A businessman who shot to fame on The Apprentice has swapped the boardroom for the markets of a Sussex town.

Thomas Skinner, who was fired by Sir Alan Sugar during the BBC show’s quarterfinals in 2019, is “grafting” at Worthing markets in Montague Street today.

Videos posted on Skinner's social media platforms show the 31-year-old stopping off at the town’s McDonalds for a double egg and sausage McMuffin before heading to the markets to sell his wares, including Winnie the Pooh merchandise and candles.

The entrepreneur encouraged residents to “pop and say hello” and grab a "bargain".
