The Apprentice's Raef Bjayou to become TV presenter

Reality TV star will join Richard and Judy on their new show

Tuesday, 15 July 2008

Raef Bjayou will join Richard Madeley and Judy Finnegan as a reporter when their show moves to digital channel Watch this autumn.

The Apprentice loser impressed the chat show legends when he appeared on their Channel 4 show last month.

‘Raef is thrilled with the Richard and Judy deal,’ a source tells the Sunday Mirror.

‘He’s never shied away from the fact that The Apprentice launched his career, but he's keen to carve out an name for himself as a presenter, not just a reality TV star.’

Richard, 52, says he is really impressed with his new co-host’s presenting abilities and predicts big things for him.

‘Raef said his real ambition was to be a talk show host so we took him up on it and invited him onto our programme for a live audition,’ he says.

‘Raef’s report was hilarious – the guy’s a natural. Expect to see more of him in the future.’

This will be his second TV venture – the 27-year-old has also signed up for The Underdog Show on Living TV.
