Sacked 'Apprentice' contestant Adam Hosker launched a stinging attack on rival Katie Hopkins after being fired by Sir Alan Sugar.
Hosker, 28, a former car sales manager from Blackburn said Hopkins, 31, dismissed multi-millionaire Sugar as thick.
He said many of the candidates, including Hopkins, did not actually want the prized job with the Amstrad tycoon but were simply using the BBC1 show to get publicity for their own businesses.
Hosker was booted out of 'The Apprentice' on his record fourth consecutive appearance in the boardroom after his team failed their latest task.
Hopkins, 31, rounded on Hosker after blaming him for the departure of Paul Callaghan, 27, the man she was having a fling with.
"Katie is a complete and utter snob. She was offended at my northernness and my working class background.
"She didn't think I had any right to be there. She sees me and Kristina (Grimes) as a threat. Kristina because she's Irish and me because I'm northern.
"Katie thinks Sir Alan is thick. She told me that in the car on the way back from a task. She doesn't rate Sir Alan, she's there to publicise herself."
