The Apprentice is back for another season of entrepeneurs battling it out to become next business partner. The BBC show sees one contestant win the expert's £250,000 investment and mentorship.

Alongside his trusted advisors Baroness and Tim Campbell MBE, the 77-year-old star eliminates contestants one by one from the boardroom with the dreaded words: "You're Fired!"

One contestant who didn't meet the business tycoon's standards was . The mortgage broker was on the BBC show last year when she was booted off in a brutal double sacking.

Now, speaking about what it was like to work with Lord Sugar, Raj exclusively admitted to Express.co.uk that a lot of what he says is "cut from the edit". She shared that the TV star often makes "dirty jokes" and "swears" - but it doesn't make the show.

When asked what he's like in real life, the former contestant explained: "Honestly, he's exactly how he's on TV. The only thing I was more surprised about was how many dirty jokes he tells and how much he swears. But it doesn't make the edit."

She added: "He would make jokes about condom machines and sanitary things and I would just be thinking 'oh my god, like, even if you know it, pretend you don't'.

"But I do love that about Lord sugar. I like the fact that he's the old school businessman.

"So yeah, he's exactly how you see on TV. But he's also really lovely as well. You can also tell who his favorites are."

Raj also shared that when the day comes for Lord Sugar to retire, she could be the one to fill his shoes in the boardroom at the helm of the show.

She said: "I can't think of anyone better than myself. I don't think there would be anybody.

"I think I should take the place. I think I would if, as long as the producers give me free rein, I'll say as it is and how it should be said. I can't think of anyone better than myself."
