"Lord Sugar has admitted that he regrets hiring Michelle Dewberry on The Apprentice. Dewberry beat her competitor Ruth Badger to win a job with Sugar in the show&amp;#039;s second series. Speaking at the launch of the new series, Sugar explained that he might not have made the right decision. &amp;quot;[Picking Michelle over Ruth] is the only one where you could say that there is some regret,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;And the regrets really were very much that she decided that what my company had to offer was not for her. The reason Ruth wasn&amp;#039;t chosen is another private issue.&amp;quot; However, Sugar explained that he is largely pleased with the previous winners of The Apprentice. &amp;quot;I think if you go back and look at Tim Campbell, for example, he worked for me for two years,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;ll skip the lady that we spoke of earlier on, and move on to Simon Ambrose who worked for me for two years. Lee [McQueen] worked for me for two years and Yasmina [Siadatan] is working for me now. They&amp;#039;ve done a great apprenticeship for me.&amp;quot; The new series of The Apprentice begins on Wednesday, October 6 at 9pm on BBC One. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
