The Apprentalist

New business-themed-reality-TV-gameshow-come-mental-health-initiative for BBC1, following the granting of emergency powers to Lord Sugar under the new Mental Health (Restraining Orders) Act 2010, passed through hastily-scheduled all-night sittings of the Houses of Parliament. Each week, a motley collection of hyper-excitable and pathologically earnest wannabe business bell-ends, carefully screened for their unsuitability for social life in the modern world, are put through their business paces in the attempt to unearth who has the greatest business flair for business - and capacity to withstand MI6-unapproved levels of mental cruelty. Each week Lord Sugar calls the budding business bodies into his business boadroom, and gives them a good business talking to until he finally pushes one completely over the edge, at which point he tells them - "You're sectioned."
