We have a winner! (Hate to say I told you so)

Congrats to Zara on winning the Young Apprentice last night. She was the clear front runner from the start and I had her picked to win as soon as I started watching

I have to say, however, James certainly didn’t go down without a fight. I actually thought he performed better than Zara did in the final task. His game concept was brilliant and I think it’s the first time anyone on any version of the apprentice has put together a good viral ad.

Zara had her usual determination and focus and she certainly had a good idea for her game and how the character could develop. I’m not sure if she drew the short stick when it came to the game designers though, because I thought her game looked pretty poor when we saw the finished product.

The thing about Zara was though, she has built up so much credibility during the previous tasks that it would have taken some kind of monumental success on James’ part (or a monumental failure on Zara’s) for him to be declared the winner. You can just tell that Zara will be a huge success at whatever she does. James certainly gave Sir Alan a tough decision though.

So do you agree with Alan’s decision or do you think James actually did enough to win? And what did you think of the games they came up with? Let us know in the comments section.

Here are some tweets we liked for added inspiration:

@rickedwards1 is Mohammed back in his pimpin' white suit? I love that kid so much. Imagine he'll claim to have won in the boardroom later #youngapprentice

@JaackMaate I'm glad Zara won #YoungApprentice maybe now she can buy herself a new dress

@HarryMaxwell Not even that pig suit could stop me schmoozing the execs at the event.. They loved shaking my hand! #winning #youngapprentice
