I think I have it, but I don't think James Max, Syed or Helen comply. Is it:

Spoiler


EDIT: Just realised that the aforementioned 3 actually do work, and so I think I must have it
You're right! You should feel proud that you managed to get one of these before Jack (TXF0429) as well.

I've thought of another of these.

What do the following candidates all have in common?

YA2:
Zara Brownless
James McCullagh
Harry Hitchens
Harry Maxwell
Gbemi Okunlola
Ben Fowler

Series 8:
Michael Copp

YA3:
Maria Doren
Patrick McDowell
David Odhiambo
Max Grodecki

Series 9:
Leah Totton
Neil Clough
Myles Mordaunt
Jason Leech
Zeeshaan Shah
Jaz Ampaw-Farr

Series 10:
Felipe Alviar-Baquero
James Hill
Ella Jade Bitton
Sarah Dales
Steven Ugoalah
Scott McCulloch

This is a bit of an obscure one, I'll be interested to see if anyone gets it. I think you'll have to be quite heavily invested in the show to realise what it is.

How are you doing with mine? I don't blame you if you can't get it, it is a very difficult one - but you are one of the few people on this forum that I think might be able to.

Sorry, that wasn't a very big clue, but see what you can do with it. May consider more help if you need it.

Did Lord Sugar talk to them at the beginning of the series or something?

Completely right! Well done Yes, they are all people who were addressed directly by Lord Sugar in the opening boardroom. He has only started doing that in the last couple of years. (At least, they're the ones we saw him talking to - I'm sure he talks to more, and they only keep a few in.)

Ha! Total guess based on vague memories of him chewing out Michael Copp. Excellent.

It has been done, but quite a few years ago, so while only Tim, Claire and Zoe were there.
Spoiler


And for the record, if Young Apprentice had been included only one person would have been on there anyway - Ashleigh.

The only thing I can see so far is that in all of the series that have more than one candidate, they were both in the boardroom in the same week at some point.

Are any Young Apprentice people on there? Sorry to keep harping on about that, but if there are it may help me figure it out, since I know some of those series better.

Ooh, that's a good one! Let's hear yours Incidentally, I don't think I'm very good at these. I seem to be a lot better at making them up than working them out.

Just a question, would you have got mine about the ones Lord Sugar spoke to in the opening boardroom?

I'm really annoyed, because I am positive that I have seen the candidates listed in this order before. I feel like it's a list that I thought of myself once and never got around to posting, and I cannot think what it was! Will need to think about this...

I've been thinking more about yours, Jack... I can't work it out, although I have noticed that every winner other than Yasmina and Zara (and possibly someone this series) is on it.

Is this series' list definitely complete, or is it possible that Bianca could make it?

More thoughts... I think it's something to do with team swaps, as every candidate has survived long enough to make it to mixed teams, and there doesn't seem to be anyone who went out really early.

Bianca could still make though she's the only that could (None of the fired candidates can make it)
A small clue is that there is a reason that few people who went out early are on it.
