Series chronology

The sixteenth series of British reality television series The Apprentice (UK) was broadcast in the UK on BBC One, between 6 January to 24 March 2022. Production of the series had originally been planned for Spring 2020, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, was postponed by a year by the BBC, who aired six special compilation episodes, featuring highlights from previous series, between 1 October to 5 November 2020. Due to a serious bicycle accident, Claude Littner was replaced by Tim Campbell, the winner of the first series, as Lord Sugar's aide.

Sixteen candidates took part in the sixteenth series, with Harpreet Kaur becoming the overall winner. Excluding specials, the series averaged around 7.08 million viewers during its broadcast.
