Baroness Karren Brady, Lord Alan Sugar and Tim Campbell MBE pose to the camera in front of the London skyline in a promotional image for 'The Apprentice' season 19.

The U.K. version of "The Apprentice" is back for its 19th run, as another bunch of hopefuls take on each other and the boardroom to try and win Lord Alan Sugar's approval and a £250,000 investment. Here's how you can watch "The Apprentice" season 19 online around the world and from anywhere with a VPN, plus free streaming options.

'The Apprentice' U.K. season 19 streaming details, release date

"The Apprentice" season 19 goes out on Thursdays at 9 p.m. GMT from January 30
• FREE STREAM — BBC iPlayer (U.K.)
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN risk-free

Among those trying to impress Lord Sugar and his advisors Baroness Karren Brady and Tim Campbell MBE this year are a pizza mogul, hair transplant consultant, cosmetic dentist and assorted other entrepreneurs — all hoping to avoid the immortal words: "You're fired".

Challenging them will be tasks as varied as creating a virtual popstar, flogging fruit and veg, designing Easter Eggs, and marketing corporate hospitality products in Turkey. Not forgetting the classic discount buying task, this year in Stratford-upon-Avon, home of William Shakespeare.

After failing to style it out in the fashion brand task, two more candidates catwalked out of the series (you can see who's already been eliminated in the candidates list at the bottom of this article). That leaves a final five who must face Lord Sugar's panel of tough interviewers, including Claudine Collins, Claude Littner, Linda Plant and Mike Soutar.

It's television's toughest job interview and only one person will be left standing after 12 gruelling weeks. Read on and discover how you can watch "The Apprentice" season 19 online and from anywhere in the world — including for free.

How to watch 'The Apprentice' from anywhere in the world

If you're traveling overseas and "The Apprentice" season 19 isn't airing where you're currently located, that doesn't mean you have to miss the show while you're away from home. With the right VPN (virtual private network), you can stream the show from wherever you are.

We've evaluated many options, and the best VPN you can get right now is NordVPN. It meets the VPN needs of the vast majority of users, offering outstanding compatibility with most devices and impressive connection speeds. You can try it risk-free for 30 days if you take advantage of NordVPN's no-quibble money-back guarantee.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple:

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're a Brit abroad and want to view the BBC stream, you'd select a U.K. server from the location list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the show. Head to BBC iPlayer and stream new episodes of "The Apprentice" season 19 online.

Can I watch 'The Apprentice' U.K. in the U.S, Canada, Australia or elsewhere?

The U.K. iteration of "The Apprentice" is one of 30+ international versions of the show that was first popularized by Donald Trump in U.S. The British show starring Lord Alan Sugar, however, doesn't air beyond the borders of Blighty. So it won't be readily available for viewers in the U.S., Canada or Australia.

However, if you're U.K. citizen travelling abroad, there's still a way to connect to BBC iPlayer from anywhere and stream hit shows like "The Apprentice" online no matter where you are. All you need is a VPN such as NordVPN — full instructions above.
