 The finalists are vying for a �100,000 job with Sir Alan Sugar |
The Apprentice contestants Ruth Badger and Michelle Dewberry will go head-to-head in the hit TV show's first all-female final next week. The pair will have to manage their fired former team-mates as they stage shows at Tower Bridge, London, in the finale on BBC Two on Wednesday.
They are competing to win a �100,000 job with Sir Alan Sugar.
Sir Alan fired former footballer Ansell Henry, 34, and headhunter Paul Tulip, 26, after rigorous job interviews.
In the final task, Ruth and Michelle will be judged on creativity, marketing, organisation and leadership. "My plan was to be the last woman standing, so winning is the only option for me," said sales manager Ruth, 28.
Telecoms consultant Michelle, 26, said: "I am very proud. It proves it's the quiet ones you have to watch."
The women have come through 11 weeks of tough business assignments and seen 12 other hopefuls get the sack.
Wednesday night's show, which was up against The Matrix Revolutions on ITV1, attracted 4.8 million viewers - 21.6% of the audience share, according to unofficial overnight figures.
