Sir Alan’s sidekick Margaret quits show

Quote:

APPRENTICE sidekick Margaret Mountford last night quit the show.

The white-haired cult favourite, 56, is leaving after five years to finish her doctorate on ancient Egyptian manuscripts.

Corporate lawyer Margaret and colleague Nick Hewer act as Sir Alan Sugar’s “eyes and ears” on the BBC1 show.

The pair watch the wannabes bumble through their tasks before reporting to the business guru.

But she has told Sir Alan she will bow out after tomorrow night’s finale to concentrate on her PhD in papyrology.

A show insider said: “This will come as a big blow to Sir Alan and the millions of viewers.

“Margaret and Nick have almost as big a following as Sir Alan.

“She is very sad to be leaving but she feels the time is right.

“When she started I don’t think she had any idea just how popular it would become.”

The source added: “She has enjoyed every minute but it is very hard work and she wants to go out on a high.

“Margaret has told Sir Alan, who understands her reasons and thanked her for her hard work.”

Bosses will start their hunt for a replacement after the final episode of the current series, which airs tomorrow night.

Margaret met Sir Alan when she advised him on his firm Amstrad in the ’80s, and she joined the show at the start in 2005.

NOOO! Oh god, Dear of her. She is the sex factor of the show..

Forget I said that

:bored: I'm not applying for the juniour audition now I only wanted to go on to see her. :laugh:

Can't believe she's going. :bawling:

Ahh man, it won't be the same without her

NOOOOOOOOOOOO
:shocked:

I love Margaret :(
I hope he doesn't bring another man in as a sidekick, it should be a woman IMO.

Nooo
It wont be the same without her.
I can also see Nick quitting after some of his comments in the press this week

I loved her, but The Apprentice isn't what it used to be so good on her.

OMG,such a shame,bye margaret.:flowers:

This surely has to be the worst news this week? :sad:

Margaret will be missed.

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Awww Magaret :( Always preferred Nick but still, it's a shame.

awwww nooo i love her.

i've not seen any papers this week whats been said about nick? it's such a shame margaret is leaving i liked her i've enjoyed every series with her. it should be a woman who replaces her. i wouldn't mind karen brady taking over to be honest. what do you's think? xx

Noo ! .. Nick & Marge's facial expressions are sooo funny=]

They're a great pair.

:bawling:

Send her off to ITV to replace Fern Britton :cheer:

The Apprentice will never be the same without her, Who will replace her or will there be a new format?

No way!! I she's a big aspect :sad:

No!! I heart her.

They'll prob get Karren Brady to replace her. She has done 'Comic Relief does The Apprentice' and she is the female interviewer on the show.

Can't believe she's going. She's brilliant, I expect one aspect of why people watch the show is to see her. :bawling:
