Apprentice Stars Reunited

Margaret Mountford and Nick Hewer

Margaret Mountford and Nick Hewer

Former stars of The Apprentice, Nick Hewer and Margaret Mountford are to be reunited next week, when the new host of Channel 4′s Countdown is joined by his old friend on the daytime show. This is welcome news. Nick’s presenting on Countdown has been so abysmal; reigniting the chemistry between him and his fellow Apprentice advisor may just make things a little less painful to watch. Margaret – who left The Apprentice to complete a PhD – will join Susie Dent in The Dictionary Corner for the whole of next week.
