Salesman breezes into next round of Apprentice

CHIRPY SALESMAN Lee McQueen has again survived the chop in the BBC reality show The Apprentice.

Mr McQueen, from Princes Risborough, breezed through the episode.

He was a key part of the winning team and has not yet faced the boardroom showdown with Sir Alan Sugar.

Speaking from the famous Wallace collection Sir Alan set the teams a task of photographing customers in the Bluewater large shopping centre.

A David Beckham look-a-like proved to be a massive crowd puller and attracted a lot of business for the Alpha team, which Mr McQueen was part of.

He revelled in being a photographer, chatting with enthusiasm to parents and their kids, but as in recent weeks kept a relatively low profile to steer clear of trouble.

Mr McQueen's team were clear winners making a profit of £145.

Team Renaissance, who went with a glamour theme, made a loss of £73.

Former military man Simon Smith, the losing project leader, got the boot in a tense finale.

Mr McQueen will be trying to prove his worth to the Amstrad tycoon again next week when the candidates are faced with an ice-cream making challenge.

What did you make of Lee's performance in tonight's episode? What do you think of his chances of making it to the finish line?
