APPRENTICE star Thomas Skinner is to swap the boardroom for ballroom after signing to appear in this year’s series of Strictly Come Dancing.
The Cockney entrepreneur, 34 — known for his catchphrase “Bosh!” — was first introduced to viewers on Lord Alan Sugar’s show in 2019.
He also won fans over when he starred on Celebrity Masterchef in 2020, and with his social media content.
A source said yesterday: “Thomas hasn’t any dancing experience, but he’s up for giving the competition his best shot.
“Strictly bosses are hoping he’ll get the dads watching. He has a massive following, especially with working-class blokes.
“He’s a huge football fan and enjoys pies and gravy. He’s not a luvvie at all.
“He’s bound to get his catchphrase ‘Bosh’ on to the show, too."
Thomas, who has three kids with wife Sinéad, was asked previously about appearing on the BBC1 dance show.
He said: “My mum loves it, she’d love me to do that.”
And he recently underwent a body transformation, shedding weight and bulking up in the gym.
A spokeswoman for Strictly declined to comment.
