Sport Relief Does The Apprentice
|
No-nonsense self-made millionaire Sir Alan Sugar is set to test
the business skills of ten top celebrity candidates from the
world of media, sport, politics and comedy in a special Sport
Relief Does The Apprentice that will be broadcast on Wednesday
12 and Friday 14 March on 91热爆 One as part of the Sport Relief
Weekend.
听
Viewers will have a chance to see the famous faces work their
socks off over two gruelling days to raise as much cash as
possible for Sport Relief, under the watchful eyes of Sir Alan's
trusty aides, Nick Hewer and Margaret Mountford.
听
The celebrities are divided into two teams, the Girls and the
Boys. Each team is given an empty identical adjoining West End
store.
听
Their task is to come up with a name, and then to stock
their shop with fabulous items that they think will make them the
highest profit.
听
They then have to take to the shop floor where
they have to convince the rich and famous to buy up their stock
for the most money possible.
听
The Girls team of Clare Balding, Lisa Snowdon, Jacqueline Gold,
Kirstie Allsopp and Louise Redknapp take on the Boys team of Phil
Tufnell, Lembit Opik MP, Kelvin MacKenzie, Hardeep Singh Kohli and
Nick Hancock.
听
If they fail, their celebrity status won't save
them from the wrath of Sir Alan, but either way a star-studded
fight to the finish is guaranteed as they battle not to be the
one to hear those fateful words: "You're fired".
