THE Apprentice’s Tim Campbell has revealed his future on the show after stepping in for Claude Littner.
Tim, 45, won the first ever series of The Apprentice in 2005 before returning to the programme earlier this year as one of Lord Sugar’s advisors.

Tim was the show’s first winner but returned as one of Lord Sugar’s advisors for the last series
Tim stepped in at the eleventh hour after Claude – who has been part of the show since 2015 – injured his leg after falling off his electric bike in April last year.
The 73-year-old had to undergo 10 different surgeries and his injury was so bad doctors even considered amputating his leg at one point.
It meant Tim stepped in to work alongside Baroness Karen Brady in observing the candidates in the 2022 series and reporting back to Lord Sugar.
Fans loved seeing him back on the show, and many wondered if Tim would be back for the next series.
Speaking exclusively to The Celeb Report Online, Tim opened up about his return to the show, saying: “I have a huge love for the franchise, and huge respect for Lord Sugar and the production team.
“I stepped in because of a very unfortunate tragedy with regards to Claude and thankfully touch wood and everything he’s made a full recovery, and he is back 100 per cent.
“His legs all sorted and he’s there. So I’m always grateful for what I’ve done rather than worrying about what I’ll do next.
“So the show went very well. It got great reviews, it was a very popular series, and I’m very proud to have been a part of it.”
While Tim may not be returning to the show in the near future, he’s got a busy schedule ahead working on an education campaign around T-Levels.
Tim is a T-Level champion and is now part of ‘The T-Team’ – a group that is on a mission to raise awareness and highlight the benefits of T-levels; a new qualification designed with employers that combines both work and classroom study, and is equivalent to three A-levels.
As children across the country deal with GCSE results day today, Tim spoke about his excitement at being part of something new in the education sector that offers youngsters more options regarding their future careers.
He said: “I think what the beauty of T-levels does for me is that it combines an individual choice around a passion that you might have or an inkling towards an industry sector.
“So that can be something as probably more traditional like accounting, or now more nouveau like digital skills with some of the more traditional or perceived as vocational ends like healthcare, or construction.
“I think that’s a really important platform to give a young person, where they can be slightly more relaxed about where their next choice is going to lead them.

“And we know from our research with The Gatsby Foundation that if you take a T-level, you still have all of those options open to you afterwards.
“Because you can still go to university if you choose to. You can still go into the world of work if you don’t want to do any more academia, or you can go and take an apprenticeship.”
