The antiques market owner was sacked on Thursday’s episode after Lord Sugar said he “struggled” with the assignment, in which teams created a new preschool cartoon to present to industry experts.
It comes just days after Gregory was forced to apologize after it was revealed that his online marketplace ‘ebay for antiques’ stocked Nazi memorabilia.
Up for the challenge: This year’s field started with nine men and nine women who will do everything they can to impress Lord Sugar and his advisers Baroness Karren Brady, Tim Campbell and Claude Littner.
When Lord Sugar delivered his final damning verdict and dismissed Gregory, he said in the boardroom: ‘Gregory, by your own admission, you had problems with the assignment. In business you have to adapt. It is with regret, Gregory, that you are fired.
Speaking in the taxi after his dismissal, Gregory said: “I understand that Lord Sugar dismissed me because he felt I couldn’t adapt.
“However, I am determined to prove Lord Sugar wrong and show him why he should have been his next business partner.”

Controversy: Earlier this week, Gregory was forced to apologize after his online marketplace ‘ebay for antiques’ was revealed to be stocking Nazi memorabilia.
Speaking to MailOnline, Gregory apologized, explaining that “the item in question was sold by a third party.”
“I in no way condone or wish to seek to celebrate this abominable and shameful part of history and I apologize for any offense caused,” Gregory said in a statement to MailOnline.
“My online business is an antiques marketplace where independent sellers have a platform to sell a wide range of antiques, memorabilia, and the military from different periods of history.
