Apprentice candidate Ben Clarke is reportedly already planning how to make a name for himself in the media after leaving the show.

Ben is lucky to have survived on the show so far, and knowing that his days are numbered, the stockbroker arranged a dinner date with last year’s contestants Claire Young and Raef Bjayou.

An onlooker told the Daily Star Sunday: “You’d think he would have been more discreet – but he has a loud voice and everyone could hear him. Ben told Claire, who was famous for being tough and no-nonsense: ‘I want to be like you. I want to be the new Rottweiler’.

“And he was asking Raef how he got on other things like The Underdog Show. He pumped them for info about how to make his fame last.”

The difference between Claire, Raef and Ben is that Raef and Claire will be remembered as nice, decent yet memorable characters. Ben is just plain annoying and really quite stupid, his chance at achieving a TV career after the BBC reality TV show ends is hopefully slim to none!
