Celebrity Apprentice: Sam Allardyce, Rylan Clark-Neal and Ayda Williams join line-up for new BBC series

The latest group of celebrities facing Lord Sugar in the Apprentice boardroom has been announced.

Sugar will be joined by aides Karren Brady and Claude Littner for a money-raising Comic Relief special that'll air on 7 and 8 March.

Candidates, including TV personalities Amanda Holden and Ryan Clark-Neal and ex-football manager Sam Allardyce, will face off in a task that'll see them organising and hosting a cabaret night.

Scroll through the below gallery to find out which celebrities are taking part.

Comic Relief's first edition of Celebrity Apprentice occurred back in 2007. It culminated in the firing of Piers Morgan who went on to win the US version hosted by Donald Trump one year later.

The regular version of The Apprentice returns to BBC One later this year following a successful 14th series that saw Sian Gabbidon crowned Lord Sugar's latest business partner.
