But while he managed to make it all the way to Week 10 of the competition, and narrowly missed out on the interview stage, taking place next week on Thursday 17th March, Willis believes he could have gone home earlier.<\/p>\n
Back in Week 2, The Apprentice 2022 candidates<\/a> were challenged with making their own children\u2019s electronic toothbrush and app, and Aaron\u2019s team came up with a green and brown design with a character named Wiffy.<\/p>\n Speaking of Lord Sugar\u2019s decision to fire him, Willis said: \u201cLet\u2019s be honest, he could have easily fired me back in the Wiffy the Wizard days! If he was going to fire me before now, that would have been the perfect opportunity!\u201d<\/p>\n He continued: \u201cThat toothbrush is going to go down in history, isn\u2019t it! I mean, it\u2019s a colour combination that\u2019s going to stick with me for a long time.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m looking in my garden now and all I can see is the conifers against the brown fence, honestly my eyes are just drawn to it all the time! I had some chocolate limes the other day and it just takes me straight back. Brown and green is officially the new black!\u201d<\/span><\/p> Asked how he feels about missing out on the final, he added: \u201cDo you know what, I\u2019m actually quite at peace with it because I do think it was my time [to go].<\/p>\n \u201cIt was one of those moments where I felt I\u2019d peaked and I\u2019d rather have been fired for something which was justified, so I\u2019ve got no complaints! At the end of the day, I messed it up, so I can\u2019t really argue with that!\u201d<\/p>\n The Apprentice airs on Thursdays at 9pm on BBC One.
