Those tuning in to the latest episode of The Apprentice were left disappointed moments into the show.
Once again, the BBC One show started with a call being made to the candidates house, signalling they needed to be ready sharpish for their next task.
The group were whisked off to Mercato Metropolitano to meet Lord Alan Sugar to be given their alcohol-free drink challenge.
But there was soon an announcement for him.
Shama Amin, 41, had to tell the businessman that she was leaving the race for his investment due to medical reasons.
Addressing Lord Sugar, Shama said: "I suffer from a condition called rheumatoid arthritis.
"Due to medial reasons and the process being so physically demanding, despite all the efforts the whole team has made, I've had to make the difficult decision to leaver the process.
"I'd just like to thank you so much for this opportunity."
Lord Sugar replied: "Well, Shama, I'm really sad to hear that. I wish you and your family all the best for the future."
And The Apprentice fans were sad to see her go.
@MuriosaHouston tweeted: "Omg not Shama , she was my winner #TheApprentice."
"I can’t cope with Shama leaving. I’m devastated! #TheApprentice," @harrisonjbrock shared.
@bodders1999 said: "Can’t believe Shama has left. She was my winner from ep1! #TheApprentice."
"No way Shama left just before the NON ALCOHOLIC DRINKS task she would’ve smashed it #TheApprentice," @abbaas__ cried.
But those watching the show also made an observation.
@corriepodcast tweeted: "Poor Shama. Get's up at 4am, rushes to get ready in 30 minutes, travels across That London, and then quits. Could've got another couple of hours in bed and the same outcome. #TheApprentice."
"No bcs why did they make shama get up at the crack of dawn to announce her leaving, should’ve let her rest and let lord sugar announce it for the show #TheApprentice," @ughseokk wrote.
@btchimaboss said: "Shama when the producers told her she still had to get up at 3am and go to the briefing just to leave #TheApprentice."
"Oh no! Imagine her having to get up at 4am to stand up for 3 hours waiting for Lord Sir Alan to say you are leaving #TheApprentice couldn't she have done a VT?" @emmajane37 added.
