A bargain buying challenge that lead several candidates to admit they couldn’t read a map has left audiences in hysterics at home.

On this week’s episode Lord sent everyone to Brighton with the aim of securing nine items synonymous with the area.

The aim of the challenge was to see how many items each team can get, while also trying to buy the items at the best price and within the time limit.

However, before they’d even started, when it came to choosing the team leaders many people put their hand up as usual.

But nearly all decided to disclose that they might face some problems when navigating the city, considering they couldn’t actually read the paper maps they were given.

Upon hearing this many people watching on at home couldn’t help but judge the millennials.

However, many others also said the comments made them feel ‘old’ for knowing how to read the apparently perplexing paper guides.

The teams also had some trouble figuring out what some of the items were, especially the Saharan desert rose.

While they understandably thought it was a flower, several calls and visits to florists left them stumped when they were also met with confusion.

It turns out the item they actually needed was a formation of crystal clusters.

The Apprentice airs Thursdays at 9pm on BBC One.
