Raising money for Children in Need, The Celebrity Apprentice returns to our screens for a 2 episode special this Christmas. 12 celebrities will head to Lapland to create a "magical festive biscuit" which will then need to be pitched to UK retailers. For the first time ever, the winner will actually be sold in UK stores with a percentage of biscuit sales going to Children in Need. Lord Sugar, Baroness Brady and Mike Soutar return to the show.

Honestly when I saw the promo image for this it made me think that having Mike as a permanent aide alongside Sugar and Karen would be amazing

Mike has always been great in the interviews episodes so I think he'll be a good addition in Tim's absence

Mike did actually fill in for Tim once. It was the infamous "First Time Dies" episode from 2022.

Having the winning product be sold in the shops is very interesting. I know they can't incorporate something like that so easily with the normal show but it would be interesting.

I really liked the celeb specials they had a few years ago, I hope this lives up to them.

12 celebrities prepare to launch their festive biscuits nationwide, raising money for BBC Children in Need

The line-up has been announced - fairly standard names for this sort of show. Tom Skinner is back.

More Sarah Hadland

Wonder if Legend from Gladiators going for this means he probably won’t do Strictly? 🤔 (if they do continue with signing one up every year)
