I won The Apprentice and the scariest part of the show is NOT Alan Sugar reveals Tim Campbell
APPRENTICE star Tim Campbell has revealed the worst part of the hit programme.
Before joining Lord Sugar and Baroness Karren Brady on the panel this year Tim acturally took part in the first series and won.
Tim, 45, said: “The scariest part of the whole process is when you walk into the room first and you see everybody else you’re competing against.
“Up until that point, you don’t know who’s in the room.”
The businessman added to The Mirror: “In The Apprentice there’s a lot of that first bit of unknown thing where you walk into the boardroom waiting area, and you look around and go ‘Oh my gosh’, everyone is suited and booted to the nines and they’re all ready to challenge and compete against you.”
