Stella English has been named the winner of The Apprentice, beating Chris Bates in the final.

English, 31, was told "you're hired" by Lord Sugar after a task in which she and Bates, 23, created and marketed a new brand of alcoholic drink.

The pair led teams made up of former contestants to choose flavours, design a bottle and film an advert before pitching their product.

English had been the head of business management at a Japanese bank.
