Cheeky chappy Tom became an instant hit with Apprentice fans when he appeared on the show in 2019, thanks to his “Delboy” style approach to business tasks.

Born in Romford, streetwise Tom often boasts that his business career started with a paper round when he was 12 before he began trading on London’s markets at the age of 16.

Tom has had various successful business endeavours, including Bosh Beds and The Fluffy Pillow Company, and has kept up his TV appearances too. After guesting on Celebrity Masterchef in 2020, he became an online meme for delivering the line, “I don’t get nervous, but I’m starting to get a little bit shaky, if you know what I mean”.
