1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Job mission with Jones and Amanda.

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 2: Our next guest is the highly respected and equally feared

3
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 2: British billionaire and business magnet who has worn many hats

4
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:13,239
Speaker 2: throughout his life, but his current hat is the Big

5
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 2: Boss of Celebrity Apprentice Australia. Joining us now we're thrilled

6
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 2: to have him is Lord Alan Sugar.

7
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 1: Hello, Hello there.

8
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 3: He lovely that you are our first Lord that we've

9
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 3: ever had on the show. With that, Sir Elton John.

10
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 1: Really well, we've got eight hundred of them in England,

11
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,480
Speaker 1: but I don't know why they don't come to Australia.

12
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 2: How do you become a lord? How did you become

13
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 2: a lord?

14
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: Gordon Brown? The Prime Minister made me a lord for business,

15
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: you know, generally to become a business czar to assess

16
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: small businesses. Yeah, in the UK, because I read about you.

17
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 3: You started off selling aerials for cars, radio aerials for cars.

18
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 3: Now you're a billionaire Lord. How do I get some

19
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 3: of this action? How do I get to that?

20
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:07,399
Speaker 2: What happens in the middle bit?

21
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: Well, my uncle died and left me five hundred million pounds?

22
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 1: That was it? Really? Is that true? That was it? No?

23
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,639
Speaker 1: Is that joke? I share the British humor.

24
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, so comedy is not your bag, but that you're

25
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 3: a being there, so that's good.

26
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: Yeah.

27
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 2: So you didn't know any of the celebrities coming into this.

28
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 2: Did that make it easier for you or how different

29
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 2: was that?

30
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: No? I think it was actually actually it was an asset.

31
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: Now I'll tell you for why, because the thing is

32
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: is that if someone comes in to do the Celebrity

33
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: Apprentice and they are in awe of the so called

34
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 1: celebrities and a little cautious or not wishing to upset them,

35
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: or always always admired them and always loved them, I

36
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 1: didn't have a bloody clue any of them were right,

37
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: which kind of helped me really in the sense that

38
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,959
Speaker 1: this process is all about working on their business acumen

39
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: to see how much money they can raise for charity.

40
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: That's what it was all about. So there was no

41
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: favorites as far as I was concerned. Everybody was judged independently, individually,

42
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: and so it was somewhat of a Yeah, it was

43
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 1: an advantage. Apart from Ross Noble, of course, and now

44
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 1: I knew of him and I wondered what he was

45
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,399
Speaker 1: doing in Australia. I thought he was on I thought

46
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: he was on witness protection. But anyway, so.

47
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 3: Who would you be in Rosay? For example, Prince Harry

48
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,239
Speaker 3: is one of your apprentices. Would you sack him or

49
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 3: would you keep him on?

50
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,799
Speaker 1: Well, poor old Harry, I mean he's been getting a

51
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 1: lot of stick. I think he's a very nice, charming

52
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: young man. And let me leave it at that. I

53
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: don't want to be talking about his wife.

54
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 3: To be honest with him, Sure, sure, but say you

55
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 3: would you sack him or just would you have him

56
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 3: stick around?

57
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: Now? Why would I sack him? I don't know whether

58
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,799
Speaker 1: he'd come on to my show? What would he I mean?

59
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: I mean he's been in the Nave, always been in

60
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 1: the Army, he's been in the Air Force. So he's

61
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 1: obviously a resourceful chap. He's quite fit. So it depends

62
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: if he would if he would have passed, or the

63
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: all the issues that we put in front of these

64
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: people to make him actually raise some money. Could imagine

65
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: he raised a lot of money. Very much doubt, very

66
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: much doubt he would come on.

67
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 3: You became a billionaire in twenty fifteen. When you became

68
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 3: a billionaire, does someone say, hey, Lord Allan, you are

69
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 3: now a billionaire. Do you get like something from the bank,

70
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 3: Does something cool happen? What goes on there?

71
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: No? No, no, not really no. No, you don't get

72
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: a billionaire's badge. No. And the thing is, of course,

73
00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 1: there's a list published by the Sunday Times in England

74
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: about some of these people that are supposed to be

75
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 1: billionaires or whatever. And I think you have to take

76
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: a little bit of it, of a pinch of salt,

77
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 1: because my gauge on people is and I said this

78
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:16,480
Speaker 1: once to Piers Morgan when he was when he's comparing

79
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 1: me to Donald Trump. I said to them, well, look

80
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: I'll challenge Trump. I can write a checkout for one

81
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: hundred million pounds and it will get paid. Can he

82
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 1: do that? See? People talk about their wealth, but you

83
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,359
Speaker 1: know what is their wealth? It's their wealth. There is

84
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 1: their opinion on some of the assets that they think

85
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: they own, you know. So no, certainly I'm a billionaire

86
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 1: when it comes to Japanese yen, there's no question of that.

87
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: Maybe even a billionaire with Australian dollars and possibly you know,

88
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: a billionaire in US dollars, maybe in the UK. I'm

89
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 1: not quite there yet.

90
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm like a millionaire in Bali. Like with Rupiah,

91
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 3: I do very much. You think you track back, I

92
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 3: can't walk the streets.

93
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: About makes you feel good? Feel it does?

94
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,599
Speaker 3: It does well, Lord Alan Sugar, thank you for being

95
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 3: our first Lord. Catch The Celebrity Apprentice seven o'clock Sunday
