough, so it was down to a straight battle between Lee McQueen and Claire Young.
Lee McQueen has been asked by Sir Alan to launch a digital advertising product which will come under one of the tycoon's portfolio of companies.
