Comic Relief Does The Apprentice (also known as The Celebrity Apprentice for Comic Relief) is a special celebrity version of British reality television series The Apprentice, initially produced to raise money for Comic Relief.[2][3] The first edition aired in March 2007. In 2008, the same format was broadcast until the title Sport Relief Does The Apprentice. Each series involves five male and five female celebrities competing in a single Apprentice task.

Just weeks before the show aired in early 2007, it was spoofed in the television programme Kombat Opera Presents The Applicants.[4]
