Wales lockdown: Apprentice winner Alana Spencer to open cafe - but date could be a 'nightmare'

Apprentice winner Alana Spencer is set to open a new desserts cafe by the sea - but her timing could not be any worse.

The Apprentice champion took on a former well known fish restaurant in Aberystwyth and has transformed it into a mecca for desserts.

Her planned opening date is 10am this Friday.

This is the same date Welsh Government is expected to today announce a circuit breaker lockdown for Wales will start.

Alana posted on Twitter: "Finished and ready to open on Friday! Isn’t she pretty?!

"At least Friday isn’t the start date of a circuit break or anything as that would be a total nightmare!"

She added: "Whatever happens I’m grateful to everyone who’s helped make it happen and what will be will be."

Alana won the hit BBC show in 2016 - securing a joint investment from Alan Sugar.
