One of the nation’s most popular TV shows starring a businesswoman with links to Hampstead Garden Suburb has been filmed in Highgate.

The Apprentice returned to our screens on Tuesday and revealed that candidates fighting to become Alan Sugar’s next business partner were housed in a luxurious Highgate mansion.

It is not known whereabouts in the village the 20 fresh-faced candidates called their home for the duration of their time on the 12-week show.

Among the candidates hoping to win a £250,000 investment in their business was 23-year-old Ella Jade Bitton, whose family business Ella Jade Interiors has a showroom in Market Place, Hampstead Garden Suburb, and headquarters in Cricklewood.

She is still in the running and Heathman will be tracking her progress throughout the new series with interest.
