'The Apprentice' gets spoofed in Lego

Internet animators Boleg Bros have created parodies of BBC One reality show The Apprentice.

The clips, in which all characters are 3-D animated Lego figures, show series four contestants arguing their case in the boardroom with Sir Alan Sugar, Margaret Mountford and Nick Hewer.

The shorts are dubbed over with the voices from the programme to recreate the firings of Nicholas De Lacy Brown and Shazia Wahab.

In the week one clip, barrister Nicolas argues his case in the boardroom after the boys' team lose the fish-selling task. After being dismissed by Sir Alan, he is hit on the head with a frying pan by Margaret Mountford.

The second clip, which culminates in the sacking of Shazia after the dry cleaning task failure, is accompanied by Bernard Herrmann's Psycho score. The Apprentice: You're Fired host Adrian Chiles also appears in the clip asking about his missing laundry.
