The 30-year-old presenter is a huge fan of the business reality show so he's thrilled to have landed a spot in the men's team in the upcoming two-part special for Comic Relief.

He said: "As a massive fan of 'The Apprentice', I can't wait to experience it from the other side of the screen as a candidate. I probably won't be saying that for long though!"

Rylan will be joined on his team by Omid Djalili, Russell Kane, Richard Arnold, and Sam Allardyce but comic Russell doesn't fancy their chances.

He said: "Watching us try and work together will probably be pant-wettingly funny and I'm sure I'll cringe watching it back, but it's going to be a unique experience and all in the name of an amazing cause."

The quintet will be facing off against a female team of Ayda Field, Amanda Holden, Kelly Hoppen, Tameka Empson and Rachel Johnson and the women are feeling much more confident.

Amanda said: "I'm ready to take a step away from the judging panel to compete, and I'm thrilled to be taking part. I'm sure the girls' team will be victorious!"

Ayda added: "I'm thrilled to be part of this year's Celebrity Apprentice for Comic Relief. I've always been a fan of the show and I can't wait to take on the boys to raise some money for an incredible cause!"

The teams - who will be watched by Lord Alan Sugar's assistants Baroness Karren Brady and Claude Littner - will be tasked to raise as much money as possible by planning a themed cabaret night.

Briefing the stars, Lord Sugar tells them: "We are all here for one reason, to raise money for Comic Relief.

"Entertainment is big business, all you people should know that, so with that in mind your task is going to be to organise and host a cabaret night."

The 'Celebrity Apprentice' special will air on March 7 and 8.
