It was another tough week in The Apprentice<\/a> boardroom, with the second candidate getting fired.<\/p>\n

After the boys failed to secure any orders for their \u201cWiffy The Wizard\u201d children\u2019s toothbrush, it was decided that Conor Gilsenan<\/a> from London would be going home.<\/p>\n

However, Conor doesn\u2019t agree with Lord Sugar\u2019s decision, as he revealed which one of the The Apprentice 2022 candidates<\/a> he thinks should have been given the boot.<\/p>\n

Speaking exclusively to RadioTimes.com<\/a>, the sales executive said: \u201cIt\u2019s pretty obvious that I shouldn\u2019t have been fired. I honestly think if Aaron was sitting here, he\u2019d have said he should have fired himself!\u201d<\/p>\n

During the challenge, Conor came up with the name Wiffy for the toothbrush, which Aaron Willis<\/a> then designed using the colour brown.<\/p>\n

It had been agreed that they\u2019d be going for a gender-neutral brush, but when it came to creating the app, Conor opted for a male character.<\/p>

Asked if there\u2019s anything he\u2019d have done differently, he said: \u201cWhen I first came out, I was kicking myself about the name Wiffy, but as time\u2019s gone on, I\u2019m like, \u2018Wiffy\u2019s a good name!\u2019 It was actually spelled W-I-F-F-I, but at least I\u2019ll leave and it will be a bit of fun. It\u2019ll be somewhat memorable, going out for no particular reason.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite the boys failing the task against the girls, Conor always thought he was \u201csafe\u201d and didn\u2019t think he\u2019d be going home, with the 28-year-old admitting: \u201cEven when we lost I was like, surely I\u2019m pretty safe!\u201d<\/p>\n

On the brown wand design, which was later compared to a turd, he added: \u201cJust to clarify, I had nothing to do with the logo and the toothbrush, so I was kind of left with a puzzle.\u201d<\/p>\n
