Former Apprentice star Raef Bjayou has revealed that he turned down the chance to appear on Big Brother.
The series four contestant claimed that he was offered "Big Brother-based" work after losing out on a job with Sir Alan Sugar last year.
"I've got a terrific agent who bats away a lot of stuff," Bjayou told Digital Spy."Most of it was Big Brother-based.
"I've batted them away on a professional basis. Just because I eventually want to do serious documentary piece-to-camera work. I desperately try to do everything, fun and serious, but I've been told in no uncertain terms that you can't pull off both in the media."
He joked: "Sir Trevor McDonald can't tell us about some horrific crime that's taken place and then be seen on that hilarious show Hole In The Wall.
"It's a shame because we'd all love to see Sir Trev in a leotard trying to go through some unusual shapes. But there we go, we can't have everything!"
