Raleigh Addington

"I'm ruthless, even in Monopoly"[1][2]

Raleigh Addington, 22, will be a candidate on series six of The Apprentice. He is an unemployed graduate who coached tennis after graduating with a degree in Economics and Politics from Exeter university[1] (whilst at Exeter University, he donated a million pounds to the fundraising department and demonstrated his adventurous aspect by moving to China during his gap year). He is inspired by John Cadbury (of Cadbury's) and claims to be "enthusiastic, friendly and ambitious". He is originally from Swindon[2]

When it was revealed that his team had lost, Raleigh furiously pleaded to Lord Sugar that he fire the project manager in the following rampage: "I was let down yesterday by a team leader who was like a bull in a china shop. He crashes into people, he was so thuggish with other members of his team. He just shouts at us. He was always looking over my shoulder. It wasn't fair... it was shameful."[2] This rampage gained significant attention on The Apprentice: You're Fired!.

The next week, Addington walked out of the show after it was divulged that his army captain brother was injured in Afghanistan[3].
