The mystery of The Apprentice's 'investment bankers'

Two of this year's crop of would-be apprentices to Sir Alan Sugar can claim the title of 'investment banker' - or so we're led to believe

PR firm Taylor Herring has confirmed that neither Chris Bates nor Liz Locke is an investment banker - both simply worked at investment banks.
