Cue the bragging: Sir Alan Sugar is back at the helm of the British version of The Apprentice, ready to put 18 new entrepreneurs to the test. Season 18 candidates include two sets of doctors and a pie king.

Read on to find out how to watch "The Apprentice" Season 18 online for free, streaming from anywhere with a VPN.

Like a rat in the sack, the thrill of watching a rogue trying to bluff and bluster his way to Lord Sugar's £250,000 investment never gets old. Most of this year's candidates have testified that they have not done one wrong step in their professional lives, which bodes well from an audience perspective.

Some of the more eye-catching details include Dr. Asif Munaf's previous appearance on "Dragon's Den" (Britain's answer to "Shark Tank"), sales executive Oliver Medforth's insistence that he has never and will never lift a finger unless there is some benefit to him and that management consultant Steve Durken has had his film screened at the Cannes Film Festival.

But how will they fare under the relentless gaze of camera crews and Karren Brady? Read our guide below on how to watch "The Apprentice" Season 18 online and from anywhere in the world.

Traveling in a country where BBC iPlayer is not available? With the right VPN (Virtual Private Network), you can access your usual platform and continue watching your favorite programs online, no matter where you are in the world.

We evaluated many options, but the best VPN is ExpressVPN, which meets the VPN needs of the majority of users, offering excellent compatibility with most devices and blazing connection speeds. It is also reasonably priced at $12.95 per month. (The cost drops even further to as low as $6.67 with a 6-month or 1-year long-term contract.)

Using the VPN is surprisingly simple.

1. install the VPN of your choice. As we have mentioned, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. select the location you want to connect to with the VPN app. For example, if you are in the US and want to see UK services, select UK from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the show; go to BBC iPlayer and stream the new episodes of "The Apprentice" season 18 online.

The UK version of "The Apprentice" is one of dozens of international versions of the show first popularized by Donald Trump, and thus the UK series has not expanded beyond the UK.

However, if you are a Brit traveling abroad, there is a way to connect to BBC iPlayer from anywhere and stream hit shows like "The Apprentice" U.K. season 18 online wherever you are. All you need is a VPN, such as ExpressVPN.
