An idea: The Apprentice - for Professionals
Post Body

So i have watched the majority of the Apprentice 'saga' and get the feeling it is rapidly going downhill. The tasks they need to complete are just silly, and the time they have isn't fair either.

As well as this, it also seems that the candidates are getting weaker and weaker as the seasons progress.

To remedy this, I thought Alan Sugar could make just one series which instead of young 'entrepreneurs', he has actual accomplished and experienced professionals, such as Richard Branson, Levi Roots, Bill Gates etc etc.

They would do the same sort of tasks as before, they would have no special treatment, they still need to go and stand in public and sell, still have to sit across from Alan in the boardroom, stab each other in the back, and get fired as Alan sees fit.

I think this would be a great way to show whether the normal candidates on the apprentice are just not worthy of being successful, or whether the tasks are just stupid.

There could be some problems with favoritism within groups, or being scared of losing business with one another, but if done properly, for fun and science instead of making a profit, this could work wonders and be a real joy to watch. Just imagine all the fights and comments that will be thrown around in a room full of successful men/women who all want to be the Alpha.

It would also need to show uncut scenes, none of the rubbish edited stuff where they leave out all the best parts.

Just my thoughts, anyone else have an opinion on this matter?

TL;DR : An Apprentice series full of well-known successful business people!
